After having no luck at the Camo Tree, we headed off with the sulks. Fortunately Spot had hands on this one pretty quickly thanks M1973
We walked past this one so many times before finding it, awesome camo. TFTC!-E+E
Second attempt...we weren't even close the first time glad we came back for a better look
Out and about again, a tough day with finds. 8 DNFs and only 2 finds and a lot of time wasted. I called it early as I lost the caching feeling today. This was one of the few finds.This is 15889.Thanks to macgyver1973 for the caches I have found.
This cache has taken us 3 days to find we have came back every day because I can't give up until I find it partner and son happily posing in the photo for me the partner and I have a little challenge we do to see who is the first person find the cache and its safe to say I won this one we are very competitive great cache if I didn't turn around I wouldn't have found it

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 cacheThe cache is a few meters away from the coordinate. The tree may affect the GPS. Extended search is required sometimes.
Have had to put a new camo cache in play as the previous cache which was a custom made one has found a new owner(hopefully) which as we all know is not how the game plays is it?
Oops
The original cache just whistled out “ I’m over here”
It’s biodegradability has blended really well

Nice cache! I didn't think I'd find it with all the grass at the moment but a surprise success
Forgot my pen though...

Found with rainbow Scjaz and geokids A and Z. Beautiful day for Geocaching. Great cammo! Have a favourite point Tftc
Found this one on a day out with team Scjaz. Very sneaky but a great hide Thanks for the cache guys
A morning out caching in the area led us to this cache. We spotted this one quite swiftly another very good hide. Log signed and replaced as found. Thanks macgyver1973.
Found it pretty well thanks to the description. Good cache! Can fit small swaps
With a good bit of recent rain and some good sun. The ground cover was overgrown off the path. I did not want to trample the area too much.
Will be back
Will be back
Find 14 of 32 with two DNFs on a bike ride from Marlee Reserve, to Black Swan Lake and then across to San Remo for lunch, then back again once we were fed. Today was all about numbers, needing 52 to make 300 for the month. We had 20 from the morning and 32 left to get, so this was perfect. Some of these were not quick finds, mainly because of the creativity and variety of macgyver1973's hides, which were pretty much all awesome!
Yeah, this is a good one from the workshop. Nicely done.
TFTC macgyver1973!

Out grabbing some caches before the storm sets in. We found the brown stick the other day so we thought we would hunt for the black stick. This one had us searching for about 5 minutes before Leega made the call, a lot quicker than the brown stick. We added our names to your log and returned your cache back to where it lives. Cool cache another favourite point coming when my stocks are replenished. TFTC macgyver1973
Found with axell33 and the geopups with a storm whipping up around us it was windy and wild so we were glad to find this one before the rain came! A bit of a search, but not as long as your brown stick. Loved the creativity! Thanks for the cache and greetings from Baldivis.

Nice to catch up with Mistraluna today on a beautiful Summers day. SL TFTC macgyver1973
On our way back to the car the twins didn’t think I was heading the right way for a bit but soon realised the path through the bush was there.
Once we got to GZ we set about the search and Mr Z claimed the prize after a couple of minutes.
This was by far our most admired cache of the day and a favourite point is coming your way.
Thanks macgyver1973 for placing this cache for me to find, this is find number 1964 for me.

This took way longer to find than hoped. I searched all the wrong places, constantly repeating “Black stick” in my head. Finally I discovered the huge matchstick and continued my ride. Thanks.
Following a quiet couple of weeks on the caching scene for us, we headed out to claim a few smilies today and grabbed this one while we were out and about. Cheers and TFTC.

Another clever cache! One would think you have a lot of time on your hands. BoofMuka found this one
Out grabbing a couple of caches with PollyMichele & Geotrakka. I spied this one really quickly. Thanks
Out with B12 expecting the notifications to start coming through however not to be the cache so we went looking for some recently published caches TFTH
Out for an evening caching run with Cravo10 down to Madora Bay to cleanup a small patch of caches.
Managed to find 5 of the 6.
Some interesting containers and managed to snag them in good time.
Thanks Macgyver for the caches.

After finding a nearby puzzle cache i continued on to find the 4 latest macgyver caches.
All 4 very creative caches were found with one that took a bit of searching. TFTC macgyver1973
