Decided to revisit the area. Muggle decided to take a turn toooo soon.....would not have got far as there was no entry to this spot. Did spot an echidna just wondering up the embarkment minding its business unaware that we were there. Finally a DNF is now a smiley. TFTC
We found it!!!! The hint wasn't very helpful but we eventually found it when dad accidentally kicked it. The entire area was covered in rubbish which made the finding a lot more tricky mistaking it for trash. It was more closer to a micro than small altogether great spot and fun find. We filled it with a couple trinkets.
Found almost anything else but the cache. A tad disappointed on not finding this one
I have my brother visiting this this week, hoping all will be in good order soon.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
With 2 pairs of eyes searching, the cache could not be found. Hope it was just us not seeing well or maybe it is missing. Thanks anyway, it was a great view.
Found with FerocoiusFlea on a last minute planned geocaching day trip

Introduced Trooper Tracker to Geocaching. Hope this can be his first find. Good luck TT!!
Nice quick find here today. Impressive stonework and a great historical tie into the area. Thanks for the cache and the history lesson.
A quick find while being shown around by muggle friends, fantastic views from here

Just returned from my holiday and catching up on the logs from my fantastic trip. A quick find as we pulled of the road. Had the unfortunate experience of watching a beached humpback across the road who didn't look like he was going to survive the night. Signed log. Thanks
Another cache on a successful day of both caching and sightseeing down in this part of the state.
Thanks mogni
Thanks mogni
Came for a drive to the Mount from Beachport and ended up at Port Mac and Nelson as well on a lovely day.
Interesting history here. [^]

staying at nelson for a couple of nights and did a day trip out here along the coast. nice views.
Found at 1010. Been In Mount Gambier for few days now with only a couple left.. As normal I found the most difficult way to the GZ only to find a whole car park right beside the cache and I found the cache as well. TFTC.
Spoke to the lovely CO and replaced this cache for her. A great location!
Talk about déjà vu ..... this is the second weekend in a row that I have been on a girls caching road trip with Locus Cache to Victoria. This time however it was a fabulous 4 day jaunt AND we may have even brought back a lovely Victorian fella with us (micaparamedic).....ALWAYS an enjoyable time when we hang out!
Kaye and I travelled from Adelaide to the beautiful Warrnambool area to attend a Friday night picnic in the park event and then on Saturday we enjoyed a yummy BBQ lunch at the 1 month to the Surf Coast Mega Event. Bendigo was our next overnight stop and then we headed home....which only took us 15 HOURS!! haha It wasn't the Little Desert National Park we got lost in this weekend, it was Murray Sunset National Park...LOL - but we did get a joint first to find which made the detour all worth it....who needs to get 8hours sleep before needing to be at work the next day anyway??
We targeted a number of caches over the weekend, including some oldies of Alex...very cool finding original ammo cans in the bush and some to help out the D/T grid!
Once again the conversations were highly amusing and we enjoyed lots of belly laughter!! haha [:o)]
We saw kangaroos, emus, lots of birds and a whole heap of water due to recent heavy rains.
GEOCACHING ROCKS!!! [:X]

Day 1 of the girls' road trip to Warrnambool, which then extended out to Bendigo on day 3. On day 4 we picked up another passenger for Harry as the new passenger needed a lift to Adelaide.
Today we drove from Adelaide to Warrnambool, arriving in time to attend the Sunset Picnic Event - Tower Hill [^]
The day was mainly spent driving as it takes a tad longer when the Hary Factor comes into play
Some older caches were targeted and some great views were seen as a result! [^]
No DNFs [^], 1 event attended in an amzingly gorgeous location and 19 caches found today
We arrived, we wandered to GZ and we looked and looked. No cache was found
The CO was contacted and the cache was replaced very close to the hint!
It's great to find an older Mogni cache

Travelling on holiday with Purrfect Di, son Alex, geoson Sebastbat and Jack the monkey.
Sadly this was not to be.
Kids loved the tower though.
A bit of rubbish around GZ, but someone has been around it with a mower/slasher and
there's a good chance GZ was mown down [:(!]
Thanks for the challenge mogni
will place on the watch list and return asap!

Nice drive but very windy, the ocean was incredibly rough and the bay being so smooth was quite a contrast.

Thought I'd give this ago given the recent smiley but was unable to locate here TFTH
Think this one is gone as it appears someone used the toilet here (eek). The usual Pi,e of rocks is there minus the cache
GeoAJ went to hunt the cache out while GeoTM took in the views and grabbed a few photos. Great history here and an interesting place to visit. TFTC
An interesting spot to visit, we went around and around to the top to read the information before hunting the cache. Thanks for the hunt this afternoon
Called in a checked this one..... other than needing a new plastic bag for log book all was good, but replaced anyhow
Finally found the cache. Took abit of time but worth to find it. The weather is very beautiful, abit cold but nice.
Lovely drive from Mt Gambier to find this cache. Stunning coastline and strong winds today.
