No luck

Out for a mornings fun with the "Team" and catch up with arnott.family. Lots of adventure, laughs, great caches and hides were had.

This was a quick find today, tftc!

A plan was formed to meet up with Brett aka arnott.family for a mornings fun around the Wundowie area today, picking off some DNF's, trads & mysteries. A huge thanks to the CO's for their hides, some of which were amazing. A special note to J&J as most were theirs - just keep those gadgets caches coming!

Knowing this one was recently replaced, a quick find was made here today.

TFTC jasenjanine!

After a check of location & the surrounds, we were unable to find this one

Have replaced with similar sized container within 50cm of concrete block.

Cheers JnJ

Bummer.

No luck here today!! Huge ant nest at GZ!

Oh well found some great spots to hide a cache but no luck in the real thing, TFTH!

Walking the next part of the KEP with MitchDem this morning while it's not stinking hot, nice easy find, TFTC

Tftc

Thankyou. On a run on the Kep track. It’s got a bit wet
The ants are savage

Out of Perth for the arvo to get some caches. Some along KEP trail too. Quick find here. Signed log and put back. Thanks for the hide

Out ‘n about with m4yb getting a few caches.
Nasty ants attacked us here.
Thanks for the hide and jasenjanine.

We are back camphosting at Mundaring Weir, so a good opportunity for a drive and a ride to add smilies along the KEP! Ants! Made the find but dropped phone and pen on the way back, so had to go back LOL, TFTC!

Our first day below 40 degrees over Xmas so talked my muggle friends to come
for a drive to collect some smilies. Thanks to the COs for placing these caches for us to enjoy. Signed and replaced as found.

Tftc!

Out and about on the bike doing some more of the KEP series. Nicely hidden this one TFTC

pug002 found it on another stint at geocaching, had enough of burning off so time to add some more smileys. TFTC jasenjanine

Not so easy find but found it

Came in to this one from the road...not recommended unless you like a spiky bush bash. TFTC

Decided to spend some long overdue time out on The Kep Track picking up some caches.
TFTC jasenjanine this is find # 8465 for us.

Checked on this cache & replaced logbook [^]

Happy Hunting

I decided to go for a ride today and do another stretch of the KEP track. Quick find. TFTC

A nice early start with Neva2old to grab a couple of caches before meeting up with TheMongrel to continue or hunt along the Kep track, we had a fantastic day today with mostly nice quick finds. The weather held out and we only had a couple of sprinkles of rain. TFTC

Out and about with Parkacruz and eventually Themongrel to tackle a few more of the Kep series and a few others on the way. The rain held off although temperature gauge said 3 degrees at one stage and the seat warmers set to toasty we had a great day Tftc.

with neva2old and parkacruz tftc

A Sunday morning with the geodog successfully dedicated to completing the Government Rd section of the amazing Kep Track (and occasional Viper) series - thanks for the caches!

Found it. TFTC jasonjanine. Teamed up with ullyssia and papillon367 for another section of the Kep track series. It was Bakers Hill to Wooroloo, a really great day for riding. Ok, now lets just pause for a minutes silence for the cache guardians that lost their lives at this site, all in the line of duty. I have never seen ullyssia move so fast. Thanks for this series.

Teamed up with ullyssia and Photo-Play for a second bite at this series. We went from Bakers Hill to Wooroloo and had a great day enjoying the variety of hides along the track.
This one was a quick find but there were a lot of ants around and they took a few bites...
Thank you for the cache and for the series jasenjanine.

Thank you! Headed out with Photo-Play and papillon367 for a ride along the track from Bakers Hill to Wooroloo.
Straightforward find here. Cache in good condition.
Unfortunately the ants like hanging around GZ - I didn't even see them until papillon367 mentioned I was standing among them. I may have accidentally killed a few while stomping to shake them off.

Quick find, cache in good condition. Great idea for a cache container, this. Another stretch of the KEP covered today and it's a nice one. Thanks for the cache jasenjanine.

A quick find by PP1, followed by a pretty impressive ant dance. TFTC jasenjanine

After such great fun and enjoyment from yesterdays walk, I set out today to continue the trek. I walked from Wooroloo to Clackline. Another hot day, but I took two breaks along the way at Wundowie and Bakers Hill to replenish. Arrived at Clackline around dusk to then realise there were no transport options to return to Wooroloo other than to walk back in the dark. Thankfully I brought a good torch to guide the way. I hope to complete the track all the way to Northam sometime soon. TFTC jasenjanine

TFTC!

Found it

Met up early this morning with ssclan with the plan to ride as much of the KEP trail as we could before the rain arrived. Armed with a coffee from DOME we arrived around 7am in Chidlow. With 2 cars we took the second to Wundowie and then headed back to Childow to start the ride.

Great morning with only the 1 DNF, arriving in Wundowie by bike around 11:45am, just as the drizzle set in. From there it was a tour of several of the caches around the town followed by a couple on the way back to Chidlow.

