Time to go

Looked so long, literally on top on it in term of the map but guess you got to have your first DNF at some point

DNF spent quite while here couldn't find it

I found it

Taking the opportunity to pick up a few caches in the area after attending the Blue Switch Day event in Whiteman Park. This was one that I stopped off at. Establishment was closed so both a good & bad thing: good as easy to park up and make the find; bad as I still haven't timed a drive past for when it's open to try it out! Cache was a nice quick find, although not in the first place I checked! TFTC

Quick find in a busy location! Found with Geogypsys! Tftc

An easy find on another day caching with Schnappy96

Can’t find it where it is supposed to be

Nice hide and quick find on Good Friday 2022.

Out for another day of caching with BJA3.

Cache & log in good condition,  TFTC!

It took a while but we manage d to find it

Woohoo, finally got this one. Was looking in the old location last time. Quick find today at the correct coords.
Dropped past after a Christmas in July lunch in the valley. TFTC

Left work early for a spot of caching on the way home.
First attempt this back in 2016 ans still none the wiser

Today we headed out for another caching adventure for some practice before WAGB. Hopefully Kapelula , Meme28 and I can can have a good run and not get to wet as we have puzzles and other caches we are looking forward to collecting today. We found your cache today in good condition thanks for the adventure. Logged as MIK

After a lengthy search at the wrong place we trusted the GPS and found the cache quickly. TFTH!

Decided on a days caching last week with I C Nothing and Meme28 before we knew the weather. Thought we would go ahead despite the rain and weather warning. Some logs signed as MIK.

hey

Can’t find

Dont think its on the grapes or at new coordinates-but could be blind

Great stop for a coffee

Coordinates changed to:

Distance from original: 47.9 feet or 14.6 meters.

After visiting GZ and extending our reach we found 3 nanos in play, 2 that have been placed as throw downs and the original that we placed. If you are having trouble with a cache please do not just replace it unless you have checked with the CO. We have moved this cache and the type of hide to prevent this happening here again

Will check this cache when we return but do suspect it's still there, it's a very small cache to find on a very big structure

###Cache Owner Action Needed###
This cache has been brought to my attention as likely to be missing.
After a string of successful Finds, it has now had a string of DNFs. I agree that this certainly suggests that something has happened at the cache location which requires investigation by the CO.

The cache will be disabled and I'll check back in 4 weeks to see if either

- the CO has checked or rectified the apparent problem
- the CO has communicated in a Note log here, when action will be taken

**If the CO has not taken either of these actions, then we can only assume that the cache has been abandoned and, regrettably, it will be archived.**

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Thank you

Could not fine it, maybe add a hit

Was a shame I could find it but I was those were real grapes

Couldn’t find it

No luck today

Had a look but could not find this one!

Tricky one but a fun one

Best find yet

Great spot

Find #544. Got up at 5.30 am on Australia Day to find all the Ellenbrook caches. Now off to Dome for Aussie Day Breakfast. Oi Oi Oi. TFTC.

Found with Team Cambo but forgot to log at the time. TFTC

Found with Kittyangel35. TFTC

Lost count how many attempts today with help and found it hooray to signed off... Thanks for the cache and hide

Hunting around for awhile & second guessing the obvious but SAL came through! TFTC - What a great day in the valley!

After a great deal of hunting (probably should not have gone to the gin tasting first) .....found this with Shellfish 34. Thanks from this Canadian cacher!

Out and about caching with the nightmare geo-baby and Ooh Yeh this beautiful sunny Saturday, in the swan valley and surrounds. Nice quick find here at this awesome sculpture. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC

The Better Half and I came north of the river for a caching trip to accumulate some more close together finds for the Mystery at the Museum.

Once we ignored where the GPS said to look and focused on the more obvious object it was a quick find by me as the Better Half looked on.

Log signed and cache returned as found.

Thanks to the CO for placing this cache for us to find.

Very trick little nano. How we love nanos ! Nice bunch.TFTC

Found it 28/7 couldn’t log till now. No pen, photo attached

2nd search. Had luck this time

Great spot

Find 12 of 22 with one DNF and one Could Not Look on a bitterly cold bike ride around Ellenbrook and Aveley. Excellent entertainment mostly sponsored by Parkacruz again. We will miss our Ellenbrook trips if we ever finish these caches off!

