No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.
Sadly, it seems as though aussie-O's are no longer caching. This is such a pretty location, but unless aussie-O's are prepared to replace the cache or confirm its location can it please be archived?
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require.
I think it has gone. Wouldn't have bothered going to look for it if I had read the recent logs first.
We missed this one too, so perhaps confirming others' suspicions that it is no longer there . Just for the record, Bunya's FSM Geocoin visited with us.
Checked in on this cache as I was close by to see if had been replaced... Nothing evident.
Great spot though.

Whilst out today we were hunting for frogs for the moveable cache race on geocaching.com.au and also capturing and deploying munzees (munzee.com) such a busy day considering poor Mr Felix was suffering with man flu!
Alas a 2nd DNF for us here. They are doing considerable rehabilitation work here and I fear it has been cleaned up!

Looked, and looked, and looked. Still couldn't find, GPS may have been slightly off. Will be back...
We searched for a while, eventually consulted the clue, but no cache did we find.
how can we miss something that large?
Thanks, Robmc.

found the camp found the tree but no cache just the remminents of someone playing hookey
Found it pretty easily after a five minute hunt. We found what looked like two homeless campsites right near the cache (pretty well set up with lounge cushions, lanterns and stove) so be a bit careful when hunting. TFTC!
Lots of clearing and new trees planted in GZ but we searched a bit till it rained. No luck!!
Found by Connie's brother after a thorough search.
Took Appalachian Train Geocoin which we'll take back to the UK with us.

We thought we were clever and guessed there was another set of wooden stairs further along. There wasn't. So we bush bashed straight down the hill through a swarm of mozzies. There were mozzies everywhere.

Took a little bit of looking but managed to find it just a little off on the coords but it was a good hunt TFTC
A bit of a struggle getting the bikes down here - then a bit of a struggle to get them up again! Should have checked the map - the path begins just a wee bit further on
Found coords to be a little off, but still found it easily.

Another lovely place to visit. The cache was not where my GPSr was pointing, but by circling outwards I soon came across it. Looks like I was the second person to visit it today and I am wondering if I walked past the other cacher nearby.
TFTC and bringing me here aussie-O's

Out with Gum nuts but it was Stringerscraven snr who fought through the bush to retrieve the cache. A nice sized container. Took TB to move on soon.
Found with stringers craven who we sent in ahead as snake bait! In fact they recovered the cache and we claimed some of the glory. TFTC, SL

Very nice spot. GPS was a little bit innacurate, but found it without too much trouble. Picked up Koala TB, dropped off Dragonfly TB.
What a nice walk to the cache!
GPS was pointing me towards the wrong bush, so once I widened my search area, it was pretty easy to find.
Left the Koala TB.
TFTH!

Running out of daylight, found this cache after a short search. The clue is misleading! Great old school cache, but heaps of mosquitos in this spot! TNLN. Thanks.
Found on today's caching trip to Perth, Had a lovely time finding your cache. TNLN SL TFTH
Darn it. The gps ground zero was right on the track but no cache to be found. Some of the area has been cleared by hand it seems & there have been alot of seedlings planted & so it may have been muggled & taken away. Might want to be checked out.
Bonjour from French Canadians,
Great sunny day for a walk close to the river.
I loved to have caches to discover at the same time I please my SpeudoGeoWwife with a walk.

Great spot that I have often driven by but never visited. There is a lot of rehabilitation plantings around the cache now so take care.
Second go at finding this one - was in the right area just wrong tree. Hints helped second time round. TFTH TNLN

Took a while but got there with the hints. Lots of rehab happening please take care no need to go near new plantings. Took coin - heading west. Cheers from camo02
Wow, so Dalkieth does have nice spots... For me, this was one of those caches you sometimes just walk straight up to and grab within a minute without reading the hint. Found with Mrs stevekellyxley and although TNLN, had a good time playing with the magnets. TFTC!!
Nice spot, thanks for bringing us here. Left Atari game cartridge and Golden Horns geocoin, took magnets - very cool

Had quite a bit of a look around, wasn't sure if my iPhone GPS was being accurate because of the trees, cliff etc. Eventually had a look at the most recent logs and the hint, a combination of those helped us look at bit harder and eventually got it.
Thanks to the most recent finders who provided the updated hint.
Took nothing, wish we had brought some swaps. Logbook made a good read though. Thanks for the cache!

Oooh I was ready to quit ..... I really was.... but the others wouldn't leave!! (I hadn't searched properly, though ...... and then went back to read the intro and hint .... just to make sure that it really was gz for the gps was not very reliable with all the trees around leading it astray.) Sigh! I must say that there is nothing quite like the satisfaction of finding a cache ..... after a really long and thorough search .... and if you look carefully, the signs will be there!! This is a gorgeous spot. We came down the longer way which was good for it was a nice little stroll to the cache. We had parked quite close to the cache without realising it for there was also another way to the same path, closer to the car but we started walking from the "path" sign near the walkway, instead. Thanks heaps for bringing us here. It was a beautiful day for scavenging around and it was a most enjoyable hunt! TFTH!!
After a long search, Xinders spotted the container and we were all very happy that the cache had finally been found. Spotted what looked like an egg under some twigs (have taken a photo!). Loved the view. TFTC. Will come back and explore the area a bit more!
This one was very tricky to find. It is NOT under a eucalyptus tree............ TFTC though.
It's under a PINE tree not a eucalyptus tree (the bow they mentioned with the eucalyptus is DEAD and about a metre way)
so yeah pine not eucalyptus

We found it after a good search..... for the gps led us astray. Xinders was ready to quit ...... but had to keep searching for none of us were willing to leave. This is a great spot with so many interesting things to look at. Xinders actually found the cache ................ while we were all in the middle of searching under every possible spot. It is in excellent condition. I took the yo-yo and left the buzzing magnets. TFTH! Very nice!!
Found this one today with Caddy07 and Melbermans, while trying to finally clear up all our finds in this area. Not much trouble finding it and making a few changes.

