JackaKid's Geocache 37 - Whittle VC Sutton, Australian Capital Territory, Australia
By JackaKid on 21-Jun-15. Waypoint GC5Y77X

Last find for this cache as Champs2Monkeys and I collected them this morning as we laid a new trail. Thanks Jackakid for the caches and for archiving them to allow the Canberra Centenary Trail series to take its place. Angel.

Releasing the spot for another Geocache. Thank you to everyone who found my Geocaches.

35 out of 43 for today.

Having enjoyed a stroll along the CCT between Hall and Mulligans a few weeks ago, and seeing more are rapidly being published, it occurred to us to do the next bit between Mulligans and the Federal Hwy. So McPhan and I made another arrangement of a car at each end and walking the length.

The weather was kind, not too hot, and the forecast rain didn't eventuate, and each cache flowed into the next. We were finished before we knew it. Great company as always, and we'd often overshoot the next cache mid-conversation. World peace almost assured now. It turned out we found these JackaKid ones to the SE end just before they were archived, presumably to make room for more of the CCT ones.

Thanks JackaKid*none* for the series.

10140 and 35th of 42 found today.

After finishing off the chunk of CCT caches we had planned we came upon this series. Winglen and I had returned from a big trip to SA and decided to do a few more just to warm down. This weekend it was and so we gathered as many as we could.

The task was made a lot easier as the majority of mint tins were out in the open. There was only one that gave us problems because the cache had been replaced a long way from where the original was hidden - but all good in the end.

Thanks for the series and thanks for the suggestion and company Mr W.

Thanks for the cache JackaKid and the sand.

We're getting the hang of these now! Another junior find. Also enjoying learning about these brave men.

10:09am #7 of 19 today

I am using Geosphere Ap for the first time and clearly I need a bit of practice [:?] .
I am only using the Ap now for logging as I go (thought that was a great function but accidentally uploaded as Logs not personal notes)
Surprisingly this was the only one of this series where I found the log damp (I think it was this one, anyway) Quick find while heading North. Thanks for the cache JackaKid

The sixth find of the day. I had planned a big day of caching in Goorooyaroo to pick up the remaining Jackakid caches as well as a few other caches in the area. My goal was to find 31 caches and get my name in another cache. I was doing it on foot, starting at around 10 am and hoping to finish around 1. My first cache was The Zoo at the Goo! by specimenX and I managed to find the waypoints pretty quickly and then was off to GZ. From there, I headed off to Dwarf Clan Blacklocks where I found the cache quickly and then uphill to Burnt Stump Hill, where I found the cache while enjoying the views.

From there, I headed onwards to Dwarf Clan Firebeards and then onto the Jackakid powertrail. I found it each one pretty quickly before arriving at Challenge - 366 Consecutive Days where I signed the log in the hope of finally fulfilling the challenge requirement. After that, I headed uphill again and collected Dwarf Clan Stiffbeards and Dwarf Clan Broadbeams. After that, I was back on the Jackakid powertrail until the most northern cache in the series.

After knocking off most of the Jackakid series, I continued onward to Lightning Bolt Attractor. From there, I headed back toward Old Joe, collecting Slightly off the beaten track on the way. It was quite a climb up Old Joe hill, I guess that is reason why my marathon loving friend loves this hill! I headed down hill from there and then onto Zygon Inversion and Hunting for Treasure in the 'roo before finishing up with It burns after 2359, Dwarf Clan Longbeards and the remainder of the Jackakid series.

After finishing up in Goorooyaroo, my dad and I drove to Gungahlin Pond to collect the higher terrain caches and my second new D/T point for the day. I collected MisTREEvous first and then hit the lake to collect both Capital Paddle caches. It took a bit longer than I expected as the boat was quite slow. It was also tough trying to manoeuvre the boat into a good spot to collect Capital Paddle #1.

Thanks to all the cachers who hid caches that I found, it was an enjoyable day on the trails!

Another easy find on this neat little powertrail. TFTC!

Hot afternoon day with ALL7.

Happy New Year to all..... An easy find whilst out caching in the area with MW9010B. TFTC!

Always watching for things that slither! TFTC

Another quick find

went for a stroll up through Goorooyaroo while my DarzeeDi was in Melbourne for the Melbourne Event. The rain had gone for the day so it was great to be out again and I love this nature reserve. tftc JackaKid

Sunday 20 September 2015 - a glorious Spring day with a brilliant blue sky at 18 degrees between 10am and 2pm. Found 24 caches in 4 hours over 11.46 kms by bike riding, bush bashing, running and pushing a bike up steep hills over rocks and more rocks. Saw 3 Shingleback lizards, 2 Echindas, plenty of Roos, Humans on foot and on bikes. Great day thx Siri, P and T. Dropped off 2 trackables and picked up a Buddha trackable in some of the caches found today. TFTC.

Another one in the series in the bag so to speak TFTC.

The frogs were on song near here.

Good find with Mr 9

Not here, not there, but ahhhhh there!

Did a long walk today (didn't have a bike with me) to do some caches in this reserve. Being from far out of area I didn't know what to expect, but thoroughly enjoyed the area and the caches!

Nice day for a ride on the bike today. Out with MGROCKS. TFTC

4350. Found with Tanso on a lovely Friday afternoon stroll. No dramas with any today and glad he rain held off.
TFTC and the history lesson.

