Back to finish off this series, TFTC JacobsCrew!
Log needs replacing as it is all falling apart and torn, sorry nothing with us to replace.

We decided to head out early to do a bit of caching before the heat of the day.
TFTC JacobsCrew this is find # 8754 for us.
TFTC JacobsCrew this is find # 8754 for us.
After a taster a week or two ago, came back to knock off a few more.
Started on the wrong object, but soon dialled in. Tried to get my name onto the wet log. TFTC JacobsCrew.

Whoo hoo done all except the mystery cache not all clues are available ... all good though I don’t need to come back out here for one cache .... cheers Tftc
Another beautiful day out going through the Outback Joe series (23 - 31; 1 - 8; 35 and 36; and 20) Most were fairly straightforward finds (except 35 which took a bit longer) with only a couple of DNFs (5 and 36.) Some logs were quite damp - 20, 28, 30, 31 and 35 and Cache No 23 was thoroughly soaked through and full. In Cache 28, the page with the clue had come away and was falling apart so I wrote the clue on the inside of the plastic cover. All up it was a very enjoyable and highly successful day - thanks again for this great series!
Out with themongrel for a sunday morning walk and then of course somewhere for lunch, We decided on this series as it was nearby a venue we wanted to go for lunch. Most of the caches were easily found including a archived cache which is still in place. TFTC Jacobscrew2. We didn't get all of them today but the few we have left we will grab during the week.
A day out with Itskate doing some walk trails TFTH

Found after a short search. Dropped off TB. It took me nearly 2 years to get here from #29 ! TFTC.
A beautiful autumn day so we headed out to try and get to 1000 finds today, and guess what find this was..... 1000, a nice easy find here today and our 1000th smiley claimed TFTC
We will be back to complete the series but were rushed for time today, see you soon

Thank you! I've had my eye on this series for a while, and decided today was the day. The forecasted showers and storm never eventuated, so with blue skies it ended up warmer than I expected. I did the series in numerical order, as that seemed to involve the least backtracking. Found this one without too much issue.
The weather finally had mercy on human kind in the region and let some spring out, so what better way to spend a day, than geocaching in a good company! Teamed up with Mistraluna, and decided to tackle the Outback Jack series, to get some fresh air, good exercise and lots of smileys on a beautiful walk and believe it or not, no flies, no mozzies - Perfecto! And the best bit was, that we found all the caches, yay!
Headed up this way today with Eliktrisiti, hoping to knock out the Outback Jack series which has been on my radar for way too long, but I just never seemed to get out here to do them. Previous plans always seem to go awry for one reason or another.
But the planets aligned for us today, and two eager geocachers sallied forth, ready for rain, hail or shine, set on a mission to conquer this series at long last. Fortunately the weather held out for us for the entire two circuits, and we managed to find each and every one of the caches (had to resort to PAF on one of them though), whilst another took considerable longer to find than we anticipated also, but we found both eventually. Most of the caches were in good order, but several along the southernmost section of the series were a tad wet and could do with with some TLC when the CO is next out that way.
All in all, an excellent series of caches. Thank you JacobsCrew2 for all the work that went into the planning and placement of this series. We really enjoyed our day out there - was hoping for more wildflowers, but hey, can't have everything I guess. Am more than happy with my swag of smileys.

Got it! \o/.
Headed up into the hills to attempt the Outback Jack Bush walk series. Brought a muggle mate (PBD) with me to introduce him into our sport. Turns out he loves it. What a beautiful peaceful area. Please excuse the copy paste.
This one took a little longer to find.

Found it back on 15 July! Out with Geo-daughter for a start on this series. Grabbed a coffee at the camel farm, then headed out. Will be back to finish rest of series soon.
Last of this series of the day. 21 finds and one DNF. Will return another day to complete the series and hopefully solve the puzzle cache. TFTC
TFTC! Teamed up with a mate this morning to cleanup a loop of the Outback Jack series, before returning the favour and helping out moving some gym equipment after the states on the weekend. Had an enjoyable morning hitting the trailhead at 6am and finding the first few with the assistance of the flash light. Found 20 plus caches with two DNFs. Thanks
Decided to tackle the Outback Jack series today. Parked across the road from #18 and started there. Logged that one at 2:32pm and the last one (#15 - a DNF) at 6:07pm. Found 30 caches and had 5 DNFs. There were 3 that I didn't attempt as it was dark by the time I was on the last leg from 7 through 15 ... I have new specs with a new prescription and was not confident walking through the scrub in the dark so I only did the ones close to the track.
Of the DNFs, I think 34 may be missing and possibly 5 ... I did have a good look for both of those while it was still light, but the others were in the dark and I only had a quick look before moving on.
Thanks for this series JacobsCrew ... I did enjoy the walk, the only downer being the appalling amount of rubish that is dumped in the bush.
I will be back one day for the ones I didn't get. Sorry for generic log

A beautiful spot for a walk as part of the Outback Jack Bush Walk series. TFTC JacobsCrew2
We had a spare day in Perth today and had planned to tackle the Outback Jack series. We woke up to a perfectly beautiful autumn day, so armed with our gps and some supplies we headed off down into the bush. We found all 38 of the caches today, so sorry about the rather generic logs that will be posted on all 38. The caches were hidden in many diverse places. Some were very easy to find, others were more of a challenge. Most were in very good condition apart from one that was rather wet. There are a myriad of tracks running through this bushland, and you do really need a gps to be able to locate where you are and where you have been. We came across some cross country runners as well as a number of mountain bikers who were also enjoying the trails. We even walked on part of the northern end of the Bibbulmun Track, which was interesting as we spend a lot of time on the southern end of it. Thanks JacobsCrew2 for all the work that must have gone into placing all these caches for our enjoyment. We enjoyed the walk and also finding them.
A bit of a hunt for this one something in a haystack.Thanks jacobsCrew2 for a great series.
Good Friday and the weather perfect to find some caches with some mates, a day well spent!