Found with Daunts and Melbermans. Pirate coin out, nail clippers in. Tucked it back away again. That's the last of the locals done (not counting the disabled ones).

A great park with awesome views. I have not been here before. The short walk to the final was easy and I found the "litlle" container after a bit of looking around.

Lucky was with AKM who found it. Was a bit tricky! Lovely area for picnic and the view was fantastic!
Found it just off the track a little. Enjoyed the walk, thank you for leading us there.
2nd visit to this cache. Had to use the spoiler photos because last time we were way off with the tree cover throwing off the GPS.
TNLN. Thanks

This one took a lot longer than it should have... I searched and searched and searched, after almost giving up I finally found the photos for the cache page and the spoiler shot on my iPhone and found it straight away! TFTC

This was a stocked cache. We grabbed the seven (7) TB's! We will move them along. We used the hint to find the cache in pretty quick time. We signed the log and left a balloon, a coin and our calling card and a medal. We also dropped off our last TB which was the Love GeoCoin. TFTH & TFTC
Took a bit of looking, but got there eventually! Nice hide for such a large container.
Dropped off Cheeky Dragon and Combat Wombat TBs so they can continue their adventures...

Headed for this largish cache as we had several TBs we had been holding onto for much too long. Had to search awhile - the clue is right but that still leaves a lot of options. Thanks for an interesting cache on a beautiful day. Left five TBs:- Bear Defense; Chip; Jingle Bell (very appropriate); Jumper Jack; Space Traveller.
Thanks aussie-O's for a great cache in nice spot. Had a few problems hunting it down but eventually got a bit off from the spot. No trackables here......? but we enjoyed the visit.
Had much trouble in finding this cache. From Time Out in Nedlands, we ended walking along the shore of the Swan, up a rickety wooden staircase and into a private owned property! Regardless, we are happy to have triumphantly discovered the cache. TFTC, aussie-O’s.
We can still see the rehabilitation work that is going on here with striving seedlings in their guard bags. Beautiful scenery too. TFTH, aussie-O’s.
I agree with Celastra – green grass, azure waters of the Swan, and blue sky with fluffy white clouds. Lovely, lovely. Thank for bringing us here, aussie-O’s.
It’s a Resolution of a noble act – to revegetate the slopes and this part of Swan River bank. Thank you for bringing us here, aussie-O’s, to witness this rehabilitation work. Greeting from Geocaching Malaysia in Facebook.
Getting tired as the day goes on. Made it ot the bottom and then a quick search and cache was in hand.

1607 - Work trip in WA with time to cache....
This was second time around on this one for me. Couldn't find it last year and the mossies eventually chased me away. Today karma was at hand with a quick (headslapping) find - nice to finally get this one.
TNLN - TFTC !!
Cheers....

Did not find this one today. I wish I had a look at the gallery prior to hunting. looks like I was not quite in the right spot. will try again.
This was a cool cache in a fantastic spot. Took a bit of hunting, but very worthwhile.
Left a 20 kroner coin and a pen.
Took a blue spinning top and a clip bear.
Had a nice walk along the riverbank at sunset after a great afternoon caching.

Great little spot, but my search was in vein. I thoght I gave it a good shake but just couldn't find it.
Very scenic location and we enjoyed the views over the water. TNLN. Thanks aussie-O's
Continuing bike ride around north of river.
Took skaters.
Left geocoins and fruit knife.

Hmm, not sure I came the right way down to this one but I did find the right way up. A nice little cache on a great path. Coords were out for me as well and is that really a Eucalyptus tree? Aren't they all?
I didn't realize there were coins in the cache or I would've nabbed them. Darn! I gotta learn to read the cache page first...

Wonderful location for a picnic, little tricky to find, but found it in the end...Tfth. took the travel bug, left a babushka doll and a screwdriver.
Took me a while to find this one on my way from Claremont TrainStation to the CBD, but with a trained geocaching-eye, there's no problem to find it, even if the coordinates are a bit of. TFTC, dropped GC "Swiss TB-Trophy" for further travelling. Thank you for showing this lovely quiet place!
Found it and placed in a set of black and silver sunglasses that I found near cache great spot.

Found at 2nd attempt. Coordinates are a little out.

Thanks for the cache aussie-O's
It was a tough one to find but certainly one of the most well stocked cache containers I have ever seen.

I was a bit worried about finding this cache after the previous 2 DNF's recorded fo this cache. Cache is definmately still there and in good condition. A nice secluded little spot. TNLN. TFTH.
Got good position from gps but nothing found. Area has recently pbeen re-planted, although not immediately adjacent to cache position.

Cache must have been rehidden very well as we could not find it. Spent quite a while searching in ever increasing circles but no luck. Thx for the tour anyways
what a great spot, thanks for bringing me here. The cache was a little exposed so an easy find but I rehid it well. Cheers.
When approaching GZ, I noticed someone looking suspicious in the bushes... it must be another Geocacher! And it was! Arlorggen!
I am almost CERTAIN I heard a little snicker from him as he sat perched in a tree while I hunted unsucessfully
Eventually arlorggen got down from the tree to help me and then let me be with the goods. Thanks arloggen! Nice to meet you too.
