Description
Was out checking some of my nearby GC caches after being advised that one was missing. Found out it wasn't so used the replacement Ammo box here.
The views from the rock are of a different direction than those of the my nearby GC cache Talbot.
Cache is a short distance away from the rock with the view.
CAUTION: The short track down to the rock from the track into the area is not recommended for low 2wd vehicles. (Park at S31 58.160 E 116 35.490 if you do not want to risk the short drive down to the rock.)

Left home early this morning for a cache run in the hills with hhheddy
This being #11 out of 15 finds for the day, zero DNF.
Well hidden, required extra search effort. Thank you Chwiliwr!

Finally after all this time I mangage to get out this way for some caching. This turned out to be really well hidden and if it were not for my faith in the coordinates I wouldnt have found it.
Thanks for the challenge

Headed out for a day of exploring the bush around Mt Observation, this was one of the caches we found along the way... We drove past this spot on the way to "Talbot" & thought there has to be a cache here? So we fired up the GCA app & noticed this listing 
We had lunch & backtracked to this one... We had to sit & wait for the storm that was now overhead, before making our way over to GZ. Would love to have said this one was a quick find, but it was not to be... We searched for some time & were nearly going to give-up when Jase eventually found the well hidden prize.

Another great spot for a cache, hope to come back this way again soon.

The track in was a little rough but I managed to get in OK, would have been better if I had better ground clearance, took it slow and steady. Found the cache shortly after arriving at ground zero. Nice spot to stop and have snack. Went onto the other nearby caches.
Thanks for the cache.
