By duck 43 on 17-Jan-23. Waypoint GCA40M5

Found with Skycat12 who had the idea for the cunning location. Retrieval was a bit tricky but we persevered! Nice hide, thank you!

Second or third time here and very happy to make the find.Log in multiple pieces..prob previously got wet? Replaced carefully as found. Thanks. Beautiful spot.

TFTC, log was soaked and falling apart so we couldn't add our name, we have a photo if you need proof,,. Tricky find tho

Wow what a great hiding spot! Nice and peaceful here too! TFTC

Another great hideAs an experienced cacher, you should have this in hand within 5 10 min. Lots of spots just need find the right one

There was no one in the carpark, we had the platform to ourselves, sport field was empty.. The stars couldn't have aligned better for a cache hunt but we were still fiddling and feeling and at a loss to where this elusive cache could be for wayyy too long. Until... Oooh.. that's a sneaky hide.... TFTC duck 43.

Muggles camping on the platform

Woo hoo! Very pleased to find a difficult duck so quickly. At last being an organist has paid off!

cool thanks

Too good for me, no idea where it would be

2 out of 3 ain't bad this evening. Tricky one here, will have to come back another day.

It was a beautiful day, and there was a small window in the morning when it wasn't too hot, so we decided to go on a duck hunt. We found another batch of excellent caches that deserved favourite points.

Nice a quiet here. This new platform over looks a previous cache that I spent hours looking for which is now archived. Took a few trips around the platform before I spotted a little something. TFTC

Nice little sneaky hide. TFTC!

Someone was using the platform today to take photos of the Birdlife.

Gorgeous spot. Just about to give up when decided to have another go where I'd already Beeb. Bingo. Took a while to get out though. Tftf fave

Out on another Duck hunting day with The Machman and FelixII.

Took a few minutes of methodical hunting but The Machman came up with the find here. TFTC

Full time nomads since February 2014, here to visit family.

Mr Felix headed out with SpatialRiq and TheMachman for a days caching. The plan was hatched for a duck run but of course they just couldn't go past all those other caches!

A fun day out with friends, long time between caching runs together.

Out on another cache run with Spatial Riq and FelixII.
Cheeky little hide , but Quick find at GZ. TFTC

After a frustrating attempt over in Kardinya we headed north to attempt this one. All in great shape here. Thanks for constructing this baby and finding a nice spot to locate it.

Outrageous! There was a bird watcher on the platform. Had to come back half and hour later for a quick find

Fot my fingers on it quite early in the search but it took a little longer to retrieve it. All good here. TFTC Prof. Duck. Have a favourite for your work

Got lucky here which was good because the mower man was out in force and grass clipping were blowing wildly. Wasn’t the first or second place I searched but methodical proved successful. Thanks.

Started searching and found the cache laying out in the open.
Log signed and cache replaced where we believe it belongs.
The hide surely would have had us searching for a while.

TFTC duck 43 this is find #14947 for us.

After a few minutes of searching Mr OOH YEH spotted the very sneaky hide TFTC duck 43

The actual time I spent looking for this cache was small but I was on the platform a long time. No sooner had I started my search when another couple of people came wandering along the foreshore. They stopped for what felt like ages looking at the wetland and the birds. Eventually they left and my search began. Thanks for another quality hide duck. A favourite point.

Out and about again, a beautiful day so I headed along the south side of river doing Lab Adventures and a couple of trads.

Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day. Generally quick finds today, managed to find under 10 minutes.

Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides I found.

As I mark another milestone of course I wanted it to be with a duck cache..no one here today so plenty of time for a muggle free search..found and retrieved..cache and log in excellent condition tftc 2000 down..

Out and about caching before tonight’s event with with Meme28, I C Nothing, Cirrus_WA and Sir Fancy, Some logs signed MICKS. TFTH!

Have been thinking about this hide for the last couple of weeks since my DNF and thought I must have been on the right track but not been able to get my fingers to the cache.
Today I returned and started on my hunch and this time managed to just feel a discrepancy and turn up the cache.

Joined up with the rest of the MICKS (Meme28, I C Nothing, Kapelula & SirFancy) for an afternoon and evening of caching around Attadale, Como & South Perth.
Always enjoy a successful night out with friends and this was no different and I headed home with 14 finds, 1 event attended & 1 DNF.

(I’m not a geologist I just like puns)

Meme28, I C Nothing, Cirrus_wa, Kapelula and Sir Fancy are out for another day of caching. Collecting a few caches that have been on our hit list or yet to be found that needs rectifying. Tftc all found in good condition. Signed the log MICKS

DNF. I’m going really badly today.

Quick find here given it is a duck. SL TFTC

Out with the 2N's from Canberra and 1 of the BakerBoys3 doing a few Duck caches and the cache was soon found
TFTC

TFTC found with Avreno and 2NS

After one circuit around the structure, I tried something different and put my hands on the cache.

Close to giving up after 20 minutes but with some fiddling it was found

Unfortunately I was unable to locate this cache today. I will add it to my list and hopefully return soon to claim the prize.

Spent about half an hour but just couldn’t get it done today, gave up the search when we were joined by a photographer looking for ospreys nearby.

Was just going to sit down when this was published. Chwiliwr got his boots back on and off we went.
Chwiliwr ended up finding the cache and I signed the blank log.
*FTF* with the group that turned up while we were looking.

Thanks duck 43 for another cache.

Managed to get here in time to share the *FTF*

Neat little Viewing platform here, placed my hands over this without know u till it was unveiled by the next set of hands.

Thanks for the

Joint *FTF* here tonight. I was in the middle of a work call, while eating dinner when the ping came through. Once I finished both tasks I headed out. After a reasonable search with many hands on deck, literally too, Chwiliwr turned up the cache. Cheers duck 43!

Thanks duck43 for the new hide. Add FP
