I picked up an eye infection last weekend in Perth and the doctor gave me 2 days off work. As I wasn’t really sick (off work to prevent contamination), I decided to go geocaching to clear out a nearby area.
I headed up to the Park Orchards area where I knew I’d have to do quite a bit of hiking. My first stop was 100 Acre Bush Reserve where I found 2 caches (Double Century and Mercator Madness)and hid one new one. It was a really nice walk (about 2.5km in total) but it was quite hot and I worked up quite a sweat.
I then drove a short distance and quickly had BullsEye in hand.
Another short drive and a 600m hike through dense bush (I missed the path and headed up the wrong side of the creek) to find Hidden Valley. I took a TB and a geocoin from this cache that had both been here for more than 6 months.
My last stop was in Ringwood to visit Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard, an easy find in a small reserve hidden behind some houses.
The hide is not yet active as it has been hidden to celebrate 10 years of geocaching in Australia and will only be published on 18 May 2010. See here for more details.

Feb was a busy month for me as caching goes. I managed 25 geocaches in the month – my busiest ever (not that I’m a numbers man!)
I was also lucky enough to do some travel caches – in Perth and Fremantle, Western Australia. I managed to grab 5 caches in the 4 days that we were in town. One whole day was lost to a wedding and another to travel and the heat (42°C!)
In the early part of the month I also took a bike ride from Croydon to Blackburn north and grabbed a few caches along the Mullum Mullum Creek and the Koonung Creek cycle trails.
I attended a lunch event and made some new friends too at the “Another Bung Lunch” event.
My favourite find of the month was “Wetlands Walk” which I did with my 3½ year old son. My favourite hide was “Mont Court Reserve“, a very stealthy hide in a kids’ playground.

On Tuesday (16th Feb) I attended the Geebung Lunch event (Another Bung Lunch – the Long Return – GC234F0) where I got to meet some new cachers.
The event was fun, lots of stories (as you would expect), a lucky dip FTF and a beautiful geocoin was won.
The only disappointment of the day was the food actually – we couldn’t get the bar menu and had to eat off the expensive restaurant menu!
