We did a lot of research and puzzling in the run-up to our cacher tour around Kilcoy.We spent many hours solving them at home on this Geoart.We finally travelled to Kilcoy and looked for lots of roses in the beautiful countryside.Thank you for the beautiful Geoart and greetings from Team sissifalke

During the first lockdown in Melbourne, instead of making sourdough bread or starting a veggie garden like everyone else, I focused on solving puzzles.With the hot weather and long grass, we very carefully made our way to GZ. Thankfully the only thing we came across was the cache.Thanks JACS Team for the variety of puzzles and the caches.

Today is day 2 up here in Kilcoy to do the Rose GeoArt. Everybody I know has done this GeoArt, when I was still working. Now that I have been retired for some years , I knew it was about time to do it. Started late morning and after 4 hours completed 27 caches. TFTC JACS Team

Found on a trip through Broken Hill, Tilpa, Bourke, Cunnamulla, Charleville, Tambo, Blackall and Barcaldine to attend the QOGM at Longreach, then to Emerald, Biloela, Monto, Gayndah and Kilcoy on my way to Brisbane for a few days before a return drive back to Adelaide. Thanks for the cache, and for the entertaining caching foray around Kilcoy JACS Team!

Out geocaching w Treasure Trakas and enjoying the lovely weather and gorgeous scenery. Apologies for the generic log however with the better part of the 65 Roses to find and log, cut and paste has beome a necessity. Thank you JACS Team for the effort in putting this series together.

Out for a day of caching with SusanDW. We had a great day, finding all the caches that we looked for. A day with no DNFs is always a great day. Thanks to the CO for this fantastic series.

This puzzle was only recently worked through in preparation for a visit like today, although it was a last-minute trip. The different codes/ciphers were worked through to discover this mystery person.

After parking the vehicle and jumping out to start searching around GZ, it wasn't long before I spotted the cache, even without a hint. The cache container and logbook were in good shape. A highlight at this location was finding a turtle hanging out nearby to the pull-off area, alive and well! Thanks JACS Team for the cache placement and ongoing maintenance.

----------

During this extended weekend, it was a trip north to find the 65 Roses geoart in Kilcoy, followed by two days boating on Lake Somerset to defeat the Dark Side series joined with [GurTheWanderer](https://coord.info/PRWMPWQ) and [stairman1](https://coord.info/PR4R27Z).

Today, I headed north via Caboolture, and I made stops in D'Aguilar and Woodford, before stopping at Stoney Creek in Bellthorpe National Park. Towards the latter morning, I set off finding the *65 Roses* geoart concentrating on the eastern circuit via Mount Kilcoy first, before then heading north, and back into Kilcoy for lunch. After tackling the central geocaches, I proceeded west through Woolmar, before finishing the series via the southern stem. As I was staying in D'Aguilar tonight, I returned via Mount Archer and a detour into the northern section of D'Aguilar National Park. A nice and cool weather day for collecting this series, and most of the geocaches were in good condition.

With the kiddies at home Alyce and I decided to head to Kilcoy for a few hours to get started on the Rose.

We had a blast navigating the roads and enjoying the beautiful Somerset region. This place is truely breathtaking. I don’t know what it is, but I have a feeling it must be the country roads and getting away from everything, it’s something else. We don’t come here often, but we’re looking forward to returning to finish the series.

Thanks you JACS Team for the placement, puzzles, ongoing maintenance and for keeping this series alive.

Thanks for bringing us here.

OMG...I found these, probably last year now Surprised with Willis007 but said I would solve all the puzzles before actually logging them. About a month ago I put them on my Must-Do list and now I am finally here,. Today is the day. I am going to finish these as puzzles were all solved in January when I was stuck in bed with covid for about a month. Peppa was my constant go with with a hint (or sometimes 7....)

I didn't need to solve every line, just the ones I was familiar with.
 
29-Jul-22
We had planned a road trip to Queensland to visit family in 2021, but our travel plans were stalled due to border closures during the COVID-19 pandemic. Now that the world was trying to get back to a semi normal state, we decided to have another go at getting away from the cold and head up north for some sunshine and warmth.

Day 14 – Farewells were done in Nanango with family and now heading to more family in Morayfield collecting more caches along our journey.

Solved all these puzzles before our trip so decided to try and pick some up while we were passing through the area.

All caches were found in good condition unless otherwise mentioned.
Thanks JACS Team for the placements and keeping this hobby alive.
 
