Lovely little spot to stop with some interesting history to learn. Coordinates were about 6m out for us though. Thanks for the cache and thanks to those who have helped maintain it.
Returned to this interesting area this morning and have replaced the cache on the CO's behalf.
TFTC fairwaydrivers this is find #15191 for us.

Thanks fairwaydrivers. I took the long way to the coast to get an easy cache.. Nice little place and all is well with the cache.
The doctor was in at Frankland.

A very pretty spot, but unfortunately closed to cars when we came. No stopping us though!
Cache was sitting on the ground, I saw the likely spot it was.
Enjoying the drive from Bremer Bay to Margaret River.
Thanks for the hide

WOW! what a gem of a spot and the history is fascinating. Had we know prior to coming here and read the full cache description we would have been better prepared for a picnic lunch. A great spot.
The cache was fully exposed out in the open as we replaced it in the spot we thought best.

Quick stop on our way through to Mt Barker to visit friends and enjoy the Porongorup food and wine festival. Thank you for bringing us to this interesting spot. TFTC
Another interesting spot we would never have known about if it weren’t for Geocaching. A piece of history as part of the Hidden Treasures trail. Thanks for bringing us here.
Found but about 17 m from expected hiding place and waypoint, maybe has been re hidden in the wrong place . Found by the person without a phone
Just couldn’t find this one today - will be back another time for a second try
Thank you! Day four of my five day somewhat random road trip. The plan for today was to do some roymerc caches, hike Mount Lindsey and make my way north-ish. Found the container at the edge of the puddle in the centre. Wasn't sure where it was supposed to go, so put somewhere that made sense. CO might want to check.
A quick find on our way back from the porongorups an interesting piece of history here and well worth a stroll around the dam all in good condition TFTC
Found it on foot from Frankland River with geokids. Would never have seen this interesting area without the cache. Thanks!
Did a 2 day trip down south with the hubby to pick up some caches. We picked up our first cache in Narrogin then went to Highbury, Wagin, Dumbleyung, Katanning, Broomhill, Tambellup, Frankland, Pemberton, Bussellton, Dunsbourgh and finishing off in Bunbury. A great 2 days of caching with some great sights to be seen along the way. Thanks to all the CO,S for placing these caches.
Last cache for me on my loop trip to Bunbury to pick up some goodies I scored on Gumtree.
Almost drove by this hidden location and was happy to go in, having a read before making a quick find at GZ.
Thanks for the cache fairwaydrivers.

Made a little detour for this one, and glad we did. The kids found this one before we did... They're learning well
A great little place of history. Thanks for bringing us here . TFTC.

After recently returning back to Perth after my stay was cut short in Albany by a year it was finally time to return. Catching up with old friends, cache maintenance, FTF opportunities And more green dots to convert to smiles lead to a great reason to head back down the highway.
barnzy12 and I had both been planning trips back to Albany and soon realised we had picked the same weekend.(well that's they story the partners are getting)
The drive down was not the quickest due to the intense deviation needed to clear the map however very enjoyable never the less.
All caches were found and replaced in good condition. Thanks to the CO's for bringing me to the great locations that I got to see and drive past.
Happy hunting, Cravo10

We had a competition who could find the most geoca she's in 1 day and I won hehe
Thanks for the hide fairwaydrivers. Enjoyed the walk around the dam and the information boards. Nice to see this bit of history preserved.
West Australia 2016 trip. Day 23. In my travels heading back east I traveled from Manjimup to Just North of Esperence today. Plenty of back roads along the way to avoid going any further south.
Thanks.

On our way to Balingup for the weekend and are doing some caches on the way. TFTH!!!
Would have driven right past this interesting site if the cache hadn't bought us to it. Some of the watering systems they used were very clever.

When the geokids say they checked the obvious place....never take their word for it they never have a "mum" look! Interesting place. TFTC
With thanks for the cache from Angus the great GeoWestie and his Carer wo are grey (and white) nomads currently travelling in, and enjoying, WA.
Easy find. TFTC. Tor and Betsy, the travelling Westies roaming WA at present. We are from Oxenford near the Gold Coast in Queensland and thoroughly enjoying the West.
Lovely place to stop on a road trip, looked around for a bit then seen 'the obvious spot' and found straight away TFTC!!
A nice quick park and grab here while passing

Found this one on my way southwards for a week of caching and camaraderie. Made a quick detour out to grab this one on my way through town. All good with the cache. Thanks for the smiley fairwaydrivers
TFTC! Have driven past the Frankland turn off many times always wondering what this strangely named place would be like.
Finished work early today and made my way from Albany up the highway and turned off the road to Frankland. Lots of lovely bush/farms/scenery whilst on the road today.
Made three quick finds in town after getting some lunch at the general store.
