Logs
We had just found two adventure labs in the nearby reserve when TaurusSix suggests its time for another normal cache. A quick scan of the map shows one not too far away.We drive and manage to park in the nearby car park, but in the farthest spot possible. This just presented an opportunity to get a few more steps in for the day. At GZ it we did a lap around and had not spotted the cache. We consulted the cache listing again in case we missed some key piece of information. No. Around we start again and this time we spot a unusual arrangement. Underneath we find the cache, but not the container we had in mind. The log was marked with our symbols and all was put back as it was found. Our thank we send to J2V for thinking to hide a cache in this place for use to find.
Quick find here after waiting for a couple of groups to continue on there way. Tftc
Passing through the area on a fine winters day collecting a couple of smileys on the way. Thanks @J2V for placing Perry Lakes 1962 for the GC community to find !!
Out with Guiness12 and GeoDog on a wet Sunday. Exploring new areas geocaching ! A quick find on our Lap of the lake. TFTC
Out this way to watch a grandson in the ACC cross country racing on a wet day; 3 hours to kill before his race so I set off to find as many caches in the time and energy I had, all found with ease and in good condition TFTC
Nice quick find, love the ease of these finds.Drove up to Bold Hill to continue our training for our impending Bibb E2E journey....17kgs on the back and another 12km walk with many geocaches to find along the way! Thank you J2V for placing and maintaining Perry Lakes 1962 for us and others to find and enjoy!
This huge park and of course, near almost every cache, muggles were sitting. A muggle was on the bench too focused on the kookaburra at his feet to notice me. Took a lap before I found it. This one can have a fav for the series. TFTC
A lucky day around Perry Lakes that all 7 smileys were collected. The mint tin was replaced by a tube. Thanks J2V maintaining the cache.
We looked high and low - previous logs gave little away. Dug around in the obvious places but came up empty. Sadly a DNF for us today.
Looked everywhere but where it is hidden, no comments helped. Getting braver in where I stick my fingers tho.
I remember being here once before and not having any luck and I come here again and I can't for the life of me find where this cache is located on the tree.
I look all over and stick my hand in holes for nothing.
Somebody please send a helpful dm for something so simple

Looked at the wrong structure for a fair while, when I checked theap.again and found the right one, I spotted the hiding place right away. TFTC 
Tried not disturb the local eight-legged fauna too much - found with friend Kel_H TFTC
That was a very clever hide. Found without any trouble. I can remember going to the then Empire Game at Perry Lakes.
SIC team ( Sir Fancy , I c nothing, cirrus_wa) are out again for another day of caching . All caches found and in good condition.
Got spun around a little bit when we first got out of the car and headed to the wrong hide potential, once things had settled we noticed the error in our location and headed to where we needed to be.
SirFancy spied the cache after a couple of minutes and we were back on our way.

A clear and cooler day was highlighted by meeting up with SirFancy, I C Nothing & a couple of junior cachers for some fun running around North Perth & Floreat.
Our main target for the day was to complete the new Commonwealth Games Lab and while we were in the area grabbing whatever finds we could get our hands on.
It was fun excursion NOR and I’m pleased to have finished today with 9 finds, 5 Adventure Labs and 1 DNF.

Doing a lap of Perry Lakes this cache was our next stop on our loop... I quickly discovered this nicely hidden cache
Thanks J2V [^]

A quick find today, whilst out walking with Tex the kelpie. Thanks for the cache
Headed over here for a Christmas Day walk - a very hot day to be here but I do like to escape the Christmas hustle & bustle for an hour or two and the unfound caches here made this an appealing destination Unsurprisingly given the day (and the heat!) there was hardly anyone else here - another bonus Most caches were nice easy finds which was much appreciated; the only one to cause trouble was the Boardwalk which lives to fight another day I took the comment about this one being attached to a 1962 era host too literally and went walking straight past GZ looking for a piece of infrastructure... soon realised my error and relocated to find the right host!

TFTCThought I had the right tree and after careful investigation I was right. Relatively quiet here this evening… only cars passing by and 2 dog owners and one jogger passed while I was discreetly doing signing duties. I’m sure they were wondering where I appeared from as I came out.
