Great to be back out in Kowen Forest, its been well over a year since we were out here last. The goal today was the roo’s tail and back leg, and a couple of the waterside caches. I wasn’t always sure we would get through them all but despite the dense blackberries and landfall in some parts we did it! Most caches were in good condition but we provided a little maintenance when needed to say thanks for the cool geoart. All in all a great day of adventuring with isopeda and GLISS!
Teamed up with GLISS! and Nibblericecake to get some of the Roo and whatever crosses our path.
Sorry about the generic logs. Have added little things here and there.

A day out in Kowen Forest with Nibletricecakes and Isopeda chiping away at The Roo. Today it was the tail and back leg. Caches were found in a mix of conditions and maintenance was done where needed. TFTC.
Day 3 already. Up early after another wet night. Temperatures have dropped and we are far away from summer, but nevertheless ready for caching. A few caches around Belconnen and then a park run. After the Parkrun back to doing adventure labs and weather suitable caches around Canberra. Kowen forest is diffetent navigating when it's wet!

Where it said it would be!, Time to move on the mosquitoes are starting to munch!
Little bit of wandering around before making the find. Lots of places for a cache to be with a gps on the Fritz. Tftc
A cool autumn weekday morning was the perfect chance to start my assault on the roo. I parked at the main carpark off Sutton Rd, waited for a logging truck to go through the gate then completed a 17km round trip in a roughly clockwise direction targeting the tail section.
A fantastic walk through the forest; most caches were found in surprisingly good condition. I'll be back for the next bunch of caches soon!
This cache was a straightforward find at GZ.
Thanks, sacada!

Today’s the day for my first attempt at the roo series, out on the MTB, partly walk partly ride. And oh these hills, short and sharp again and again
Grateful thanks to sacada for placing and maintaining the caches to entertain me on my journey.

Wow, what a day! I set out to see how much of the roo that I could find in a day. It was interesting to visit areas in different phases of growth. The head was a hilly challenge. Based upon previous logs, I decided to do the head first so that I would be fresh and I am really glad that I did. The clearcut areas were frustrating because everything looked like a hiding spot. Lots of rocks and lots of stumps. Unfortunately, I was unable to get the legs done. I shall return.
Thanks to sacada for the geoart and thanks to Joolay for setting up access to the forest.

Down from the path again. Saw two yellow tail black cockatoos at this cache. I love thier call!
A FAVpoint for the nice nature outing today, this was towards the end of the hard slog down and up the valleys around the tail end. Was looking forward to get back to the car at this stage.
Another organized approach on the Roo in Kowen forest (thanks Joolay!) I started at sunrise to have a few hour before the event in the late morning. I roomed around for about 4 hours and manged to complete most of the trail which felt like a nice achievement. A few more TE caches in the mix made for a great morning. Came a bit late to the event (plus left soon after for some FTFs
but still made it. Big caching day for me.
Thank you sacada for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

Hiking with the sibling... Tftc found this in my drafts... Reckon I was too out of breath to log it hahaha
After not doing much caching lately, plans were made with FFLL to seek a permit into the Kowen Forest for the October long weekend. We were granted day access for the Saturday and Sunday, but due to another group seeking exclusive use, camping was not permitted. Thats all good, we were not intending on camping anyways 
Today I came out solo with the intentions of scoping out the roads situation and grabbing as many caches that FFLL has already found on her previous trip out here quite sometime ago. I was very happy to have found all of them by the end of the day. I contacted the CO prior to coming out and brought along some spare caches to see if the regrowth was underway at the logged sites. And yes, there is new trees growing in all the logged sites that I visited. So I placed new caches at 84,85&86 (all located within stumps at the GZ coordinates based on a Garmin GPSr), the CO has since enabled these caches. Number 80 was also replaced as the original "pulley" was gone, however there was part of the "pulley" still in the dirt. A new sistema has been placed beside the item.
Thanks for the fun out here today sacada and apologies for the generic logs
will be back out tomorrow for some more with FFLL

