Very sneaky took me longer then it should of to find this, looks like water has got into the container
Found this at an event a few months ago just catching up on my logs. Sorry for late log.
Making a dent in the kep series today. Thanks for the hide jasenjanine. Signed and replaced as found
Nice quick find. Dodging showers. Took 2 tbs against better judgement and will move on. Tftc
Took a bit longer than expected,but soon in hand. TFTC jasenjanine. Found with Jimmytherat
Quick find heading home from our girls weekend at WAGB Northam! Found with Geogypsys Tftc
As were are staying in the area we thought we would tackle some of the local caches along the Kep Track and pipeline as well as a few others. The co-ords for some gave a general indication of where GZ was, but caches for some were found quite some metres from that point. It was an interesting day's hunt, along with ilook4geo, with some finds being more challenging.
The caches which took us to places where there was signage about the local history were really appreciated.
Thanks go to jasenjanine for this cache placement.

Another brief sojourn along the Kep Track with the geodog, thanks again for the caches!
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.
Nice quick find for the first of the day.
Out and about bright and early grabbing some caches before the event at Lake Leschenaultia.
TFTC jasenjanine this is find # 4002 for us.

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
Aha, footprints in the grass around GZ; someone's been here very recently. Opened the log to find Treking Trev had noted the time of his find and it was just 19 minutes ago. Funny that, no visits to this cache in eight months then two right on top of each other. Cache is in great condition, thanks jasenjanine.
Went for a shopping/caching drive down to Midlands today from Northam. On the return trip back to the caravan park now. Another quick find due to the hint. TFTC.
Stopped to check on this one this morning & found the cache to be in good condition. Cheers J&J
Teamed up with Photo-Play, ullyssia and Bindi01 to tackle the KEP track between Bakers Hill and Northam. This cache was found quickly and was my second find for the day. Thank you for the hide and for a great series jasenjanine.
Thank you! I set out with papillon367, Photo-Play and Bindi01 to cycle the Kep track between Bakers Hill and Northam. This was found without issue.
ullyssia , Papillon 367, Photo_Play and my self set out for a days caching on the Kep Track From Bakers Hill to Northam along the track. This was a quick find here. Enjoying these caches and the cycling so far. TFTC jasenjanine
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.

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

I backtracked to here from Augustini Rd because it looked like a better path to Rock Garden, and on the way I stopped in at this one for a quick find.
Thanks for the cache jasenjanine!

10.35am FTF, woohoo!!
After the constant email notifications from my phone the last 2 nights, I grabbed my GPS & got in on the action!! Always nice to see a fresh blank log sheet
Thought I would leave some caches for others to claim a FTF as well!! All found well hidden & replaced just as well. Might eventually drag the deadly treadly to get the others not close to the road one day...
TFTH!!
