Cool find, thanks

This DNF is all on me - another catcher who I appear to be following found it today. I don't know if I was put off because of the half decayed kangaroo I found, or the slight change in coordinates but I'll have to come back another day to get this one Thanks for the hide

We haven’t been up this way for a while and I spied that there had been a bunch of new caches placed around here. We left the Deep South nice and early so we could make the most of the fine weather that was forecast. Cheers and TFTC.

G’day there dezzabills, I was in this area today and found your cache Hooked Line and Sinker GC7N4Z5. Our name was added to the log book at 8:06 am on 21 May 2022. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

Another day caching with team MILCS- Meme28, I C Nothing, Lachlan 1.77, Cirrus_Wa and SirFancy.

Geology rocks but Geography is where it’s at!

01-May-22
Thank you! Out grabbing a few caches before the nearby event. Happy to make the find here. Enjoyed this one.
 
01-May-22
Having looked at the satellite image it looked like this cache was on the right side of the fence for us on our circuit, turns out that was wrong and we slowly made our way under the barbed wire.
Once on the right side the container was spotted and extracted after a couple of minutes of searching.
While the signing was taking place we noticed another similar container setup at the same place.
We grabbed the second cache and can get it back to the CO if wanted.

After finishing Auskick Mr’s Z & T decided they wanted to stick we need and head up for a caching day at Whiteman Park.
After having a quick chat at the event headed to the village for some lunch before caching around Mussel Pool and the south eastern parts of the park with I C Nothing, Meme28 and junior members of the team.
In the afternoon Lachlan1.77 joined in to form the MILCS.
After a long and enjoyable day out we headed home with 21 finds and 0 DNF’s.

Thanks dezzabills for placing Hooked Line and Sinker for me and others to find.
I added my name to the log at 13:38 on 1/5/2022.
This is find number 4505 for me.
 
01-May-22
Out and about in Whiteman Park and surrounds for the Blue Switch Day event. This cache was found with multiple parties, so to conserve log space, the log was signed at MILKS (initial for each team member).

Cheers dezzabills! Big Grin
 
01-May-22
MILCS team was here. FP for the cache as it was worth the walk! Cheers

05-Jun-21
Such a great hide, one of the coolest we’ve seen! Thank you
 
20-May-21
Very creative! Glad we were on the right side of the fence (tree side).
 
11-Apr-21
Not sure why there are two separate caches with two separate log sheets occupying the same host, but found both and signed both. One was really cleverly constructed!

Glad to have read a previous log clarifying the correct side of the fence from whihc to conduct the search.
 
14-Mar-21

Mr OOH YEH Headed out early to Whiteman park to try and clear up a lot of the green dots we still have on the map. Most caches were quickly found with a few that took a bit of searching TFTC
 
14-Nov-20
Had to work out which side of the fence it was. ‘‘Twas the tree side and a quick find thereafter TFTC
 
01-Oct-20
Looked on out side of fence no luck today. Looks like people have been going through the fence. Maybe clarify in the details.
 
01-Oct-20
Found now I realise you are allowed on that side of the fence came from opposite direction Verry clever
 
05-Sep-20

Perfect spring weather to head to Whiteman Park for a few hours of caching.
TFTC dezzabills this is find # 8070 for us.

Catching up on a few logs from caches found with b12.

Thanks for the find, please excuse the generic log.
 
24-Aug-19
Very neat construction

Headed East today to cleanup a few caches around Whiteman Park and Guildford.

A great morning for caching with the sun shining and relatively cool weather.

Made a meal of the opening times! They open at 830am, well they let us in at 826am.

Some great fun caches around these parts now and we can’t wait to come back to finish off the rest of the caches.

Thanks fo the COs for a fun morning out.
 
10-Aug-19
We have been enjoying your caches today dezzabills. Have a favourite for this one.
 
31-Jul-19
Had to repair this cache after some mongrel heartless cacher destroyed it and stole the bison and its host
 
29-Jul-19
We found the body of the cache but it was apparent that significant parts of the cache were missing. Thanks Dezzabills for the speedy maintenance and permission to log our find.
 
