I think Im in the right place (and Im using the hint) but I cant find a micro here. Maybe its missing since its almost a year since it was last found

This location is famous for the views from the dunny. Try it, leave the door open and have a seat. Was only stopping hear for an early lunch before heading to Helena JABs.

On a 3 night hike from Dale Rd to Mundaring on the Bibbulmun Track. This campsite lives up to all I’ve heard about it. Just magical. Thanks for placing a cache here dead_reckoning. It’s a beautiful spot. Now can’t wait for the sunset!

We were out for a weekend on the mountain bikes, and decided to ride to Waalegh hut for an overnighter. We took all the fire roads to get here, not the Bibbulmun track! Wow, quite a hill getting up here, but awesome views from here.

There were plenty of people at the hut tonight, but luckily a lot of them had tents so we were able to get a bunk.

Great experience, and I found the cache without too much trouble after looking at the size. Before that I spent a bit of time looking around the rocks for a small or regular sized cache.

Thanks for the hide dead_reckoning!

Over from NSW to complete bibbulmun track end to end Day 4. Miss a lot of caches due to poor reception. Thanks for the cache

Thank you! I went on a hike over the long weekend with the Bibbulmun Track Foundation. We walked from the Perth Hills Discovery Centre to Brookton Highway, and I took the opportunity to look for a cache or two on the way. We stopped here for lunch on the second day, having camped at Helena the night before. The views here were wonderful and even more enjoyable when signing a cache log.

Quick find for day 2 of our Bibbulmun track expedition over the weekend. Mundaring to Brookton highway
 
01-Oct-16
Day one of our three day Bibbulmun hike and an over night stop at this great location. This was the 4th cache of the day after a 18km walk in rain and at times hail. Still the skies cleared enough for a spectacular sunset.
Thanks very much for putting the cache here.

It was a wet soggy day up in the hills today, so what better to do with our time than go for a bit of a drive in the bush... We have become quite familiar with the tracks in the area & knew that we could get pretty close to this one by car, but much to our surprise we found a small little track in & we managed to drive right up to the hut Big Grin I headed towards the cache, whilst the rest of the family checked out the campsite & the spectacular view Smile

Thanks for bringing us here dead_reckoning, loved the serenity of this spot! Hope to come back again one day [^] Cache was found quickly & was in top condition.

Stopped the night at the hut. Waited till the morning to sit and look at the view with a coffee. Always a beautiful spot.

Thanks for the cache.

The hint certainly helps as the phone took us a few meters away. We surprised 4 people who were settling in for the night, thought we were travelling "light". Must be a great location to spend a night.
TFTC and a special place to visit.

Stopped here for Lunch on Day 2 of our Hike from Mundaring to Mt Dale.

We'd caught up with a group of hikers that were just ahead of us from Helena Campsite. One of the members asked us if we were into Geocaching and we got on to talking about this cache. there was about 4 of us hunting around the camp site looking for this cache which was eventually spotted by Lady Pilot. We all signed the Log book and returned the Cache to its hide.

The view was splendid even though visibility was somewhat shortened by the rain.

After a hot meal and a considerable amount of psyching up to go on, we set off towards the next campsite for the evening.

This is my favourite hut up this end of the track. It was a beautiful still night. Found the cache easily, thanks to the hint. Thanks for the cache.

Found on day two of a hike from Mt Dale to Mundaring. The cache was nice and easy to find and is at at a great spot!. We were still getting our breath back when in strolled a couple from the UK. He was 67 and his wife was 72, they had come from the Ball Creek hut.!!..As were to find out over the next TWO days, thats quite a tough trek to make with full camping kit on your back, in one day...WOW..we were both very impressed, and somewhat shamed at just how knackered we felt. (I was with my muggle brother in law)
It was their third trek end to end...amazing!
Another elderly walker arrived after, plus a German lad, plenty of room for all. we went to the camp spot just down from the hut, what a great spot...many thanks for the cache here.

Went back and signed the log. The very strange man had gone thank goodness.

I just realised that this must count as an FTF !!
First one for a long time. Smile
At the time I signed it I just thought there must have been a new log left after an old one was filled up.
 
14-Dec-08
I didn't sign the log as there was a very strange man staying here who thought I "shouldn't touch anything as there were too many people on the track now destroying everything". His hiking equipment consisted of a pair of thongs and a bottle of shampoo! I left fairly quickly.
