#73 Hotham Valley Rail Trail Dwellingup, Western Australia, Australia
By jasenjanine on 19-Jul-14. Waypoint GC570DD

Thanks to all that have found our Hotham Valley Caches... Cheers!

Solved this series soon after they came out and it has taken me all this time to seek them out. After finding some of the nearby puzzle series I had some hours of daylight left to try for the Eastern end of the Trail. Most of the caches were quick finds, helped by the nice hints whenever I got a bit stuck. And they were all in good order, despite the recent rains.
It was an enjoyable adventure through the forest, giving my new geomobile a good work out.
Thanks for the puzzle and the cache jasenjanine.

Today's exciting installment of "If goes HVRT Surveying", featured a bicycle ride along the rail side trail.
Recently muddied up a bit from the rains of the last week
So a few puddles were encountered along the way.

A peaceful and really enjoyable ride from Dwellingup to Etmilyn today
And return.
All caches found ... not a DNF in sight [^]

Well almost not a DNF in sight, or should that be not in sight ??
#89 got me and got me good !!

Thanks for the caches and some great exercise today

Out for a day of caching with NewBut and Cachestro. Thought we'd tackle the Choo Choo series and a few others before camping at Nanga.



TFTC jasenjanine.

jasenjanine, I found your cache #73 Hotham Valley Rail Trail on 21/04/2016 at 10:13 AM.
This is my find #452 and find #12 today.

Thoroughly enjoyed this series.
Dwellingup is a lovely place to visit without the added bonus of caching and camping with mates.
Found with Goorjus and Cachestro.
Cache was in good condition.

While visiting our daughter and her family in Perth, we took the opportunity to catch up with jasenjanine and what better way to do that then by doing their Hotham Valley Rail Trail series We were pleased to have been able to do part of the first half of the series in their company and spending the afternoon with them

Luckily for us we found the track to be nice and dry and well graded for most of the way with only a few places where our paranoia got the better of us when we thought we might put a scratch on our son-in-law's car All was good though and we got through it all unscathed

Thank you jasenjanine for having placed the terrific cache series and maintaining them all for everyone to enjoy

Out on the road today with Loudy16 to grab as many as we can. Decided the Procrastination Installation and Choo Choo series would fit the bill.

TFTC jasenjanine.

jasenjanine, I found your cache #73 Hotham Valley Rail Trail on 8/01/2016 at 3:23 PM. This is my find #2172 and #125 today.

headed out today with KrabiBoy to ball over a couple of series we have had our eye now for a while jasenjanine, I found your cache #73 Hotham Valley Rail Trail on 8/01/2016 at 3:24 pm. This is my find #1061 and #124 today.

Went back today to finish off the Choo choo series and we knocked the last missing 42 out in 3,5 hours so really happy. Were a bit worried that we might not find the final as the previous cacher struggled with it but after a little bit of searching we found it. Thanks for this great series and the fun 4Wdriving. Tftc sl tnln

My brother and sister in law (Jackylegs44) invited me up to Mandurah to go geocaching with them on a 4WD trail. Sure thing love 4Wdriving. Signed the first half of the trail under Jackylegs44 but now have set up my own account and will get a gps as well. Thanks for a great trail and introducing me to a fantastic hobby!

I always look forward to the chance to find some more of the Hotham Valley Rail Trail caches when I come to Dwellingup. Today we had a mountain bike race, and afterwards we came into town for dinner, so we parked the car at the cafe and walked out to find some caches.

This was the last one for the afternoon for me, and it was a quick find here. The firefighters were doing a control burn just over the other side of the train line, but it was very small, as there are houses over there too.

Thanks for the cache jasenjanine!

We had set this weekend aside to attempt the Choo Choo Series, hoping for cool weather before the heat of summer set in.
Found a neat camp spot on the way up from Busselton then got to Dwellingup fairly early this morning after a beautiful sunrise.
We hit the track full steam ahead and made it through with some interesting finds along the way.
We had a few laughs with Geosmurfs as we followed the trail, no creepy crawlies and no slithery surprises anywhere to be found, thankfully.
Thanks for the series. TFTC

Had a very warm day caching with Pood. Off to a reasonably early start. Choo Choo what a mission that was. Cheers

The hum of insects incessant. Last of the skull tazos dropped into cache. TFTC.

Tftc Cheers

The puzzles were solved in switzerland. and we found the caches here, thanks for this tour.

