Looked high and low for this 1 , found remains of some of the rock that used to b attached to the container, but no container. Lovely spot for tho
It is a fast trip down to Mandurah. Geowife dropped me at Madora Bay at 5 pm and was required to meet up at Mandurah Estuary Bridge Fishing Jetty by 7:30 pm with my geobike. I managed to collect some yellow smiley and visit some with blue faces. The nice sunset with many people at the beach side which increases the difficulties of collecting more. Today collection rate is 50%. Spent most of my time around San Remo. ------------About the cacheUp to the hilltop and found a nice view of the Indian Ocean. Tried to find the cache and got bitten by a poor little bee. Did not dig deep as the plantation covered well.
It was wet
And I found it
Container may need better sealing, all paper inside soaked sadly

Up lots of stairs for our little legs, great view when up there! Hard to find as was over in the bushes! Thanks for the rocks!
Found it!!! I think it had been moved so i placed it back where it should be.
What a view! Living nearby, I didn’t even know this existed. If there’s one thing great about geo caching, it brings you to the unknown in plain sight.
Warm arvo and listening to fire alerts nearby. No-one about so able to search unimpeded. Co-ords good. Thanks macgyver1973
This was a great find. The log needs some tlc but nice and easy. Very accurate location tracking
Me and my friends where riding around when he reminded me of this app and then we where searching and he said it’s around here near a trolley and then I seen something sticking out and sure of it it was it didn’t take anything
Time to hang around Mandurah for a bit with a few detours for LGAs. TFTC.
Love the camo on this one. Quick find with accurate coords.

Started pouring as soon as I found this cache. Read other logs and looked the otherside of the track.
I had a pretty good look. If its the spot I’m thinking it thinking it should be than it looks like someone has taken it possibly. OR maybe I just couldn’t find it.
Found the cache after a bit of searching but nothing inside. Didn't have any paper on me to use as a log sheet. Took a photo, will send it to CO. Tftc
Out in the pouring rain today. Made a quick ascent and a quick find. Not on the co ords at all but an easy find. It's now quite obvious as some of the camo has come off. Wouldn't be hard for a muggle to spot.. tried to cover with natural camo but the wind was so strong it'll probably blow away. TFTC
Love this view. Happy to be back and get my name on the log book.

A bit of time off and a nice day with axell33 getting a few caches. This one took a lot longer than planned as the council crew turned up. Once they were gone we looked all over and we're very nearly stuck on this one when axell33 thought he had and yes he did! Great hide, we nearly had to come back another day! Thanks for the cache.
We arrived at gz as just as we started our search 2 council workers decided it was time to check the area. So we enjoyed the wonderful views while we waited to be left alone. After 20 minutes they finally left and we returned to our search. After searching for quite awhile the prize was finally spotted. I think looking for a micro put us off. We signed your log and returned your cache back to where we found it. Favourite coming up mostly for the beautiful views but also the camo. TFTC macgyver1973.
Excellent viewpoint. Had a good search with no luck. Read some logs and was about to resume when ol’ mate and his dog walked up for a rest ... and maybe a selfie.

Great cache!

Searched for about 10mins between visitors. Love the location. Will come back another day.
Took three of us 25 minutes and turns out we were searching on the wrong side view was great and well hidden! Thanks

Hi there macgyver1973.
We found your cache **"Sunset Selfie"** today. (This makes our find count 23548).
Following through on our passion of walking around parks, lakes and along walking tracks we decided to attempt the caches around the Madora Bay area today. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk and the scenery. We found 5 caches today & DNF'd 0.
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. Thanks also for not placing a mint tin or a 200ml Sistema here. It made us feel really good to find this "special" cache here.
**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache around 3m from where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Smiley Badge.
**Dropped Trackable:** "Holiday Traveller".
Thank you macgyver1973 for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

Came back with geokids but still couldn't find this one. It appears this isn't ever meant to be found by our team.
Came to find this one with Rainbow Scjaz as I haven't found it as part of the mystery series but it is nowhere to be found. As rainbow Scjaz has already found this and it's not here. A CO welfare check would be a good idea.
Yay, found after a hunt and help from 3 little locals thanks guys. Great cache thank you. Loved the view too
A glorious winters day had us out and about collecting smilies. This was one we found on our travels. Cheers and TFTC.
