Found while out checking the area after a storm went through. Popped up here to check that there was no lightning strikes. Im actually a volunteer firefighter.
I had a few hours in between shifts, and Im nowhere near home- so figured Id go a hunting for some smilies TFTC & the beautiful view- even on a very average day.
A beautiful view indeed.Despite looking in the obvious location multiple times, somehow we missed it. Eventually, after ruling everything else out, we returned to discover the cache exactly where we looked first. Doh!Thanks Gonefishen07 for getting us up here to admire this scene.Chiefton!!!
Did not find this yesterday and returned today again definitely not at any tree base great view though.
On the way home from our annual Easter camping trip with the family at Cape Paterson. I decided to do it on alternate route home. Absolutely wonderful view here true to the name of the cache in excellent condition enjoying the great ambience. Thanks for the cache
Finally on my way home but just one more cache. Misty today but can imagine the glory of this view on a clear day

Out for a drive and check out some new areas with some cache. Great views. Thanks to the cache owner for placing the cache.
After a few other DNFs on my travels here this morning it was nice to stop between showers and admire the view, while also finding the cache of course! TFTC!
I found this one while out for a ride on my motorbike today.
I've been meaning to grab this one for a while now but every time I come passed there has been someone sitting at the table having a picnic and enjoying the fantastic view. I finally had the place to myself this morning and it was a quick find as some of the camouflage seemed to have been knocked away.
Signed the log, re-hid the cache and on my way to the next one.

With the price of fuel dropping after the fuel excess was reduced, time to head down Bass - Woolamai way for a drive. Can't see fuel prices ever going down again, so no better time than today. Even if the weather wasn't the best, and the wind picked up with a drizzle while out caching.
The title of this one is accurate, and for the first find of day at 9 am, it was certainly a lovely spot to start the day.

Found with lid half off a bit in tbe open. Replaced according to hint. Great view! Thanks.
After a short search Grub62 and I were able to find the cache as described and in good condition. Then to enjoy the views and discuss life with the friendly locals (cattle). NTNL and TFTC.
Out with Bunadoorian finding caches down this way. What great views from GZ. Loved that the cattle just looked at us with a " nothing happening here" look. TFTC Gonefishen07
We stopped off to search for this cache on passing by today. The cache was quickly located and log book signed. Thanks so much for the cache and for having bought us to this very nice viewpoint. Greetings from Zimbabwe
Me and the other half decided to go for a drive on this beautiful day as we both had the day off. We hopped in the car and followed our nose, heading up into the hills. When we got to this lovely lookout we decided to have a bit of a stop and checkout the magnificent views. I have had a very very dry spell without finding any caches for quite a long time now, in fact this is my first cache for 2019. A few weeks ago I had mentioned to hubby that I should get started again before the slithering creatures return too much. As I went to hop back in the car, I noticed a zip lock bag with what looked like a couple of disposable gloves sitting on the ground and suddenly it occurred to me that it looked like some geocaching paraphenalia and that this spot was a very likely spot to have a cache. I grabbed my phone and fired up the geocaching app which I have not used for so long, and sure enough, there was one only a few meters away. I was very nervous about snakes seeing as it was a warmish day, but I did not stumble on any snakes, just a nice geocache to bring my total to 264, after an extremely long hiatus. TNLN TFTC
Well the gps had me going from one tree to another. Finally it settledand there it was. Cache is in good condition. Beautiful view.
I had been working in Wonthaggi all day and was on my way back to Melbourne... by "not the most direct" route... hoping to find some caches along the way. After my first two attempts came up , I was pleased to now be at 3 for the afternoon... even if I did have to wait out a muggles that stopped here at the same time I did.
Thanks **Gonefishen07** for putting this cache here.

