I am regretfully archiving this cache since unfortunately there has been no action to restore it, or any communication from the cache owner, wandillup wanderer, requesting additional time.

An ample opportunity has been provided for the Cache Owner to respond, but since this opportunity has been ignored, I can only conclude that the cache has been abandoned.

Caches archived under these circumstances are unable to be Unarchived, and this location is now available for the placement of a new cache, by somebody else.

Our 5th day staying at Maranup Ford Caravan Park and we were out and about picking up a few smilies here and there.

Spotted the outer container on approach however after fiddling about for a bit discovered the cache would not be able to reveal itself, also discovered I was standing on ants nest which didn't make things any easier. As others have noted the original bison is not attached to the magnets anymore so I decided to add a replacement which should be easy enough to extract, hope that's OK.

wandillup wanderer I found your cache at 3:39pm, this was the 6th of 9 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 7246.

Catching up on some missing online logs.

The Better Half and I had a caching day that ranged from Bridgetown to Boyup Brook and surrounds after staying with friends at a cabin in Bridgetown.

Cache was found but we are sure that we got it out not by the way it was supposed to be. Log signed and cache returned as we found it.

We think that it will need attention before somebody breaks it to get the cache out.

Thanks wandillup wanderer for placing this cache for us to find.

Hi there wandillup wanderer.

We found your cache **"Kangaroo Gully School"** at 11:35:00 AM today. (This makes our find count 23799).

We decided to attempt some caches in and around Bridgetown area today. We thoroughly enjoyed our drive, walks and the scenery & found 17 caches & DNF'd 1.

Thanks for placing this cache here. Over the years, Geocaching has taken us on many adventures and to lots of wonderful destinations all over Australia. Without 'caching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our nomadic wanderings. 'Caching has also introduced us to a diverse group of like-minded people, many of whom we now call friends. We awarded this cache a favourite point for the ingenious construction.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking. Wink
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape, but the magnets are not where they should be.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thank you wandillup wanderer for adding to our adventure.

Regards

Ian & Penny

Touring the South West of WA using Geocachiing as our guide.

We are staying in Bridgetown a few nights so we can use geocaching as a guide. This led to us finding your cache today! Albeit we thought we had visited here before Razz

Another wonderful spot and cache.

Due to the contents of tube being slightly “removed” from where they should have been and replaced wrongly we had some trouble accessing. Could see how it is supposed to be and have fixed it. Great cache! Tftc
 
09-Jan-19
A good one but took a little while to get it out as it had been shoved in down the tube and separated from the clue. Very clever. Tftc
 
29-Dec-18
So, since my comment yesterday ……couldn’t sleep as I lay there thinking about all the clues I had available to find this cache and finally I figured it out. Couldn’t get back there quick enough to test my theory. Love it. My favourite chache so far.
 
28-Dec-18
Found an empty tube ( or maybe I didn’t solve the riddle???)

On the way to Bridgetown for work and with the kids at their Grandparents Mrs DD2 came for the drive.
We left home early so we could grab some caches on the way down, then Mrs DD2 checked out town while I did a few hours work, then we drove further afield and grabbed some more caches.
Not sure if we'll manage to get all the souvenirs but nice to have some Big Grin

OMG you are unreal, another very excellent camo job, can't wait to do more

Out on a caching run grabbing a few caches to earn those pesky souvenirs Smile

A lovely day in Bridgetown and surrounds, well once the fog lifted but it did make beautiful views just a hazard when driving on the roads.

Haha this was a good cache, I left muggle to work out how to get the inner out while I went to the car for a TOTT item Razz

A slight detour off the highway while heading back to Denmark after a couple of days in Bunbury and a quick trip to Sth Perth. The bull ants at gz were a concern and I had to hop from one leg to another to deter them while working out how to access the container. Must say that for a Saturday morning, this was a busy intersection with several cars passing and giving me the odd look. Tried to look like a tourist using my phone while standing at the corner. When a lull in the traffic occurred I used my own resources to entice the bison to appear. Thanks wandillup wanderer for another imaginative container.

Add fav pt

Well 2017 is nearly over, so we must make one last hurrah with a quick road trip south via a number of country towns to our eventual target of Manjimup to bag and tag a number of green dots on the map that have alluded us for far too long. I also had a mini goal to grab the twenty remaining caches to ensure I beat last years total finds of 2554, which we easily knocked off today.

After a good gym session this morning we left from Treeby heading south to Bunbury, where we turned off and made our way towards Manjimup via Bailingup, Kirup, Grimwade, Greenbushes, Bridgetown and a few others along the way.

We weren't sure about grabbing the caches in Gromwade as it looked a bit secluded but were very grateful for the good sized containers and good hides.

Our favourite caches for the day were a number of wandollip wanderer caches which were all very well constructed and deserved the many favourite points that we gave them! Thank you for making caching very interesting especially the school hides and around greenbushes.

We ended up caching in the fading light in Manjimup with 50 or so finds for the day, a huge effort. A few left in town for us to grab tomorow.

Thanks to the local COs for their great caches and we look forward to finding the remainder tomorow.

Day 4 of our road trip in south WA. Travelling with old friend and having lots of fun. We got the cache out, but the magnets fell off, they are placed inside the cap now.

Some early morning caching while staying with relatives in Bridgetown. Loved this despite the bull ants that found us while we tried to work it out. A definite fave here.

Whoohoo!! FTF. (It's been a little while) Saw a notification pop up last night and being at a function, thought someone closer might have headed out. Heading into town for our Saturday coffee, noticed this cache was still unlogged. As FTFs always trump coffee, we diverted to Bridget. Arrived and having seen similar elsewhere, we knew exactly what was needed. (Love these sorts of caches). Our unscheduled morning drive was soon rewarded with a brand new logbook. Thanks for the hide Wandillup Wanderer.

Darn it missed ftf by that much. Should have got it first thing this morning instead of getting a load of fire wood. TFTC Wandillup wanderer. Love your work.