will be back out tomorrow for some more with FFLL As much as I love geoart, I didn't think we would have the time to get to do this great picture. Fortunately, Earthbound Chief, papi4506 and OzHockeyChick were up for the challenge to see how many we could find today. Although we didn't get the chance to look for them all, we found most of what we looked for. Mrs Earthbound Chief made a spectacular find of one particular cache that had been well and truly "logged". A couple of dnf's doesn't seem too bad when you see the extent of logging. Thank you for placing and maintaining this series. We do hope to get back and finish sometime in the not too distant future.
We were given the opportunity to try and find some of this stunning geoart so couldn't pass it up. Earthbound Chief, Geoturtle37, OzHockeyChick and I set off to find as many as we could. Unfortunately, we didn't manage to find them all, although we found most of what we looked for. We did have a couple of dnf's and the logging certainly made a couple extremely hard to locate but Mrs Chief certainly found a needle in a haystack at one location. We will not have the time to get back and finish the series this trip but hope to do so sometime in the future. We had a great day with wonderful company and many laughs. Thanks for placing and maintaining this series.
Attempted the Kowan Roo geoart in the company of OzHockeyChick, Papi4506 and Geoturtle37. A crazy day out with fun people that we enjoy spending time with. A variety of landscapes to enjoy on a perfect weather day. Thanks for providing the reason for the adventure, sacada.

A fun day out with Papi4506, Geoturtle37 and Earthbound Chief, making a start on this interesting geoart. A couple of dnfs, a couple of needles in haystacks found, and one particularly fun extraction. Thanks for an adventurous day.

For some time, as with many around these parts, I’ve wanted to tackle the Kowen Roo. With the Summer heat over and the Winter chill yet to arrive I thought it most opportune to start this most monumental of tasks. Having researched the job ahead, taken into consideration the lay of the land, most advantageous entry and exit points, I thought bugger it, I want to start at #1. No delusions of grandeur today, the goal for the day was to complete the tail, as well as a few others caches located close by.
It was a relatively early start to the adventure, I only had half a day before family commitments kicked in. Parked at the gate on Kowen Road and headed steadily up the sealed road. As it turned and continued climbing Westwards I kept my line and headed straight into the trees. Deciding it best I skirted along the ridge at level around, and around, rather than heading down, up, down up. The growth not too thick or heavy under foot so it was a constant pace all the way to the dry creek bed directly below the first target of the day (#01). Turned and headed straight up to the track above, eventually on clear ground it was a quick find, the coordinates (to all roo mystery caches) calculated over 18 months ago.
From the there it was either along the trail, through the bush, up or down for the rest of the morning. Never found any gold, or encountered the dreaded blackberry growth. Black Cockatoos in full song as the sun started to rise above the tree line. As the temperature warmed to a comfortable level I continued along the back of the tail before cutting Westwards for the inner side. Here I came across a large recently harvested pine tree area. What a mess, but I guess you gotta be hard on these trees, they were trees and this was a forest after all. End result caches #84, #85 and #86 gone forever. Didn’t venture into the campground, but I understand a bit of work had also been undertaken close to that as well. Hopefully the CO can attend to these soon, if that is actually possible.
Slowly back along the inner side of tail, eventually ending up ay #94. From there as directly back to the geomobile as possible, then home to a hot shower and lunch, and a beer, and another beer.
Apologies for the generic logs, all caches were found in good to reasonable condition. Some a little damp inside or had a crack or two in the container. Any specific, important or remotely interesting details added at the end of the log.
Thanks to the COs, specifically sacada, for placing AND maintaining the caches, not an easy task in this neck of the woods. TNLNSL TFTC

