16-Dec-22
Cache is where originally hidden, but without CO intervention, the cache magically changed colour, form and size. Have woven a little D Cell magic on this replacement to make it easier

Couldn't spot anything that fitted the hint within 20 m of GZ.

##Cache Maintenance Required please.##
This geocache has been brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit, to address the issue described in the logs.
The cache owner needs to either fix the problem or archive the listing, after picking up any geo-litter. In the meantime, I've temporarily disabled the cache page.
See the maintenance section of the [Geocache Hiding Guidelines](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines?expand=1#cachemaintenance).

If there is a good reason for a delay in enabling this cache, please post an update note log here on the cache page so that everyone will know what's going on.
When the maintenance is completed, you can re-enable the listing by entering an "Enable Listing" log, and then post an "Owner Maintenance" log to clear the "Needs Maintenance" attribute, if set.

I will check back in 30 days to be sure that the maintenance has been done, or that further information has been provided.

If there has been no action to repair the cache, or explain the situation, unfortunately I will need to Archive this cache. Caches archived because of lack of maintenance will not be unarchived.

The Geocaching Community needs to have a degree of certainty that a cache is out there to be found, and the CO has a responsibility to maintain their caches.

Thank you

Had a good look around but unfortunately no luck today
 
04-May-22
Unfortunately I was unable to locate this cache today. I will add it to my list and hopefully return soon to claim the prize.

Spoke to a previous finder and we’re pretty sure we were looking in the right place but no amount of digging was able to get the container to be produced.
 
04-May-22
3 sets of eyes didn’t find your cache! Better luck next time
 
04-May-22
Teamed up with CWA and Meme28. A big search but alas no find. Next time
 
25-Apr-22
Hi there DCell, I searched high, low, far and wide
But couldn’t find this hide!

The cache itself, wouldn’t show
I’ll have to come back to have another go.

I missed it, doesn’t mean it’s not there.
Maybe it’s somewhere very near.

It wasn’t where I thought it would be, so I guess thats a DNF for me!






 
15-Apr-22
We found lots of holes which took us a long time. Really good hiding spot and lots fun

18-Feb-22
Out for a morning run back to this area to try and clear out a few more caches. Looks like I will be coming back again as my find rate here has not been good. This one was one of the good ones. It took a bit of searching as my GPS was taking it's time to settle. It was a little difficult getting it out as it almost got stuck but I managed to wriggle it out.

Chwiliwr and I came north of the river today to do some of the newly published caches and others around them. Once at ground zero cache was found without problems. Log signed and the cache returned as it was found.

Thanks DCell for placing this cache for us to find.

Tftc. Nice quick find but has us wondering about the mo and a dnf close by....
 
19-Jan-22
A quick find. The container has water in it. Log wet but we were able to sign the logbook.TFTC DCell
 
05-Jan-22
Still on annual leave so jumped in the car this afternoon to clear up a bunch of local DCell camo caches Smile This was one on my hit list. Given the hot days lately I was wondering why recent logs were mentioning mud... until I arrived at GZ and realised where the container was! I am hugely indebted to the previous finder though as they made retrieval so much easier. In fact I can’t imagine how they even extracted it in the first place! Pleased to make the find here - TFTC
 
03-Jan-22
Found the location and groaned, sighted with the phone torch then spent 15 minutes retrieving ending up pretty muddy. Not sure if the fishing wire was once attached to something. We have made it hopefully a little easier for future retrievals. Tftc
 
24-Nov-21
Took a while to get out and ended up with muddy fingers! TFTC DCell
 
13-Nov-21
Took nearly as long to get our hands on the cache as it did to find it. Thanks DELL.
 
12-Nov-21
Find 9 of 10 on a short loop around Wembley Downs area on this palindromic date.

Could have been awkward with someone gardening nearby however they went to fill their watering can and so I got to swoop round quickly and grab. Not sure if this was ever attached to its camo but it isn't now. Also rather wet although the rite in the the rain paper is up to the challenge.

Was heading for the nearby IGA for a drink while on the way to Freo for a work meeting. This was too close to passby. Took a few minutes for the GPS to settle then noticed something that required closer inspection. Bingo! TFTC
 
09-Nov-21
A fairly quick find here.

TFTC DCell this is find #12937 for us.
 
22-Oct-21
Nice quick find, took long fingers to extract, thanks
 
18-Oct-21
Out with the crew tonight cleaning up the latest offerings from Dcell, a good mixture of new tricks and old ones. Made for a good night out with no DNFs this time mainly due to 4 sets of eyes. TFTH
 
18-Oct-21
Great hide TFTC
 
18-Oct-21
We headed out this evening to grab all the new DCell caches in the cool of night, we took the 4 of us - Barnzy, Cravo, Lachy, and Leg5 to make sure we didn’t have any DNFs and we managed to get lucky tonight and snagged them all.

There was some great camos in this lot, a great addition to the caching scene in WA.

Thanks DCell for the finds.
 
18-Oct-21
Out with B12, C10 and Leg5 mopping up a number of caches published during the course of the day, while we were all either at work or out of town.

Another quick find here this evening. Cheers DCell! Big Grin

Met up with Cravo & Barney at cockburn, drove to newly published caches. Lachlan went straight to first hide where we found the first hide, then plotted our hit list order. Enjoyed a variety of hides.

Thanks for the hide.