After finding more than half of the caches in this series to the east of Dwellingup, today we went west. It was another lovely day and we walked the whole lot and enjoyed it. Unfortunately we did not have all the information required to find the series final. Never mind that - a great series and a great day in the outdoors. TFTC

With an hour or so to spare thought we'd jump in the car and try to finish off a few more of this series. Arrived in Dwellingup to find people everywhere and a lot of roads closed due to a mountain biking event in the area. Luckily we had already completed the caches where the roads were closed and were able to grab a few. The track between #67 & #68 is blocked by a fallen tree but fortunately we were able to back track, cross the rail line and then cross back to the track further up. Thanks for another fun couple of hours Jasenjanine we are really enjoying this series!

What a great series. Lots of caches and puzzles in the bush with some wonderful sights. We did over half of the series in a 'not quite' 4WD. We had to turn around at one point only 10m from the main road and go all the back to another exit. Skipped quite a few on the last leg. There were lots of branches scraping the car on the tight roads. Lots of mud. All up. Excellent with great finds, great clues and accurate GPS.

Only one that we didn't find in Dwellingup. We skipped sections due to the muddy rough roads. We missed #1 due to a muggle parked at that spot. Was going to do it on the way back but forgot.

TFTC Series jasenjanine. Cut and paste from here on.

Had a go at the series today and we really enjoyed the outing. I signed the log while the geokid took care of the swap. Thanks to Janine and Jasen for putting in this wonderful series.

Found it !!
thanks jasenjanine!

Late on logging as work is so busy currently however much the same as to barnzy12. The new car was not so new after this series however I will be back to complete

3 bases in a row....on our way to the home run!

Finishing the series today with Peeted, actually think we found this one yesterday, but wiped out last night logging them. Grazie .

TFTC! teamed up with Cravo10 to complete another section of the CHOO CHOO trail after our failed attempt on the bike previously. Cravo had recently acquired a lovely 4wd which made much lighter work of the trail than the bikes. All caches were found quite quickly in logical spots, and we're all in very good condition, a testament the the owners JnJ. Thanks

Doing the ChooChoo series with Happyjacks55 and this was our last find for the day. Back tomorrow to finish off. TFTC

Originally logged under family name clan-wallace now relogging under new caching name pommieparkin2

Set out early with the aim of doing another 25 on the Hotham Valley Rail Trail. It started off chilly but turned into a warm dry day, just perfect for our quest. We had a bit of unexpected trouble with the first few as although I had checked all the coordinates again before we set out & adjusted just 1 they all seemed to need to be refreshed again before they would play ball & the signal was a bit iffy. So as soon as I got a good signal I refreshed the lot & we were all good to go! Ended up doing #42 - 75 with a stop for refreshments in Dwellingup. No DNFs, a thoroughly enjoyable day.Thanks to jasenjanine.

Day 2 of the Anzac Day long weekend and reaching #100 is the goal. Found the first 'Choo' last year with Nosky in his 4WD. Back this year by myself and this time on foot. Thanks for the series. Had a ball.

out with Granett, Megawatt60 and M4yb today to belt out this whole series in a day, we had perfect weather all day and took our time and had a really enjoyable day and alot of laughs and a great effort putting them all out, we found all 100 and no dnf's so we are so happy thanks for the series.

Well the run had started with Helbren in the lead, then us followed by Granett. 2 mile stones were on the hunt today, one for Granett - his 300 for the month and 2000 finds for Helbren and I think m4yb and me will reach a BP for finds in one day. 103 finds I think, will get confirmation after all the logging, and not one DNF, Awesome!

Thanks for the series jasenjanine.

Another cache in hand on the epic Rail Trail day, with Helbren, Granett and megawat60!
So sorry about the generic log, it has been a long day since 4 am and I have no recollection of who found what, so glad that Granett kept a record.....
Must say that Helbren made a lot of the finds, and a lot of times without a phone, just by intuition!
TFTC jasenjanine!

The plan today was to finish off the last 70 odd ChooChoo's that I had left to aid my quest to find 300 caches for the month of March. Teamed up with M4YB, megawat60 and the hard running Helbren for a funfilled few hours of 4WDing and caching.

Started out at number 27 around 7:30am and we were signing the log book at the final at 1:00pm. All the caches were found without too much trouble except for the final where we had a slight miscalculation of the coordinates.

A big thanks to jasenjanine for putting out this trully amazing series. It is a supreme effort from the geoart to all of the 100 hides. Looking forward to your next creation.