Thanks for creating a beyond awesome power/art trail in fantastic surroundings and providing me with the opportunity to become fit while looking for these geocaches. TFTC.
I decided to have a go at the series and grabbed the dog and set off today about 830am and by the time we had got to the first one I thought this is going to be a long walk for both of us. Cheers
Found with nissan 65 . After attending an event over the weekend we heard these caches may end up inaccessible due to logging in the near future so we hatched a plan to come and collect smiley faces. We headed up from the coast after work last night and stayed in Goulburn so we could get asn early start. Beautiful day out here today. Thankyou for a great day and very nice geoart series.
From November 5th to November 30th I studied English at ILSC. After these month I rent a car for traveling and driving to Melbourne because my return flight is from Melbourne. Today I came from Sydney to Canberra and began the Kangaroo Caches in the Kowen Roo Park. I had only time from 4pm to the evenning/night. Now I found 27 boxes. The start was heavy with strong ups and downs. But after the first boxes it goes easier. For some boxes I had search a Long time. The most boxes I found quickly. Some boxes were wet. The landscape is great and I saw a lot of Kangaroos.
Here I had a long search and found the box About 15m to East.
Thanks for the cache from Bonn, Germany

First day of our roo hunting. We are so excited about this amazing GeoArt. It was a quite long day through the Kowen forest.
We found 41 caches (0 DNF), and walked about 21km. We made the tail and back leg of the roo.
We found most of them very quickly, though for some of them our GPS was jumping. But with the hint (stump, stump …!) it was somewhat easy to find it. Some of the caches need also a bit a maintenance (logbook wet, container broken).
We really liked walking through all these pine trees. The landscape between #65/#70 changed. The forest has been cleaned.
All along the weekend we saw roos (plenty plenty), spider webs, different type of birds, one black snake and a fox family with 2 babies! So cuuuute!
The next day will be the head and the front leg. We plan to finish it soon
Thanks Sacada for this series and this GeoArt.

TFTC - found with Darkmadviking and KingPin4 on our day of hiking today - beautiful day to do some of the Roo
Came out this way for a walk with Darkmadviking and Lighthouse princess and took out a chunk of the kangaroo's tail.
Signed the logs as KP4, DMV and LHP.
Thanks for the fun day Sacada!

A lovely spring day and a total of 7 hours hiking around Kowen picking up the Kangaroo series geocaches. As well as testing our fitness, we were doing more testing on our kit that we're taking to Everest Base Camp in 5 weeks time!

Found with the Crunchers team (see note on #02). Still no trail but pretty easy going through open forest from #93.
Found with Kittykatch, DarkSideDan,ALL7, Lindachris31, Sebass14 and Lola1983 (the crunchers team) ready to have a go at the Roo. Knew it was going to be tough but gees the start from Sutton Rd was a killer. Nearly finished me off before I got the first cache and lots was hurting by the end of the day. Some caches were in good condition and some were in great need of maintenance. Some were in areas that had been logged and we replaced what we could. We did the tail and the back leg today and will try and come back soon to do some more. Thanks for getting us out and about.
Group Name of Crunchers...Found with Kittykatch, DarkSideDan, Joolay, Lindachris31, Sebass14 and Lola1983 ready to have a go at the Roo. Beautiful warm weather today... Thanks
Found with Kittykatch, DarkSideDan, ALL7, Lindachris31, Sebass14, Joolay and Lola1983. We signed all caches with a team name "Krunchers" to save room in the logbooks
I Knew it was going to be tough and we did about 21kms today. Some caches were in good condition and some were in urgent need of maintenance. Some were in areas that had been logged so we replaced what was destroyed. We did the tail and the back leg today and will try and come back soon to do some more. Thanks for getting us out and about.

Only managed the tail section of the ‘roo’ today. Started at the end and went backwards. Lots of roo’s around! Only just made it back to the car before my phone ran out of batteries .

On a mission to achieve my average of 1 per day for this year ... a very welcome find, 5 to go! TFTC
The pine forest is so different from the old growth with its beautiful gullies. Ta
On our way to Canberra we spotted this lovely GeoArt. We hope to make at least a few of the caches.

