Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Made the challenging drive upto this one on the way back from Ellenbrook
last week...

Taking into account all the recent DNF's I didn't hold out much hope
And was proved to be correct.

Tried to email owner to see if they could confirm it's whereabouts, but their
Email account is also disabled.

I was in the area today & went for a drive out to GZ.....
There has been lots of clearing (logging) of pine plantations and
general clearing. As well as the bike & buggy muggles.
Had a very good search around GZ...
I have posed a photo of the GZ area.
I dont think the cache is inplace any more

After a 16 klm trip via Warbrook Road to access this cache we were disappointed to not collect a smiley. Checked within a 17 mt radius and pretty sure it is gone.

Easy find after a bouncy drive in. Cache container is needing some attention before we get too much rain.

We came cross country from another cache. Glad we had a 4WD. The main limestone track in is very bumpy. Took out broken old golfer and put in necklace. Would recommend this as a site for "Clean up Australia Day"

Thanks for the cache, we have been living in the area for almost two years and have being meaning to find this for some time, finally got the time to get the fourby off the tar and stretching her legs. Took the TB and replaced it with another.
 
05-Jun-09
An unusual location - we saw some sand buggies enjoying the area - but were able to keep going away from the crowd to gz. Left gc. thanks rahar
 
22-Mar-09
Easy find. Many fast muggles around. TFTCSL.
 
11-Mar-09
Had fun getting there, easy find, Shake and mve TB is not there.
 
20-Feb-09
Continuing my caching loop in these northern parts, I approached this one from the north, on the limestone tracks in my 2WD and was able to get reasonably close to GZ, then legged it through the sand. No muggles in sight at any time while driving through these pine plantations, so that was a relief. Found cache easily after the long drive.
TN Left Diabetes TB. Thanks for the hunt, rahar.

[Go straight and if something gets in your way - TURN.]

If you value your vehicle enter via the back route as the hardened main tracks are smoother.

[Picked up the Christmas trackable, will give her a good christmas before dropping in another cache, somewhere, somehow, somewhen]

[Australian Branch] Well, Gran Calebrecker stepped up to the 4WDing to get us to this cache all in one piece! TNLN.
 
21-Sep-08
We had to be quick with this 1! Muggles were everywhere! Drove right up to the cache. Easy find. Took nothing, left Christmas TB. T4TH
 
17-Aug-08
Had to be quick with this one as it was attempted on a weekend, managed to find out how capable the new Pajero is in the soft sand aswell. Cache was a bit exposed but we tucked it away nice and safe. TNLN SL T4TH
 
17-Jul-08
We decided to go out despite the rain but did not wish to venture too far from the vehicle. We found the cache still in good order.Took the Ninja travel bug to move on and left one plus a pencil stub as the pen had dried up.TFTC.
Baudot.
 
13-Jul-08
Came here from 'Pricklybark' - road not too bad. (It's actually worse closer to Gnangara Road, more traffic we suppose.) We certainly encountered the (very) high speed muggles on the way through. Interesting trip. Took Cards, Left pouch. TFTCSL
 
13-Jul-08
Forgot to mention - the pen is dry and we didn't have a spare to leave.
 
28-Apr-08
A nice quiet ride thru the pines on the geobike ( nobody around on a cool autumn morning)

Took goalkeeper tb (no sign of 'Shake it N Move it' TB)
Left Ninja Mushi#3 tb

This is our first find. Careful about the comments about muggles on motorbikes. I was once one of them, now I'm a 4*4 geocacher. Its a lot harder to fall off the 4*4, Lyndy lou and Big kev - Thanks rahar.
 
10-Jan-08
Just dropped in, seeing I was in the area, to drop off a GC.
 
10-Jan-08
We were able to get this one thanks to our geocaching friends The Hallows who like to go 4 wheel driving. (My Falcon would not have tolerated this track). Many zooming muggles around but found the cache without any difficulty. Retrieved the Micro GC and dropped Goalkeeper TB. TFTC rahar.
 
06-Jan-08
Nice hot and dusty day. Plenty of muggles (idiots) around. Eventually found the cache. TNLN.
T4TH Mark.
 
22-Dec-07
Took a nice drive in to get this one - but I'm not sure I'd be bringing the family wagon here - the track is as rough as guts! Actually found it smoother in 4WD in the soft sand!! There looks like a new fire break has been cut and it passes within less than a metre of the GZ (unless that's where it's always been!)The cache was well hidden tho so no problems there.
DEPARTED : Syd TB (back in our care again) and Old Man Winter GC and Groomers Clippers
ARRIVED : Pack of playing cards
Thanks for the chance to get the 4WD dirty rahar Wink
PS No sign of Shake it n Move It TB

Xmas trees out and about. Great spot, have driven past here many times. No swaps, left Syd TB behind. TFTH
 
10-Oct-07
Slow bumpy drive getting to GZ. Nice and quiet down the back of "The Pines" but a few motorbikes were zooming around back by the bitumen. Found the cache easily at 6:15pm. It was a little exposed but I covered it better when I left. I had a good look for SOBFU's "Shake it 'n' Move it" TB, but it is definitely not in the cache. Took nothing. Left TBG's "Old Man Winter" Geocoin here to continue on its way to Tasmania. Good luck. Thanks for the cache rahar.

First attempt, easy find once I figured out what my GPS was trying to tell me and searched the right area. Wink Thanks for the hunt, now to try some more.
 
15-Apr-07
Didn't Swap anything. had a good time.

An easy find for me, but the track in is quite rough for conventional vehicles. The cache is very well hidden, though easy to find, with very good co-ordinates. TN-LN-SL. Thanks to rahar for the cache.

Nice and easy for #150. Central Road gate is open !! There are some more caches N. of here so let's see how far we can get Smile TNLN

Nice easy find, not too many people around today as it's a bit hot. TNLN, T4TH.
 
30-Dec-06
First attempt at night-caching and had some good fun and a few laughs after being surprised by a few night time 4 wheel drivers. Surprised

Took Donkey Kong, Left dog clippers, signed log.

Thanks for the hunt!
 
15-Oct-06
Enjoyed going through some of the trails in the new 4x4 whilst heading to the cache.

Once there, we parked a bit away from it, so we didn't draw any attention from the 'high-speed' muggles. Walked in and logged our visit. Whilst we were there, we were quiet enough and lucky enough to see some quails running about - quite interesting to see these little guys at work.
 
03-Sep-06
I have been meaning to do this one for ages as it close to home. Chose this morning as I knew it would be quiet on a damp Monday morning.

Cache is in good condition.

The area looks like something from an early Max Max movie as far as derelict wrecks and churned up roads go. Only after I found the cache did I notice the ‘Prohibited Area’ signs. Whoops. TNLN. Cheers

3.15pm found no worries.

For some reason it took me a little while to find this one even though in hind sight it wasn't that hard. TFTH
Got out onto Gnangara Rd and went to look at the GPS to see where the next one was and couldn't find it in the car, I had to return to the cache site and pick it up from where it fell off the roof when I turned around. Red Face
 
28-Jan-06
First find using my brand new Geko 201. GZ was about 5m from cache. TNLNSL. Cheers.

Lucky we hadn't washed the car. This one is so close to our home. Found with 3 kids. Took bottle opener, football trophy and car. Left a few bits and pieces, I can't recall.
Thanks for the cache.

Quick drive up the track to log this one. There were a couple of muggles around but nothing to worry about. Good easy find, thanks for the hunt.