Individual comments below.......

I was the one to find this one a short after arriving at GZ.

SLTFTC

The better half was going to see her sister who was in the city so as I was being left alone I decided to go for a drive and complete this series which I had started some time ago.

Only had a DNF on two of them. The rest were found without problems.

Thanks jasenjanine for this cache and the rest of the series.

TFTC from the Bibbulmun Track maintenance volunteer.

Together with my girlfriend we went to Dwellingup to get a few caches of this PT. Very nice area and a good path to follow. We saw some Emus crossing our way - fantastic - and the train too.
Thanks for this PT!
TFTC

Found at 2:39:00 PM.

Today rudi63 and I hit the hills of Dwellingup to have a crack at this series. I had eyed this off ever since it was published, but work commitments meant that I could not attempt them until much later than I wanted to. [xx(]

That being said, I solved all of them with relative ease, the hard bit was my fat fingers when I was entering the data into GSAK. I only got one wrong.....

While out on the trail today in my 4wd, I can happily say that we managed to navigate to all of the cahes with relative ease. There was one place that was a bit dodgy, [B)] but I think that was my inexperience [:o)] with this style of driving as Rudi was quite comfortable with what was going on. [8)]

We had a lot of fun with the searches. Most finds were relatively easy, but a couple had us scratchign our heads for a while, but that was mainly due to the tree coverage playing havoc with the GPSr reception. We pretty much shared the actual number of times that we said "got it", with each of us going through a streak at different stages.

Overall I had a fantastic day with lots of finds, I can't think of which caches to give a favourite to so unfortunately it will probably only be the final one, sorry

Thanks for the cache jasenjanine

Cheers

After a long absence from caching for various reasons, today was the day where I got to go out for the day, and as it turned out it proved to be a very successful day.

Mr. Wileyclan rang and suggested we attempt the CHOO CHOO (Hotham Valley Rail Way) power trail; armed with the Nissan XTrail, lots of water and a determination to complete this series in a day, off we went.

We found that all of the caches were within less than 10 metres from the posted co ordinates, and the hints were helpful, once you got to the correct location.

Thanks for the cache [^][:o)]

This is cache 78 of 106 for today

This is my find number 3096

What started out as a day of exercise for Bindi the 12year old black pooch turned into a premium membership by the end of the trail.

Caching with my nephew and his wife (Usshfam) for the first time - and instigated by visitor V-ixen.

Caching was much like gold prospecting except we were using coordinates and not metal detectors.

So after two years and a couple of good finds we have switched to geocaching. It gets you out and about in the open air and is good exercise for Bindi who was an inheritance from a 92 year old neighbor.

Bindi used to be terribly over weight and with the correct diet, medication for her thyroid and exercise has already lost 7kg.

Doing 98 caches in one day was a challenge for her and us - but very rewarding! The cachemobile's name is Kermit as in the frog and will soon travel to many more caches.

TFTC. TN. LN. SL.

Find # 77. Find # 73 of 98 for the day.

This was our first full day of geocaching - We had just joined up the night before as premium members as my mother (Vixen) had come from South Africa on holiday and asked us to join her. So we were thrown into the deep end so to speak.

It was a fun day had by all, even myself who was bitten by a spider on my leg at one of "the fallen log ones" (keep your trousers rolled down at ALL times. I rolled mine up to cool off at our lunch stop and forgot to roll them back down.

It was 10hrs of solid geocaching. In one day we learnt all the different sizes of caches.... Micro, small & regular. We thoroughly enjoyed our day hopping in and out the car seeing who could find it first (even our 3 year old son found some before we did).

The cache that was next to the Hotham train was the most mind boggling it took us by surprise. Our team of 3 groups were all on the prowl.... (Usshfam, Vixen & Bindi)......

Pack lots & lots of water, especially if you are doing it on a hot day as well as some trackables if you have kids with you... A 4x4 is a must.

The only one we could not find out of the 99 was #89.... But it did not put a dampener on our spirits. We made note of all the clues but did not have time to solve.
So we toasted with a nice cold beer and headed home.

We have now figured out the final (thanks to TechnoNut) and will make a date to go and sign and say a toast to the logs of the 100th find.

Thanks for the day of fun on the trail!! And thanks to TechnoNut for solving the series!

TFTC. TN. LN. SL.

Find # 213. Find # 73 of 98 for the day.

