Logs
Really well hidden! Couldnt sign as log was a bit wet, another rewarding find TFTC:)Didnt take photo of container so we dont give it away, but took a photo of what holds the log for proof since we couldnt sign
Just did a check and happy it still here
Once gps settled I was within 2 m of it.

The area looks very eroded, so we’re not convinced the cache is still here. Or maybe we just didn’t find it. We’ll try again another day. TFTC
Time to hang around Mandurah for a bit with a few detours for LGAs. TFTC.
Another tricky hide. Well done.

Walking with the geopup and enjoying the strong breeze and the sound of the waves; we walked in from the beach and it took a few minutes but found, logged and replaced, all in good condition TFTC
Found after a relatively short search thankfully, as the GPS was bouncing around somewhat.
We were up in Mandurah to catchup with good friends that were also visiting from much farther afield. Lunch was salubrious, and a good walk to burn off some of the extra goodness consumed in the later half of the meal was much needed.
To this cache we came. We had arrived in a downpour and things were clearing up and beginning to look promising indeed.
The walk was pleasant, with the beach absent of other people.
At GZ the search took a while. I was searching for what the hint suggested and so the cache was a surprise when it was found.
Just then the liquid sunshine returned. I was scrambling for my rain jacket and so was unprepared to take photos of two birds of prey that flew only metres from us. TFTC

Unfortunately I was unable to locate this cache today. I will add it to my list and hopefully return soon to claim the prize.
Up and down the dune a couple of times (once unintentionally) and with what seemed like more sand than foot in my shoes decided to call it and come back another day.

A morning out caching in the area led us to this cache. We did a few circles up and down and on a last up it was spotted!A very good hide. Log signed and replaced as found. Thanks macgyver1973.
Set out to grab a couple of caches on a day off. The beach seemed like a good place to be so we started with this one. This little guy had us searching for awhile but Leega finally made the call. Cool camo. We added our names to your log and returned your cache back to where it lives. Always good to do a welfare check on one that hasn’t been found for awhile and happy to say all well with this one. Favourite point coming up when I get a fresh batch. TFTC macgyver1973.
A good day to be out caching with axell33. We were up and down looking high and low, I knew we were looking for a bit of a needle in a haystack and the views were wonderful, but it was getting warm. Decided to go over old ground a bit closer and there the little fellow was! Good hide here. Thanks for the cache.

An extended day out with B12 started the morning in Kalamunda area and then ended the day on an evening drive towards Lakelands.
Great views to start the day and a lovely cool breeze for the evening, thanks macgyver1973for placing and maintaining this cache for myself and others to find.

Headed out with c10 for an evening caching run south towards Lakeland’s and returning to Cockburn via Baldivis to do the night cache there.
We had a great evening chasing caches along the coastline, with some amazing sunsets in this part of the world.
On the way back to Baldivis we shot kyzabra a text and met him at GZ with his boys to knock over the night Cache.
Overall an enjoyable evening and thanks to the local
COs for their caches.

An even bigger ditching of the bike was required to find this one. Thankfully it was a quick find since my keys were on my bike. Thanks for another hide along this gorgeous coastline.
Had me scratching my head gps was all over the show today, had exhausted all search areas when I was coming down I suddenly spied the sneaky little Camo. Thanks
Thanks Boofmuka for finding this one it just about did me in trying to get up there. Great place unfortunately to early for the sunset. Thanks Macgyver
After clambering through the soft sand it took a few minutes of searching to find the cache. TFTC
Hi there macgyver1973.
We found your cache **"Sunset ?? Selfie 4"** today. (This makes our find count 23552).
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 6 caches today & DNF'd 1.
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.
**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:** Nothing.
Thank you macgyver1973 for adding to our adventure.
Regards
Ian & Penny

I would say that I was lucky to find this one excellent camo and location another fave
Spot on cords here and a great view!

I saw this one published and thought why not. You’re only 50 once. So A quick call to Pommieparkin2 was made. Got her out of bed and ready to be picked up.
We parked nearby and made the walk through the soft sand to GZ. A few choices but spot on coords led us to the host and then the find.
Woohoo. A blank log and a {FTF} for us both.
Many thanks to macgyver1973 for placing and maintaining Sunset Selfie 4. I found it, I signed it, and put it back as found.