26-Jun-22
Stopping in Kilcoy for a few days. Having previously contacted the CO of 65 Roses, today we headed out to tackle a few more, well with great weather and an easy run we actually completed the series!
All caches logged by us have been refreshed/replaced and left in good condition, with notes sent to CO.

Found while heading back home to Adelaide after attending the Mega event at Townsville over Easter.

I ended up camping at Kilcoy for a couple of nights, attempting a few of the series late yesterday afternoon and most of the others today. Unfortunately the weather was not great with consistent, almost constant, light rain throughout the nights and days, but it wasn’t cold so not so bad for caching really.

I quite enjoyed solving the puzzles in this series in preparation for the trip but the caches weren’t so great. Many were missing, probably as a result of the recent flooding, and most are in need of maintenance. The coordinates and hints for a few were also a bit off, possibly due to cache creep.

Thanks JACS Team for the puzzle and the cache.
 
23-Apr-22
After a few days of knocking over some of these puzzle caches the time finally arrived to turn them into smileys. Headed out early on a gorgeous Saturday morning to work my way slowest through this fantastic piece of geo art.

Won’t finish them all today but look forward to coming back soon to complete the series.

Thanks to the co’s for the effort in placing an d maintaining this wonderful reason to explore this part of the world.

With 8 of the 65 Roses left to find, and a spare day off, I decided it was time to head out and finish the series. With geopup on board, we headed to Kilcoy.
I love these types of puzzles, and after solving this series used the same idea.
Arriving at gz the cache was quickly found. The log was a little damp but able to be signed.
Thanks JACS Team for the great puzzle and cache.

With an unusual public holiday announced, a plan was hatched to return to Kilcoy with the goal of finishing the 65 Roses Geoart… we’d last been here in January… so with PirateLinda, Giraffe18, 2manytrailers, Catboy67 and Blkthunder we left home at stupid o’clock this morning in convoy arriving in Kilcoy at 8am… With six of us the caches didn’t stand a chance… logs signed in full or some combination of P, PL, G18, 2MT, CB67 & BT…

A puzzle that required a little research…

Back on the road after lunch and we’ve managed to drive past a couple of caches… but the plan is to come back this way… log book is just hanging in there… tftc…

That is so bizarre. I wrote out this nice log here and it's gone into the ether. So here's another one.
I found the cache after some blindness, and got very lucky as the log had dried since june and was signable.
The puzzle i enjoyed over the course of many breakdowns and months.

Easter trip away with fitzy_1965 for the cacheQLD Dayboro Mega.

Decided to pack up and head north a day earlier as we were no longer dry in our tent. Teamed up with Albida33 and Smittengranny (signing as FAMS) to do the 65 Roses Geo-art and any others in-between before parting ways and caching our way to Maryborough where we will be based for three nights.

All caches were found in good condition unless otherwise stated.

24,387. Found with minniek on our Dayboro QLD MEGA Adventure trip. For today we also cached with albida33 and Smittengranny to form and sign as FAMS !

Day 7. Enough was enough. We decided that we had had enough of the rain at Dayboro, so we upped stumps a day early and started our journey up to Maryborough via The Roses Geo-Art and a couple more counties. Smittengranny and albida joined us for the Geo-Art. So after packing up the sodden campsite we headed north to Kilcoy after a final trip to the Dayboro Bakery. This was the next stop for the day. This was a quick find at GZ. Signed the log as FAMS, replaced the cache as found, then headed off to the next one.

Thanks JACS Team !!
 
06-Apr-21
Dayboro trip. Day 12. With the Mega officially over, there was another day of caching to be done in the region. Today it was Fitzy_1965, MinnieK and SmittenGranny who joined me for a trip to Kilcoy. We spent the morning finding the Roses series that had been solved before the trip away. A fun collection of town and country caching, in the heavy rain at some times. Happily the heavy rain came after the walk was completed. I returned to Dayboro for my last night and the others headed north for more travel. It has been a great experience caching in the region and with so much more to do I will have to visit again. Bring on the next Brisbane Mega !

Thanks for the cache JACS Team

Left the Mega and headed to Kilcoy for some flowers with BenM70 and Burgo78 on this wet day.
The area here will look fantastic when the sun comes out over all the green pastures, but today it was really a day to sit in front of a fire. Instead of a fire, I kept the car heater on a bit to keep us warm.

Signing the logs as BBK today to save space.

Thank you JACS for this cache!

