Found nice and easily on an early morning visit to this great park Plenty of wildflowers out still and fortunately most of the muggles where staying to the main tracks. We partook in a late breakfast early smoko at Zamias which was delicious after finding this cache.

Another great cache in this incredible park. Paused to look at the memorials on our way in. TNLN, but some of our overseas TBs dropped in. Sorry there weren't any visas for them though. Our thanks again to TEAM LANDCRUISER.

The sundews around this place just have to be see to be believed. Amazing Tread lightly is the key. Follow the trail.
No TB movement or visas today. Only used my Visa at the shop. – a big TFTC and clear skies from TeamAstro. [^]
We seem to be step behind the TB's, all the Kings Park caches say they have TB's but there have been none so far. We left one of our own this time. TFTH.
Hi,sorry we are late in logging in btw travel and PC. Picked up TB Virginia. Here on Holiday from Cape Town now in Sydney. In Kruger park keyring. TFTC , Bushpigs

Found the cache totally exposed on a wet and windy Vietnam Veteran's Remembrance Day (our Memorial is only a few hundred metres from GZ).
I thought the cache had been muggled because there were no TBs in the cache, but it seems I mixed up this cache with Kings Park Travel Bug Hotel, which I didn't even look for when I was only about 150 metres away when I went looking for Kings Cache.
I've re-hidden the cache with a bit more leaf litter.

We were disappointed the cache didn't have any TB's. Never mind we got a smiley. Thanx for the hunt TNLN.
I convinced the boss that we needed a walk in the early evening while visting from Adelaide for business. An 8 km round trip walk from the motel was well worth it as it was a fantastic walk and we were met with some wonderful views.The police had a nearby area cordoned off and we were shadowed by the police helicopter as we disappeared into the bush to retrieve the cache. Not a great idea to dig things up in the bush with the police nearby looking for bodies, but the boss said that he would do the talking!! We were also filmed by channel 7 news!. TFTC
Nice walk in the sun...

A nice spot. Enjoyed our search for this one with a bunch of cachers-in-training (CIT) aged 3 to 6 who loved the "treasure hunt". Took various loot for each CIT. Left an equal quantity of bits and pieces plus "Orange Bug" TB.
Thanks for the fun.

I just love this park...even in the rain! took looney toons watch and left a pin and a genuine Wisconsin Cheesehead. TFTC
Found it in the midle of the night with a firend, thoght it would be a good rush. Gerate night! thanks for the cach.
At the DNA tower I decided to log this cache as well, as the last one for today.
But it was quiet a long way.
Found it easily. Took out a dinosaur.
Like at the last cache, i couldn't leave something, I was out of trading stuff.

Found after a PT session on the other side of Kings Park, we were over near DNA Tower so a nice jog down the fairway, duck into the bush and I found it without too many issues! Didn't see any TB Passports though, was hoping for one for a TB I had picked up to travel the world. No matter. TNLNSL! Day 45 DONE! 1 more day
Thought we would do this the hard way and go bush. not a parking space in sight on mothers day so had to park a long way off thank goodness GPS knew where we were other wise we could still be out there. left a travel bug
Another great location in Kings Park. Enjoying our caching in this area today.

What a great cache, took "seven" kids for a bush walk and they thought it was "great" finding such a treasure chest. Had nothing on us to leave but took the Sharpe the Dragon bug and the Easterly Travel bug... two weeks of school holidays, so have plenty of time to take these to a new cache.
Easter Sunday and weather has cleared.

Since i didnt have to start work until mid day, this was a good chance to get out and see a bit of perth on foot. after a short stroll from the hotel the cache was quickly located
Nice easy find or though I got thoroughly soaked with the day's heaviest rain on the way back to the park.
No swaps. TFTH.

Great cache thanks, enjoyed my walk.

Called by this evening and picked up PUMBAA Travel Bug. Australia Postage is still in the cache despite dispatches to the contrary. The cache does however need a new pen or pencil and bag for the log book.

Found it very easily, with final path in being fairly well trodden. Couldn't find any visas. Logged in to the new log book. Recovered well with leaf litter and a couple of small branches. Thought the Visa centre would bge a good place to drop geocoin Australia Postage, and picked up Little Hopper Geocoin.
As I forgot this morning, I dropped by this afternoon with a new log book. Left the old one in the cache but TLC if you want it posted back just let me know. Happy to do so.
Called by first thing this morning on a trackables raid and to beat Nobbyz to "Prospect Mountain (CO)" Green Jeep Travel Bug . Found the cache partially uncovered, which is disappointing given the amount of material available to completely hide it!
Whilst here I also picked up Doh!(Hommer) and The Wrench and dropped off Little Hopper Geocoin. Both Bushies Spark and Duckbill Travel Bugs have been taken from the cache.

