Quite an easy walk, as ling as you watch your feet on rocks and roots.Beautiful view and a seat after about 250metres was a nice quick rest break to admire the views !Nice sized cache !Fav point for the gorgeous view !Tftc

Quick find and cool container. Awesome viewTFTC

This was part of my 4 days headed northbound on the Cape to Cape and grabbing some caches along the way.

Definitely a favourite cache on the Cape to Cape, the view here is stunning and ammo boxes are always a winner, everything a cache should be.
Took Kopiko coffee lolly, left FP

Thanks to all the cache owners who placed these caches and maintain them, it made my hike alot more fun

Thanks for bringing us here to this magnificent view. Cache needs a new logbook

Found with the MR cub scouts, thanks for the cache

Beautiful spot. With GrantZpoolman and a couple of our geokids

Zpoolman tftc

Thanks for the adventure

Great lookout. Thanks for bringing us here.

The log is very full.

Call me a scaredy cat but I actually found this a tad scary as it is so open and high up. Maybe the emus looking like they were about to charge was the thing. Great walk. Loving day 2 of the C2C. TFTC.

It was in a awesome spot and had a beautiful view of the ocean. TFTC

Nice to have survived the fire...where others haven't. Tftc and tnln. HOTA

Great spot!

Magical afternoon out with friends to this magical spot.

Down in Bunbury for WAGB hoovering up a bunch of caches to help clear the map of the green dots.

Had a great, albeit long day. Thanks to the COs for their caches.

Highlight of the day was chasing down these Cape 2 Cape caches. Some beautiful and majestic coastline.

Day 4 of WAGB22 week. More fun around Bunbury, and some 4x4 driving to get some way south of the Cape to Cape Walk. This involved, driving, walking and some jogging.

Solid day but not a great haul. 1 FTF, 23 finds and 1 DNF. Plus 20 Adventure Labs.

Thanks to all the CO for their hides.

Down in the south for WAGB, making the most of an additional day and prior to any commitments for events.

Made a good range of finds for the day from Mandurah through to Augusta prior to calling it a night and basing myself in Bunbury.

Thanks to all the COs for newly published or freshly maintained caches I’m sure your inboxes will soon be full!

Day 1 Heading down to Bunbury for WAGB22, collecting smilies as we go, with only a couple of dnfs . Happy to say that this was one of them .. Thanks to all the COs for placing and maintaining their caches for others to find , tftc

Day 1 Left at the crack of dawn to head down to WAGB22 caching along the way. Thanks to the COs for keeping us entertained along the road to Bunbury. Apologies for the generic log.

Yay
A cache that didn’t burn to a crisp! Pen isn’t working and I forgot to bring one got a pic of the cache if you need CO.

The container was perfect to survive the bush fire! Thank you for the spectacular views

Found with DropBear and KingJarrah. Thanks for the cache!

Thanks for your help Donna

Amazing trail and view, great spot for a cache. Cheers for the find

Tftc so beautiful

Quick find tftc

Great views and an amazing walk..scudding showers at the start and then the rain cleared..windy but awesome..cache and log in excellent condition tftc

What a magnificent view!!!

On the Edgewalkers Cape to Cape weekend quickie! TFTC....converted a couple of muggles into cachers!!

Another day in Australia. This time we went to Hamelin Bay to feed the rays. And on Cave Road, it's on Margret River. Thank you for the caches we were able to find along the road.

Amazing view! TFTC, Dee-Kay

Der Cache eignet sich perfekt für einen kleinen Abendspaziergang.

Danke sagen HunttheHunters & Missy.

Special spot for a geocache. Thanks

Great spot! TFTC!

Stunning location, thanks for bringing us here! TFTC

Wow what a view

Easy find

Out with cullum68 to grab a few caches from the area while here thanks for the cache

Day 4 walking the Cape to Cape track . Over from NSW for 6 weeks bush walking. Thankyou for the cache

A perfect wheater for an walk on the cap to cap trail. very nice view from GZ. Everything is fine...TFC

Found this morning after camping at Conto. Was a lovely walk with many bees working hard around us. Saw a pod of dolphins playing about in the reef below. Was a little disappointed about needing to trample the vegetation for cache retrieval. Spotted plenty of beaut spots that a container this size would fit. Thanks for the adventure!