#10931 - 12:36:00 PM; Day seven of a road trip with Sol de lune as we head north for the CacheQLD - Dayboro Mega. After a second night in Esk, we packed up and headed off on our final leg to the Mega. High on the agenda for today was awaiting advice on the Brisbane lockdown and whether or not the Mega would actually go ahead, or whether we would be turning around and heading home early. While we waited, we set out to log the "65 Roses" geoart series in and around Kilcoy. The good news on the lockdown came between our fourth and fifth finds in the series, so we knew we had time to try and complete it before we headed to Dayboro. All up we had 60 finds and four DNFs for the series. Most of the finds were fairly straight forward, while some required a little more effort, reference to hints and/or earlier logs and/or the exercise of the geosenses. Enjoyed the variety of the puzzles and the hides. One left for the return journey to complete the series. Apologies for the generic logs. TFTC JACS Team Smile
 
01-Apr-21
Day 7 of the trip north with LuckyL10n and today saw us leaving Esk and heading to Dayboro....and finally the cacheQLD Mega. Luckily the event has now got the go ahead and all is good....

Our plan for the day was this series and we simply took our time and got around the caches without to many issues. 4 DNF's in there, but that still meant over 60 finds.

Thanks for the caches and the reason to check out the area JACs Team....

Found one like this before which helped find this one quickly. Thanks for the cache.
 
31-Mar-21
Thanks for another great puzzle. Found, signed and returned the cache. Thank you for placing it.
 
30-Mar-21
We didn't get off to a great start on this one as we had a couple of DNF's early but we got better as we got into the trail. We only had time for a few of these but we can say that we enjoyed the variety of hides and except for the dnf's found them to be relatively quick finds. We did find one of the field puzzles and did enjoy that.

At the mega we were told more about the meaning of the 65 roses and thought that it was a lovely idea for a series.

Thanks JACS Team we will have to finish this series off on another visit, please excuse the generic log as all our notes for this series were drowned at Dayboro and we now know our camper has a small leak.
 
28-Mar-21
Unfortunately plan A wasn’t able to happen today so that meant I needed a plan B. Having just had some help finishing the puzzles for this geoart, I took the opportunity to turn some of them into smileys. It was a great day driving around Kilcoy making the finds, I didn’t get them all but made a very good dent.
Only needed to decode a few clues before I knew who the answer was. Cache found in good condition.

Lake Somerset Trip - Day 6

After a delayed start to the day (after 2 big days on the lake), our aim was to cherry pick a number of the 65 roses powertrail. Managed to avoid the drizzle for most of the afternoon.

EDIT: 21/3/21
After returning home from our trip, I have started solving some of the puzzle caches where I had signed the log. Converting my write note to a found log.

First day in Kilcoy. We're here to smell the roses, and so far the caches we found are well placed - and they are a joy to find. At our last location we had to wade through head high grass, dodging cobblers pegs, bindeis and spider webs for most caches.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found your cache within a few metres of where our GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The container and log book are in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing
**Left:** Nothing

Thank you for adding to our adventure.

Out and about on a power trail today - targeting the Roses geoart (wahoo! highly recommended), the Potter Puzzles geoart, and the Hamilton power trail. It was a long but fantastic day with myself, Pprime (P') and mini oz_bean_counter, and the logs were signed as OP'X to reflect this. Started at 4 am with a check on the US election progress, in the car by 4.45 am and the first cache by 5.30 am. Home and dead tired 12 hours later, where wine and pizza were necessary to refuel the body before I crashed for the night. I was delighted to end the day with 124 finds (plus 5 DNFs, and revisited 2 caches) - a new daily record for me. I was really really happy to be celebrating that achievement with family and good friends.

Thanks for all the COs for their time and effort in placing and maintaining these caches. Apologies for the generic log.

With a planned weekend caching trip to grab the nearby dark series, I had today to make my way up to Kilcoy and grab a few of the rose’s series. A planned meet up with my “bud” team tyrrell for drinks at 6.00pm meant I had 3 hours to grab a few beforehand. Having solved a lot of these a few months prior and a few more over the last week it was time to see my achievements.

I was pretty excited to be out and getting into this series, I managed to get 30 of the series today and a couple of DNF’s, which I informed the CO about. There were some funny and different caches in this series and I wish I had been around when the original caches were placed. With the caches found I signed the log and replaced as found or better placed as a few were in the open or not attached as hint suggested.

Time to head to my camp ground and get ready for the weekend’s events. Thank you to the CO for this series.