Out today to grab a quick handful and decided to grab the tail end "see what I did there!" of the roo series. - TFTC
Aquilus1 applied for a permit to drive in to the camping area both days of this weekend, to start on the roo, and she invited me to come with her if it was approved - which happened at the last minute ... I decided that Geocaching ... with someone crazy enough to invite ME to go with them - was a better plan for the weekend than my art quilt meeting Saturday or the Landcare working bee on Sunday ... so I was collected on Saturday morning (11/11/17 and off we went ... we parked at the campground and the 2 of us walked up the back, and around the head and front legs, and collected a couple of the last finds for the day as we drove out ... found 43 caches, in the 13 hours we were out there. Then on Sunday I was collected even earlier in the morning, then Aquilis1 drove down the other end of town and we collected CBRGrahams, who had not been able to join us on Saturday but was free Sunday, and we spent almost 9 hours out there finding more than 50 caches ... the plan was to do quite a few, and just have to come back for the tail or something later ... but the end result? - CBRGrahams has a nice long days walk to come out and do some other time, and Aquilus1 and I have done the whole roo! (Well - apart from the one missing cache, but we did also find about 3 extras that were in/around the 'roo
This was one of the Sunday finds ... with one more set of eyes than the day before
TFTC - I was laughing as we headed for this one... mostly because we were talking about how long Aquilus1 and I had been out here yesterday, and then again today, and she said "as far as recovery walks go, it might have been a little extreme"
Maybe... but I still had some energy left... Slept well that night though
This was our last cache for the day, because Aquilus1 and I have found them all (apart from the one that is missing, presumed destroyed) and those CBRgrahams has not found are all ones he can get when he does a nice loop walk or 2 over the other side ...
I really wasn't expecting we would find all of these this weekend... but I am glad we have... might have taken me several trips over several years if I had just come out here by myself... I am now pleased to be able to say WOO HOO! - I HAVE DONE THE 'ROO!
(and if/when that missing one is replaced - I will have to come out and find it
Thanks to the CO for placing all these ... A yellow smiley skippy will look pretty on my map, even if it does have a blue toe for a while - lol

Day two of 'the roo' with CBR-Grahams along today and with Aykayem we set off much earlier than the previous day on a perfect caching day, mostly cloudy and only getting a bit hot through the middle of the day. A long but enjoyable day with good company and loved the varied scenery and lots of wildlife in a really nice area. Some challenging terrain at times but 54 caches found along the way today and pleased to have the whole series found in the two days. Thanks for the cache sacada, a great series and well worth the work to complete.
Arrived to a huge mob of roos cross the road and head down towards the cache, our last cache of the "roo" and feel very pleased to have put in the hard walk and so many hours and all complete and done!

It was a long, long day out at the Kowen Roo. I fell over flat on my back on a wobbly rock early on and got away with just a winding and bruised pride.
We shadowed another group of cachers: runner5ive and Aramil au, finally meeting up around bear the end of the tail.
My partners in the days caching expeditions: Aquilus1 and Aykayem had spent the day before out here as well, collecting 43 of the more difficult and further out caches. Today I joined them for a journey around the rear legs and the tail... All in all we found 54 today, so very sorry for the generic log. This cache was 54th

I cairn see it now! Out with dty73 & we ended up walking through the forest rather than along the roads. Kutgw
Out with Youban on a mild day to see how far we could come on the Roo (not far). It was a long way in from the parking to this cache, but it got a little easier once we started.
Quickly found this cache in good order. Tftc!!!

Time to come back and pick up a few more of these caches. Parked below the entrance gate on Kowan Rd and headed out on the pushbike. There were some critical decisions to make along the way, such as which fork in the path to take on the bike to minimize the amount of bush bashing. Failed on several choices and ended up pushing the bike through the trees a few times. At least the exercise was worth it. Had to give up around midday due to the national car rally having blocked off most of the eastern trails. Several wet logs, all in non-sistema containers. TFTC
Another fantastic weekend away with The Rats and Steeba.
We had been trying for some time to get the timing right to head back to the ACT to knock over the Kowen 'Roo series. On our previous attempt, the Forest was closed. We thought the same would happen this weekend, when we realised that we were clashing with the Mont 24, so we came up with Plan B.
However, Steeba came through with the goods, access was granted, and even a Permit to drive and camp in the Forest was obtained... Excellent! So our plans changed at the very last minute, and we were back on for The 'Roo.
We found about 150 caches over the weekend, the three of us, along with Juno my geo-puppy. We walked, cached, talked and generally had an excellent time, as we always do on our caching trips away. We especially walked through some beautiful scrub in Goulburn and Kowen.
Thank you to all of the cache owners that placed caches that we found over the course of our trip. Sorry about the generic logging, I promise it does not reflect my enjoyment of your cache!