Found this one together with Schnex on our Cape to Cape hike.
Thanx
Struep

Struep and me turned this one into a found on our fourth day of the Cape to Cape Track

Thanks,
Schnex

a smily after obeying the directions enjoying the vista along the way TFTC TNLN

Great veiw! Great find.

I walked the Cape to Cape Track over the past week and picked up a few geocaches along the way. This one was a reasonably straightforward find, being in an obvious spot close to the coordinates. Thank you R0gue for installing and maintaining this cache.

Had a great walk this morning along the cape to cape trail at Conto's. Found the cache, in good condition. Amazing views.

One of my favs! Thank you so much for an awesome cache. All in good nik

Awesome views from the track again, quick find at GZ. TFTH

Fnd on Day 4 of Cape to Cape Trek N>S - spectacular views - TFTC

Coordinates changed from:

Coordinates changed to:
S 34° 4.735 E 115° 0.295

Distance from original: 106.6 feet or 32.5 meters.

Thanks so much to Barrikon for moving this cache to a better location for me. It's great that all the scrub has grown back since I placed the original cache, and the new location should be easier to reach for cachers.

Enjoy the journey and the views!

This area is the most beautiful area I have visited. The view was stunning. The beach was an amazing colour and weather perfect.

GZ did not match these sentiments. I stomped, got spiked, scratched and even snuck up on by muggles. Eventually I had the cache in hand. With knowledge of CO's note I grabbed it and decided to relocate it.

It is still a small off track expedition but the cache is now located in an easy to access area and out of muggle activity. CO has been advised of the new location and I will allow her to alter the listing.

TFTC and bringing me here. If could give more then 1 fav I would. Amazing.

After the visite to the Mammoth Cave we go to the Red Gate for a part of the cape to cape trail to Contos. It was beautifull en sometimes real adventure, we liked this trail.
Greetings from the Nethetlands

We take a short time and cann't find the cache. We saw at home, this cache is find for a long time ago.

Spent 20 mins looking with no luck. Quite thick scrub off the track.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your feedback regarding the location of the cache. I agree with you, and will look at moving it next time I'm down that way. Alternatively, if someone else would like to move it to a better spot and notify me of the new co-ords along with a spoiler picture that would be great.

The reason for the current location is that when I placed this cache a fire had recently been through the entire area, and there was zero vegetation anywhere, and this pile of rocks was the only place to hide an ammo tin.

Cheers,
Steff

TFTC but guys do not take the hint srsly it's a little bit off but it is still worth finding and it's got the best view EVER!!!

Absolutely spectacular location, and one of my favourite stretches of the Cape to Cape walk. However I wasn't excited about the fact that GZ was 20 metres off the track. I did the necessary bushbashing needed to get somewhere near ground zero, but couldn't make the find; I wasn't terribly impressed at this point, because there's really no need to have this cache so far from the trail. I did a brief search but time wasn't on my side, and couldn't make the find within 5 minutes, and didn't want to destroy the vegetation unnecessarily or waste too much time. I've since checked other logs and see that several other geocachers have expressed similar concerns about this cache. Might I respectfully suggest a slight relocation; surely it's possible to find a suitable hiding place closer to the track, or in a spot with a more obvious trail leading to the cache? I was really quite disappointed not to find this cache, especially considering the effort required to get here.

Great views.

Found it yay!

Beautiful scenery!

Wandered in from our campsite at Contos to find this one! An amazing view with huge schools of fish visible from the cliff top! We sat there and waited for the sun to finish coming up and hit the water, very spectacular, a favourite point for sure!

Great view watching the surfers no sharks to be seen

What an amazing location for a cache. Long pants recommended though! TFTC

Tftc really enjoyed looking for this one and the gob smacking view on the cape to Cape.

Nice walk along the Cape to Cape track. The last 30m not nice as I was in shorts and flip flops. Not the best for walking thru the scrub at the GZ. Came out scratched and bleeding. No obvious track to the cache.

TFTC Thank you for going to the effort of hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity. Impressive scrub to GZ

Nice spot with awesome views TFTC. All in good condition.