Approached GZ but had to hang back as a young family were checking out the grapes. Eventually we realised they were signing something - a log book, haha. That meant we didn't have to pretend any more. Nice to meet the GeldardWildlings in the field. With their help it was an easy find

TFTC parkacruz!

Found it on the sign and joined it back to the bunch thanks for the find

Not here

Short search due to muggles but spider watch me (see pic)

Up in the area today for the event and edging my way to the last souvenir.
Grabbing a cache here and there.

Thanks heaps to parkacruz for placing and maintaining A Great Big Bunch. I found your cache today. I added my name to the log and replaced where I found it.

Tftc

Thanks a bunch!

Found it!

Quick stop here and a nice park and grab. TFTC

Nice quick park and grab tftc!

Out and about tfth

Out for a quick evening caching run. Got 3/4 which isn’t a bad effort. The fifth couldn’t be attempted due to muggles (again).

Thanks for some evening fun.

Didn’t read anything here and started groping the grapes which just didn’t seem right. Changed my tune and made a quick find!

Quick find but there was nothing way I was going to budge the logbook. Photo attached as evidence of my find. Tftc

Tftc doing a few on our swan valley trip

Out for the day with Tessplus3 TFTC #16/19 so far TFTC

Out on the hunt for the elusive hidden creature, World Turtle, today with UMeHedgie. 27 to go.

I will give you a sign

A nice quick find. The proprietor of the nearby business was curious about geocaching. An explanation and she is more than happy with the placement.
Out and about in Ellenbrook and surrounds grabbing caches to try and get the Hidden Creatures souvenir.

TFTC parkacruz this is find # 4862 for us.

Thanks to PP2 for replacing the log here and the chat and coffee

PP1s gps is not very accurate today but mine led me staight to the prize. We replaced the log because it was full. We have the old one, next time we bump into you. TFTC parkacruz

Tried so hard but no where to be found. Even the property owner tried to help with no luck.

With not too much caching done by us recently we decided to rectify that and made plans to head north and cache our way towards the Swan Valley area. We left home nice and early and collected this cache along the way. Cheers and TFTC.

G’day there parkacruz, I was in this area today and found your cache A Great Big Bunch GC6MM5Z. I added my name to the log book at 1:46 pm on 3 June 2018. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

This cache find brings our total find count to 9683. Woohoo!!

Had a good look but sadly DNF

Easy find. TFTC.

Easy find

It was an interesting find very clever thank you

Nice quick find, TFTC!

I query whether you sought permission to hide this cache. Despite it being 7:30am, I was approached by two of the owners, one walking down to place advertising flags on the road and another driving out in her car, about what I was doing. I was thankfully where my GPSr was pointing, which was the metal sign, rather than where I actually found the nano, which is surely even more on private property than the sign. Agreed, it's a great big bunch.

Edit: Notification from CO that permission was sought before placement.

TFTC

The works on the cache site have been completed

We are temporarily disabling this cache as construction work is being carried out

What a fantastic bunch... TFTC

Good Geocache! Look close at the grapes

Was quite surprised to find this quickly given the structure it was on. TFTC Parkacruz

Grape hiding spot

Acquired the goods!

Found it, great spot look closely guys!

Love it! Thanks

Found and signed the log.

After a few hours of caching around Ellenbrook, we were headed in the direction of home when this cache popped up... We have driven past before, but the area was deserted so we just had to stop for a quick look A quick look it was... And found in the first spot we looked!

Out and about to check our caches today, happy to say the cache is still in place and excellent condition

Strike 2 for me. Bit too much foliage covering GZ to do an extensive hunt. Will try again another day. Last time I searched the sign as that's where the coords point. The grapes are 8m away at .727s .832e.

We went down to check this AGAIN today after a log stating "needs maintenance" the cache is STILL very much there, you just need to look harder

My second attemps and no luck for me so DNF

We could not find this one today

We went down to check this cache after the recent DNF and it's still there, it has been moved from the original position but the location is still the same, it's still a very easy find. Happy hunting
