Always good to see a well sized cache as we like to leave a few trinkets/swag for following geocachers. We left a small jar of gold sheen obsidian, a money necklace, a Tamagotchi toy plus a bangle pen. We also did a bit of 'cache in, trash out' also. TFTC TEAM LANDCRUISER.
We are always on a hunt for some treasure exchanges, so the little ones have fun too. Thanks
Yay. Went for a walk to Blue Rock and found your cache. It's such a lovely spot. TFTC:)
Found with axell33. A great day to be in the bush! Cool and overcast as I enjoy all the spring flowers all through the bush. Love it! A nice quick find here with all well . Thanks for the hide here TEAM LANDCRUISER.
After hunting down a nearby newly published cache we made the hike through the bush to this one. Once at gz we spotted the prize and soon had our names added to your log. We returned your cache back to where we found it, it’s nice to nab another of the older caches still hiding. TFTC TEAM LANDCRUISER.
Found it. TFTC TEAM LANDCRUSER. Came to Jarrahdale area to do this Seinfeld series. Couldn't resist the challenge to get a smiley on this golden oldie. Happy to make the find here, replaced as found.
Wow. What a lovely place. We took the walking track... which turned out to be the long way, but spent a while 'playing' on the rock. After trekking up to the large cache we spotted the car and took the short way back. Fave point for the views. TFTC
While doing the Seinfeld series I ducked up to have a go at this one. Parked up about 25 meters from GZ and made the quick find of the nice sized container. Love finding these nice big oldies, awarding a favourite.
TEAM LANDCRUISER I found your cache at 12:05pm, this was the 2nd of 35 finds for me today and brings my total find count to 6642. The cache was in good order and I replaced it as found.

Got to within 15m of GZ on the trails in the CX5. Tried to take the track west back to the road but it was blocked and had to back track.
I love finding big caches like this in the bush and they are always worthy of a favourite point.
Thanks TeamLandcruiser.

Headed down to Jarrahdale to pickup a few caches in particular the new civilisation caches that we published a couple of days ago.
Had some good fun and enjoyed negotiating the ruts in the road.
Finished the little run with grabbing tree people 1 and blue rock, which provided a neat view of the surrounding area.
Thanks to the COs for the days fun.

After a mad dash down to civilisation area to collect some newly published caches we continued on a smiley hunt to make the most of the trip down, happy to say we came up trumps here and walked away with a smiley TFTC
What a great find, bit of a trek through the bush but found with no problems!

I was up there, listening to a talk by Eric McCrum about "life on the rocks", so I decided to check out this cache again. Sure enough, it was there, along with my entry from July 2004!
Impressive rock. Thought we were going to have to bush bash but found a kindof trail. Nice to find an ammo can so I could leave a shark's head I have been carrying around. TFTC.
Love walking over granite rocks. The cache was spot on with the coordinates. the ammo tin in good condition. Thanks

We thought we would so some caching this afternoon after the Event outside of Jarrahdale.
Nice little walk .

Another great location for an old Team LandCruiser cache. Managed to get the ute within 20m of GZ. Nice quick easy find and all in good condition.

Originally found under family caching name clan-wallace, now re logging under own name.
Found the track a previous finder mentioned & got within 30 metres. We did intend to walk but became exhausted by the standby me series. We have placed a very special TB here. He is a beautiful WHITE Polar bear from Norway. Please treat him well, keep him Clean & dry & be very selective about which cache you take him to. TFTC which deserves a favourite.
Lovely short walk in bushland (but watch out for orb spiders!)
Took a newbie with me, and it was the perfect cache to get someone hooked! She has now downloaded the app and is going on her first cache hunt tomorrow! TFTC. SL and swapped a couple of items. Everything in order.

Was worried if this cache would still be here after the area was opened up as a public firewood area. But the can was found alive and well, with all its contents safe, might be an idea to relocate it to a safer location in the area. Hopefully it wont get muggled in the mean time. Its good to see caches more than 10 years old still going strong.
TFTC Team Landcruiser - PS I just love rocks especially blue ones

Nice walk over and around the Blue Rock before finding the awesome cache. We love ammo cans! TFTC
I love finding these old caches and to see the original logbook from 2004 intact was a bonus.
I parked about 230 metres from GZ and hoofed in from there only to find a track about 20 metres from GZ
Found the cache very exposed in a wood cutting area. A bit more covered now but still a simple find.

