Hi All,

I visited the cache last weekend to check out the location and it seems to be cleared out a lot more than what it was when the cache was there. I am going to try and find a spot to hide it but just to let you know I am still going to try and reactivate this cache.

Thanks for your patience!

It was still in my GPS, so we searched for it and found it's logbook on GZ. In plastic but completely wet, signed it. Wanted to write the CO, but as i see now, he already knows. Smile

Hi all,

Seems Barker's Eggs has been partially muggled.
I have disabled the cache and taken the container away and will be scouting out a new cache location.

Thanks everyone for hunting this cache over the years and I hope to have it back in action soon.

Thank you to Justintime13, MNS13 and Krama4all for cleaning up the area and the cache as well as notifying me of the issue.

Cache well and truly missing however found the log book in bushes absolutely soaking but still legible.
Took Nannas globetrotter for safekeeping.
Replaced log book in sealed bag but still very wet.
returned it to the original cache GPS settings.

I didnt realise at the time, (that it was a trackable) but Nanas globetrotter is still in the cache.
 
30-Aug-13
Im afraid to tell you that this cache has been muggled!
We spotted the contents (what was left of them) before the container.
There was a few bits of paper and cards that i took with me, (to bin, as they were well and truly water damaged.)
Apart from a pencil, an ink pad and a few shells there was nothing else left. I put a new notepad in a ziplock bag, and all the small swaps i had on me, and covered it up well, So it is available for the next finder. You will probably need to mark all the trackables as missing, i had a good look around for them, but couldn't locate any. Such a shame.
Thanks for placing this cache, under better circumstances im sure it would have been great!
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

I got to have the day off school today, to go to a dr app, after mum took us caching. When we found is, it was all over the place, i thought it was just rubbish. Mum cleaned it all up for you, but there are no trackables in it.
Thanks for the cache.

Easy find found it in no time! Great scenery!
 
Found it with the assistance of our very own geo-barker! Wow fantastic to see a lovely large cache too, unfortunately it was a little wet inside so we took everything out and drained it as best we could and then wrapped everything into the plastic bags inside.

Thanks for sharing this spot with us.
 
17-Jul-13

This has to be the biggest cache I've ever found. Lovely spot. TFTH

After belng cooped up in the house for most of the last week, decided to take the opportunity on cache around Fremantle today. Lots of fun revisiting some of these spots again.


It took a little while to find, amazing for a large cache, and it was very exposed as well. Only one trackable remains in the cache.


Cool [:o)]

YAY! At last we found it. I knew it had been moved and thought I had the new coords, but apparently not. We found it by sheer determination. We wanted to tick this one off. Unfortunately our pooch is too old to come with us on these outings, but she wishes she could have signed. TFTC

15-Oct-12
Had a couple of hours to kill as my plane was delayed so decided to grab some nearby caches after a quick take away from a nearby chain.
Was a very pleasant late afternoon stroll with a number of people playing in the nearby sports area and walking their dogs.

GZ was easily located and cache was found dry and secure, though a little exposed. Signed the log and placed a little more cover over the container, but still visible if you know what you are looking for Wink.
Thanks for the cache S2333 [^], nice to find a "large" cache, especially in an urban area.
 
09-Oct-12
A large cache indeed! A nice find, unfortunately the dog had to stay home Sad

Thanks for the cache. This was our first ever find. I think we are really going to enjoy this!! We had geodog with us and she thanks you for the dog treat we found. We incorporated this find with our usual dog walk and geodog is forever grateful. Easy find for geokids. We left a turtle for next geokids to find.

What a refreshing change to find a lovely big box and a different theme. Sorry no doggy but we used the ink pad and have the blue thumb to prove it. A favourite point from us.

Back today with better coords and a quick find. An exciting cache with all the doggie goodies, sadly my Geodog was at home today. TNLN SL. Thanks S2333
 
24-May-12
[:(!] Stupid me....searched a 20meter radius of the old coords and of course found nothing. Will have a go at the new ones another time. Geodog loved the adventure anyway, she consoled me with a lick, meaning better luck next time.

We don't see many large caches so wanted to do this one and as we have a soft spot for dogs. As we where about to uncover GZ a muggles dog came to investigate and started barking at us so we had to move on. Once they also moved on we made the find of a well stocked cache. Signed the log and replaced. TFTC.

Nice and easy find.
What a giant cache!

Took rope toy, left tennis-ball-covered bone thingo.
Also left some poop bags behind.

Guybrush really enjoyed it, and he used the water bowl for a refreshing drink.


Didn't see any trackables inside.

Went for a swim down the road at the dog beach.

Highly recommended!

Quick find of the well hidden cache. Was not sure of the log arrangements as I was on my own.Big Grin
Thanks for bringing me here again...my young brother and I used to play in this Attadale/Burke Drive area in the early 1950's when the whole area was a swamp!! Yes I am still young enough to enjoy geocaching...
Thanks S2333

A very hot Australia day, nice to see a larger container.

Thanks S2333.
 
18-Jan-12
[:(!] Went for an afternoon of caching with Mrs Grumpy Bump, arrived at GZ and had to return to the car for some aeroguard because of the high density of mosquites in the area, after returning, the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes, I could have left the kitchen sink in the container if I had one LNTTBSL TFTC
 
10-Jan-12
Nice to see such a large container in a fairly busy spot! TNLN TFTC!

Took longer for me than a 1 star difficulty usually does, but I suspect tree cover and lack of patience waiting for my GPS to settle were to blame. My old pooch is 14 and a half and barely hanging in there. He would absolutely love this area so close to the river. I took a toy for him which he's been squeaking like a puppy! You made an old boy very happy and in turn made me happy, so I thank you for the time and expense you outlayed in creating and replacing this cache. I ride round the river many times each week so will be sure to return with a suitable replacement toy for another visitor. Thanks for the cache. He's not very compliant with photos (or much anymore!) but I've included a few photos of Jed as best as he'd allow.
