Find 25 of 27 on a a fantastic day out, riding from Mundaring to Chidlow and back on the Kep Track on a perfect blue sky day.The penny dropped reasonably quickly here, after a lap of the park looking for points of interest. Then it was off to GZ where the ants have moved in. The cache location was spotted quickly but trying to get it without a TOTT was a bad idea. Then, the TOTT came out with a magnet attached but no cache. Luckily the TOTT also can be re-purposed as a flicker/scraper and the cache was eventually extracted. Where the magnet used to be was quite apparent. We have stuck the magnet in the bottom of the cache and left it near the entrance - it should be extractable via the magnet, but if not, it's close enough to use fingers carefully.TFTC TeamBarritts!
I have had the puzzle solved for a while and was nearby today. I walked down for a quick find using a nearby TOTT.

Went out for dinner at Antonio's tonight, solved the mystery on our way but claimed the final on our way home, without a pen unfortunately so photo for proof, TFTC
We did a run past this one today and confirmed it is still there but pushed too far in.
After a minute or two of fiddling we were able to retrieve it. We replaced the old container with a new magnetised one so retrieval will be easy.
Please make sure you only push it in 10 cm or so.
Cheers Team Barritts

I’ve been meaning to stop for months. I couldn’t spot anything up the pole or down the fence so gave up.
Found it! been meaning to get this one ticked off for a while. retrieved cache without any specific tools. cache is in good condition. smart little one TFTC
Found safe and sound. Dropped a vital part and took 10 minutes to find it in the leaves. Thanks for the hide
After having the puzzle solved for a while I’m glad to finally have my name in the logbook. Favourite point TFTC
Woohoo! Puzzle complete and cache found. Glad to have my magnetic extendable stick "thingy"!
Day 11 of camphosting at Beelu National Park Campsite. And this time a return to this puzzle after a top tip from the CO. A red mark because I cannot add, then green. Got to GZ, luckily I had an appropriate TOTT, retrieved the cache, then retrieved it a second time when I dropped it. Signing done, thanks for this puzzle and your help Team Barrits. And a FP!
Out ‘n about with m4yb getting a few caches.
Well this one has a story to it! But I won’t bore you with the details, however, note to self” photograph everything”! Luckily staying close by and me getting a blocked ear, we had to make another visit to the township. So we got ALL the details and with thanks for a nice hint from the CO we had the green light. Worth a favorite point for the clever puzzle and the hide.

Out this way for an event and took advantage of the time with no kids to collect some puzzles and other caches we have had on our list for some time. Nice find thanks.
This one took a bit of thought, but we got there in the end. Found whilst out on the way home after a days caching around Wundowie, Chidlow and Mundaring areas with I C Nothing, geotrakka and Meme28. TFTH and puzzle!
Thanks TeamBarritts for placing and maintaining this cache. Out and about with Barnzy12 getting a few smily faces.
An early start to join Kapelula, ICnothing & Meme28 for a girls day of hunting on out way to and fro jasenjanine’s event in Chidlow. Thanks for the puzzle - we did this one on the way home
Out with Kapelula ICNothing and Geotrakka today on a mission to find some solved puzzles. With a little nudge we found the cache and placed a smiley here!
Did the calculations while picking up the nearby Lab cache. Used our own TOTT at GZ for an easy extraction.
Nice idea for a field puzzle.
TFTC TeamBarritts this is find # 9927 for us.

Came to GZ a few months ago...finally came back as get receiving an 'anonymous' tip.. tftc
Found this, but couldn't find the tool. Got inventive and extracted. We left it a little easier to reach until a new tool is available.
Headed out East today to cleanup a few loose ends and decided to cleanup a few of the caches nearby that have been on the radar for a while. Thanks for the hides.
It seems that the tool needed to retrieve the cache has gone missing. I will endeavor to replace it over the next few days.
Heading up the hill towards the FOTT series. Stopped for a break and did this multi. Couldn’t find the ‘tool’ but fortunately had something in our tott bag. Extraction difficult as it was in deep but we got there in the end. Thanks to CO.
I have been wanting to look for this one for ages. With a light caching list we have plenty of time today. TFTC Team Barritts
Finally, with help from the CO we had the coordinates and headed to find the cache. A bit of stealth and the cache was retrieved, log signed and returned. TFTC "Team Barritt"!
This one had me stumped for a while, trying all sorts of methods. After getting a hint from the CO I was back on track and made the find easily. Thanks for a great cache.
Find #2381
We found the plaque, did the maths, then walked to find the cache.... Managed retrieval without the tool, but the tool will make life easier. Cache in great condition -TFTC TeamBarritts

Fun puzzle. Took a minute or so before the penny dropped.
Spent several minutes at the tool GZ but found nothing. Moved on to the final and was lucky able to reach the cache with ease. TFTC

With help puzzle so happy and went to special cant see any thing so give up and walk to GZ - make it to retrieved the cache and signed the log. Thanks TeamBarritts.
With the final coordinates to hand we consulted the Geochecker for further details and headed off to find the cache. Interesting puzzle, thanks TeamBarritts.
Out for a early an morning caching run ,solved the puzzle after a hint from a fellow cacher and signed as stf, who would of thought after so many weeks TFTC
We solved this puzzle after a little hint from a fellow cacher, some times you can overthink things...... so with coordinates worked out we headed off for a couple of early finds before the mornings duties began, happy to say we walked away with a big smile TFTC
We were down at the shops when there was a break in the rain enough for us to have a quick hunt for this one. We found the place of interest however couldn't make head nor tail of it. We took a quick picture so we can ponder over this mystery at a later time. Might be more than a 2.5 difficulty TFTC TeamBarritts!

Had just sat down to catch up on some logging when I noticed new caches coming through Saw this one & was ready to start solving it, but it soon became clear that I wasn't going to be solving it from home
Without hesitation I was soon headed to a familiar place and gathering the info before making sense of the numbers. Put my first guess into the GPS & thought it highly unlikely so gave the checker a try to reveal I was wrong. Took my time on the second try & realised my error, before getting a green light second time round... I was still unsure of where my GPS was pointing so made doubly sure with my phone before setting off towards GZ
On my approach I had already sussed out where the final prize would be... Needed to dig around in my handbag for something to help retrieve the logbook & was rewarded with a blank log for my effort
TFTC & the nice puzzle TeamBarritts