This amazing cache series was spotted before I left South Africa to holiday in Perth. TechnoNut had a busy time solving 99 puzzles. And then loading them on the Oregon for me.

I hosted an event the eve before to exchange TB's with fellow cachers in Perth and during the event Fairways Drivers gave me a few pointers for the Big Day ahead.

We were all packed and ready to go by 5am. A good hour and a half drive (checked my caching bag a 100 times over to make sure I had my GPS - a bit like checking your passport when traveling abroad). Heaps of frozen water, food for a week and a heart skipping a beat knowing the challenge ahead.

I am just past the newbie stage and now I'm guiding newer newbies - a muggle and K9 Bindi on a power trail of 100 caches. Gosh talk about pressure.

The first find was around 7. 30am. Took a little while as we were over-thinking the hide but once found high fives all round and the adventure was on the road

Soon discovered a 4x4 was a must to do these caches. The guys had their moments of fun getting in and out of situations and assisting a fellow cacher out of a difficult situation. Not accustomed to the Oz bush, I had a moment or two but spirits were kept high as we took time out to enjoy the scenery around along the trail. I saw my first Monitor and Bobtail which was a real pleasure.

Thanks for placing this series - it gave all of us on the trail a day of fun in the bush! A new caching team Usshfam and then Muggle with K9 Bindi to want to be future cacher thanks to TechnoNut for solving the puzzles and being our support this end. Plans are being made to head for the magic 100 find on new years day and what better way to celebrate the new caching year of 2015 with the ultimate prize.

We are having a great day caching with jacaro44. 4 pairs of eyes helped us to be able to finish the whole series today. TFTC

We teamed with FairwayDrivers to tackle the Choo Choo series on Wednesday. Picked FWD's up at 6.30am and had our first smiley around 8.00am. We made good progress until #60 where we bogged down for a while walking in circles. A vote confirmed that what we required was sustanance so a lunch break was undertaken to recharge the energy packs. We returned to #60 where, after another 10 minutes searching Mr FWD's made the find. Nastey little nano!!.So again with high spirits it was off again gaining smileys along the way. At #74 the GPS took us to a recently burnt stump but no cache was found. Our only DNF for the day. Having eventually found all the clues for #100 we back tracked but could get no cleser than about 150m in the vehicle. It was time for some serious leg work. Great views of the forest from GZ and a lovely big cache to welcome us. We all had a great day and were back home around 6.00pm.
Jasenjanine, you have excelled yourselves establishing this series. The coordinates were bang on and the track -- interesting. All caches in good condition (except maybe #74) Apologies for the generic log.
Thanks for a great days outing and fav from us for # 1, #60 and #100

I have always loved Holyoake it holds a special place in my family history so I always enjoy coming up here for a visit.[^]

With caches within the immediate area it didn't take long to be on the move again trying to locate as many as we could before days end.

TFTC. jasenjanine

After enjoying the day caching with IQO we decided to do a little sight seeing and went for a drive to Holyoake. Of course on the way we happened across a rail crossing and what do you do when you cross the tracks [?] go find more of the Choo Choo

Thanks Jasenjanine for a great series and the effort you have put in to set this up

Geodad promised me to do the CHOO CHOO series one weekend and this was the one. Started on Friday night and got #59-#41(DNF# 53) then we called it a night. Got #1 at 7am then to #28 ,as we headed back to the campsite. Then we got #29-#41 and picked up #53 on the way out and back to Dwellingup. #60 was the best of them all, so we went all the way from #60-#99 then to the final. The weather held off so it was an easy adventure. Most co-ords were good. It was great scenery and many memories were well spent here. No one else would see this awesome scenery if they didn’t geocache here .Sorry for all the generic logs
TFTC and the great series jasenjanine

Teamed up with ~Tango~ to do this series.

Having just read his logs, I think he described our adventure most eloquently. Nothing more for me to add, except that I thoroughly enjoyed the journey.

Sorry about he generic logs, but I do appreciate all the effort that went into getting this series out there, not to mention the ongoing maintenance.

Well done and thankyou jasenjanine.

Mistraluna and I had a wonderful day out doing this fun trail. Not only a chance to grab a cache or hundred but also to do lots of exploring of the railway's history, check out some good wildflowers and of course experience the best of the river with plenty of water flowing over falls and rapids. The orchids were still good even though it's late in the season. Plenty of birds serenading and displaying. The rail infrastructure and locos and rolling stock kept this little boy very happy. Not too sure that Mistraluna shared my enthusiasm when I got lyrical after spotting an S class. Great views along the way. Plus the weather could not have been better. Spring is ideal for this adventure.