My Muggle husband and i decided to go for a country drive and find some caches . we admired how green it was compared to our last drive. At gz my husband came out to help me and the sun was shining brightly right on the cache which made it a quick find. THese puzzles are my favorite types of puzzles and Bear0503 solved it over a couple of lunch breaks. Thanks for the fun puzzle and for taking us here. I see the damns around here also have lots of water that were dry last visit. Thanks for the fun

This series was solved before departure from Adelaide and was on the cards for today, we managed to find about 1/3 of the caches before DNFing 2 so after that we left it as we knew we would have to return to complete it one day.
Most of the caches are in good condition although some of the field puzzles were broken and some of the caches were missing bits and pieces of there containers.
Overall a good series and a bit of fun.

On a holiday to Queensland to meet up with my two younger brothers (JL Rockstar) for a holiday/caching trip, a 4 day adventure that started with some disasters but slowly got better throughout which ended on a high.
Travelling up to tin can bay and Gympie, our to Kilroy and south west out to Ipswich.
Overall a great trip away with a total of 79 finds excluding the almost 50 labs found.

Thanks for the cache and it’s placement.

My mission today was to try and find as many of the Roses series caches as I could. Apologies first for the cut / paste logs. I don't usually like to do that but make the odd exceptions for power trails and cache series like this. I will try to call out anything that stood out for me. I noticed this geoart series when I was passing through the area about a month ago. I was pretty sure that I would have to come back so tried to find time to solve as many of the puzzles as I could. This week I was back in the area for work so set today aside to get out and do some serious caching. These 'Who am I?' puzzles were tricky. I'm not too familiar with the Australia personalities and some of the ciphers had me stumped but I was able to extract enough information for Google to deliver the goods. TFTC, Biggles.

A day out with the Bromance saw a lot of laughs, plenty of caches including the Rose Geo Art, a lot of rubbish picked up along the way and heaps of fun. Sorry it has taken so long to log these, they were found way back in March! No excuse for not logging really - just a bit lazy I guess. Great fun, cheers.

Crookedpete was the inspiration behind our trip to Kilcoy today. With his cache count odometer slowly ticking its way towards 5000, he was keen for a sugar hit to his finds tally. I have been eyeing off this series of caches on and off for a while now, and CP's need was the impetus to get us out here. Before we could though we had to set about solving some puzzles. I had a few solutions already stored away but a mad bout of puzzle solving was required in the week before departure. I managed to solve all but a few, with the others in the Bromanceketeers filling the gaps.

An enjoyable day was had by all and our tally of caches was equalled by our haul of recyclable containers which we picked up along the roadside at each cache. We signed the logbbook with "Bromance" to save space not to mention time and our sanity. Thank you for your efforts in laying this trail of caches.

With plans being tentatively formulated for my next milestone, I needed to get a few numbers under the belt (lest the entire year slips away before I get to said milestone.)

Despite all of the Bromance (Seffnjarah, Swellerfungus and myself) having lost our power trail mojo, Seffnjarah suggested the Kilcoy rose series for a morning Bromance road trip. With a hot day forecast, we hit the road early at SeffnStupid o'clock and had the first cache completed just as the sun peaked over the horizon. The last for the day was signed before noon.

The series had a good variety of clever hides - difference styles of micros were found on both the left and right hand side of various road signs, the occasional ammo can made an appearance, we managed a few simple tree climbs and the best of all - we managed to collect three rarer large size caches today! Hooray!

Along the way, we all collectively did our part for the environment and CITO'd a good size bin full of cans,plastic and glass bottles from almost every cache we visited. The tally for the day was 65 containers recycled (one for every rose!). With thanks to the cash for cans scheme, the Bromance slush fund balance now sits at $6.50, which should buy about 4 litres of diesel. Doesn't sound too impressive, but we were collectively proud of our efforts.

Another puzzle that came together nicely. Logs were mostly signed "Bromance" to save space. Many thanks JACS Team for placing this cache.

This puzzle took quite a while to solve. With a lot of searching, it was firstly done through the process of elimination after seeing who did and did not meet the requirements of all these questions. Finally, I found someone that seem to line up with what was needed.
Geochecker smiled on me.
Log signed today!
Thanks JACS Team,

Rolling back to Brissy after an overnight stay out west and a break in the clouds. Much cooler today and happy to report we have had rain at Cooyar Kilcoy a perfect break in the drive and trying to crack 5k for the Mega, which may or may not happen

No probs with the puzzles and most were fun and solved easily. My trusty co-solver was tasked with the Who Am I? conundrums.

TFTC JACS Team!

Some decoding delivered a solution to this puzzle. On last years parental caching retreat we found many similar hides. Thanks again JACS Team
