Geocache Description:


Due to the temporary nature of pens and pencils in my geocaches
BRING YOUR OWN WRITING IMPLEMENT!!!

This cache is located in Careniup/Balcatta Reserve, which just means it's at the intersection of Careniup Avenue and Balcatta Road. The Reserve also contains the Careniup Wetlands, and these are home to a host of waterbirds. There is a playground and barbecue in the reserve, and a bus stop just metres from the playground.

The cache is not at the above coordinates, but they will get you reasonably close. To find the cache you will need to visit those coordinates and find a 10 digit phone number, ABCDEFGHIJ.

The cache will be found at S31°51.(J-A)(C+D)(H+J)' E115°47.(B+I)(F+G)(A+E)'

The cache is now a drab camo'd 400 ml plastic screw top container, with log book, finders cards, pen, two pencils, pencil sharpener, and a selection of swaps.

Please be sure to replace the cache as found with it's protective covering.

This cache is part of a series leading towards my GC1RN04 WanAus 103 - Bonus Box cache. There is a BB number in the back of the log book. You will need to record this number in the format 101? (from WanAus 101 and ? for the BB number) for future reference.

This is just a suggestion, but it may help you to keep track of the BB numbers.
Every cache page has "*Personal Cache Note" *Click to enter a note, just above Geocache Description:
You could either add the code to each individual cache,
or add all numbers to GC1RN04 WanAus 103 - Bonus Box.

When trading items please consider trading up or trading even and leaving items that you would want to find, and please don't take the pen, pencils or sharpener. If you can't trade up or trade even I don't mind seeing TNLNSL in the log. Also please don't put the pen or pencils in the log book bag, it tends to destroy the watertight integrity.

Trackables (geocoins and travel bugs) are not tradeable items. Please feel free to take them without making a trade, but please leave a note in the logbook and your online log, and do log them online.

If you are wondering about the name, I was looking for a cache to place Meet and Greet Ranger 216 Holiday Geocoin, which wants to be placed in caches with "Meet" in the name. The only one in Western Australia is Bear_Left's Meet you halfway, and I don't look like getting a chance to hunt that one before I head North for warmer climes at the end of May, so "I made one myself".