The track was good. A bit wet but no real problems with the 4WD. Good excuse for other teams to team up and share a 4WD experience. Our only disappointment - the apple place had finished its season and we were too early for the berries.

Have left the caches to last, but of course the caches are there to get you out experiencing all these amazing bits of history, scenery and nature. We found and signed each and every one. As good a variety as is possible over so many hides. Loved the tricky little mongrel which seemed to have a few less signatures in it than others. There was great rejoicing every time we found "a big one". And because we found all the big ones, we were able to enjoy that final hide - a great spot there.

Thanks jasenjanine for all your work and I hope that everyone who gets out to do it has as much fun as we did. You have found a wonderful area to share with us all.

After seeing this series published I just couldn't wait to get in and cross it off my list. So at the Let's get Jaded Event a few of us got talking about doing the series in a small group. A facebook event was created and long story short we ended up with 4 teams meeting up at the Pinjarra Bakery a few weeks later.

Teams Granett, tmrwtt, Luna Maya & myself all headed off in the 4WD's eager to get started and we weren't disappointed, what a great series!!

Most caches were easy to find, some a little more challanging and as the day wore on, and our energy levels were slowly dispersing the hints came in handy. The variety of containers and hiding locations also kept it interesting.

A huge thank you to Jasenjanine for a wonderful series and to the teams who I got to complete this series with. It was a memorable day and my first time to ever to the the 100 finds in 1 day, plus the couple of other caches we grabed along the way.

The much waited for " The Choo Choo Express " facebook event finally arrived. Four teams participated - tmrwtt, Ladyjet86, Granett and ourselves. What an " awesome " day it was Great location, fun and eventful 4x4 driving, trains and excellent hides.The weather was sunny and fine so perfect. The wildflowers were in bloom - beautiful We managed to find every hide and really appreciated the hints later on in the day as energy levels faded The caches were all found in good condition. The variety of containers was good to keep us challenged. Logbook signed and off to the next one
Thanks for a great adventure and series Jasenjanine !!!
Also thanks to our geo-companions and families for your much appreciated company
* I will add variations to cut and paste logs in an asterix *

* This was the hide near the infamous fallen tree, easy to drive around it *

Found this one whilst on a trip with others to grab all in one day. What a mammoth effort!! Thanks jasenjanine

Headed down here with the Italian Geo-Stallion to tackle the series and boost our numbers, found all but one, it eluded us well. SL TFTH

Out on a quest with TeamRoc

TFTC

We returned to Dwellingup late Saturday (06/09) evening - dinner and rugby at the pub followed by camping overnight at our usual spot before heading out Sunday (07/09) morning to finish the trail
A very enjoyable day with plenty of sun and rain to keep thing fun.
Hmmm bee stings - round 1 saw geochild get one and round 2 saw the geohubby get one... here is hoping that round 3 does NOT see me get one when we return to go for a train ride and to do the final!
Thanks for the series JnJ

Perfect day spent in Dwellingup watching the train and picking up the second half of the cache series.
Thankfully no issues with rail staff like someone else had today.
Great series. Thanks

Back in the Hotham Valley to finish off the Rail Trail series.
This time we took the geo-bikes to the end to the Plavins Pit and parked the car right next to #60 at the carriage. Then walked the roughly 12km along the tracks to the final and back to the bikes through the forest to finally ride the push-bikes to the town.
Most of the caches were pretty straight forward with not much scratching around to find.
Thanks again for all the efforts you put in this great series.

We had spied this series off for a short while now and Oo-yeh and I finally had a day that we both could get out.
Started off at # at 5.40am and got to the final at 2.23pm.
Along the way we grabbed a couple of nearby caches but it was the rain that slowed us down.
It absolutely bucketed down and mid way through, we just said "bugger it, we cant get any wetter"
We stopped a few times to let the stongest downpours pass us but most of the time we just "toughened up" and got soaked.
This is a magnificent series, Co-ords were spot on and the location itself is beautiful.
I would not have known this track existed otherwise.
Thanks for the series Jasenjanine and the company today Ooh-Yeh

I was overseas when this mystery series came out and I was cursing the CO,s ......... I then put a plan together , I called KYZABRA to see if he could wrangle a day off so today was the day and I was determined not to let a little rain put us off ...........PS did I say a little well that was a understatement as it bucket it down and the track was looking like a mini river the jeep managed to push through with ease and engaging 4x4 in some areas ...... Loved the day out with great company the caches were spot on with the coord's
Thanks Jasenjanine for the great adventure

Teamed up with Iluvtrekking and Richlinks to tackle this great series, It was a beautiful day with mild weather and sunshine, Started about 9am and made our way through this fantastic series with various different hides, some were easy while a small handle prove to be more challenging.. We manage to find them all plus the final. Plus I had my best caching day , picking up 127 finds in one day. TFTC and this amazing series.