Out on a lovely walk around the area with fellow geocachers. Found this one relatively easy. Thanks.
After successfully completing the first half of this walk a couple weeks ago, I returned this morning with CaVED, PerthGirl65 and a couple friends to complete the series. Most of the caches were quite easy finds. A gorgeous morning for a walk! Thanks JacobsCrew2 for this cache and the entire series.
Did the first half of this series 2 weeks ago and today was a perfect day to find the rest. This was the second of 22 caches we found in this series today. TFTC, JacobsCrew2
A really hot day and just today we decide to do this bush walk.
We were glad when we arrived back at the parking place. Thank you to the owner.

Very enjoyable day walking around the park collecting these caches. Thanks JacobsCrew2 for laying out this series. Took a well deserved break at the camel farm to get some refreshments before venturing forth again. Lots of roos around this area.
(Chwiliwr team catch up log)
I allowed Chwiliwr to go out for a 'walk' so he came up to do this series. Started out cool enough but soon there was a thunderstorm nearby which stopped him for a while until it passed. He walked some more of the series and then there was another storm. Although he did plan to do all of the series the two storms ensured that he didn't have enough time so will have to come back another day to finish them off with me.
Thanks JacobsCrew2 for the cache and series so far.

The better half allowed me to go out for a 'walk' so I came up to do this series. Started out cool enough but soon there was a thunderstorm nearby which stopped me for a while until it passed and made me wet. I walked some more of the series and then there was another storm which stopped me again and this time saturated me. They were not that close and only got the rain bits not the lightning. Although I did plan to do all of the series the two storms ensured that I didn't have enough time so will have to come back another day to finish them off.
I think the storms were affecting the signals as I didn't find any of the GZ locations to be all that accurate today but I did find the caches in the end.

A big morning for geocaching. Was really nice to do the series with some others on the side. Unfortunately, I missed 5 of them. Maybe Ill be back on day. They are all really easy but some of them are like 10m away of my gps position!!!! Thanks anyway for the caches as it was a rally great pleasure to do them.

Found it with Ross1957. What a good way to spend the morning, good company, good bushland, exercise, wild flowers, and annoying tricky caches to find, some easy some hard.
After starting this series a few weeks ago I've come back with Fernio to try and complete it.
We found all the ones we looked for some being really easy and some we had to spend some time on. Had to
look back on previous logs on a couple and even phoned a friend on one.
It is great to have the company and an extra pair of eyes.
Thanks JacobsCrew2 for a fun series.

Out for a walk with my brother and we decided to do this series. Mostly quick easy finds for this series. TFTC
We came back today to continue with these. Thought it would be 2 more days worth, but we walked and walked. A little rain did not put us off. Most were quite easy. We found 22 and DNF 2. TFTseries
We called it a day after this one will go home and start to work out for the final and we will be back to finish off. we had a great walk around today Thanks JacobsCrew2
We set out after a 3 hour ride around the Kalamunda tracks to find a couple of these. Quick find SL TFTC
Out today as a solo act to do the final part of the Outback Jack series.There was a variety of caches out there. Some were easy find but some were difficult.We ended up with 6 finds and 0 DNFs which was great.I had to rely on some selfies of J+J45 to keep me going. Loved this awesome series

I had the day off work and thought that this was the perfect day and a great opportunity to tackle this impressive power trail of caches. I arrived just before 6:30am and found that it was still quite dark but after finding the trail off Fern Rd I was on my way. Most caches were easy finds, but I found them much harder as I was working into the 30s of this series. Quick find here. TFTC JacobsCrew
[:(!] Had a few hours to kill and what better way of of filling in those hours than to do a bit of caching and this was one of them, parked the geocar as close as possible to GC54M48 - (Outback Jack Bush Walk 18) and walked the circuit from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was located and it was in hand in a matter of minutes.
I like it

I'd wanted to do a bit of a walk this weekend and was tossing up between this series and going gnome hunting. A late invite to a birthday lunch in Kalamunda decided me on this series. I got to the camel farm just after 7 and it was already heaving with mtb'ers. After getting my self sorted I set off and made quick progress on the first few caches. Once I got to the fourth I noticed the info at the beginning of the logbook required to find the final cache. I'd completely forgotten about the final and gathering the info. Thankfully the route I'd planned backtracked towards the ones I'd already done so I decided to pick up the missed info later. All went well with all caches easily found apart from #35. A nice mix of straight forward caches and a few more challenging hides. A great mornings walking, the whole series, not including the final, took just over 3 hours and this included the bit of backtracking i had to do. The weather was great, not to cool and only a few showers. Once I got back to my car i sat down and worked out the location of the final, wasn't sure about the location so re-worked the coords, all good so set off to find the final. Found it with enough time to get home get cleaned up and head out to lunch. Thanks for a great series JacobsCrew2.
Since this series was published, i have been waiting for the right time to give it a go. Today was the day. The 13yo geoson and I had a great walk. Loved the different containers and hide locations. Great fun bushbashing, and following the tracks.
Thanks for all the effort you have put into the series JacobsCrew
