Thank you! I teamed up with papillion367 on this sunny winter day to find a couple of caches I was particularly keen on, and continue on a series we had been working through for a while.Happy to make the find here, with papillon367 doing all the hard work.
Thank you for the cache IC Nothing, we came prepared for this one and used our TOTT.Teamed up with ullyssia on a beautiful day for caching. For our excursion SOR, we tackled the southern end of Thomsons Lake and continued the "Language" series a bit further East. A very enjoyable and productive day!
Thankfully this is far lower than my previous visit. I can armed with a step stool and my pole but the pole was more than adequate. Safe to assume the pole wont be flying to Canberra. Thanks for the hide.
Try to find it but cannot. It is too hot today to have a bush walk. Will try in different season with preparation.
We came, we saw, we did not conquer! Even with the local TOTTs that have been left behind by other finders there is no way we could get this, way too high and we don't own a proper tool for this type of madness....phewf, taking it up a notch, saz gonna have to go online and look into this! TBH, even if we got it down I doubt we would have gotten it back up
Finding a few caches in the Thompson Lake Nature Reserve, this cache was one we stopped for on our walk... Luckily we came prepared with our TOTT & we were successful in finding the treasure TFTC I C Nothing
CO was not kidding about needing a long pole, we very much struggled to get the cache back up.
The log was soaking wet so we added a new piece of paper and put it in a zip lock bag.

Phew! What an absolute mission that was! We did not read the TOTT needed, luckily I'm close to 6 foot to get it down with nearby TOTT. Unfortunately when we got it down the logbook is saturated. We added another page to sign with a ziplock bag. TFTC!
Thanks for setting this baby up ICNothing. We found the cache and made our mark on a somewhat damp, though serviceable log. Gasket missing which has lead to some water ingress but likely not worth maintenance at this stage.
Tall pole is an understatement but a fun cache had to put it a little lower we couldn't get it back to the ridiculous hieght
My first fishing cache success!..co ordinates spot on..quick retrieval..log damp but signable tftc
We spotted the cache and retrieved it easily enough, but putting it back, the fishing pole did not want to behave. TFTC
Down in the big smoke for West Oz committee meeting. Of course I will use the journey wisely to grab some caches whilst here. Thanks for placing this cache -it added to my smilies for the day
Meme must have been on her tippytoes for this one!

Chwiliwr's pole was delivered Friday so today we decided to try it out before returning home. Made the long, slow walk to ground zero. Took a bit to spot the cache but no time at all to retrieve it. Log signed and cache was then returned to where it was found.
Thanks I C Nothing for placing this cache for us to sign.

Found it. TFTC I C nothing. Came to this area to do the On Ya Bike series and just couldn't resist the challenge to venture a bit further into the park. Replaced as found.
Took a bit to spot it but without a pole and not so good climbing skills, luck wasn’t on my side. I will be back.
Beautiful day to take a walk in the bush with richlink. Cache found without problems. Thanks.
Spotted the ring immediately and had no trouble retrieving with ILT. Thanks I C Nothing
Technically FOUND it, couldn't get the sucker down even with the experience of KB! Stupid wind.....
We tried twice, for over forty minutes total but just couldn’t get the ring out of the greenery to free it. Hopefully someone else manages to free it.
We were out this way the other week and made our way to this one to see what we were up against. We spotted the cache and returned today with a TOTT we thought would get the job done. Leega took to the task and we soon had the cache in hand. We signed the log book and now for the part that had us worried. It took a few minutes but once again Leega had the cache returned to where it lives. TFTC I C Nothing.
Wow, here again with axell33 after sizing up this one last week! Some money was spent, a delivery was made and we had a new TOTT! More sizing up and then into it, tongue in, out, side to side and we had it in hand, log signed and our biggest concern was replaced with relief as the cache was returned to its home. Quite enjoyed this cache, a favourite from me. Thanks and greetings from Baldivis.
This cache got me excited. I recently brought a rod and was keen to try it however many other similar caches are too public. I arrived and like a kid in a candy store went about finding it. Took me neck pain before spotting it. Turns out I need to hone my skills as I slung the cache into another tree!!!
After some finessing I had my hands on a nice pathtag. TFTC Have fav.

This is THE BEST Cache ever! Thank you so much ICNothing for placing this one. I placed a meme28 pathtag for the next lucky one to find this cache, its a lovely wlak through here with the lillies in full bloom!!! Very chuffed! Favpoint of course, shame I couldnt give it 10 favs...
Thanks I C Nothing for placing and maintaining this cache. Out and about with Barnzy12 getting a few smily faces.
Took a little while to spot, then had to figure out how to use Barnzy’s fishing pole. Got to down, signed and replaced. TFTH
Out and about with Cravo10 to grab a few local caches that have been in the “too close to home to avoid getting” pile.
Thanks for the fun.
Thanks for the fun.

PP1 was busy on the golf course so I was grateful to team up with Everlasting for a lovely walk in this reserve. She very kindly let me go the honours on this oneand oh boy did I make hard work of it. When I finally got it back the host branch snapped off & I had to find another & start all over again.

Headed back to this lovely regional park for a spot of fishing today.
We must have been using the right bait as we managed to reel this one no problems.
TFTC I C Nothing and congratulations on your 1000th find Meme28 this is find # 10070 for us.

Woohoo!!! FTF @ 7:15am
After getting the prize on the puzzle up the road a bit I couldn't just walk past this one. Spent a few minutes before I eventually spotted the bison and had a little pole malfunction as I was trying to do the retrieval but managed to muddle through somehow. Pole fixed, cache replaced and I was on my way.
I C Nothing I found your cache at 7:15am, this was the 2nd of 14 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 6155. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.
