Arrived at GZ and walked up and down a checked a few different objects and found nothing, monkeywand decided that one of the objects would make a very find cache host and set it aside as we continued the hunt.Another 10 minutes of finding nothing and ICN returned to what monkeywand had put aside and after a little wrangling produced the cache, no wonder it looked good for a cache host it was.An absolutely amazing piece of cache creation here, have a favourite. After getting washed out last week, I C Nothing, monkeywand, and I geared up for another caching adventure on a brisk Tuesday night.We began our quest close to home, heading to grab the finals after solving a few intricate puzzles in Banjup before winding our way eastward towards Forrestdale and Haynes.Each new location was ripe with hidden treasures, and the thrill of the hunt fueled our determination. With a mix of stealth and skill, we managed to uncover many elusive caches, though one slipped through our fingers, and by the end of the night I headed home with 15 finds and 1 DNF. Thanks go to GandJWA for placing and maintaining the Traditional cache Wattledale - Snake Neck Turtle for me and others to find.I added my name to the log at 21:56 on 16/7/2024.This is find number 9095 for me.

Out and about with Cirrus_WA and I C Nothing for another night for caching fun. This definitely deserves a FP for how long it actually took us to find
 
17-Jul-24
Another Tuesday caching for the MiC team.Tonight we starting in the local area cleaning up a few newer caches before seeing where the night takes us. A great night caching with Monekywand and Cirrus_wa.

We were hoping to complete this wee series and unfortunately Patch got a call; she was needed in the Start Box as two of our Team have gone down with the dreaded C19. All good, a return call, back to the geomobile and home for a quick change. This is a particularly clever piece of work and if we could give two FPs, we would. Tick, Tick, Tick, Tick. Thanks for a beauty.

This is a pack a lunch type drive from home for me, hence the reason its taken me so long to visit. This was my first stop. Took a while to locate this clever camo. Thanks for the hide.
 
22-Jun-24
Tftc, found immediately having worked out the hiding style of this series, nice craftanship though of the camo
 
31-May-24
I needed a good hint from a previous finder. Such good Camo. Coordinates are within 2m. I was so close to finding it last time but luck was not on my side. This deserves a favourite point from us for the workmanship.
 
19-May-24
As we parked close to this cache we tried it first but had no success, We moved on to some of the others within the series hoping to learn more about the cache styles in the series and how GandJWA thinks. After a few caches we returned and found this one really fast- we had looked at this exact object many times but hadn't worked it out. Amazing camo and super tricky to find, I think the difficulty rating could be raised a little but we loved it. Favourite point added (most caches within this series deserve a FP)
 
11-May-24

Hi there GandJWA - after a recent trip to Kalgoorlie then a rest period after, it was time to head out again - but this time to hunt for local caches. We decided to head first to Jarrahdale and then back towards Armadale via Albany Highway. We found this cache at 0115pm after a short search Big Grin - and the container and log are as noted in the Fieldnotes below. TN, LN, SL. Thanks to GandJWA for this cache - the 4th of 7 finds for the day.

FieldNotes: The cache and log were both found in good condition. The owner of this cache deserves a FavPt for the work put into it, but I can't give him/her one, so I'll give it to the cache instead.

Knocked off the Wattledale series this afternoon mostly on foot, the last one by car.
I’m impressed by the thought, effort and variety of cache produced by GandJWA.
This one is nicely camoed and took a bit of searching.
A favourite point from me.

Came with the family but had no luck in finding it with them so they headed off home while Chwiliwr and I continued to hunt. GZ was always at the tree BUT IT IS NOT THE TREE.
Chwiliwr sent a message to the CO and they headed down and said no they could see it.
Headed back to where I was hunting and bugger me there it was.
Blank log so joint *FTF* with Chwiliwr.

Nice to meet you both. Hope to see you at the Narrogin Event.

Thanks for placing this cache for us to find.
