Found it after a bit of help from a friend. Need good eyes to spot it. Love this museum. Check out their WW1 room of memorabilia collected.
On our way to Geralton with Mistraluna, to have couple of days full of caching and good weather and fun. This one proved to be a challenge we did not succeed in, but nevertheless we both enjoyed the climb 
Headed off early this morning, trying to beat the early peak hour madness on the Kwinana Freeway. Who would have thought that it would be bumper to bumper, stop/start, all the way from south of Anketell right through Cockburn Central to Berrigan Drive at 6.15 in the morning? Crazy! Lots us people must be wetting their beds or something, lol.
Anyway, the plan was to pick up Eliktrisiti in Malaga and head northwards for a bit of a roadtrip. A little backtracking had to be done to pick up a recently solved ~Tango~ puzzle, then it was time to hit the road. Went up the Brand Highway for a change, zigzagging backwards and forwards as we continued northwards to Dongara and then Greenough to where we were staying. Grand adventure it was too.
This was one that we stopped for in the afternoon. Talk about the proverbial needle in a haystack!! Too many other caches were beckoning so we had a quick clamber around, enjoyed it immensely, but couldn't justify spending too long up there. Another time perhaps. Thanks anyway...

Phoned a previous hider who confirmed this cache was indeed missing. Contacted the co and asked permission to replace. We didn't hear back, so we hope it's okay! Great tree! Great name. TFTC bellaandmarguerite
What a beautiful tree, i climb here, i climbe there, but i can't find it. Greetings from Switzerland.
Started looking near the seat found a log book torn up, thought that's no good kept on looking and then found a cache with and old piece of paper in it, so I put the torn up log which I signed with the old log. This tin had fishing line wrapped around it, so maybe not the newest one
YAY.This cache is back on line. Please log your DNF as well as your finds so that we know when the cache is missing.
We will try to fix as soon as possible. Please be careful when you place the gecache back to its exact position.
Haven't had so much fun for ages. Signs of a misspent youth. Despite plenty of hunting high and low we failed to turn this one up. We're sure it is here but with so many likely hiding spots to choose from we're not too despondent. 
Headed up to Geraldton for 4 days to try and find as many caches as we could. Its been 6 months since we were last there and there has been so many new caches come out that we will need another trip there to find them all. We ended up finding 215 and about a dozen DNFS. We picked a few up on the way and did a detour on the way home to Mullewa and i must say the wildflowers are beautiful at the moment. We found a great variety of caches including a couple of wherigo,s, lots of field puzzles, multi,s and the highlight for the hubby was doing the chirp cache. I would like to say all caches were found quickly but that definately wasnt the case lol.... There was some very tricky and sneaky hides that took quite a while to find with a few we went back a couple of times to till we found them. We managed to find a few that we previously had DNFS on and it was was great finding a lot of creative cache containers especially some of the field puzzle ones. Thanks to everyone for the caches and hope to find a lot more on our next trip to geraldton....
It is here! But this one was hidden for the kids to find! Unless your nimble and good at climbing, please don't try this one!
Was in town while on the way back o Perth after the event in Geraldton. It was raining and quite dark. Spent about 10 minutes looking for this one and with the poor light and a million hiding places gave up and headed on home to Perth.
Visiting from Queensland and stayed in Dongara for a couple of nights to have the car serviced before we go chasing more wild flowers. We spent the day finding (and not finding) caches in town. This one eluded us and we are very glad that there were no muggles around to watch 65 years old geowife and 72 years old geohubby clambering around this beautiful tree. It was good fun but no luck for us this time. Thanks for a great hide anyway.
*FTF*
OMG.
We had a job to do in town this morning and were hoping to come back for another chance for a first to find. We came a little more prepared, knowing what was in store. The fitness side of things didn't happen though and there was plenty of huffing and puffing and grunting. No kids available.
Geohubby decided on a methodical approach and searched some distance away from me. Suddenly the jubilant echo of success rang out. FOUND IT.
This was a fun challenge. Yes challenge!
Thanks for the hide. A favourite for the location, the challenge and the laughs.
We think the Eiffel Tower would have been easier.

After travelling nearly 4000km from Melbourne in the last three days I would have loved returning to home and claiming a first to find on this.
Not to be.
What a sight. Two 'mature!!' inappropriately dressed people clambering in places that defy gravity looking for treasure. Thank goodness no one was around. There was enough laughter from us.
Now I'm going to blame fading light for our inability to find this one. I also wondered how cryptic the Eiffel clue is. Have to come back another time.
