In the area visiting son Wombats Inc. Couldn’t locate it. This cache has been relocated with no real information about its new whereabouts, nor are there any revised co-ordinates. The CO should check whether this cache is still valid.
Nope. YVAL and myself couldn’t find it. Not at GZ. Checked obvious areas but nothing. Fading light and a watchful muggle across the street. Another day.
Found a micro out in the open, about 10m from co-ords but assume this is it! Inside were two wadded, unusable logs, so I put in a new slip of paper, and re-hid the cache more or less in the same place but better hidden. Think this might need a review.
Found with b0tmun on the way to collect on some puzzles we have been solving. Tried he wrong gz's first but once in the right spot a nice easy find
Saturday 3 September 2016 - a cold windy overcast Spring day spitting rain intermittently as we walked over 5.6km in 2.5hrs to find 11 from 14 caches. Unfortunately it wasn't meant to be despite a long search - is it in the Wattle tree or the Melaluku Tree - GPS showed between the two?
The RoddyCs are visiting Canberra for Easter We set aside today to find 100 caches to complete a challenge. This is the last of BettyBoo3747's challenges we have to complete, so we have a great day for it around Jerrabomberra then down to Captains Flat
This one was a tad different to the other pathway caches - probably due to its changed location.
Found at 9.05am on 20th April 2016. TFTC.

The log is wet and coordinates are a little off. But nice area with ducks nearby.
Found this on the ground.... Log was way to wet to sign but have put back where I think it was meant to go. Photo for proof of find
Saw that a few caches had been replaced so thought I would come back out and see how much I could get done. Coords are very off. Found this one on the ground next to nothing, so replaced it where I thought it was meant to be. Very damp log book. Tftc
The folloiwng is from a facebook post I made:
I was subject to the most ferocious magpie attack today that I've yet experienced. I was out at Jerrabomberra collecting a few caches (as one does). At Jerrabomberra Pathways #14 I was swooped a couple of times, but nothing I was too worried about. I was wearing a bike helmet at the time and I'm not easily scared off by such things. Anyway, after a fruitless search for the cache, the magpie was becoming increasingly upset by my presence and really stepped it up a notch. I had a short ride down to the next cache but by this time the magpie was hitting me constantly. I wasn't counting, but I guess I was hit about 10 times by the time it gave up. There are now numerous beaky indentations on my helmet - see pic. No blood was drawn thankfully.
Well it is the season. If I learned something, it is that it's probably best to leave if a magpie is attacking. Hanging around just makes it worse.
We came, we seeked, but came up empty handed. Thanks anyway. I think I've had enough for today.

The original tree has indeed gone. I have moved it to the biggest tree north of the original tree. It is about 10metres away. Updated co-ords will be provided soon.
Took three goes to get this one as there were workers cutting up the tree that the cache was in. I did others and came back. It looks like they will be back soon to remove the rest of the tree. They didn't spot the cache (or didn't remove it), so I moved it to the next tree to the south. You may want to update the coords though they are not far out.
Nice afternoon for walking the Jerra paths. TFTC justjessie. Took three goes to get this one as there were workers cutting up the tree that the cache was in. I did others and came back.

Again in the obvious spot but had to read through previous logs to make the connection. GPS had us further into the trees. Just glad we didn't have to search for a hanging bison tube amongst the spiders and dense trees! Thanks justjessie
Easy find. Contents a little damp but still ok. I replaced container cap side down to reduce the chance of water getting in. TFTC

Easy find after seeing 2 snakes, bitten by ants and walking too close to the lake :') thanks for the find
Most geocachers, even less addicted ones than ourselves would probably want to start the new year with at least one cache, so we had to go out to get this one to add to our New Years day total. Thanks to justjessie for placing this cache and Happy New Year.
Quick to find - I spotted the cache without any help whilst my partner in crime was putting coords into the GPS! Log was in very poor condition. Great series of caches, thx.
Found on an ACT (and beyond) caching raid with Hoojar over 48hrs. We did some bike riding, plenty of walking and driving, some pouring rain and a bit of heat in the sun.
Quite liked this series of caches- we had a bit of rain but an interesting tour of a spot where I'd only been briefly before.
TFTC!

