After a bit of beating around the bush (bamboo) I finally came up with the goods, but it wasn't an ammo box as expected. I've seen warnings about snakes and scorpions and am being super careful where I'm putting my hands.
Find number 2 on a beautiful day to go caching in Malaysia. An nice walk up from the Planetarium. huntersw went on a little adventure over the hill, he now knows the geocaching rule "stick to the path". Found the right spot, and started the journey for "My Boomer Will Come Back" TB. SL TFTC
I did see the Frog Tenna card but as nothing was attached to it i didn't realise it was a TB just thought it was a cachers calling card.
This is a beautiful park. Found it after a longer than usual search, the coords were out by at least 58m.
These were the coords I got. You can try them if the originals won't work for you.
Didn't find the Frog TB inthe cache, may have gone missing.
Took the digi fish. The 2nd one I've ever found.
No swaps, cleaned out the container a bit it was full of dead ants.
Thanks for showing me a part of KL I would never have found.
Cheers from an Aussie cacher.

BUG DROP
I found this cache a year ago and dropped off the Frog Tenna Icon bug. It has not been picked up so I went back to see for myself. Sure enough, it was still there. I grabbed it to move it along. Picture in gallery to prove it was really there.
The cache corrdinates take you to a tree where there used to be a container with coordinates of the final (this would make it a multi). But, the container I saw a year ago is gone. The cache is at the "final coordinates" location. Those coordiantes are spot on.
I was still picking ants off me in the Old China Cafe 2 hours later (Great food N03 08.478 E101 41.841).
Took: The long enduring Frog Tenna Icon.
Left: Friednship Necklace TB
Left: Back To The Beach TB
(Both new arrivals in Malaysia.)

Our first cache in Malaysia, and the first cache in the new year. De Riders are showing us KL, this park is certainly worth a visit.
Thanks,

greetings from germany!

This one really hard to find due to the poor reception on the gps which wanted to change direction evry few steps.
Used the clue to search trouble was there are a lot of bamboo trees to search. There are several in a row as you approach. Go past these. be prepared for the ants!!
cache contents a bit damp needs some TLC.
A beautiful walk in a magnificent park just part of a wonderful natural area and with more caches nearby if you want a bit longer walk.Left Aussie Geocoin took TB.
Thanks for the experience we need a lot more cachesd like this.

Well I really tried hard to find this cache using the revised co-ordinates but alas no luck & I had 2 muggles (friends) searching with me as well but to no avail. Found a likely clump of bambo which was bang on GZ but no cache, I hope it was just me & that this cache is still alive & well. Nice park & found the other 3 caches that are within a few hundred meters of this one so it wasn't a total loss. Thanks for bring me to this lovely spot, although I not to keen on the hundreds of small ant bites I received on my arms searching for this one, but the highs outweigh the lows.
Great spot but a difficult walk from Sentral KL, had to cross a couple of freeways to get to the park. Once I found GZ it was an easy find.

My first cache outside of Australia. In KL for work, got to check out some of the sights. What a great park, but very quiet today - found the cache easily with no stealth required. TN, left Major Tom TB. Thanks
Found with Dysentry. This was my first find outside New Zealand, it was a hot day in the park. A lovely spot.
Cheers

After reading the log of the last visit (which was six months ago) I didn't really expect to find this one. But I was pleasantly surprised to find it right where the last cacher left it.
The outside of the container is suffering the ravages of the Malaysian climate, but the contents, such as they are, are in good condition. The log book is very slightly damp, but very usable. The pencil still needs to be sharpened. And the stash note is in excellent condition. Thanks for taking me to this wonderful park. TNLN.
(After leaving the gardens I decided to head off to "Bukit Jalil Park", but neither of the two teksi drivers I hailed knew where it was.
Oh well! I'll try again on Saturday.)