When a weekend caching with the boys comes along you grab it by the horns, with kids weekend sport washed out steeba, Hoojar and myself headed south with a goal of completing the Kangaroo power trail in Kowen Forest.
Over 2 days we found 150+ caches, walked through 679 spiderwebs, saw 310 kangaroos, were surprised by 8 deer, patted 1 echidna and stepped over countless fallen, all in the name of fun.
Thanks to all the cache owners who contributed to our weekend and apologises for the generic log, but certainly doesn't detract from the hide or the fun we had.

Another great weekend away with Hoojar and The Rats. This time it was down to tackle the kangaroo- last time we had attempted it the forest was closed.
We had an enjoyable time walking around the forest over the weekend with the varied landscapes. Thanks for setting this series up.

At the suggestion of Seemyshell, the group of 4 keen geocachers (Seemyshell, Aries44, Brewmaker and Pipes_down_under) headed down from Sydney for a geo-camping weekend to attack The Kowen Roo Series. Planning was undertaken for the routes to take was to allow us the maximum time to complete the series.
Initially were intended to do the complete series on Mountain Bikes for the Tail on day 1, Body on day 2 and Legs on day 3.
Not really knowing the terrain, day 1 was a good day of caching and slowly worked through the route but by day 2, the riding, walking, riding was taking its toll and it became evident at this rate, we would not finish the trail in the 3 days we had organised. Back to the campsite on Day 2 for lunch and reassess our commitment. The commitment was still there by us all but the means of attacking them was the trouble. Looking at the routes again we thought it may be achievable to complete with the assistance of a 4WD. Boy! was that ever needed as we found out the tracks on the way were indeed very difficult on bikes and was blessed by the capability of the vehicle.
Even with the 4WD it was doubtful we would complete it in our allotted time due to some of the caches taking longer to find. However, by upping our speed we managed to complete the series an hour earlier than our 'up-stumps' time.
Thanks Geo-buddies for a great 3 days.
But! KUDOS (praise and honour) must go to sacada for such an awesome geocaching trail. Unbelievable the time and effort in laying the caches and the informative and fun detail into each of the cache descriptions. It is a fantastic trail to do.
At the suggestion of Seemyshell, the group of 4 keen geocachers (Seemyshell, Aries44, Brewmaker and Pipes_down_under) headed down from Sydney for a geo-camping weekend to attack The Kowen Roo Series. Planning was undertaken for the routes to take was to allow us the maximum time to complete the series.
Initially were intended to do the complete series on Mountain Bikes for the Tail on day 1, Body on day 2 and Legs on day 3.

Four Geobuddies (Aries 44, Pipes_Down_Under, Seemyshell & Brewmaker) headed to Kowen State Forest from Sydney to attempt the Kowen Roo series. Over three days we found all but two in the series, plus a few others for a total of 96 smileys.
We started off on pushbikes, but quickly discovered we wouldn't get through them all that way as the terrain is pretty tough at times, so we used the 4WD to get around the forest.
Thanks sacada for the effort and time that went into planning and placing the caches. Despite sore limbs, some sunburn and multiple blackberry scratches, it was worth the trip south to the ACT. We had a great time in this wonderful place and working through a great series. And we saw plenty of roos and black cockatoos over the 3 days. TFTC. #538.

