Late log, finished the C2C a few weeks ago.Great location with a view !

No luck with this one

Very disappointed. No luck today. Beautiful view

TFTC

Thanks for the cache in the most amazing location

TFTC!

For some reason the GPS mark is a little off, it is actually;https://maps.app.goo.gl/JYGMBfPEq1uB9a27A

no luck today. Spent time searching @ GZ even with the maintenance having been done, we had no luck.Edit: after talking with the CO, he advised it was an easy find just ignore the GPS and find it at the chair ....... 70mts from GZ

Maintenance complete. Not a hard find, under rocks in front of the seat.

Hey legends, we have recently completed maintenance.

I found a promising pile of stones at what appeared to be the location, but no joy.Your five year old is indeed a legend, and a sterling effort from the ten year old as well.

Having organised the right sort of transport it was time to put it to us on these tracks and of course pick up some caches along the way. Some sandy and well rutted sections but no issues. Some great views along the way and generally short searches. TFTC

I should do my homework does for lunch on the seat and had to backtrack. Great view

Great view TFTC

Quick find after a short walk.
TFTH

My last find on my solo hike south to north on the Cape to Cape. I managed to bag 28 caches over 5 days and am very grateful they are placed along the track to break the kms up. The view here was fantastic and a bit further north I watched humpbacks frolicking close to shore. TFTC.

Tftc and tnln. HOTA

First day of seven on the Cape to Cape Track (self guided with Cape to Cape Exploratory). An easy find.

Doing a bunch of caches around south west Western Australia. TFTC.
At the end (start) of the 4x4 track, I was welcomed with this wonderful vista. Magical.

Cache is in good condition.

Hiking the Cape to Cape
Saw 4 seals from the seat. Saw 1 geocache from the sign. Took a pic because I didn’t have a pen. Cheers

Another fantastic viewpoint on the Cape to Cape Track. Not much people were on the way today. The sun was relentlessly, but fortunately we hiked southward. Todays leg took us to Mt Duckworth campsite. Thanks!

Find 12 of 12 with 2 DNFS. Continuing where Mr O left off I parked at S33 36.967 E115 02.781 and walked my route. It turns out that today I could have probably ridden a good two thirds of the north south section from 24 to 18 especially along the fire break track as opposed to the 4WD track but as soon as the track headed west it got really sand boggy and I wouldn't recommend anyone try dragging a MTB through that. Its also a damn long walk back up from the coast with the uphill really only ending at 22. I saw one snake, a lot of 4WD all going north to south and no leavers.... well maybe a few P platers once lunchtime had passed.

This was my turning point today and I really hadn't realised on the way here what the trip back would be like on foot. Found easily and left a TB.

TFTC 4EarthHikers

Found on day 1 of the Cape to Cape. TFTC

TFTC what a beautiful spot

Easy find with geogirlfriend Wendy on first day of our C2C adventure

Lovely view alright, worth taking the walk out here. TFTC

Day 11 walking the Cape to Cape track Thankyou for the cache.

Quick find TFTH

Glad we took the time to walk to this cache. We sat for a while looking for whales. Thanks for the cache.

Thanx

Struep and me found this one quickly on our first day of the Cape to Cape Track

Thanks,

Hi there 4EarthHikers - while staying in the Four Seasons Caravan Park in Busselton for the WAGB weekend

Enjoying our time out on the trail. TFTC

I was still travelling out and about with maccamob and our aim for the day was a few caches before heading to the CITO and then an afternoon of fun doing the 4wd tracks.

After a pleasant morning caching despite the weather and attending the CITO of hardly any rubbish we joined force with Crank1, Everlasting,Varuna & Baby & Mrs Gopher to start the Dunsborough Tracks & The Goldilocks series.
It was a great way to spend the afternoon with beautiful scenery, varied cache hides and excellent company.

We saw that this cache wasn't too far away and after sitting in the 4wd it was great to stretch the legs and go for a bit of a walk along a glorious part of the coastline. The cache was located quickly in a strong wind and we were soon making our way back to the car enjoying the magnificent views from here

To save room in the log we signed as "3 States"

Thanks 4EarthHikers for the cache.

Day 3 WAGB 2018, with group -Mrs Crackers, baby&Mrs gopher, maccamob, crank1 and Varuna, we all are enjoyed the 4WD track. Signed the log as "3 state" Thanks for cache and hunt.

Found with kellydrinkstea and crew while down here for the WA goes big 2018 TFTC

7982 Located by baby&Mrs gopher in company with maccamob, Team Crackers, Everlasting, crank1 and Varuna at 1510. The logs were signed as 3States. Being Vic, WA and NSW. This was a very pleasant walk from the parking area. We waited for a large group of hikers to head up this way as we arrived at the parking area. SL Tnx 4EarthHikers

Found by Mary & David, in company with Mrs Crackers, baby&Mrs gopher, Everlasting, crank1 and Varuna, at 1514. Simply glorious views across the water with the changing light and shadow. Needed the walk in after so much sitting on the 4WD track. We've had a wonderful time at WAGB 2018. Signing as "3 States". Our thanks to 4EarthHikers.