Ended the day with 55 finds, so a great day out. Loving the KEP trail, another 36 completed today but still plenty to go.

Thanks to Jasenjanine for this great series, and for the inventive puzzles and other caches around Wundowie

Headed east early this morning to get some smilies on the KEP Track with Spatialriq. Also picked up some others along the way. Quite a successful day on the bikes with 58 finds and only 1 dnf.
Thanks jasenjanine for a great series and a couple of head scratching puzzles. Hopefully I'll be back soon to complete the rest of the series.

I had the chance for an hour of caching this afternoon after doing some letterboxing in Chidlow and headed directly for this series, picking up where I left off months ago.

I missed this one on the way out as I couldn't find a suitable parking spot, and even coming back I had to go past it and double back again. Once I go to GZ it was a relatively quick find.

Thanks for the cache jasenjanine!

Found THE KEP – Concrete Block. On the other side of the track. Had to bush bash a bit to get to this one . SL TFTH jasenjanine.

TFTC 2nd time around and the cache was there. Obviously the extra protection was needed to keep it safe. Pleased to be able to sign the log and claim the smilie. Thanks jasenjanine.

We have completed the KEP series from Northam to Chidlow, however a few more caches have been added by another caching team which has interrupted our lovely smilie line since we were here! We have managed to fix most of that today before a pitstop at the Bakers Hill Bakery and a quick find at this GZ that we were unable to collect on our last visit! Making our way to Mount Helena! TFTC

Edit soon bloody ants

We have been tackling this series over a period of time and it was time to bite the bullet and get it completed .... So the geowife instructed me it was my time to complete it !!!!!
I packed the car with the old push bike and hit the trail early ......
It was dark when I hit Mundaring so it was out with the torch . Did I mention the weather was dismal !!!!
I managed to collect 81 and no DNFs.
Many different containers used so it was a pleasure to see a variety and the way they were used .....
I saw the history of the KEP track in different stages from the old water pipe to the railway sliding's / landings and the buildings close to the track from that era .
Sorry for the genetic log as I didn't take any notes but will comment on the ones I can remember !!!!

Enjoying a holiday in Perth with tmann421 and collecting a few caches along the way.
Another great find here. TFTC

Another fun find with Just-Lookin.
Back today to complete more of the KEP trail
SL TFTC

Got up early and while muggle husband played golf at El Caballo, decided to tackle as much of the Kep as we could today. Had a great time on a beautiful Sunday morning, the first for so long that wasn't wet. Great variety of caches that were well hidden. .Tftc, jasenjanine.

I headed out to this area with the mountain bike for a second crack at polishing off a few more of the Kep series of caches. The weather was getting better with bright blue skies now. There was still a lot of puddles along the way and no one else around. Very peaceful!

jasenjanine - jinta29 found your cache THE KEP - Concrete Block. This is my find #5568 and find #30 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Was admiring the cache when I accidentally knocked it down the hill. All good, back in place now! TFTC

Great hide tftc

Went to check on this one after reports that it may be missing and found its hidey hole empty

Cache has now been replaced in the same spot & ready to be found again.

Found with KB on Easter Sunday thanks for the cache jasenjanine

TFTC! Found on a lovely mornings caching out to Northam to tackle a leg of the KEP track series between wundowie and Northam.

Was a lovely morning with nearly all caches found, a few did not attempts, due to various reasons.

Highlight of the day was the refractory building, took some lovely pictures there and will return to tackle the two caches nearby that were a bit too tough to grab today.

Had to be back in Perth earlier than planned so will have to return to tackle the rest of the series another day. Thanks

ended my extended long weekend doing some more Geocaching, turns out it has been a full on 5 days of caching from Jurian Bay to Augusta and out to Northam/York. covered a fair few more KM of this Great state TFTH TFTC

Up bright and early this morning to head to Northam with iluvtrekking mainly to do The Kep Track caches. All caches in the series located using a combination of roadside access or the geo-hubbies plying the treddlies down the tracks. A great day out and many thanks to jasenjanine for the awesome effort in laying this series down.

Richlink stayed over on Saturday night so that we could make and early, early start on Sunday morning.
So, with the bikes loaded we headed off in the dark to Northam, "The Kep" caches firmly in our sights. Some of the caches were accessed on foot from the nearest parking spot and others by bike. Although there was some heavy rain storms on Monday and we were wet through we found all of the caches and had a great couple of days finishing up with lunch at The Weir Hotel on Monday.

Congratulations jasenjanine, what a fantastic effort here.

We saw a few concrete blocks today and thankfully this one wasn't swimming in water. Thanks for the hide.

(chwiliwr team catch up log)

I decided that we were going out caching despite the weather so headed up to do some more of this series. Ended up quite wet at times but found all the caches without too much trouble in the rain. Some of them were even found without rain falling on us.

We started at the wier to finish of the few that we missed the other day when heading home and once they were done headed up to where we ended the other day near Wooroloo and continued on from there.

Cache logs were signed and caches returned as found.

Thanks jasenjanine for the cache.