When steeba suggested a trip to Canberra and Queanbeyan to tackles some more power trails, I could hardly say no! Eventaully our diaries aliigned, and this was to be the weekend. We headed down on Friday evening, and were home again 48 hours later. A great weekend with lots of walking, riding, rain, heat, wind, and caches, lots and lots of caches!
We tackled this series in the rain on an early Sunday morning. At times it poured, and times it teamed, and at times it just rained. We finished the series regardless!
Cheers

Found it, the last for the series for me, I really enjoy them. Thanks for the tour.
Out for an evening walk .. Quick find, we covered it a bit better this time. Didn't have a pen so couldn't log.
Out with SecretSquirrel-BJC for a caching morning. Managed to pick up most of the Jerra pathways caches. TFTC
It's Saturday. It's good weather - mostly fine, with a nice chill in the air. I've been crook during the week - I lost seven pounds worshiping the porcelain god, in 24 hours, but I'm better now. I haven't found a cache since Sunday (but I have been looking at puzzle caches). The GeoSchnauzers are looking alert - I've picked up my GPS.
The dogs were unlucky on this one. I parked to get my bearings, and found I was right beside the cache. So I hopped ou and grabbed it. Thanks for this one, nice hide!!

Accompanied with Sevabo and Skyejam for the day before they return back to Sydney... Signed the log. Thanks Justjessie.
Great day out for caching with Everlasting and skyejam - enjoyed the travelling. Thanks for the caches around here.
Found the cache with Everlasting and sevabo. Thank you justjessie for bringing us here on the lovely sunny day.
Mr Domsky spotted this one very quickly.
Log signed and off to the next one.
Thanks justjessie,

Good morning out with the kids. What are beautiful sunny day to be out exploring and riding bikes... with a bit of a treasure hunt!!
Paper was a bit damp inside.
Paper was a bit damp inside.
It's wet shoes, can't get my navigator to work. No idea and it's late and cold. Oh well on to the next.
Found it. And also found the old log outside of the cache near the hiding spot. I put them both back in and where they belong
#2224 - 20:50; Found myself back in Jerrabomberra this evening as the geoteen wanted to come over here for a dance class. Oh well, two hours to kill, so eine kleine nachtcaching was the order of the night! I had been over recently and picked up the first few in this series, so with time on my hands, it was off to try for the rest of them. This one was easily located and I retrieved a pathtag as an added bonus . Once I had the log signed and cache replaced I headed bush on a detour to grab a couple of bonus caches on the way to the end of this trail so I could work my way back to where I'd left the geomobile. TFTC justjessie
A great series with a lot of variety in the containers and hides, great effort! Had fun driving around Jerrabomberra, where I never had been before. Looked like a nice place to live (I prefer the white castle at the lake!!). Was able to do all of them in about 2-3 hours and a few extra's on the way. Weather was really good today wich made for easy going as well.

I came to continue the pathways series - Jerra is a nice suburb - I can see what people live here. Thanks justjessie
Another cross-border foray into the delightful homes, paths and bush reserves of Jerrabomberra. We did a bit of walking and a bit of driving. Only a few people looked at us strangely as Marmaduke Rothschild and I skulked around various places. Soggy log, so we left a piece of paper. TFTC.
We headed out today with Boot65 and Rapidlywild to clean up a few around Jerrabomberra and Queanbeyan. Met up at the meeting point and started our adventure. After finishing our morning trekking through the bush and grabbing a bite to eat. We were ready for our afternoon expedition. We had to wait for some muggles to pass before collecting this one. What a great way spend 'straya day! TFTC
Our 18th find on a sweep around Jerrabomberra. Don't know this area at all, so I teamed up with clemdoog for a fun afternoon. Again, there were mo muggles walking near this pathway while we did the quick search, sign and replace. I think the hot summer day may be keeping people near their air-cons. Thanks for bringing us here and TFTC!
Reperio at 1755.
Arrived in the ACT last night ahead of the upcoming 10 Year Earthcache event at Wasp Head...and had the day free to find a few caches. After heading out to Googong Dam, I returned past this way to the city center and stopped to do this series. A nice quick find here.
Gratias justjessie.

Pretty sure I grabbed this one a while ago as I knew exactly where it was but haven't logged it so must not have a pen! TFTC!
