Really enjoyed this series! It was a cold wet day so really had the road to ourselves, all the caches were in good condition, thanks jlotsos

Lovely day out for a drive, to pick up a couple of caches. Been stuck inside most of the week. With all this crappie weather. Same the fire has been through here, some caches are missing. Tftc

Nice little series. There's been a bit of fire damage through here. I only managed to find 5 out of ten. Tftc.

Nice easy find. TFTH

#12812. Day 14 of our WA holiday and our 9th day based in Rockingham. Robmc and I decided to drive back through Jarrahdale today and visit some of the Bushranger Series, the Chandler Series, the Dam Road Series and a few others along the way. Managed to find 46 today with a few DNF's thrown in.

Our second find on this pleasant road and we continued on.

Thanks jlotsos

Day Fourteen of our holiday in Western Oz.
Bettyboo3747 and I went out east to check out some Bushrangers, the Chandler and The Dam Road series, and a few on the way home.
A lovely sunny day, not too hot, not too cold, just perfect for caching.

Racing along with these! SNAP with the first one!
Thanks, Robmc.

Yay found th 2nd tftc

Good hiding place. Log is nice and dry

**Found this while House Sitting in Bedfordale**

*Out and about letting my GPS be my guide*...

What a beautiful area for a drive through here. A pity that so many bogans decide to use this whole area as a rubbish dump.

A quick park and grab here today. Found cache, stamped and returned as found.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache for our enjoyment jlotsos. Appreciate your effort.

A neat little find so quiet

Just stumbled across this series on the way home, so it was meant to be! We had done all of the ones on the other side of the road on the way to the Dam & so now we are tackling this side on the way down. Found them all, so thanks very much for our unplanned excursion & the caches jlotsos

No problems....a quick find on out way back home for the night.

Fantastic day to be out driving around the hills. The bush is looking inviting, which it doesn't in summer for us, so thoroughly enjoyed these quick finds. TFTC, jlotsos.

Found it. TFTC jlotsos

Out for a few early Australia Day Caches and to beat the heat a few drive and grab caches became the order for the day.. Cheers... TFTC

Quick find. TFTH

Decided to target a couple of jlotsos series today and The Dam Road was first up. Great little series and we managed to find 9 of the 10 of them.

TFTC jlotsos this is find # 1421 for us

Found The Dam Road 2. TNLN SL TFTH jlotsos.

Great cache! Geokid thought she hit the jackpot when she found a miniature pony in there. Took pony & left a little mouse. TFTC

With the day off work I set off with grand plans grabbing the kanadian bash series. But with the forecast of rain, hail and thunder thought it was best to stick with the car for some park and grabs.

So a revised plan to tackle the Dam and Chandler road series was hatched with a couple of bush rangers thrown in for good measure.

All in all a productive day with 24 smiles 2 dnf and 1 abort mission due to muggle activity

Thanks for a great day jlotsos

Just found the dam road 1 and number two was the next target. So of I trotted thru the bush and 400 metres later I had The Dam Road 2 in my hands. Big mistake as some where between Dam Road 1 and Dam Road 2 I lost my phone. Luckily my GPS keeps a track log but with time against me I will have to retrace my steps when I fly in from work again. Final score was two caches and one lost phone.

TFTC. Took Bottlelo TB

Got it

Took nothing, left nothing. Thanks for the cache.

I've been looking at this series for a while, and today was the perfect day. After completing the Boulderdash series I needed some easy driving caches and this fit the bill just right. I was pleased to find good sized containers that allowed me to drop a TB into each one!

I had fairly easy finds at most of them, with a couple of tricky little ones along the way. The hints were well appreciated and used in times of need.

Thanks for the cache jlotsos!

Dam Road 2, check! There a few cyclists on the road here today, will have to use our best stealth! TFTC

Another helpful hint and I had the cache in my hands before I even got to GZ. TFTC jlotsos

Completed this great little series on our way through the hills to Perth. Enjoyed these bush caches very much. There was enough variety to keep us interested, and for the most part they were easy to locate. Some were very sneaky!! Appreciated the parking spots, as the road verges and road are very narrow. Thanks for the series jlotsos. Did not take too long and was fun.

We drove a long way south to explore the dam today. Weather was fantastic and, other than a few rev heads, the road was quiet. A couple of caches were between 10 and 20m from where my GPSr pointed and the rest were quick finds. The large cache took the longest time to locate which seemed ironic. We enjoyed the variety of sizes and hides. We appreciated the sensible locations of hides; there was only 1 location that we found it difficult to find safe parking. It would be great to see some more water in the dam; situation looking bleak at the moment. Thanks for a fun hour or so on this road jlotsos.

tftc jlotsos quick easy find. great hiding places on all of them and great surroundings.

Easy find. Great day to be out. TFTC

Out and about with RAPIDASH today to collect some smilies along Dam Road.