Made my way out this way today with Boot65, we had a lovely walk around today it was worth getting all my work done today. we did see lots of roo's out and about.
Thanks JackaKid

We loved our walk in the reserve today. It was also an opportunity to collect a few more of this series. This area is very beautiful and we also went up a couple of the nearby hills to admire the views of Canberra today.
Thanks for the history, the walk and all the caches

#3461 - 10:30; I completed another section in this series yesterday and decided that the time had come, weather permitting, to tackle this section of the trail and complete the series so far. I made an earlish start on a beautiful winter's day and headed out to the furthest of the unfound caches I was hoping to find today. After number one was sorted, it was a pleasant stroll back towards the geomobile collecting the remaining caches in the series along the way. TFTC JackaKid

Grabbed this on an afternoon walk in the Goo. Some nice locations.

Thanks

We came back today to complete the unfinished trail that came up after we thought we had concered this mountain, great weather presented for us. All the caches were in fine form and easily located, over all a great day. TFTC JackaKid

Such a glorious morning to be out and about ...
TFTC JackaKid

Brilliant day - stunning locale ... caching at its best!
Thanks, JackaKid!

The weather was very nice today so I had planned to go for a walk. The original plan was the Jackakid caches along the Goo however on arrival I was greeted by muggles galore, and most of them were ankle biters. Hmm ok Orienteering is happening here so I changed plans and went over to Mulligans Flat and collected those caches instead.

I had a very nice walk today, collecting a total of 32 caches and also finding 2 of the missing Jackakid caches and getting them back in play.

Thanks JackaKid for placing these caches, lovely area especially on a day like today.

After today's orienteering, based at the parking for this trail, I jumped on the bike to collect these caches. I skipped a few as there were still too many folk running around. Another quick find. TFTC.

After work I managed to get away soon enough to go for a solid walk. I made it all the way from Horsepark Drive to number 46 in this series and one more beyond. Only the two AWOL caches were missed and it is great to see them back in place. The return walk seem to go forever, bit it was a great evening in the reserve.

Thanks.

A Quick find

went out today looking g to get bout 20 or so caches to get a little closer to my next milestone weather was horrible but it made for some good laughs

Out on a soggy numbers run with Noikmeister and Takibi. Managed the series plus a few others in the area. A couple of missing ones but most found without incident.

Found at 2:06:00 PM with BatgirlandCo and Takibi

We were out for a day of caching to boost our numbers for an upcoming milestone. If you want the real VC experience you should do my puzzle cache "It's Bugden!"

A fun series on a flat walk, great to walk my new boots in, thank you for all the caches, we enjoyed the walk on a crisp Canberra day.

Tftc. Nice series

I kept starting these without finishing due to weather and culling timeouts. Today was to try again but alas a DNF along the way. Found this one without a problem.

All other caches were good.
TFTC JackaKid.

Out today to hit my next milestone of 1000, which was only 22 caches away. Seen some great views and some great cache locations. thanks for the cache. Left TB

After spending all morning in bed fighting off a migraine it was time for a walk in the fresh air. Being overcast it was ideal conditions.

Parked at the usual spot and met up with a familiar character Fitzy_1965 who we walked with a little while before parting ways.

A successful walk with only one DNF at 39 today.

TFTC's JackaKid we are enjoying your VC series.

A beautiful winters day and what better way to enjoy it than to go caching in Goorooyaroo.
We continued our walk enjoying the views as we collected the JackaKid's series.
TFTC

A lovely sunny day meant I was off for a geomission in the 'Goo to collect the VC series and a couple of others after that

Except for a DNF on a missing #39, the VC caches were nice easy finds on my wander through this lovely nature park

Thanks for more of the series, JackaKid

A nice gentle morning walk. TFTC

Found on a lovely morning at the end of the holidays. Our aim today was to finish off most of the other JackaKid caches. After getting the furthest cache in Goorooyaroo, we worked our way back to the car by getting the caches along the way. All of them were simple finds in lovely parts of the park. TFTC JackaKid!

Little by little I am getting stronger and more able to go longer distances. Today I took on 4 more of this series (middle distance). Thanks JackaKid

Spent the morning assisting RSPCA setting up at Pooch Affair at EPIC. Since I was now on the northside of Canberra decided to spend a few hours caching in Goorooyaroo Nature Reserve.TFTCs.

Had a free hour in the morning so managed to grab the first 7 of this series. Will return for the others very soon. TFTC and for the series JackaKid

#1061 1 of 9 today.

A quick lunchtime gc run on the bike today. I was a bit worried about the path conditions, but all in all, it wasn't too bad.

Thanks for the cache JackaKid

We walked this trail on a foggy cold Canberra morning. The caches were easy easy to find and the trail was well set up. thanks JK. I see there are a few more around the area - looking forward to doing them soon.

Out on a cache run with mr_roo. Picked up a few more of these JK series. TFTC

A nice easy find with kittykatch TFTC

Headed out this way to enjoy the sunshine on a good winters day. Rode out to number 46 and then worked my way back to the car. All found ok....

Thanks JackaKid.....

Knocked off a few of this series before the drizzle/rain set in. All interesting recipients and we salute their bravery. Not so sure about the cache containers

9688 + 1080 = 10768. Found the first seven in this new part of the VC series today with GSC2000, Stardust2410 and AwesomeL.

Between Swimming and Soccer we wandered along the trail collecting seven caches. This one was a nice quick find. Quick find. Signed, returned, then back to the car.

Thanks JackaKid ! I'm enjoying this series ! Very interesting reading the stories behine the VCs.

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

Came in here for a second ride, to pick up the ones I skipped over in the first pass! And it was slowly starting to warm up too! Ran into Liverpudlin at this stage - so continued on with him for the ones remaining for me. Thanks JK!

Picking them off at pretty regular intervals now
