In Perth for the test match. This one was in the direction of my morning walk. Clever! Thanks for placing this cache AlliedOz #3052
Out with Chwiliwr doing a few caches.Found and signed then replaced as found.Thanks for the cache.
After doing the cache in near the casino the Better Half and I were walking back to where we had parked the car on the other side of the river and decided to stop and look for this cache.We made a quick find of the cache today. Log was signed and the cache returned as it was found.Thanks AlliedOz for placing this cache for other cachers to find.(We don't know where the cache was on the day of our DNF but it wasn't at the spot where we found it today.)
My first physical cache in the city of Perth itself, after having found 614 caches around the Boddington area for the last 5 days. Our family are staying nearby, so we took a walk to Optus Stadium to nab my 12,000th geocache (the virtual at the bridge) and view the iconic new stadium, it looks incredible and I can't wait to go on the HALO walk on Thursday and then the cricket on Friday! This cache was a fun find, it took a bit of time to figure out the correct spot and I got lots of glue on my hands (unnecessarily), but I soon had the cache in hand. Awesome container. TFTC AlliedOz, now whenever I see your intro to the prizes section on the GDU podcast, I can say that I've found your cache on the bridge behind you!
A quick find with excellent coordinates and spectacular views. Thanks for the cache AlliedOz
Sweet! Tried to find the predecessor last year but it was missing. Late night walk back from doing the caches around the Stadium meant few people about so I could set about to search. My find was even accompanied by a display of fireworks. TFTC.
Awesome cache idea, loved this one, found it on my previous run over this bridge, but had to come back with a pen to log. TFTC!
Thanks Allied Oz for this clever cache! A favourite for the container and the location!
Found it after a longish search. The position was slightly out for us, once at the right spot, we made a quick find.We also left a brand new waterproof log scroll.TFTH
Out caching the City with Everlasting on a beautiful spring Sunday.Slightly different from the original I think, an excellent hide.Thanks AlliedOz, a FP from us.
Excellent camo Accompanied with ILT. we find it and sign the log as EV and ILT.Thanks for the cache and hunt FP from me
Quick find here but had to wait for the right moment to make the grab. First time walking over this bridge and enjoyed the views all around. Will come back another day for the lab! Tftc
Out and about after work to pick up a few lab caches and take a peek at the new stadium. Lived here for nearly 10 years and this is the first chance to see the new addition to the Perth landscape.Looks great and the a great cache as well. Cache found quickly and in good nick. Log signed and returned to whence it came.A big thanks to the cache owner for making this cache available to be found.Cheers
Noticed this one and as I was out decided to pop over and have a look. Loved the hint and the hide although the wind nearly blew me off the bridge. Tftc.

I see you know you 3d printing well sir.A worthy cache for a favourite point.
Found it but couldnt access the log so I signed a piece of paper and put it in there Cheers Steveo
On Christmas Day I had an event close by and the group tried to find this but sadly it was missing, great to see it back and going again, nice hide hereIn Perth for work today I headed over to Optus stadium for a walk around and to find a few caches before walking back to the city. 15 finds for the day dodging the rain as it fell. Thanks for the cache
I spend a lot of time in the area, both for work and pleasure. Nabbing this cache was therefore easy, although it took a while because I was too busy looking for the original cache type and shape. Add fav for the nod to a previous cache (arguably one of the best weve had in a while) with the listing and creativity. Cheers AlliedOz!

Found with the event group in the early evening. Such a great view of the river and colourful lit up stadium as well as a lively atmosphere with all the roller skaters doing their thing. TFTC, AlliedOZ!
Walked over here with a small group after the nearby event this evening. I'd previously found the Valoforce hide so was keen to tick off this tribute too. Most had previously made the find so this was a chance for me, MJDV and James the event host to add our names to the log as well 
Many hands made for a fast find 
And a very worthy tribute container too, nicely done. No problems here - TFTC

Out and about with Geotrakka. Grabbing a few caches before a nearby event . A great view from here .Some logs signed as N20 This is my 13540 find Thankyou AlliedOzfor placing and maintaining this cache for others to find .
Caching the area with Meme28, blends well to the surrounding. TFTH#3092
Very tenacious cache here, sitting on top of the world. The greatest cache in the world some would say!!!Cheers AlliedOz for placing another fine cache here. Enjoyed it as much as your cache description!Sporting a wind swept look on the bridge, found with Blue Mountain Chick! Signed as BMC and M28.
As we crossed the bridge, we could see people high above us climbing to the top. Brave souls!They were so high above us they had no idea what we were doing or looking for. A short search, revealed something that was just a bit out of place and we found the cleverly constructed and well camouflaged container. Log signed. Thanks AlliedOzDomsky
AlliedOzs 3D printing skills are the best. Captured this picture to disguise myself while returning the cache. TFTC
Nice quick find, great hint, love the tribute.So our day was pretty planned out, we had a mission in mind and knew we would clock up a few kms today! We jumped off the train at Elizabeth Quay and caught a CAT straight up to yesterdays DNF to rectify and after a success there then headed straight to the Optus Stadium to clean up the area around here!We had an awesome wander around Optus Stadium collecting smilies! Was a great day out, we ended up doing nearly 20kms today as we had to do several laps around Optus Stadium in our crazy quest but thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you AlliedOz for placing Matagarup Bridge... A tribute for us and others to find and enjoy!
Find 19 of 19 plus 8 Ad Lab locations, on a lovely 24km bike ride from Burswood through Lathlain, Vic Park and Kensington for lunch at one of our favourite hipster cafs then back over the Causeway and Matagarup bridges, with a cheeky pint at the Camfield to finish. Today's entertainment was mostly provided by DCell with every cache unique and unexpected, not to mention the searching which was consistently discombobulating, often resulting in finds that were serendipitous.All good here! Any cache that name checks "The D" is worth a favourite. TFTC AlliedOz!
Found it , the only time I have to find some caches here is on the way to the footy. Excellent camo, good job. Tftc
I tried to find some yellow faces with Red Cat to Matagarup Bridge.Thanks AlliedOz for hiding and maintaining the cache. It is an easy find and the cache is in good condition
Wow, what a cache. I loved the predecessor and love this hide too. A little walk with MDV from the western side of the bridge during free parking hours. Thanks.
Visiting from the UK so wanted a couple of Australian caches logged while we were here and what a fantastic location this one is! Loved this cache, very clever hiding
Very nicely done and a fitting tribute to Valoforce so have a FP.TFTC AlliedOz this is find #16917 for us.