Found while caching with Me&B for the morning and enjoying the scenery. TFTH

Found with Lound16 & Goorjus69

Out with goorjus69 and newbut today picking up a couple of caches today good find TFTC

Saturday caching in the hills around the Canning Reservoir. The Dam Road series was the main reason I came this way and it was a good choice. All caches were in good condition and fortunately it was easy to park at each hide.
Quick find again, TFTH.

A lovely day to be out and about caching. We travelled the length of The Dam Road, doing those on the left on the way up and those on the right on the way down. There was a good variety of caches and all were found without too much searching involved - and no DNFs.
Thanks for this cache and for the series jlotsos.

With the wife and daughter away at school camp and me up earlier than usual to drop off the lad at school, I decided to make the most of the week of annual leave I’m on and get some finds in on as many days as I can.

This little series that hit my radar after the CO mentioned in the WA Geocaching Facebook group yesterday, it seemed like a good way to start my week of hunting.

The weather today was perfect and I made fairly quick finds with all the hides apart from one, but some corrected cords along with jlotsos handy hints they place on all their hides made for an enjoyable morning with only 2 cars passing the whole time.

Thanks jlotsos for this series, a good mix of hides and placements kept me guessing.

Another quick find, stopped to finish my coffee and enjoy the sounds of the bush, so peaceful out here today.

After completing the Chandler series and working our way back towards Armadale, we couldn't not take the detour and come and have a go at this series too. Most were found without too much difficulty, either with finding good safe places to pull off of the road, or with finding the caches. Thanks for this one jlotsos

Thoroughly enjoyed this little series on our way home from Araluen on Fathers Day. Lovely hides and containers thanks for the fun

Nice

A quick find while trying out my scooter rig. Geospouse is in the UK and has been racking up caches so I thought I should catch up. Tftc

Quick find. TFTC!

Decided to meander my way down the road to the dam without realising how many caches were along here! Nice series!

Gotcha. With thanks for the cache from Angus the great GeoWestie and his Carer wo are grey (and white) nomads currently travelling in, and enjoying, WA.

1st for day. Will do the series gradually t4tc

Number 3 for the day and number two of the series for us today

Number 3 for the day and number two of the series for us today

Quick find with new team icsomething

Dropped the geo-muggle-missus off at her friend's place for the afternoon and went caching. After hunting down a couple of frogs, clearing up some Boulderdash DNFs and grabbing a couple of archived Mischief's Crew caches, I hit the Dam Road.

Number two was a quick find also and starting to think I know what to expect along the Dam Road .

Signed the log. Thanks for the hide jlotsos

2nd one down!
Loving the scenic drive

(chwiliwr team catch up log)

Was doing a run of caches up this way so we called in to find this cache along the way.

A quick find here.

Thanks jlotsos for the cache.

Thanks for a great series of caches jlotsos Made for a great afternoon in the bush

After the Mothers Day gift giving was over, I must have been getting in Mrs jinta's way cause she told me to go caching . Well... who am I to start an argument? I quickly packed some supplies into the geo Corolla and headed out the door. Thanks for placing these caches jlotsos. Some of the coords were a bit out but the previous logs identify the likely GZ's.

Another quick find here, on a roll now

Decided to spend a pleasant afternoon caching and complete this series. TFTC

Nice stamp inside - kids loved it.

Tftf. Makes for an enjoyable family Sunday drive

TFTC

Headed out to the Canning Dam with the kids for a BBQ lunch & of course had to stop & find some caches along the way

Another quick find here, this time for Master 3 as I sent him to have a look at the obvious spot!

TFTC jlotsos

Have noticed we missed the royalty of geocaching by a few hours...

5 year old nephew keeps beating us

No problem for 5 year old

The mission today was to pick up a nearby high D/T rated cache to fill a spot in my grid (Jurassic Jaunt!!, GCKDC6). After a successful outing there it was a trip along the Canning Dam rd to see if I could knock off all the recently published 'Dam Road' caches.

I would be doing them in reverse order which made for some creative parking maneuvers from time to time. Some of the co-ords seemed out a bit and I took some readings where applicable but I got them all and there were a couple of crafty hides here and there as well. Thanks for putting the series out jlotsos.

Didnt need the hint here, co-ords were spot on and found in the obvious spot.

Met up with iluvtrekking and JacobsCrew2 to grab a few caches and attend the Cito event in Kelmscott.
This is a nice series and amazing change in vegetation between first and last cache. Thanks jlotsos

Met up with Richlinks, iluvtrekking and Branzy12 for a great day of caching. the weather is prefect with mild conditions.....found most caches quickly with the odd tricky one...TFTC

Set off early this morning with richlink to link in with JacobsCrew2 and Barnzy12 and do our bit at the Kelmscott CITO Event. This was one of many caches found while in the area. Always a sucker for a series this one did not disappoint. Thanks jlotsos.