Down from Sydney to attempt the Kowan Roo caches with geobuddies (Seemyshell, Pipes_Down_Under and Brewmaker) over a three day camp-out at the homestead. Managed to locate all except two elusive caches in the series, plus a couple of extras.
By midday, day 2 we realised it would be impossible to complete the series in the time available and some of the roads were very steep and required walking the mountain bikes. So we took to one of the 4WD's and just managed to complete the series on the afternoon of day 3. One of our number (Pipes_Down_Under) spent sometime prior to the trip, planning out the most efficient way around the series. I certainly recommend doing this prior to taking on the series.
A hard series but fun with some great views along the way and we all appreciate the work the CO has put into this series. I am going to give a favourite here for the whole Kowan Roo Series. TFTC(s) sacada.

Today was the day to start on the roo, with Kel Mar and the best temprature to suit this terrain TFTC sacada
- 10105. Today was my second visit to the Kowen Roo series. Grabbed another 30 during a long, hot walk through the region.
Parked at the locked gate and walked up a few roads and trails to get to my starting point of #94. Having already done the top of the tail and back (#1 to #17), I wanted to complete the bottom of the tail and complete the hind leg today.
Pleasant enough walk up the hill and along the various trails, and some bush bashing when appropriate. It got a bit warm later in the day but I managed 30 out of 30 walking 24Kms in under 8 hours - happy with that ! This one was another nice quick find. Signed, returned, and I was off to the next one.
Thanks again sacada ! A few more trips required yet to finish off this great series !

Yes, another found and it's a different tub - great spot and one that we could bush bad to. Lots of Roos hopping around this spot. Thanks for the cache
- great spot and one that we could bush bad to. Lots of Roos hopping around this spot. Thanks for the cacheChristmas = a free day and with the great weather, we decided to finally tackle Kowen Roo. We tried by bike - big mistake!! Although we do a fair bit of riding, we are definitely not mountain bikers and this was far too much for us to handle. There's a reason they are called pushbikes. Given the undulating terrain that never seemed to let up and the many caches that were off the path (that you warned us about in the description!) we got pretty tired quite quickly. I'm not sure how much time the bikes actually saved us in the end. Decided to just do a small section today and will be back some time on foot. Thanks sacada 
The transition from cache to cache is becoming easier. We may just achieve our goal!
#947 Sacada, you have created a fine piece of geocaching engineering here, it is truly an unbelievable series of caches outlining that of a kanagroo. I don’t know how you worked it all out… But today I found roughly 61 of the 94 caches, with the green-martian. We bypassed 5 caches near the front leg of the kangaroo and the entire back leg, due to time restrictions. Total time was 11 hours 15 minutes covering 32.5kms on foot. I have never personally walked this far in any one given day ever before… not to mention the really steep uphills. Elevation ranged from 600 metres to 910 metres. We found cache numbers 1 to 47 and 81 to 94. (we could not find 25 and 26 due to logging at GZ). We missed 48 to 51, 53, 55 to 80. I saw the following during the day: pair of rubber gloves, pair of ladies shoes, a number plate, a chrome bumper, mudflap, dead fox, box cutter, some heavy logging machinery, 4 kangaroos, 6 tubs of blue paint and lots of black cockatoos. Kowen Forrest really does have millions of trees including a lot of fallen ones. We will be back to find the remaining caches…
Sacada, this series you created is a work of art. Normally when caches are placed in forests they are close to dirt rds thus easier to find, however as this series follows a massive kangaroo, it doesn't always follow set paths and this meant there was alot of bush bashing in between caches. The landscape in such a massive forest changed dramatically, with many steep inclines, ditches and obstacles like fallen trees. I wanted to complete the whole kangaroo in one day, but TheSkype was wiser and I realized that he was correct. By the time we got around to the kangaroos paws sunset was only 3 hrs away so we missed the paw and legs and just barely got back to car before the sun disappeared. That was 32.5km so with the legs and paw it would have been closer to 40km. That's tough in one day. We will complete the series in due time☺ anyway awesome series, Sacada you have surprised me how much effort you put into this. TFTC.
Another full day out on the bikes with 0sheath98 today! Infant we started at 7:30am and got back to the car at 4:30pm. Thats a huge 9 hours out in the sun on a beautiful 32 degree day! We were wrecked by the end of it. Three litres of water each, plus some ice cold coffee drinks pulled us through.
ALL caches were found today, most taking between 0 - 2 mins with a couple taking slightly longer. Lots of uphill and downhill, about 25km on bike and another 6-10km on foot.
Thanks again sacada for such an amazing series, we still have the leg to do but thats it! So we are nearing the finish, hopefully we will complete it soon
(Sorry for the generic logs, such a full day I can't remember the caches. Hope you understand)

