Dnf

The logbook was completely soaked. We replaced it and placed it in a small container. A bit of time to find. Thankfully the sun came out TFTC

Nice spot for a cache. TFTC

Out and about on the WA Day long weekend with AB73. TFTC Tucked the log back underneath. Didnt have a container sorry to put it in.

Out on the bike early this morning to pick up some caches. All were signed and replaced as found, used clues from previous logs to find this one TFTC

Returned under the cover of darkness to find a spiderweb and the cache thanks to a previous finder. Able to rid myself of another DNF. TFTC

Tftc. Found it with [@chrishere] the log book is in a plastic bag and needs a concealer

TFTC @familysteiner!! Found with @tman290 Log returned to the same location mentioned by @Barco

Ill check on this one over the next week and replace the container

Out for a little geocaching drive on Easter Monday and this was one that I stopped off at. All very quiet around here today so parked up close to GZ and got straight into the search. Like the previous searcher I spent a while rummaging around trying to use previous logs to help. I was on the verge of calling it quits when I noticed a discarded bag nearby that looked like a typical bag for a log... and yep, inside was indeed the log book. Given it was laying in the leaf litter with no container I guess this one has been muggled. I tucked the log book away as best I could - see pic. TFTC

Spent a long time here. I looked, stared, crouched, climbed and got in the tree. Still nothing for me. I know its there just too good for me.

TFTC bit bigger than I was expecting.. kids got bit by some ants while we were searching

Found

Managed to find out way to a parking spot about 50m from GZ.Walked up and started the hunt and was starting to feel like we might be leaving empty handed when I lowered my gaze and spotted the cache by my feet. After a break over Twixmas, Tuesday evening brought the revival of geocaching adventures, this time I partnered up with monkeywand for an adventure north of the river.Starting around Mt Lawley and Yokine, we travelled quickly through the charming neighborhoods of Leederville, Nedlands and Subiaco, concluding our urban quest in the bustling heart of the CBD.For me the nights haul included 11 successful finds, 5 quick and engaging adventure labs, and the inevitable challenge of 2 Did Not Finds (DNFs). Thanks familysteiner for placing ECU Eucalypt for me and others to find.I added my name to the log at 19:16 on 2/1/2024.This is find number 7932 for me.

Out with Cirrus_WA for some Tuesday night caching escapades. Changing points of view helps.

Had a decent look for about 15mins, standing at the exact coordinates. Couldnt find anything, may be lost or I might not have been looking hard enough

Find it finally. TFTC. The cache is in good condition and dry.

Yes, it is pretty.

This took SUCH a long time, because I was looking for the bison, then BAM! There it was. Tyftc!

Took a little while to track down.
Tftc.

Another gap in the map filled. TFTC

(Catching up on some missing online logs.)The Better Half and I came for a drive north of the river to do some caching. We parked our car nearby and then went for a long walk.This was one of the caches we found on the walk. Cache found without problems. Very wet log signed as best we could and cache returned as we found it.Thanks familysteiner for placing this cache for other cachers to find.

Thanks familysteiner for placing this cache for us to find.

Found it and found a sweet gig of a mini skateboard. I tried to fit in a trackable I'd been hoarding but alas it didn't fit. I will perceive!

TFTC - trying to be good a go for an early morning walk. Gave me a great goal. Thank you. Lovely secret spot

A Sunday morning before the storms come in was a great time to go and find some caches close to home. Thought I had better start finding some by familysteiner and they seem to have found all of mine. Bringing back memories of the 90s at what was known as Edith Cowan in my day.

Out for a morning run on a wet morning in Perth. Luckily I missed most of the showers. I grabbed the couple of new ones in the Yokine Open Space and then checked the GPS to see what was available on the way back to the car. This one wasn't too far out of the way so off I set.
Thanks to good coords it didn't take too long to find but being wet it was a little difficult to open, my fingers kept slipping.

TFTC! Hubby needed to return some books to the library so I came with him to find your cache

Somehow I felt very naughty getting this one. Not quite sure why but I've never signed and replaced so quickly in my life haha. TFTC

Much bigger than I expected and much prettier too. TYFTC

We dropped one of our pathtags into this one!

Another Sunday morning caching run NOR. We woke up early and headed away early to clear a few of the I found caches in this part of town. Cheers and TFTC.

G’day there familysteiner, I was in this area today and found your cache ECU Eucalypt GC8B0GF. I added my name to the log book at 9:48 am on 7 March 2021. A huge thanks to you for placing this cache here for us (and others) to find!