Found after a lovely lunch at Zamia Cafe. The kids enjoyed playing at the "Dinosaur" Park. Another relative simply find - which is away best when with geokids. Thank you.
A great spot, was well hidden. Our first of three finds in the area this afternoon. Took Green Kiko TB. In: Packet of crayons Out: PMH Bear. Thanks for the hunt Team Landcruiser!

Had a free afternoon so decided to have a walk in the park. Nice sunny day and heaps of birds about.
Good cache TNLN.
The Log Book needs replacing though as it is very full.
Walked on to do Kings Cache GC5F5A as it was on my route.
All in all a very pleasant afternoon.

Nice walk past the necking couples. Introduced some newbies to geocaching - they have the Kissables TB and will log it as soon as they have created an account.
Found on a day hike around the Park. Dropped off "Plug Bug" TB and moved on Geocoin.
Log Book is very full, used back cover for log. NTNL T4TC

Visited looking for a passport, but alas - there are none left. A beautiful day, with many people in the park area.
Haven't seen this area of the park for years, the nearby facilities look great, worth a future family picnic/BBQ I reckon. TFTH

2nd cache of a few tonight with friend Hedgie. Amazed at just hom much light the moon was providing in betweens rain shower. Grabbed TB and coin. TFTC.
Found with rallywrxwagon on his visit to the West. Dropped in at 11.00pm disturbing someone "parking" near where we parked the car.
Called by this morning on a Travel Bug Raid. Picked up Leapin' Lizard to help it on its adventures and dropped off Connecticut Geocoin and Tak The Champion Kick Boxer to get a Travel Bug Travel Visa. Alas there was only one Visa left so Connecticut Geocoin has got it. I am sure Tak would like a Visa also if TLC can see there way clear to drop some more in. The cache is in good condition.
[Made us running around the trees a little bit.] Which burnt stump? [But we made it to our fifth Australian cache. Yeah! Then we went to hug the dinosaur.]
Passed through for a quick drop off today. Left Leapin Lizard TB to continue his travels around oz. He couldn't collect a visa though as there are none left. TNLNSL TFTH
Found it, we removed a Florida geocoin, FL6B1D 435. We put in a Magalosauras. This is the first coin we have found, pretty cool!!!
Our first time to Kings Park and impressed. Dropped off Florida Geocoin, and took Half a Gig TB. Thanks TEAM LANDCRUISER.
Yes found it with 'The Maid' and offspring at 1500 after a good meal at Zamia's. Another great day. Wanted to drop off TB 'Half a Gig' 523518 and hope someone takes that dodgy memory - like ours! out of this country. Thanks

Took a path from the play area which took us North of the cache. Walked back though the bush and found we had missed a path that gets you quite close. Easy to find from there. It didn't look like the Cache was within the fenced of regeneration area.
My son left a toy garbage bin?! and took a small toy car. LS.

We must have dropped by shortly after arlorggen. Urch1949 grabbed the last TB for me to place in an appropriate spot to move closer to the desired destination. Really lovely spot & well worth a visit with kids. We were a little concerned about charging through a revegetation area - make sure you start out on the fire trail to the right of the playground etc. TFTC.
Rated: for Overall Experience
What a great playground and picnic area - marvellous for kids of all ages! Found cache with some difficulty - attempted it via wrong direction at first - access it and then keep to the right of the fenced revegetation area.

Visited to get some passports.After taking what I needed there are only 3 passports left.Also took one of the TBs already in the cache.
Last cache of our trip to Oz before heading home to the UK. Nice quiet location too. We couldn't help the TBs so left them for someone who could, and took a couple of passports for the TBs we have at home (there are lots left). Left signature keyring. Thanks for the cache and the exercise!

8:20pm. Not sure if I came in the right way in the dark but the bush bash would indicate a higher terrain difficulty. Anyway it was very easy to find. TNLN. Thanks.
Dropped Lisa the Lizard off for a passport. Her paperwork went through, lightning fast, and she now has a nice shiny new passport to travel with!
Hopefully from here, someone heading out Uluru way will be able to grab her.
