By SpatialRiq on 23-Dec-16. Waypoint GC6XXJR

Time to go

Guessing after today's bushfire this will be no more. Will check on it in a week or so to confirm.

A day trip to Swan Valley. Nuts, juice, honey and fruit. I collected 13 yellow smileys in total and no DNF.Thx SpatialRiq for hiding and maintaining the cache.

Found nice area for a walk

Out and about with Nat getting some of the caches in and around Walyunga NP. No trouble here. TFTC

Lovely spot to explore with the 5yr old! Tftc

Awesome little place to come have a walk

Challenging but worth it.

It's hidden good

New cache now in place.

A beautiful day to be out caching in the Swan Valley. A quick find here once at GZ. Unfortunately the logbookis putrid and unsignable. I didnt have a replacement on me so I've taken a photo as evidence of my find. Tftc

Easy find but needs maintenance

Cache needs maintenance as is cracked and prone to leaks however great area and nice find!!

Walking through this area today, you definitely knew that spring had sprung. Sunshine, birds chirping, good moods all round TFTC

Found it! 11/9/21

Quick pick up while in the area.
TFTC SpatialRiq this is find #12340 for us.

Quick find, all good here. The brook is flowing very nicely too. TFTC!

We found it easily

The Morris Crew. Great location

Lemon baby inside

I had gone up that very steep hill at the end of William Street to do a Geocaching Australia cache as a test for a new function on their site but it was way too steep for the Better Half so she stayed behind until I came back and then we went for a much more manageable walk to this cache.

Cache was found without problems. Log signed and cache returned as found.

Thanks SpatialRiq for the cache.

Tftf. My GPS was going haywire but still found it.

Gorgeous big flock of Carnaby's Cockatoos feeding in the low scrub here.

Nice walk for the kids

We headed out to grab a quick find today, came up trumps and walked away with the smilie TFTC

Quick find but Dad found it first and didn’t even tell us where it was and told us that we had to find it ourselves! TFTC

Easy find in the first place I looked.

We had a lovely stroll and believe we found the right spot, but no geocache for us.

Nearing the end of the day and without a cache in hand, dashed out to grab this one. Coords spot on. TFTC SpatialRiq.

Another great place

Tftc spatialriq a very quick find while in the area. Cache is still in good condition.

Not so cold this morning and the rain at bay - a great day to be out caching. Geo-hubby lived in the Herne Hill area during his primary school years so he knows this area well. I heard all his childhood reminisces as we negotiated around the series. Thanks SpatialRiq

Let the geokids find this one. Tftc

Out filling a spot on the d/t at a cache nearby. So stopped off here to grab another smile

Tftc spartialRiq

A great spot for a shiny cache

I am on a bit of a caching mission this month and am hoping to rack up some large numbers . A trip to power trail heaven, Adelaide, later this month should help with my plans . I decided to head to this area today and grab the smileys on offer, a big thanks to SpatialRiq for placing this container out here for us to find [^].

SpatialRiq - jinta29 found your cache Swan Valley Series - Nature Reserve on 15/4/17, 9:42 am. This is my find #6494 and find #7 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for bringing us to this location and adding to the wonderful spirit of this game!

Beautiful day fir a hunt. Tftc

Headed up to Toodyay for the Wheatbelt science event and stopped along the way to grab some caches. All the caches were found quickly except one we couldn't find, TFTC SpatialRiq

Nice quick find this afternoon. Cheers. SpatialRig.

Thanks for a fun find and a very fun series. I've seen areas of the Swan Valley I didn't know were around even though I drive and work in the area almost daily. Finding this cache is a case in point. Didn't know this trail was there, and will for sure have to go back for a hike and explore.

Found it - great cache series for parking and grabbing. TFTC's

I found your Swan Valley Series - Nature Reserve. TNLN SL TFTH SpatialRiq. Image shows: Entrance to Nature Reserve.

Today was the "campersic loop" for my cycling group. I rode with them to the base of the hill before doing a U turn to return to this cache. Thanks for the cache....this was the only cache which involved leaving my bike and it was before 7am so I felt sure no one was going to be stealing at that time.

Out caching with yeatesy89 junior this was our last cache for the day, easy find. Thankyou for the series.

this was our last cache for today, I'm tired, hungry and thirsty. Think I;ll sleep on the way home

After picking up a FTF nearby I thought I'd grab a few more smileys in the area before it got too hot. Had to check the hint once at GZ before finding the cache. I think I saw a picture of this container on a social media site the other day.

SpatialRiq I found your cache at 8:08am, this was the 7th of 8 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 3734. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

After watching Rogue One at the movies this afternoon I had the chance to come out for some caching. I managed to knock over 17 caches in 2.5 hours including 4 FTF's, a great afternoon!

A little bit of a longer walk here, and a nice little nature reserve. A quick find once at GZ. Thanks for the cache SpatialRiq!

We enjoyed this series around the Swan Valley and we found a few hidden gems as we drove roads we have not been down before today. Thanks SpatialRiq for a lovely series of caches with sensible hides.

TFFC SpatialRiq another quick one here Replaced as found

Published

TFTC TFTH out with itskate and Barnzy12 after the notifications came down with new caches in the swan valley. The main objective for the day was then the new Sean Valley Series of caches. We also collected most of the MUSHROOM caches and then a few others in Ellenbrook. 2 DNF 's for the day and around 16 finds. This now should have my main objective for the year finished also with 4 days spare

We packed a picnic and headed out to the Chidlow/Wundowie area. The plan was to hit Lake Leschenaultia and some other of thr great caches in that area.

We were packing the car when these caches were published. Immediately a new plan was hatched. Picked a random cache to start with and away we went.

After missing the previous FTF and catching up with jasenjanine, we head to what we thought was a cache that had already been found. Parked at the and of the path and wandered over to GZ.

I was very surprised to see a blank log here {FTF} at 1010



- SVKR_WA found your cache Swan Valley Series - Nature Reserve on 27/12/16, 10:04. This is my find #1716 and find #9 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Quick find after meeting J & J again

TFTC! Was lucky to be doing the afternoon shift today at work, which was also going to be my half day this week, so I made plans with Cravo10 and ItsKate to grab some caches out and about, just going from cache to cache, whilst driving around we received notifications for the new spatial rip series in the swan valley, a large number of caches, which looked to be nice simple finds, exactly what the doctor ordered! We grabbed them and some of the mushroom series, and some of the other new caches around the swan valley and Ellenbrook.

We decided to Meetup again in the evening and grab some caches around Forrestfield, which were pretty good finds, with some nice small walks around the lesmuride falls regional park including another archived cache courtesy of early geocaching pioneers mischiefs crew. Thanks for a lovely day out.

Spending the day in the Swan Valley finding these new caches plus a few extras, this one was the next in our sights... We noticed SVKR_WA go speeding past us whilst we stopped at another cache not far from here & once getting to this one realised that they were speeding by to grab the FTF!!! Very cheeky

Jase & the kids headed to this one whilst I was busy on the phone & as the order of the day, ran into SVKR_WA & Blingg again on the way out! TFTC SpatialRiq
