Yak To The Shadows update:

I completed Task #32 by going to Karamja to fish 425 swordfish. After 36 inventories, I ended up with 436 raw swordfish and 476 raw tuna. I also grabbed 26 bananas while I was there.

For Task #33 I can either craft 975 green dragonhide bodies/shields, or burn 1,750 mahogany, yew, or magic logs. I am leaning towards Firemaking.

I still haven't found a single Yak Track skip token on the beach. I am starting to think it's a myth they can even be found as a drop while skilling on the beach.

I am currently on the beach burning yew logs to complete Yak Track Task #33. I have to burn 1,750 logs. As I burned yew log #382, I reached Firemaking level 83! :)

My Total Level is 1565 (Virtual Level 1566).

I've been drinking Purple Lumbridges to gain and maintain the +10% boost to XP.

Right, time to get back to more drunken bonfire building. What could go wrong there?! :P

Shortly after Happy Hour hit the beach this afternoon, I decided to take a break from burning yew logs (I was at 1,253/1,750) to train in the Dungeoneering hole. After about ten minutes of this, I managed to reach Dungeoneering level 82! :)

My Total Level is 1566 (Virtual Level 1567).

Dungeoneering is still my lowest F2P skill, although it would've been tied with Firemaking, if I hadn't raised that skill earlier this afternoon.

In the hole, I found several cocktails, a couple of ice creams, and a Beach apron token.

While continuing to burn yew logs on Lumbridge Beach, after I had burned 1,385/1,750 logs, I reached Firemaking level 84! :)

My Total Level is 1567 (Virtual Level 1568).

Yak To The Shadows update:

I finished Task #33 by burning 1,750 yew logs. This got me two Firemaking levels.

Along the way, I also collected 17 fire spirits, which were freed from the burning yew logs. Instead of collecting the rewards from each fire spirit right away, I banked the spirits and set them free all at once. They were happy. Here's what they gave me before they vanished:

7,200 coins
640 fire runes
360 air runes
6 ashes
4 mithril stone spirits
1 uncut ruby

By the way, fire spirits do not stack in the bank. These took up 17 bank slots! It's a good thing my bank capacity is 670 slots, plus another 500 slots for P2P items.

For Task #34 I can either cook 1,920 swordfish or string 2,250 bows. O_o

I still have not found any skip tokens. Maybe I will use my one remaining skip to auto-complete this task. Time is starting to be a real issue.

Yak To The Shadows update:

I finished Task #34 by cooking 1,920 swordfish in Al Kharid. Upon cooking 1,415/1,920, I managed to reach Cooking level 92! :)

My Total Level is 1568 (Virtual Level 1569).

So now I am halfway to 99 Cooking! This is now my third-highest skill, behind Smithing and Mining. Who could've foreseen that?! O_o

Completing this task earned me the Fatesworn Crossbow.

Task #35 is between killing 3,340 monsters or crafting/siphoning 1,220 body runes. Again, I would've preferred the combat option - but not 3,340 times! That's one of the major problems with these Yak Tracks. They are not designed to be fun. They are designed to sell bonds. Games should be fun. They should not feel too much like work. I do enjoy working on my skills. I just don't enjoy having to grind to where it becomes unhealthy.

Yak To The Shadows update:

I crafted 1,253/1,220 runes at the body altar to complete Task #35.

For Task #36, I can smith 75 adamant/rune items or catch 500 swordfish. Of course, I'll choose the Smithing option and make some more rune arrowheads.