One word to describe the experience - Awesome. Awesome series, scenery, company and weather.
Jasenjanine you have done an amazing job putting this series together and we truly appreciate your efforts. Located all the containers with little problem - including #60. The track between #1 - 50 was the most challenging with a few ruts and large puddles but nothing a competent 4wd'er couldn't negotiate with a little care. #61 - 99 was a pretty good track and the only obstacle being the tree across the track at #73. Having a 4wd no problem crossing the rail track to get around it. Absolutely amazing day in the company of iluvtrekking and JacobsCrew - the boys revelled in the drive and as usual if they could make the car muddier, then they did! Thanks jasenjanine.

We completed the Hotham Valley Rail Trail with richlink and Jacobscrew on a beautiful spring-like day.

The first half of the trail had some rough sections and some decent sized puddles to negotiate while the second half of the trail was relatively smooth sailing. The track was blocked by a fallen tree between #73 & #74 forcing us to drive across the rail track to get around it.

All caches were found in good order. Some quickly, others not so quickly and we had to widen our search area to find them. Our favorite was #60 - you out did yourselves here.

All in all a fantastic feat, thanks jasenjanine, we had a day we will not forget.

Well well well......... I am so happy by not only working out how to solve the puzzles but by also completing all 99 of them in 1 day.

Managed to talk hubby into taking me as I wasn't keen on attempting the track on my own after reading about people being bogged.

The track today, overall, wasn't too bad with probably only 1 or 2 major boggy bits and 2 or 3 badly eroded areas. Lucky for me hubby is pretty good with the 4wd and we managed to follow the track all the way. I guess we were lucky as it hadn't rained for a few days so had dried up a bit.

Jason & Janine, you have done a fantastic job with the placing of this series, co-ords were great, fantastic variety of caches and a fun day out was had by myself, hubby and our dog Evie, who ran along the track in front of the car with the biggest smile on her face. So a HUGE congratulations on a job well done

Most of the caches I was third or fourth to find and on two or three of them, I was second to find!

Majority of the caches are pretty easy to find due to the great co-ords with a few tricky ones thrown in to keep you guessing

Today seemed as good as any to look for the caches in this series from Dwellingup to Etmilyn on the mountain bike , found all except one , most were quick finds with a couple needing me to remove the GPSr from the handlebar holder
Thanks jasenjanine for this part of the series, hopefully I'll be back for the ones west of Dwellingup next week

Thanks and well done jasenjanine you have truly outdone yourselves with this trail of caches. I found all of the coordinates to be very good (no more than 2-3 metres in most instances) although a couple of the finds took me a little longer than the others

I had an RDO today and decided to have a crack at this series on my mountain bike. I set off from home nice and early (4.50am) and parked near number 1, the first dozen or so were found by torchlight The track was a bit wet in places but once the sun came up I was able to negotiate it with a bit more ease and confidence and my pace increased. I managed to grab them all, it took me 6 and a half hours from starting to grabbing the final.

Yay my second FTF ever! Forgot to log this earlier sorry, but I couldn't remember which number we had started at!

We have found our way around this tree from both directions & managed our way around in 4X4 on several occasions... Please drive with care & use extreme caution at all times!

Mikirst found this just before I had seen it. Glad didn't drive up here or we b stopping here cause no way over that fallen tree. Tftc

Find 30 of 40. Mr. and Mrs. O. set out to do as many of the series from #99 back to #61 as we could in 3 hours by bike, and made it with time to pick up #60 and have coffee at the Blue Wren. 37 FTFs and 3 3TF's with no DNF's, and a really enjoyable bike ride of about 19km through this majestic and tranquil forest. Most finds were made in quick time, with honourable mentions to the special ones - the mint tin, rock wall and camo nano all were fun hides. Huge thanks to jasenjanine for putting out such a massive series.