14-Jul-19

09-May-19
Found it
 
08-Nov-18
Find 8 of 14 on a pleasant bike ride around Whiteman Park picking up all the unfound caches that remained - we now have a full set of 36 finds.

Approached from the wrong side but good teamwork saw us on the right side without any clothing malfunctions. Took a minute or two to be in the right spot to see the cache.

TFTC dezzabills!
 
27-Oct-18
Sorry for the late log. I managed to get an hour of spare time this afternoon and headed out to the closest caches, always nice to see a few more caches in the park and come for a visit. I had to search for quite a while before I eventually spotted this one! Thanks for the cache dezzabills!
 
27-Oct-18
On the wrong side of the fence and wearing my favourite shirt so didn't want to tangle with barbed wire.
 
07-Oct-18
Took me a good 10 minutes or so circling the host before spying the container. Beautiful day to be out and about. Tftc Smile
 
06-Oct-18
Very clever hide. When we saw it, we knew TFTC
 
25-Sep-18
Last one in wp and so glad to find it. Also ended up or wrong side of fence but soon had the cache signed. Another great cache in a great location. Tftc
 
09-Sep-18
Took us a while and found ourselves on the wrong side of the fence. Mrs finally found it. Tftc
 
30-Jul-18
Sorry for the late log; I thought I had logged online already. I visited in the afternoon, after Photoplay. I had to carry my bike the last few hundred metres. I ended up on the wrong side of the fence but soon corrected that. Round and round I went until I found the correct vantage point to spot the container. Thanks for the cache; huge sinker!
 
30-Jul-18
Found it. TFTC dezzabills. Great place to take the deadly treadle for the day.
 
24-Jun-18
Nice afternoon walk through Whitemans park, this obkect definately doesnt belong to its host Smile TFTC
 
24-Jun-18
Found with Shortie27. Thanks for taking us on this nice walk. TFTC
 
09-Jun-18
No success. Kids had had enough and I wasn't getting anywhere, so called it.
 
03-Jun-18
Out for a drive north of the river with the Better Half and doing a bit of geocaching whilst in the area. We enjoyed the walk to this cache after an earlier walk to some caches in Midland.

Found the cache without any problems. Log signed and cache returned as found.

Thanks dezzabills for placing this cache for us to find.

(Catching up on some missed logs from 2018)
 
29-May-18
Found with chwiliwr after doing caching around Midland. Signed and replaced as found.

Thanks dezzabills for the hunt.

A cache close to home on a rainy thundery day PERFECT! I parked close by and then walked in, took a short time to find the hide. I'm not sure if something has happened to it or not? The sinker isn't attached. tftc
 
21-Apr-18
Master 6 and myself made our way to this one after straddling a fence at GZ. My initial thoughts of a micro somewhere in these couple of trees made me cringe a bit, but thankfully it didn't take too long to track the hiding spot down Smile. I added our name to the logbook before replacing the cache back in its' host.
TFTC dezzabills Big Grin
 
21-Apr-18
Approached the GZ from the wrong side of the fence. Crawled through the roo tunnel (under the fence). Enjoyed finding the camo and the cache. A favourite out of #12 finds in Whiteman Park today.
 
18-Apr-18
Got the email around 12 today and rushed out without realising that it had been held up somewhere. Managed a 3rd to find. Clever hide thanks dezzabills
 
18-Apr-18
Been in Perth for a few errands and discovered this one was only about 20km away. Did the detour to see if I could snatch up an FTF. Found the clever camo quickly, however parkacruz had been by far quicker, so congrats to them for FTF.
 
18-Apr-18
Nice camo, took a good 15min before finally finding it. Coords a few metres out but once in the right spot easily seen.
Surprised to be first to log but 4th to find with that going this morning.
TFTC, good to see some caches this side of the park.
 
18-Apr-18
Out early this morning and we were no where near home when we seen this cache had been published, so a very quick change of plans and a turn around to head back out there, well we are happy to say that the mercy dash was well worth it as we were rewarded with the sight of that empty log, a great cache which we found quickly and a big smiley here with a {*FTF*} TFTC
