By jasenjanine on 01-Mar-16. Waypoint GC66TNJ

This was sitting out in the open so we werent sure if it was where it should have been. We placed it behind the nearby log so it wasnt so obvious.TFTC jasenjanine

Not entirely sure it where it was found was correct, but, I nabbed it anyways. Replaced as found. TFTC jasenjanine

Awesome to see the red tailed cockatoos.TFTC

Found ist, thank you:)

A wonderful walk in the afternoon sun. A lot of the spring flowers are already out. TFTC

A snug fit. Left Abu. TFTC.

Excellent construction tftc

Another weekend, another stretch of the KEP with MitchDem, this was a goodie for the last of our day today, TFTC

Checked on this one today & all is good with this one... Strange that there is not much parrot bush here anymore so we have tucked the cache a little further off the track. Co-ords still good at this location.

Cheers JnJ

No joy here either

Out and about on the bike doing some more of the KEP series. Nice camo here TFTC

Great to get out with relaxing of restrictions. All caches were found in good condition. More of a lucky strike here than considered hunting. All well. tftc

pug002 found it 11/5/20 great day for geocaching again. Fav from us. TFTC jasenjanine

Headed to Northam early this morning and spent a few hours pick up some more caches along The Kep.
TFTC jasenjanine this is find # 8533 for us.

Great camo blends in very well. TFTC

I decided to go for a ride today and do another stretch of the KEP track. Quick find, though I never like Parrot bush as I always come out scratched, GPS decided to put me in the middle of the bushes but I found out I didn't need to go that far. 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

Another geocaching hike along the Kep trail with the geodog - this time around Wundowie, thanks for the caches! Great cache for this one!

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. The GPs took me into the thick of it, that was a waist of searching time. 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 took a bit of searching around with our GPSs not agreeing on where to look. Great construction and camouflage, a favorite.
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.
The gps originally had us a few metres away, but after a bit of a search around the sneaky cache was found.

That could have taken quite a while but, for some reason, thought to check THAT thing out. Not sure why, but it came up trumps. Thanks for the cache, great effort that, 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. Good hide. Parrot bushes everywhere, but managed not to scratch myself which makes a nice change. TFTC jasenjanine

I walked to this one.
.don't ask me why. It has something to do with Mad dogs & Englishmen. Boy its hot out here. TFTC jasenjanine

Nicely hidden TFTC

Found THE KEP – Parrot Bush Paradise. That’s a very, very clever hide! TNLN SL TFTH jasenjanine.

An oxymoron surely. Like the fools we are, we went trudging through the parrot bush for this one. Pays to look at the GPS occasionally! Duh. TFTC

So we walked through the bushes....idiots tftc

Great spot TFTC

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 !!!!

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 a bit wet but I had another fun filled day grabbing the and playing in the mud along the track.

jasenjanine - jinta29 found your cache THE KEP - Parrot Bush Paradise. This is my find #5556 and find #18 today. The cache is in good shape and we replaced it as found. Thanks for placing this and bringing us to this spot!

Number 3. Great hide!

If there was an easy way to get to this one the crew definitely didn't take that option! What an adventure! We were rewarded with a well constructed cache! We are enjoying the variety of hides in this series, we can appreciate the time and effort you have put in for others to enjoy! A favourite point from us! TFTC

TFTH Wandered into the great unknown with Geo R and H. Geo R had his Garmin and I had the phone. If you could see the tracking on the Garmin anybody would think these geocachers were drunk. When we got near to GZ we realised we could have made it by a much easier way! Oh well, that's part of the geocaching fun!! Again Geo H made the find of a well constructed camo. Didn't see any parrots though but i am sure there was a kookaburra laughing at us:)))

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.

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

Add fav.

Came out for a drive this afternoon to do some more of the series. Started further to the east and continued west back towards home and ended up at this one as I had done the rest to the west.

Was another quick find here.

Log signed and cache returned as found.

Thanksjasenjanine for the cache.

2nd to find on this one.
It was early days so I did the honours on Easter Sunday
Thanks jasenjanine

Hiddo followed my instructions so well on the previous find that I sent her in here for another find! Thanks for the cache.

Quick find here.

FTF @ 1508 Once again I took the wrong track and had to fight my way back to the cache