Missed this one on my first visit a few months ago, so it was back up today to grab it and to finished the series. A good day to be out, as others obviously thought as well as I passed another couple of walkers who I thought might have been cachers...but then again maybe not.
Cache was found without issue but had to sign the log book with a piece of bark as my pen decided not to work......first time in over 20,000 finds that has happened to me. Photo of my log attached.......
Thanks sacada....series completed.

That is a STEEP hill up from the car park. I pushed my bicycle up most of it. I plan to buy a mountain bike with electric motor before my next trip here, and leave the road bike at home. Still, I think that was the worst section today. Once at the top the cycling got easier (a bit 
). TFTC sacada.
). TFTC sacada.1st find this afternoon while out with Goldenwattle and Decrypter. We cycled some of the way, sometimes pushed our bikes and also walked. TFTC
I spent the afternoon cycling and walking between caches with Trodectus and Goldenwattle. This was the first find. TFTC sacada.
We walked direct to this one. There has been some large equipment through this area recently. We managed to follow the tracks for some of the way.
Found on a weekend camping in Kowen Forest with 7 year old JetFuselage and my husband White Chocolate Mocha. Logs signed as B737, JF and WCM. See Kowen Roo #91 for the detailed log for this visit.
Found with my geoparents while camping in Kowen forest. See Mum's detailed log at #91.
Found with my geowife and geoson while camping in Kowen Forest. Not a geo-nut like my wife but I came along so she and our son weren't out here alone. Liked seeing the echidna & lizard. It was a pity our stay got cut short. Will definitely camp & cache here again.
I discovered the Roo while prepare my visit to my dauhter and son in law and knew straight away I have to do it. We have contacted the owner prior doing the cache and have prepared ourselves well.
I already had some expectations as I have done many day hikes in Austria through the Alpes.
Soon we found a date together with my son in law which was as follows
Day 1
We reached the main parking area at around 8:30am and packed our bags for the day.
There was already a challenge to begin with when we had to cross great rocks and little gorges up and down. But then, we finally got the first cache.
We then followed the trail to the valley and later in and out of the forest straight through there. It sometimes took a bit of time to find each cache. We were able to find all caches except number 30 where we hiked back to our car.
We spotted many roos and were happy to see them in nature.
After the exhausting hike but many many breathtaking views and beautiful weather we returned back to the car at 6pm just in time before it got dark. Our goal for the day was accomplished.
it was the longest hike for my son in law to date.
Day 2
6:30am breakfast at mcDonalds.
After, we followed the Binglay Way and passed the north gate heading to cache 31.
here we started out todays hike.
We already had to walk up and down the pine forest. We had beautiful weather ll day long. We reached the roo's leg at the end of the day.
We saw many roo's and were happy about the great caches.
We reached the north gate at around 6pm and headed back to our car.
DAY 3
Today we started again at the main gate at number 94 backwards along the roo's tail.
And again we hiked in and out of the forest and have seen many kangaroos.
Soon we arrived at the leg where it was steeply going down hill.
We of course also planned to change the star into smileys so we left the roo at its leg and walked to the star.
Here there was quite a challenge waiting for us thinking we could easily cross the Molonglo river here..
There was no crossing or bridge a like so we started collecting big logs and branches to build our own bridge. Soon we got across and started the star.
On the way back we had to cross the river again and had to climb up the hill to get back to the last roo caches.
We saw many beautiful roos and were happy to see such beautiful landscape.
We were very happy to sign the last cache of the roo and to have that many smileys on the map.
Thank you Sacada for the nice geo art and the hard work it must have cost you placing those caches. They are all well looked after also.

