TftcDoing a fathers day afternoon geocaching session with my son and daughter in law.
Found this geocache back in January when visiting my grandson from the UK who is the CO. Enjoyed the day out learning all about his hides!
Enjoying a walk around Lake Gwelup and deviated to locate this one. So glad! TFTC, jamesknowlson!
A quick find here while I had a couple of spare hours in the area. Thank you for the cache jamesknowlson.
I was just walking along tugging random items as I went when one gave way in my hand and I nearly fell flat on my faceWell at least I had the cache in hand with no damage done.Thank you jamesknowlson

Well its been a very busy last couple of weeks. I was out of the state for one of them. I will get out there this weekend and provide an update. Hopefully a fix too!
Well found the host, but when I extracted the cache there was nothing attached to the chain! Oh, and as others have mentioned, coords are a good 10m out.
TFTC. Today is a leap day. I have an extra day to plan Geocaching. I planned to collect as many smiley as I can from Warrick Station to Stirling Station.I used 10 minutes tried to find the cache but no luck. Then I read the previous log and found an extra hint. GPS is a bit off. Thanks for jamesknowlson hiding and maintaining the cache.
First find on a Saturday afternoon cache hunt through Gwelup and North Beach. Used KB's coordinates to narrow down the search area. Thanks for the hide.
Im beginning to doubt the accuracy of the bureau.when it say 38, app 35.they clearly havent just spend half an hour searching for an elusive cache. For me, there was a decent error in your coordinates to where I eventually found the cache but it was a combo of bad luck, stupidity (I should have read the listing and past logs long before I did) and lets face it, heat exhaustion, that had me searching so long. To save others similar torture, I recommend not searching in the middle of the day when theres a heat wave and heading closer to S31 52.089 E115 47.441 or E115 47.440 where both the satellite image and my device suggested was GZ. Thanks for the opportunity to learn some lessons and for this cache.
Great to be out and about exploring the south Perth foreshore and north of the river.Thanks for the cache.
Tree cover made pinpointing difficult and I had to widen my search, but figured it out in the end.You have done well to fit another cache along this strip and the visitors to the nearby Caravan Park looking for a cache fix will be grateful.Nice to have another cache less than 1 km from home.Cleverly done and appreciate the time and effort here.Thanks and a favourite point
Out and about on a caching escapade with the Cockburn Crew. This was one of the stops. Cheers jamesknowlson!

Knocked of a few today.Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day.

Coordinates had me in from the fence line however the name of the cache suggests the right area to be have a FP
**FTF** Was literally about to head out the door to Bunnings when this new cache pinged through. Perfect timing and location! Parked up where suggested and could see GZ was deserted... so a reasonable chance of a rare FTF Coords were bouncing all over the place so spent a few mins checking a variety of hosts before the brain kicked into gear and the find was made. Pleased to see a blank log. Nice hide here - have a fave point. TFTC
After being involved with the placing of this cache I will now log a find. Thanks for the cache
