I spent way too long trusting the app and was giving up, as the trig is what I came for, but spotted it on the other side of the trig as I was leaving. Tftc.

#5. Nice hide and a well thought out hint. Great camo work in particular. The coords were a little way off for us but the gallery/spoiler images definitely helped. Seems like our iPhone GPS location wasn’t too well calibrated today. Nonetheless TFTC and a favourite point for the unique camo work.

In the spirit of reconciliation we would like to acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of country on which we geocache throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We (the pants people) pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.

I am not out this way too often and this hill had always looked interesting with a number of caches on here and a trig. So this was the aim of todays mission while I was in Beard for a service.

Took a minute as I focused too much on the coords find, nice cache, all in good order.

Thank you Minifig Ant for putting the cache out and maintaining it.

Stumbled across this while on a ride, cache in good condition but watch for furry caterpillars - a few had taken up residence in the bag.

Had to resort to the hint as the iPhone had is a little bit away from the hide.

I was silly enough to think I might not have to walk all the way to the top!

I've now collected all the caches that on Mt Jerra itself; but still a few to go around the perimeter.

TFTC!

Argh, had already cycled my way down to the one at the Scar and punched this one in. Back up for the 2nd time. Found the cache quickly in between two groups of muggles.

And in a much less mugglier place I soon found the prize [^]

First day of a long weekend caching. Today was the trip to the mega via Hume and Queanbeyan. Lots of talk at the showground and lots of caches in the close area, lots of fun! Thanks for placing all the caches. Great walk here at mt Jerra, with some spectacular views!

A quick but careful shimmy up the path for a quick find. Passed a few muggles along the way, cache logged, rehidden and I was off before they summited. TNLNSL TFTC

Diverted off the more recently placed ZimbaW trail to get a couple of oldies. Back when I started in 2014, 2010 didn't seem like that long ago. But now caches hidden this long ago are almost 10 years old! That is quite impressive!

These camo bags are very very rare to see in Australia, only ever come across a handful of them in my ~7000 finds. But I think they are extremely underrated! The cache itself is in absolutely perfect condition, as is the contents inside. Usually plastic geocaches degrade when they get to this age, but the camo bag makes them very long lasting! Wish they were more common!

Thanks Minifig Ant, a great location

I had done my circuit of the hill and was back at the water tanks when I realised I had missed doing this cache. (The icon was under the trig icon on my GPS). As the rain has just eased, I decided to walk back up the hill again to grab it. Took a little while to spot and I didnt notice the object mentioned in the hint (too bush looking down and not up!).

Thanks,

A walk in along the ridge and another great view. Is this the top or the lookout the top of Mt Jerrabombera?

Tftc. A quick find after walking up the hard way. Met a muggle near GZ who mentioned he walked up here every night. Top spot.

A nice easy find whilst out on the hill. Noticed that the slide was still keeping guard but was now located under the cache hiding on the rock. TFTC - Docadoo Smile

Sunday 17 December 2017 - a very hot Summer's day in the low 30s with a brilliant blue sky and very little breeze to cool the sweaty body. Rode bike, then walked just short of 6km up, down and around the mountain Jerra' to find 8 from 8 caches today (7 trads, 1 multi). Good to have the tree canopy during some of the walk to shade the head from the searing sun. Saw just one large roo as everybody and everything else sensibly stayed home or was hidden from the heat of the day.

Quick and easy find and good walk. Thx p2p. TFTC Minifig Ant.

The Monday evening Omnia walk scaled Mt Jerrabomberra today which gave me the opportunity to find two geocaches in Jerrabomberra and the three on Mt Jerrabomberra. This cache was a straightforward find, being on the coordinates. Thank you Minifig Ant for installing and maintaining this cache.

#3420 - 17:25; Out for an afternoon caching run and decided to give Mount Jerrabomberra a try. Followed the access road for most of the way before tackling the last couple of hundred metres almost straight up. The mountain bike trails made the job a bit easier than it otherwise might have been. Once at the summit, the hunt took a bit longer than I'd planned. The hint meant nothing to me and in the end a spoiler photo helped me make the find, about 10 metres from where the GPSr wanted to take me. Nice views from up here too. TFTC Minifig Ant Smile

Our second find after "Milo and Otis".
The geo-spouse and his geo-Dane accompanied us this morning on a trek across Mt Jerra.
We had a bit of downhill before it was up, up again to "On High".
My smart phone had me looking several meters away so I was glad for the hint.
Thanks for bringing us here and TFTC Minifig Ant

Found on a morning walk up Mt Jerrabomerra for the first time. Was quite a decent walk too, thanks for leading me to this place. TFTC.
 
18-Oct-14
Second time lucky with the help of more daylight and a wider search area. The cache is overflowing with items to swap by the looks of things.
 
16-Oct-14
Arrived before the first rays of dawn as part of a morning exercise routine (5.45 am). With limited time and torchlight did not locate the GC. Further motivation to return soon.

Found it! What a steep track but we made it!

This one worked off our breakfast, not sure if there was an easier way , we sure take the hard way as per usual, with our Geo Grandson in tow with a little bit of moaning and a lot of encouraging, he sure turned out to be a trooper. As we circled GZ he spotted the cache with joyful expression, going down the hill he sure had a big spring in his step.
We didn't see much wild life but heard lots of bird singing. TFTC

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.
