had a couple of attempts at zeroing this one in and it brought me to the same spot each time. conducted a thorough search but no luck
This was found by remote control by my sister after a year of searching.
She signed it Amstrad Kid
Maybe its still there

Please note that we found this cache, obviously still wedged in the same spot but in 2 pieces and log was waterlogged after last night's heavy rains.
Found this cache but sorry to say that it is in dire need of maintenance after last night's rains. We couldn't write our name on the log as it was saturated and the container's base was separate from the top. We left it closed up as best we could where we found it.
Took a few seconds but found it in no time. Found with Mama Bear of 3 brown bears and Steicke family
Have to start with a smile coz it's so cool.
I've lived down here for a lot of my life (grew up then went away and then came back) but have never actually climbed this rock. My son had a great time and lost interest in the actual find as there was so much to see. Love the hide. You are very sneaky Mr C.
Thanks for a great hide. Kate, Shaun and Chad
This was a really big rock. And it was a really little cache, perfectly sized to fit into my mouth! . TFTC Mr Cruznoz.
A short walk followed by a bit of a jump resulted in some fantastic views and we wished we'd brought the camera! Found the cache almost straight away. TFTC.
Great fun! How long have I lived here and never been up that rock? Too long. Thanks for the motivation.
Visiting from the UK with my brother, enjoyed the clamber over the rocks and the views, thanks for bringing us here.
Our first for the day, Another day where we have decided to stay in Albany 'just 1 more day" TFTC
BRILLIANT cache container - this was a pleasure to find, plus running into some muggle friends from high school added to the day. TFTC
Love the camo job for this one. Thanks to bluecompass for putting the muggles at ease and successfully retrieving the cache. TFTH.
TFTC First strike Mrs Alpha unit. Great way to start our caching day with the Wandering Frogs, Wandering Wally's and Shamberlee.
I have been up to the lookout, but it must have been 30 or more years ago. Since moving back to town 8 years ago I have always wanted to take the kids up there for a look. Well today was the day and with Geo-Micky and Geo-Joey we bounded up enjoyed the view and had the quickest find we've had on a Cruznoz cache. Thanks for taking us back to this wonderful place.
A very nice view from the top of the rock.
Very cute cache container too - just watch out for Clean Up Australia Day!
Thanks, Robmc.

The sky was getting very dark bruised look with rain on the way.
We ate our remaining lunch while we logged this tiny cache in this attractive expanse
of rock.

Found by Jazn8 the son of Cruznoz. This one was lucky to still be here after the rain tricky container.
First time I had stopped here for a wander around. Beautiful Albany day , suns out light breeze awesome spot for a geocache.
A very clever cache Mr Cruznoz thinking outside the square ,not sure what I was looking for to be honest but that was different to what I expected.

Clever cache second time back, found it! Great view for the shows fireworks if you're in the neighborhood.
This was a great cache in more ways than one! The views from GZ were magnificent, we also found two very well fed Cunningham Skink's (at least that's what we call them in Vic but ours are not as black.)) The cache on the other hand was a different matter we searched for nearly half an hour before declaring there was nowhere else it could be. Then Diane had one more look in an area I had already looked and had the great cache in hand.
Thanks for showing us this location and the neat cache hide.

This is a beautiful location with wonderful 360 degree views of Albany. Great camo too - we were baffled for a couple of minutes at ground zero, but then the youngest member of the crew came up with the find rather unexpectedly, and we all oohed and aahed over the impressive camo! Marvellous cache, and fantastic location, TFTC!
We were heading back to Perth but thought that we would clean up a few of the nearby trads that we hadn't got around to doing over the weekend. We climbed up the hard way, found the cache (very nicely done) and returned back to our car taking a longer but less steep route. TFTH
Beautful view from up there! Thank you
This cache was found as part of the ABCD Challenge

Awesome view on top...Ms Bushies2 found it after Mr Bushies2 ignored it...another clever camo by Cruznoz. Thanks.
i must admit Cruz that one seemed a little too easy mate, maybe its because it wasn't as well camoed as your first ones we did but was fun all the same.

