By 3oldwkers on 03-Sep-19. Waypoint GC8D3TA

Found it

Checked and found to be a bit damp. Dried the inside and placed back in position

Thanks 3OWs we managed a bit of CITO here and luckily came across an old dress that we fashioned into a carry bag. Container full of water so we left it upside down in the hope that water ingress is less likely. Thanks for a fun couple of mornings.

Another nice quick find, container had some water in it but log is fine.....bit of a bush bash to this one and going to attempt to continue bashing through to the next cache we have our eye on, not sure if that was a good idea but we do like economy of motion A lovely stroll through the PK Scientific Park today collecting smilies and adding our name to some more challenge caches out here.Thank you 3oldwkers for placing and maintaining our first cache for us and others to find and enjoy!

Caching around Perth and the west coast for a few weeks. TFTC. A bit off the beaten track but a nice walk.

Checked on this one today. All good.

Today TaurusSix and I were heading to Perth to have an evening at the theatre. We decided to set off much earlier than needed so we could fit in a couple of hours of geocaching along the way. Leaving plenty time to get to our hotel and change before the show. We had been eyeing off the caches around the Port Kennedy Scientific Park Nature Reserve Area for sometime but believed they would be easiest to get in Autumn or Winter when there is no need to worry about snakes . Therefore today was a perfect day for it. We tackled the PP2 - CBBC series along with a couple of challenges, a few individual caches as well as a nearby Adventure Lab . All in all it was a lovely three hours and we ended up with 26 being 21 actual caches and 5 for the Adventure Lab . The weather was predominantly pleasant with only one short sharp shower.

This is our sixth cache find of the day while enjoying a lovely walk in this nature reserve . We took the short divert to this gz. The cache container was full of water so we emptied and dried the best we could . Thanks for the cache 3 oldwkers .

A lovely wintry morning for a walk along the sand tracks to GZ where the cache was spotted in its hiding place. The container had water in it but the log book was ok for signing. Water emptied out and the cache replaced as found. Thanks 3oldwkers for this one.

A quick find while doing the CBBC series. Cheers

Worked up a sweat for this one! TFTC! Water had seeped in and bug was getting a little rusty.

A nice find in the bushes for Geo-Bunny always mindful of potential "moving sticks".

Dropped off a "WA Flag" Discover Me WA, TB. Thought it was about time to move this one on. This one did go rouge and ventured outside the state.

Thanks goes to the CO for this cache and bringing us to this location.

Bit of a diversion. Good hide.

After doing the gnome caches we detoured off to grab this one. Quick find once at gZ TFTC

Out for a walk with Ooh Yeh this morning, really enjoyed the lovely walk in the sunshine. All caches were found quickly, logs signed and cache replaced as found.

Nice little hide - thanks! ??

Found it.
I'm glad it was relatively cool today.
Thanks 3oldworkers.

Hard slog through the sand but made a quick find at gz.

I had a good ride around the Port Kennedy Scientific Park. The weather was patchy and twice I had to shelter from heavy showers.

The track was fantastic to ride the mountain bike on too. This is the benefit of a month of solid rain!

It took a few minutes before I spotted the camo container.

I detoured off the PP2 series to find these two trads. Temp was hot so it was a slog through soft sand. This actually took some time to locate. Not sure how I missed it for so long. Thanks.

Detoured to grab this on the way back to the car.

TFTC 3oldwkers this is find #11267 for us.

Nice quick find once at GZ. A bit of a walk in. Thanks for the hide

Headed down to Port Kennedy’s with C10 to pickup the last few remaining caches in the Port Kennedy Scientific Park. A beautiful evening for a spot of caching.

Thanks 3oldwkers for placing and maintaining this cache. Out and about with Barnzy12 getting a few smily faces.

Logbook was renewed to replace the wet one on the 28-10-2020. Will dry the old one and return the signed pages.

After doing the last of the series at Rocking Lakes we decided to come over to do the CBBC series before the heat although the heat eventually go to us so we didn't finish this series in the end due to other nearby caches being added.

This was one of the extra caches attempted. Cache found without issue but log was quite wet. Log signed and cache returned as found.

Once at GZ the cache took a bit to uncover as we all walked past the container a couple of times before I C Nothing spied it and added our names into the log.

Thanks 3oldwkers for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 2209 for me.

Out with ICNothing Kapelula and CirrusWA today. The search took longer than expected but we finally had it in our hands... thank you 3oldwkers!

Took us a little while to find, but we got there on the end. Out caching with I C Nothing, Meme28 and Cirrus_WA. TFTH!

With restrictions lifted its time to get the gang together again to grab some caches. Enjoying the sunshine in the Rockingham area today with Kapelula and Meme28 focusing on our solved puzzles and challenge caches. Thanks for CO’s for placing the caches for our enjoyment.

Checked on are cache on the 25/04/2020. All OK.

A sandy but welcome walk to GZ. TFTC.

Out to continue the drive to 5000. Thanks 3oldwkers for bringing me to this location and taking the time to hide and maintain this cache. I found the cache at 10:46:00. This was my Find 10 for today out of a Total number of 11 Finds and 0 DNF for for this Caching Outing. The cache was found in Good Condition and I signed the log and returned the cache as I found it.

This find brings my total number of Finds to 4921.

An bit of early morning caching with axell33 after his night shift and this was one nearby, so we made the trek with the geopups on a nice warm,sunny morning before the heat came. A quick find at gz and a trek back to the car. Thanks for the cache.

Out grabbing a few caches after a night shift with Leega and the geopooches. We made the trek in just as the heat was starting to pick up. Once at gz we made a nice quick find. We signed your log and returned your cache back to where it belongs. TFTC 3oldwkers.

Phew, this was a bit of a hike to get to... I was in the area collecting the Challenge caches and decided to head for this one. Aerial mapping showed that I might be able to straight line it from "The Lonely Cache Challenge" but I was wrong, the scrub was too thick so I backtracked and followed the sandy trails. I found the cache easily enough and then managed to stumble on some 4x4 tracks which made the walk back a bit shorter. TFTC

{*FTF*} @ 16:50. Well done on your first hide. Coordinates were spot on! Good timing too as we had just got back home when it was published. TFTC 3oldwkers. Have your first favourite point.