Out for the day to find some caches found this one... but only buy tramping through the bush walk twice around to find the path in. No luck the map is in rough shape and no makers ?? Oh well I still made the find and filled the cache up with goodies.
TFTC good hide!
WATCH OUT FOR TICKS came out covered in them !

Headed out Jarrahdale for a bit of an adventure in the bush & to see what caches we could find along the way Not too sure how many times we have driven past this spot but never had the time to stop until today... We had a picnic lunch at the bottom before heading up the rock in search of treasure
TFTC TEAMLANDCRUISER [^] Cache was found safe & well before adding our names to the log & taking a few snaps of this lovely area!

I headed out to this atrea nice and early this morning with our geodog. Although it was VERY cold (minus 3 at one point) it was an enjoyable morning walking and grabbing smileys. A nice easy find here and the cache and contents are in good condition. TFTC TEAM LANDCRUISER
Spent a sunny spring Sunday with Happy Jacks 55 doing the bush ranger series on Albany Highway, Jarradale and picking up a few stragglers on SW Highway on the way home. TFTC
Climbed the rock and checked out the orchids while the guys found the cache. What a beautiful spot. TFTC

A couple of caches to keep the monthly totals ticking along, some caches that needed to be turned into similies on my map.
This cache has been here for over nine years, and it remains in great condition Thanks for bringing me here.

Well worth the trek with the kids. Cache still in good condition and dry. Signed the log. Thanks for the cache!
TFTC TEAM LANDCRUISER. Checked this one out with the grandkids and did a couple of swaps. Has been on our list for awhile. Finally got to do it when we went out for some firewood. Signed log.
Loved the Rock and everything that was growing on it. I think the last time I stopped here was in 1976, although I have driven past dozens of times.
Made our way into the bush to make a quick find which wasn't hard as the co-ords are spot on.
Signed the log and made our way back to the car. Just before we left the logged off area we spotted what I thought were dragonflies flitting about over the rocks but hubby thought they were bugs. On closer inspection it proved to be tiny lizards that were running like little rockets. They varied in size from small to teeny tiny with me thinking they were baby racehorse lizards and hubby thinking not. Whatever they were, they were enjoyable to watch and very fast.

I needed a cache with "Blue" in the title for the current GeosportZ game, and this one filled the bill. Everything is very damp about here, with water seeping out everywhere from the massive Blue Rock, which looks wonderful with its moss covered clothing. The pathways are now almost non existent, so had to pick my own way to the cache, which was fine as it is only light scrub.
Left my pathtag. Thanks for bringing me here and for the lovely sized cache Team Landcruiser.

Mmm, great location - loved all the moss and lichen and all the frogs calling out to each other. Tried not to walk on anything too fragile, but couldn't really find any pathway to follow. Cache coords were pretty spot on too. Thanks TEAM LANDCRUISER

Boy were the flies bad today, we had to resort to wearing the fly nets. Impressive rock formation and a quick walk of around 130 mts from the far side into the bush and gz.
After a little climb over the rock and a little walk we found the cache. Some interesting red topped stakes on the way in.... An easy find SL TFTC TLC
Ready hike up the hill. Beautiful black cockatoos on approach and loved the mossy rock. Fantastic spot, thank you! ^_^
Nice area, thak you for the cache. Dropped TB (Ellino's GPS Microcoin) & took TB (coin).
good cache TFTF

I remember coming here as a kid with my parents and another family. Rock looks very blue in the photos but it was very grey up close today. Alot of that was to do with the cloud cover though.
Was a good walk for me. Geokiddies didnt enjoy it as much sue to the prickle bushes.

Didn't worry too much about the different walks here, just went over the rock and through the bush. Rasy to find at the end.
great place out of the way, the rock was very blue in the drizzle today. TSLS TFTH SL
We ended up doing the long walk and it was really good, came to the cache towards the end of our walk and a nice easy find was made.
Never been here before so it was great to have a cache bring us to a new spot..thank you!

Second find for the day - nice climb up the rock - geo baby (2yrs) from Bashers Bunch did it with ease. Took Carabiners and left 2 x bangles, mini slinky and a ring.
Thanks for the hunt