Since moving from New Zealand in 2016 I have been enjoying the area, exploring and finding caches.
So far I’ve knocked off 4 of the states. VIC, SA, NSW and A.C.T all multiple times.
No two areas are the same here and almost every place I go to is stunning. The beauty of caching is that it takes you to so many places you would never usually find.
Thank you to all the cachers out there for hiding and maintaining their caches. Especially to those who put so much effort into creating unique and fun hides.
I enjoy finding well maintained caches in fun and unique cache containers. No one likes finding a mint tin – but a find is a find after all.
I’m currently working on a Project-GC challenge to get the average word count on my logs over 200 words.
So please ignore the rest of this log as it is just nonsense and song lyrics.
Well she was an American girl
Raised on promises
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
Was a little more to life
Somewhere else
After all it was a great big world
With lots of places to run to
Yeah, and if she had to die
Tryin' she, had one little promise
She was gonna keep
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Well, It was kind of cold that night
She stood alone on her balcony
She could hear the cars roll by
Out on 441
Like waves crashin' on the beach
And for one desperate moment there
He crept back in her memory
God it's so painful, when
Something that's so close
And still so far out of reach
Oh yeah, all right
Take it easy baby
Make it last all night
She was an American girl
Well I'm a-runnin' down the road try'n to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind
Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me
One says she's a friend of mine
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand, and take it easy
Well, I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
Such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flat-bed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win, though we will never be here again
So open up I'm climbin' in, so take it easy
Well, I'm a runnin' down the road tryin' to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover, she's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy
Come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
Oh, we got it easy
We oughta take it easy
Thanks Gonefishen07

A different route for the trip home resulted in a few finds late in the afternoon. Plenty of nice views throughout this area, so many hills and so many cows. Thanks for the cache Gonefishen07.

Staying nearby in a tiny house for the night. Stopped here to turn around and admire the view and low and behold, a lovely little cache. Thanks Gonefishen07

Last stop on our way home.
Not much of a view at this time of night, unless you look up.
The sky is so clear and the stars so bright.
You simply don't get to see them like this in Chadstone.
Thank you for the Beautiful View GoneFishen07

On a clear day could possibly see two of my caches from up here.
GC7GJGB - Intertidal Lookout in Corinella and GC77C7Y - Hazel Pomaderris out on French Island.
Tonight all we could see were lights in farmhouses and nearby towns and the stars above.
A Beautiful end to a wonderful day.
Thanks Leesa.

Thank you, i love it when geocaching brings you to places like this, as, for the most part, they are just about getting numbers up. Found with tb142 and kezza 1211
WOW What an amazing view... on the way to Phillip island as Mr Bambi is taking me on a romantic day out for my b'day. Nice quick find. SL TNLN TFTC
Beautiful view from up here even in the dark, with lots of twinkling lights in the distance. We added our own light in the form of a torch and soon had the cache in hand. SL TFTC
What fantastic views. As the weather is not great this morning, it took a while for me to realise I was looking at ocean and not sky! TFTC Gonefishen07

On the way to Phillip Island with Happy pants for a few days of caching fun.
We got here just at the right time, the sun was just setting over the western port bay. Got some great pixs!
Cheers for the cache

Out for a few caches with my close geo bud omegaman1971 grabbing a few smilies on our way to Phillip Island and we made the most of grabbing few caches along the back roads before hitting the highway. When we pulled up at the gz we had another muggle taking a few pictures and it was omegaman that struck up a conversation while l hung back and made a quick easy find, l then used the natural cover to sign the log and then joined them in taking some truly beautiful views, many thanks Gonefishen07 for the hide and for bringing us here.
My caching has been a bit quiet lately, but I have no work today so a caching mission is on. This a very nice part of Victoria that I usually just drive through on the way to Phillip Island.
Nice easy find, the view though..... wow

A quick and easy find as we cache our way through the area today. Not much of a view today with the poor weather, bit it would be pretty good on a clear day. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Geowife did a horse ride nearby and we came back to take in the view which was spectacular today. Cache found within a short while. The log book is just on full and will need a replacement. We managed to find a spot to sign. All back safe. Excellent country up here and worth the visit. Thanks
Heading home after a morning caching on Phillip Island and stopped off here for the last cache of the day.
Thanks Gonefishen07 fot another placement here.

Find #993. It really is a beautiful view here, how lucky are the residents. It is very windy here today so naturally the GPS wouldn't settle. Found cache in a common place. Thanks Gonefishen07 for the great view and the cache.
Found with Sixy2Sue while on a singing camp at Grantville Lodge.

Beautiful day beautiful view lots of cyclists. I keep driving past but never have time to stop
Windy day - car door slamming on knee day- ouch! Easy find. Log book very full. Needs replacing.