We walked 81.8km in 3 days. Uhh that was quite a challenge.
And the final find for the day - singled out by McPhan and I for a sidetrack to remedy a DNF on our last visit when this location had been trashed by big machinery doing some clearing. No trouble making a quick find today.
And so the day came to an end as we pressed for the pick up point. A stunning spring day to be out and about, wonderful views, and great walking not only along the tracks but often some very pleasant short cuts through the forest if there wasn't too much in the way of obstacles underfoot. The McWin7 team doesn't get together often enough these days, so it was great to have the group back together for another tour, good conversation, the usual fooling around and more. It should be noted that McPhan dragged himself from his sickbed, so desperate was he not to miss this outing and he walked extremely well for a man with a serious dose of man-flu. Thanks McPhan and Zz7 for a great day out, and again thanks Sacada for this very impressive series.

Who wouldn’t jump at an invitation to cache with McPhan and Mrs Winglen? Keenly accepted. Today was a beauty, splendid weather and company and the location just oozing caches everywhere I looked. I really must get out more…
Things gained: Fun times! Lots of finds for the day, I think I nabbed over 40. Excellent exchange of gossip ranging from vanilla to malicious; counsel in battlefield first aid, salmon cooking methods, kayak water dynamics, body fat measurement, gardening tips and sooky dogs. Fiats have unusual interior door handles, and can be a challenge to push start.
Things lost: Body fat, quite a few litres of water, various pens and batteries, winter gloom!
Thanks Mr Winglen for the tracks, logistics and grand chauffeur service.
Thanks Sacada for a fantastic effort in building this series of caches. Top notch.

9077 and 42nd of 42 found today.
[font=Verdana] [Green] Well we (Winglen [-1] and me] managed to get together again on our timing to allow another go at this series. Mr W was very noble in procuring an injury that wouldn't allow him to walk with us but did allow for a very efficient (from my point of view drop off and pick up service in a luxury vehicle.
To add another element we managed to entice (by simply asking) ZZ7 along for the wander thus re-convening the oft used and beloved McWin7 moniker. So we were dropped off around 9:00 am and finished the section we did around eight and a half hours and 22.6km later.
I had kept my eye on the weather forecast as last time we were here the forecast was pretty carp. Today it promised a glorious day and that was delivered in spades, clubs, diamonds and hearts. Couple that with great company, some special scenery, a pod of 4 echidna, lots of caches and a lot of fun tinged with some silliness and the day was one to remember.
Lots of time to talk and [s]pry gossip from each other[/s] learn more about the current and future plans of the team.
Along the way I think we managed to find almost equal numbers of caches although running out of battery power was a rookie mistake by me (hence the generic logs) but I blame the lack of foresight on doing a Lazarus and getting off my deathbed to come along today (A big thanks to my sponsor for the day Xxxxxx Cold and Flu Hot Drink and Xxxxxx First Signs Day + Night Cold & Flu Liquid Capsules).
We had three stops which roughly equated to morning and afternoon smoko and of course lunch. All were taken with great scenery and in one spot some interesting history that we may not have known if not for a competing on-line game run by Google.
I must make mention of Mr W's route planning pre-trip and Mrs W's route planning while in the field. Exemplary and saved us a lot of unnecessary kilometerage. After the early very steep verging on ridiculous uphills we did this was appreciated toward the end.
All in all a fantastic day that was topped off by being allowed into the hallowed ground that is ZZ7's pad and a few well earned and deserved liquid refreshments.
Many thanks to the Winglens and ZZ7 for a fantastic day.[/Green]
Thanks for the cache [Blue]sacada[/Blue] and the series to boot (which we will finish next time) and for replacing this one so promptly. It was going to annoy us sitting out there if you hadn't. [font=Verdana]