Found the moment I stood back and took a deep breath to reset the searching senses .

I’m not good with hanging ones but found pretty quick, thanks

An easy grab...once you spot it TFTC!

Out on a night caching adventure! Found it after a quick search

Easy to find

Out grabbing a couple of early morning caches with Leega we stopped to grab this one. We parked nearby and made our way to gz. The prize was spotted as we approached. We soon had our names on your log and returned your cache back to where we found it. TFTC familysteiner.

Found with axell33 on an early morning caching run. Axell33 spotted this first as we approached. Thanks for the cache and greetings from Baldivis.

Nearly gave up but found it woohoo!! TFTC found with vaka5

Find 14 of 17 on a bike ride from Lightning Swamp to North Perth for lunch, then back to the car against a school run deadline. Compared to yesterday's wet and wild day out, the weather was relatively excellent! Today's entertainment was sponsored mainly by .K.B., familysteiner and blinknurdead with a selection of difficult hides - too difficult in some cases, with 4 DNFs along the way.

This one should have been easy but was not. First one after lunch and needing to get back to the car, I went round and round here. I can struggle with these hides so I just kept squinting and changing angle, but got nothing. Eventually I looked down for some reason and the cache was at my feet. So lucky! But also a testament to good co-ords. I hung the cache back up pretty much above where I found it, although it's not the sturdiest branch.

TFTC familysteiner!

Tftc sl. Found after a sweep around to find the right tree.

Quick pitstop to clear a dot after a failed attempt at FTF in the City.

G’day familysteiner, I found your cache today (Sunday 16/2/20 at 10:57). Cheers for the hunt!

Headed out early with Mr OOH YEH to try and clear up a pile of caches waiting to be found on the map. Started the day off with a spot of fishing and after a lot of neck stretching all fish were found except one that we just couldnt spot. Continued on to do the Jurrassic park series and a few other traditionals, a multi and a couple of puzzle caches. All in all a good day with only 1 DNF and some very novel containers. TFTC

Out n about collecting some caches today whilst the weather is nice and cool yet the sun shining bright! A great day for caching TFTH

Meow

Stinking hot today, but no problems here. TFTC familysteiner.

Quick find TFTH

TFTC nice camo

Great hide. Love the camoed bison. Busy road. TFTC

Quick and quiet find this afternoon on the way to pick up my eldest from work. TFTC

Nice hide, thanks familysteiner.

Nice hide in a pretty location. Lovely yellow waterlillies in the lake. Tftc

Spotted fairly quickly.
TFTC familysteiner this is find # 7585 for us.

Lovely camouflaged container. Perfect height for older folks. Good hide

Hi familysteiner I found your cache while in the area tftc

A quick find and a nice quality cache container as well. I had to park and walk a way as the security seemed to be doing their rounds while I was there.
Thanks.

Good hide spot - signed the log as EV and thanks for the cache and hunting.

I finished work at 2:30pm and the sun was shining. I needed a few thousand more steps so I wandered to GZ. Walking through ECU in the afternoon is always an experience. I find it bizarre that I can walk into any building without question. I'm sure I could sit in on most lectures and not attract attention either. As usual, it was a ghost town since most students only seem to visit for a few hours a week these days. I crossed paths with two people and both provided entertainment. First was a young adult female who clearly dreamed of playing phantom in the opera since her makeup was reminiscent of the lead star except it was shimmery silver instead of white. After doing my best not to stare, I pass a sign saying "ECU students. World ready". I'm not convinced the world is ready for the girl I'd seen and then I meet a young man. He's staring at his phone so intently while walking that as he approaches from about 100m he walks right off a massive kerb and falls. Not sure he's quite world ready yet either! I walked around the lake taking photos of the sculpture from multiple directions before stopping to log a quick find here. Thanks for the hide which provided a reason for an afternoon walk.

PP1 made a quick find here thank goodness as these can sometimes be tricjy. Thanks for the last few hours caching NOR familysteiner

{*FTF*} we went out early on a Sunday morning to grab this cache. Once we got to gz we had a bit of a search to get the cache. But we were reward with a blank log. TFTC

MorningStar87 had lunch in the city so I decided to be her chauffeur and drop her off and pick her up. In the couple of hours she was there I managed to cleanup a few solved puzzles and a traditional.

Thanks to the COs for a bit of fun.

STF. Found during a morning walk. Tftc