Worth all the scratches awesome view

Out and about with pprass and &0thers for a day of caching while free camping at conto, brilliant. Enjoying checking out some local highlights. This was our first cache for the and what a great little walk. The views are amazing. and we can even see wild flowers coming out. It was disappointing that we needed to tramp down the flora to find the cache. Thanks for bringing us here

A nice walk along the coast with pprass & xambo4u was rewarded with a cache. Pity we trampled on bush to find it. Thanks for the cache ROgue.

Found at 10:27 AM GAFF1 in the company of xambo4u and &others.
We set up camp at Conto's Quenda site last night and in the morning started our exploration of the cape. Loved the scenery and walk along he track - so many wild flowers about.
Not so pleased though that we then had to go so far into the bush - so many plants and bushes were damaged
Thanks R0gue.

Tftc

First find for new friends.

Outstanding views from the limestone cliffs.TFTC

3:37:00 PM. After a few chores at camp we decided on a walk. We had been told about the trail so off we went. Not a bad walk to here but GZ was more off the trail than we realised. Found after a good search and signed log. Couldn't believe a person was surfing by himself here. Thanks R0gue for placing this cache.

Had a lovely morning walk from Contos campground, where we are being volunteer camp hosts. Beautiful day after the recent heat. Love this bit of coast. TFTC.

At the moment I'm on a work and travel backpacking year through the world. Most of the time I'll spend in Australia and I'm trying to solve my 365 days of caching challenge during this trip. The chance of having a moving home zone should be takes, as it will make the challenge so much easier.

After a nice day at this amazing beach next to the cache I made a stop here. I started a great parcour run via the Cape to Cape track and after some Bush bashing I found the box fairly easy.

TFTC and greetings from Germany

Happy Australia Day. To tHe person who invented gators and walking poles, God bless you! Lots of low prickly bushes to get around. Log book full; needs replacing.

Did the Cape to Cape walk from here to Redgate, and only realized after the fact that there was a cache on the ridge here. We must have walked right by it at some stage! Fantastic views of Conto's Beach from here, stunning section of trail, and certainly a must-visit place! If ever I get opportunity to return (which I hope I will), I'll remember to do the cache next time.

Lovely walk between Conto’s and Bob’s Hollow – great views – well worth the effort, and you can do a couple of caches on the way.

I found this log on my gps not yet published, sorry for being so late! We took some time while in WA to spend 4 days walking along the Cape to Cape track and finding some great spots and caches along the way. What amazing wildflowers this year and great views all along the coast. Another great R0gue cache to add to the fun of the walk, TFTC

12:30 We have sampled several sections of the Cape to Cape track including the short walk we took from the road to this cache. It has not been logged for a while and is in good condition. Stunning views from around here and we had the perfect day to admire them while enjoying lunch. TFTC

Great day us two girls had today, just us, the Prado, our gps's and a healthy dose of enthusiasm. Though my companions enthusiasm was waning a bit by the time we got here. Not like her at all. But she obliged me and made the trek. Talk about awesome views. So happy we made the effort of coming out here. Fav from me for this one ROgue

I was considering chickening out of attempting this cache as I had already done more than my share of exercise for the day, however I had my arm twisted and off we set. And I was very happy I did, as this was a fantastic walk with incredible views. And no bush bashing at all - well except for the last 20m or so, which was a bit of a concern. However the great sized cache was soon spotted, the log signed, and off again to admire some more views on the way back.
Left my pathtag. Thanks for the cache R0gue.

A long walk with daisylawson but when we got there it was a fast find

Couldn't find it after looking in the bush for awhile. Lovely view though so it didn't matter.

Found whilst walking the Cape to Cape Track with my Dad over 8 days. The walk was thoroughly enjoyable and a worthwhile item to tick off my bucket list. The 'caches during the walk were the second batch that Dad has found with me and he is now looking at buying his own GPSR as a new convert to the hobby. TNLN TFTC.

A beautiful place cheers

Nice walk out to the cache, all dry in good condition. Tftc

After looking at the coordinates and enough destroyed vegetation here and at "Bob's Secret Hollow", I decided not to search for this one, so DNF for me.

Found[Time to Find: 7 min]

A day out caving, 4WD'ing, caching and BEER. Great walk into GZ along with Hutchowie and Muggles Jess & Sarah. TFTC. Took TB, Like to say left only footprints but the bush bash near GZ stopped that, and SL.

first to find in 2014. a nice walk along the cape to cape with friends

Beautiful coastline - could look at the ocean for ever