A nice place but too much Trash... Clever hide - a new one for us - what will people think of next?? Although be careful, as there is a lot of glass shards on the ground and not good for Geo doggy paws. TFTH
Not knowing the area, I took a while to find where to park. When I arrived at GZ, I enjoyed the view and sitting to write in the log was magnificent.

The biggest problem was how to get up on the rock, it was very slippery in spots due to the damp conditions. Once on top I found the easy way up, never one to do things the easy way. The cache was quickly in hand and the log signed. Please note the log book is wet and going mouldy. Thanks for the great camo on the cache.
great view from this rock, found by geo daughters friend after we had been looking for 15min, she said "is this it?"
Very clever - was about to give up and it caught my eye.....if that is how hard you make them I will never be able to find the one at fountain lake! the gps was showing it about 2 metres away although not sure about the granite infleunce
This was a great one. Loved it. Snr windybindy found this. Thanks for the wonderful views. Nearly went for a slip over the edge but caught myself. Signed the log TFTC
Ha ha very clever. Haven't seen a micro like this before and was suitably impressed. Put it back where we found it.
Easy find as had done this one as part of kiwis_in_oz team. Was in slightly different place to back then but see in the logs that it had drifted to the wrong place! Made sure I put it back where I picked it up from!!
What a great camo this would have to be up there with the best that we have done. SL TFTC
After a report that the cache was gone, I called by today for a look. It is still there but not in it's original position. I found it about 3 metres away. This cache for some reason seems to be prone to cache creep as I have repositioned it several times before. Anyway, it's back where it should be now.
Kids went for a play on the rocks today and having found it previously they had a look for the cache but reckon it is gone - not definate, but that's what the kids think... just to let you know.
This was a tricky one for us as we are new to caching!! Picked up the cache thinking it was a piece of rubbish!! Took gps a while to send me in the right direction. It kept taking me to different sides of the rock but we got there eventually.
Thanks
Thanks
Found GZ easy enough but the cache was a little further astray and burnt!!!! Some delightful characters have set light to what little there is to burn and melted the cache. Good news is the logs are legible but the container is not useable. Have collected the logs and will contact the cache owner. Would suggest this one be disabled for a while. Thanks for taking us to a great spot just the same. SL (whats left of it )
Found with Geokid who continues to amaze with his climbing skills. Almost distrubed one of the local residents in the bargain (little blue tongue sunning himself).
Thanks for the cache and the views.

Found a few moments to squeeze a cache in and decided on this one. Great views.

I checked on the cache today. A small amount of "cache creep" had crept in so I placed it back in it's spot in full view.
May I suggest the owner check on this cache location. See my log entry. Please contact me if information is needed as to where we placed the cache.
After having spent quite a lot of the last two weeks climbing over granite moniliths in the wheatbelt region we felt quite comfortable seeking the cache at this location. We enjoyed the views and the cleverly constructed cache. Bruce took note of all the details as I think he aims to replicate your creative work. Thanks Cruznoz

Top location with great views. Found GZ quickly but no cache in "plain sight". Calypso62 widened the search area & found cache container - NOT in plain sight. SL & returned cache to where we thought it should be. Refer to Calypso62 log. Perhaps a bit of TLC required. TFTC

Found this cache while on hols from Sydney. Geotooter and I searched and searched for this one but kept coming up empty. We widened our search area and I eventually found it in a place where I feel confident it was not supposed to be. Where I found it, it was not in "plain sight". Anyway, signed the log and returned it to a location close to where our GPSr was indicating GZ. I must admit, I did like the container!!

A quick easy find. Signed log and replaced on a very windy day.

We arrived around 0800 and it was drizzling and quite slippery on the rock. We had seen this feature on many occasions when travelling along North Road, but never checked it out. Didn't take long for geo hubby to spot the excellent camo. Thanks for the excuse to finally check out Bluff Rock.
Kids were very impressed with the camo - nice one! Dog enjoyed the run too!
Thanks

Very clever and would of walked over it many times before we sat near by and spotted it.

Nice camo. We both used to play on these rocks as young kids many years ago. It was nice to revisit and actually enjoy the outlook which we wouldn’t have appreciated back then.