Thanks for the cache

Out with FelixII and the Machman to tackle the Goldilocks and Dunsborough Trails 4WD series.
Glad we used FelixII's Landcruiser as my Pulsar would not have made it!
Some easy finds, plenty of tough ones. Thanks for a great series. TFTC

Met up with FelixII at WAGB so headed off along with Spatial Riq to take on this 4WD series. .. lots of fun !! Walked the 600m to grab this one as on walking track, easy find on arrival TFTC

Tftc

We headed out along the tracks today to collect some more smilies, happy to say we came up trumps here. We enjoyed this cache and absolutely loved watching the whales enjoying and playing in their playground, amazing and breath taking TFTC

Visiting Dunsborough for the WA Goes Big event; out caching the surrounding area with hhheddy & Ross1957. Thank you 4EarthHikers

Out with a group today doing the Dunsborough Track series.
TFTC

Last afternoon off prior to the event over the weekend, had watched this series be published for a few days and now it was looking complete.

Managed to team up with Mistraluna, SeabreezeOz, Lazarus68, HHHeddy, Ross1957 and Barnzy12 for the expedition

A great ride through the track again this time also with a spot of whale watching.

Tackling the Dunsborough Track series, we were not going to let this one slip by unfound…. We enjoyed the walk to the location, wildflowers in abundance & whales too Cache was quickly discovered as a whale shot out of the water in the distance!

TFTC 4EarthHikers

Out caching along the new Dunsborough Tracks series. since we were passing close to this cache it was a no brainer to stop and make the find. Found the cache without any trouble , many thanks for bringing us out here.

Out this afternoon to cleanup the Dunsborough tracks series of caches.

Managed to team up with Mistraluna, SeabreezeOz, Lazarus68, HHHeddy, Ross1957 and Cravo10 for the expedition.

A neat series that will surely help my stats.

A few difficult caches in the series and a variety of containers.

Thanks for the series.

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 close to the coordinates. Thank you 4EarthHikers for installing and maintaining this cache.

Day 1 of the C2C.
Thanks for the hide! My friend's first geocache!

Fnd on Cape to Cape trek - all good - TFTC

On our way south a quick find with The-Shredder. TFTC

After having failed to find a 4WD access to this ache on a previous visit a couple of years ago, in preparation for today's attempt we did some research. Arrived around mid morning at the track off Sugarloaf Road and negotiated our way along the corrugated and occasional potholed sandy track. There was a fair bit of traffic on the narrow track today requiring several pull ins to the scrub to let others pass in the opposite direction. Guess we shouldn't have been too surprised to have found at least a dozen cars parked up at the 'three Bears' car park, some people making their way down the steep track to the waves while others observed from above. We continued onward as the track was open and eventually parked at S33 35.618 E115 01.096 - just 310 mts from gz. It was an easier walk on the Cape Track to gz than the very bumpy and bone shaking drive in. Replaced the cracked container with a new 200 ml Sistema. Thanks4EarthHikers for enticing us to this great location that our 'boys' surf at often.

We found it quite easily but the container was a bit cracked but we could still log it.

TFTC

Drove to within 1km in the Jeep. Lid cracked. Water in container. Replaced with container upside down. Great walk on blustery day. TFTC.

With a couple of muggle friends we planned to do the Cape to Cape Trail in stages. The first leg took us from Cape Nat Lighthouse down to Yallingup.

Arriving at GZ I told them I needed to make a quick stop and introduced them to Caching. They looked through the log and didn't understand the idea. Never mind and on we trekked. TFTC. A fav for the location.

Beautiful walk - we forgot a pen so we will be back to write our name in the log! TFTC!

First one in Oz. What a beautiful view

Today Loudy16 and I are headed down to Busselton to catch up with a few geo-mates. With the highways all closed due to the fires, we set off at first light and aimed to grab a few caches on the Albany Hwy detour.

Teamed up with Dallyho who chauffeured us along the Three Bears Track. A nice cache here with great views. We signed and replaced the cache just before a group of hikers rounded the head.

Enjoyed the drive in to this one, what a great spot along awesome coastline.

TFTC 4EarthHikers.

4EarthHikers, I found your cache Hunting Season on 9/01/2016 at 2:40 PM. This is my find #2218 and #13 today.

heading down to busselton today from perth took the long way because of the fires picked up some along the way and out and around busselton with krabiboy and dallyho

4EarthHikers, I found your cache Hunting Season on 9/01/2016 at 2:30 pm. This is my find #1111 and #14 today.

