Wow another great duck cache. We were ready to give up after a long search and seeing that it has received a recent haircut. The poking and parting made it a lot easier.
Fourth time looking and cant believe it took SO long! We SWEAR we looked there before!
4th time looking and cant believe it took so long. Swear we looked there before, but massively satisfying. Great cache duck!
Spent 30 minutes looking high and low, getting covered in charcoal but had no luck
We were out for a relaxing day of caching so what on earth induced us to go looking for duck_43 caches. Especially ones we've DNF'd previously. We didn't need the GPS, we knew where to go for Number 10. Arriving at the GZ we knew far too well, we started looking again. A sistema, we kept thinking... how hard can a sistema be? It wasn't till we found it that we wondered why it took so long. Great, that's one blue face wiped off Wireless Hill! TFTC duck_43. Took Signal's tour TB.
Went and checked it out and cannot find it myself. Will need to make another one .
A beautiful walk here, and it must be amazing in the spring. We had a pretty good search around GZ today, but no luck for us. Too good for our eyes today. Thanks duck43Domsky
After a lot of frustrating looking I stumbled upon it just as we were going to leave. Great hide! I have placed a TB in for someone to help along its way. TFTC
We werent very confident in finding this, but after a good poke around there it was TFTC
We gave it a good long search but failed to turn up any needles in this haystack.
My second attempt here. Only took me two tries, loads of pokes and maybe an hour to finally claim this smiley. Love a good duck cache! TFTC
Out with BJA3 and Arnott Family picking up smiley's after the AGM.Thanks for placing this hide for us and others to enjoy finding!
Geocache HQ thinks it requires maintenance. It doesnt. It is in perfect condition !
Ok...duck 43 2nd challenge of the day!On my own so only 1 set of eyes and after reading previous logs had an idea of what to look for....was pretty sure I had the correct host based on pretty damn good GZ and was rewarded with the prize shortly after....actually, not shortly, make that 25 mins later but well worth it! You know a duck 43 is not going to be easy so gotta put the time in! Normally I would say I hate this type of (blank) for a hide but for a duck I'll go for it!Well done again on another amazing clever hide! Fave point again! You are the master and I hope this encourages more to put out more clever hides like yours!Thank you duck 43 for placing and maintaining (always) Number 10 for us and others to find and enjoy!PS the wildflowers were spectacular today!
After the dnf on the other cache I came to a similar GZ location flora wise and so I gave about 10min looking and gave up. Thanks
Took a fair while to find this one. Couldn't see anything that resembled a cache at GZ, so after a while resorted to using senses other than sight and found it a shortly thereafter. Thanks for the cache duck 43
Oh man, still don't know how we found it but we did. Lots of searching and nearly giving up, then restrategised and found it.
Had a good long look for this one and got poked many times but finally got lucky and had cache in hand! Thanks duck
Took so long! Wasn’t about to give up on a duck cashe tho. Eventually had the cashe in hand.
Happy Easter #10.
Wanted this to be the 10th find for our Easter cache hunt day and so it was. (apart from the muggled one) Time for home now as it is nearly dark.
Great park and set of caches.

After a solid 20 minutes of looking I still found nothing. I’ll probably come back later to see if I can.
Spent way to much time looking. No caching eyes on this one will be back on the next over. TFTC
Teamed up with Geotrakka after the WestOz AGM event [GC9YF7Y](https://coord.info/GC9YF7Y) to grab a few smilies about the place.
After doing the Morse Code lab we wandered down here to have a go at this one. weren't getting anywhere after 15 minutes or so, so we resorted to PAF where we received some pretty explicit instructions on where it was. Still took a bit but we got there in end. I reckon this one is getting close to the 'evil' category.
duck 43 I found your cache at 3:14pm, this was the 15th of 15 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 7697. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Down for the AGM. A great excuse to cache the area. Last one for the day. After finishing off the nearby Ad lab. Granett and I were at the correct host but just couldnt spot it. PAF confirmed we were in the right spot - very tricky. Heres a fav. Have loved experiencing the duck 43 factor today. Thanks for the effort you go to - we appreciate you!
Found it. TFTC duck43. I was in the area and Just had an hour to spare. I actually spent most of it here. But hey, It's a duck cache. I was in for the long haul and I was finally rewarded. Another masterpiece and another duck cache under my belt. Fav point here. Replaced as found
Thank you! Morning run and errands in the area. Good opportunity to stop for a cache or three. Happy to make the find here.
Doing a bunch of caches around south west Western Australia. TFTC.
Was worried on a dnf, but perseverance paid out.

Another fantastic cache! Working against the clock with the weather and a pending flight- a systematic search was in place, to ensure thAt a smiley was achieved!
Thanks, another fav point your way!
Found it with IATEAGERM and _DaughtersofEve_. Devious and mean! My 461st find.
Again a year later..no luck but will return..lovely morning for a stroll in this beautiful park
Finally on the second attempt, last look at a spot already checked. Should have found it earlier
Really liked this one. Not at all
what I expected. I’d award a favourite if I had any left.

It's been some time since our last trip to Duck country, so The Machman and I set out very early this morning for another trip to see how many we could find.
Mixed results today with several DNFs but luckily mostly finds. Most were a good 5-10min hunt as expected.
A surprisingly quick find here, could have been a long hunt. TFTC

Bringing in the young methodical troops worked. Found with Redruthguy, Probsty and Phillario.
Thanks again Duckie.
Thanks again Duckie.
With cmb212, phillario and probsty.
Came back with reinforcements. Searched, poked, prodded scraped all around. We then became more methodical and hey presto.

Hi duck 43, found “Number 10” today with Phillario, cmb212 and Redruthguy. Out for a caching day for Phillarios birthday. This took us a while, but after a methodical hunt it was found at a comfortable location for me. Find number 2016 for me
Toughest find yet! Well done to Probsty for the discovery!
So tough but very satisfying once found and incredible that we’d missed it so many times!
Methodical rather than chaotic and desperate wins the day!

I went out with the hope of finding a few of Ducks caches up here in between showers this morning.
This one was my first one and didn’t have much success. How can a small sistema container hide so well?!
And those muggles can really creep up on you!
Thanks for the hide duck 43

Re-attempted with the rest of the team, without the rain. No luck! Will attempt another time…