Awesome spot for a cache to be placed. Loudy16, Krabiboy, Geowife and I were out enjoying the 4x4 adventure on Three Bears track to grab a couple more smilies for the day. Seen a number of hikers approaching so we sneakily grabbed the cache and soon had the log signed. Tftc

Tftc. Easy finding great view

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.

TFTC glad it was here as it gave me a chance to stop on my 35km hike with scouts

Had a wonderful walk along the Cape to Cape track today
Started at Sugarloaf Rock and walked to Yallingup
The first half of the walk was along the top of the limestone cliffs with magnificent views down the coast towards Yallingup and down onto some beautiful bays with crystal clear rock pools of azure blue
I stopped on the nearby bench to have a late lunch and then made a quick find of the cache before continuing on my walk
The path soon headed more inland and was mostly through scrubby woods along a fire trail until you reach the carpark at the North end of Yallingup town.
Here there is a viewpoint looking down onto the long sandy beach and in the North can be seen Sugarloaf Rock while to the South is Smiths beach.

Container lid is cracked and will need to be replaced as water is seeping into container.

Walked here with my 4 year old son kai, he was really happy to find this and has elevated his energy for the walk home! Thanks

Found this one relatively easily. We were on a hike on the Cape-to-Cape over three days. Going on day walks, doing car shuttles and staying at nice accommodation enabled us to leave Cape Naturaliste at midday on Tuesday and finish at Prevally on Thursday midday. Three days off work with fun company to recharge the batteries. TFTC 4EarthHikers. melvilla

Great views but howling a gale this arvo which made it a quick grab and run rather than continuing onto Bears for a bit of beach combing.

Came down to Busselton for a couple of days R & R. What better to do than team up with urch and her hubby for a day of caching. Our chauffeur was not happy about bringing his limousine out here, but we ignored his displeasure and insisted that he do as he was told. What a glorious view!! So glad we made the effort to come and find this one. Thanks for placing the cache 4EarthHikers

Thanks to our intrepid driver we made it to within meters of GZ, but it certainly was a pretty rugged track in places. We found a much better track on the way out, which seems par for the course for me when caching! Once the quickly found cache was found and signed we spent some time soaking up the view on the nearby bench.
Left my pathtag. Thanks for bringing us here and for the cache 4EarthHikers.

Very easy find right beside the trail - great view.

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.

I had a great walk today. Started from the Yallingup takeaway shop and walked along the trail to easily find this cache. A nice day for hanggliding - I saw about 4 soaring high above the cliffs. Picked up TB. TFTC 4EarthHikers

TFTC 4EarthHikers. Have been walking sections of the C to C track and this section in the middle, between SugarLoaf and Yallingup had eluded us for awhile because we were not sure if we could get the Subaru in here. Well, we did so finally got this section of the track completed and located the cache into the bargain. Sadly some muggles had found this just before us and had put a very unsavoury drawing in the container which we took the liberty of disappearing. Great spot along this section of the coast.

Tftc

TFTC, left a trackable

Found it when walking the Cape to Cape with a group Adventurous Women.
"Zo zie je nog eens iets" Thanks!

Thanks for the hide enjoyed the drive down the bears track. Mamas and Papas was working today with some good sets coming through.

We rested here while on the final day of the cape to cape walk. Good spot to enjoy some morning tea.

Here with geoscouts dropped trackable. Thanks for the hide.

We were delighted to find this cache on the Cape to Cape walk rather than on the side of the road. This cache deserves a favourite point for that and the location. Having completed the walk in 7 days carrying our camping gear, food, water etc we can thoroughly recommend it. The coastal scenery is stunning, the whales were amazing to watch and the wild flowers were beautiful. We met some interesting people along the way too. TFTC.

after the long trek found the blue bag cache signed the dolphin card tftc

I live around the corner an come here often.. Today i Found the plastic bag was hoping to find some sort of a container with a writing implement as I had been surfing and did not have my own on me... Oh well didn't write anything but can safely say I found it

Gotcha !!! Cache is missing but photo evidence sent to CO confirms our visit and CO has given permission to log a find. We left two Dolphin tickets as a tempory cache in a blue plastic bag under rocks at GZ with our log written on them.
Thanks 4EarthHikers. Hope the weather improves to allow you to replace the cache soon.

I went, I looked, I failed. Been an unsuccessful period of caching this fortnight.
Nice day, enjoyed the trip, so not so disappointed.

Found it while hiking the Cape to Cape Track.

I found this nice cache during my vacation in Western Australia.
TFTC and greetings from Switzerland

Nice hike from Yallingup to the lighthouse an back...

Cratello.ch & Müsli

Cool, nice spot logged after a quick operation.

Our third cache for the morning and a third to be awarded a Favourite both for its location and the fun we had getting here!!! Drove in from Sugarloaf Rock Road in the Zook. Awesome!! What a great spot and an ingenious cache idea.
Thanks to 4EarthHikers for bringing us here (and thankfully for an alternative way to get here as hiking that far was a bit beyond us)
