Was actually hard to find. Clue - switch to satellite and it's level with the halfway point of the white line. Good luck. )
Stunning day and stunning view Found prior to a walk to Marino with the Flaggy Cubs.
Found It!
Indeed, it is a good view! You sorta come to expect good views down this side of town!
Quick find before wandering in to the earthcache...

Found after an afternoon walk through the park. Container contents are wet as there is only one catch holding the lid closed. Will replace container and add new book in the next few days as I live a few houses away. Thanks for the Cache Huxiekez.
The Scouts Geocaching Competition is about to end... So what does TeamBleden do? Go geocaching!
TeamBleden, accompanied by JMCH, set off on a Sunday afternoon jaunt.
We got Crystals of Calcite - it was nice to learn a bit about Calcite, and it was my first ever EarthCache!
Hockey 3 was nearby. It was quite an easy one to get, once we actually figured out how to get to it.
We attempted The Historic House, but unfortunately couldn't find all of the answers.
You're stair-ing at it was next. Despite there being five of us, we couldn't agree on how many stairs there were, so our coordinates were a bit out. However, we did manage to stumble across the cache with a bit more searching.
The Sugarloaf Earthcache took us to Hallett Cove. We had a lot of trouble actually getting to Hallett Cove from Seacliff, but it was worth it - I was amazed by what I saw with the Sugarloaf.
What A View finished off the day, the views made the short climb worth it!
TFTC, and thanks to everyone who came!

Found with TeamBleden on an afternoon jaunt.
It is certainly a great view.
Left a soft plastic creature - lizzard or gekko or goanna??
Thanks for the view and the cache huxiekez

Out for the day with Earthlight, The X-Trailers & Dayseekers on yet another gorgeous sunny day. Sleep deprived due to an early morning finish with Locus Cache last night.
Stopped by this one on my way to work on a crisp cold morning with blue sky and sun shining. Walked up to GZ and surveyed the amazing scenery, and boy "What a View". It was spectacular this morning, pity I couldn't have stayed longer. Then started searching for the cache which took a little while before I spied it. Retrieved and signed the log before replacing it and heading back down the hill to continue on to work. Thanks for the cache huxiekez.
What an amazing view. And after the wet start to the day I wouldn't have thought it would end so lovely. Tftc
day out With Firesafe CP and Locus cache i think this is going tobe a long day
Yep will agree what a view nice location
Yep will agree what a view nice location
This was another case of a full on day caching!
I was out with the boys: firesafe, CP Wanderer and Honeysucker and had the luxury of driving a Prado with free diesel for the day, thanks to a friend of mine [^]
Somehow, though, Prado got interpreted as Tarago by our usually extremely competent navigator and so we mainly did urban caches rather than rural ones where the vehicle's potential could have been more full utilised but it was still a hugely fun day and all up I attempted to locus cache at 95 caches: 89 successfully and 6 DNFs
Thank you, gentlemen, for the company and laughs and huge congratulations to firesafe on his 10,000th cache [^] [^] .....which just happened to require a 23km fast run from Aldinga to Mt Compass for the FTF (and our 2nd FTF for the day [^] ). Belated congratulations to Honeysucker, too, for his 6,000th find [^]
Another nice, quick find after a short walk from the car which really allowed us to enjoy the beautiful view

Today I teamed up with Honeysucker, Locus Cache and CP Wanderer for a 16 hour caching day caching areas south of Adelaide finishing up in Victor Harbor around 2:30 am.
We hit around 100 caches on the day, even making 2 FTF runs (one in Aberfoyle Park from Hallet Cove and the other at Mt Compass from Aldinga). The second FTF coincided with my 10000 find.
Great view from here. TFTC.

Found while out on a blitz in the Hallett Cove area. Another great view of the ocean, much appreciated. Thanks for the cache huxiekez!
IPhone GPS spot on with this one. Easy first find of an afternoon geocaching walk. Spectacular views of the Hallett Cove Beach from here. Took geocoin, thanks Butterfly_Lady of NZ. TFTC huxiekez.
Enjoyed the view of the sugarloaf from here, and now understand why we could not spy it from the plane as we flew into Adelaide. It really is tucked into that valley! Cache terrain seemed overstated as we approached from above.
Was here with muff1 not long ago and we return today. A lovely spot. Not good for those of us who are not good on hills. Thanks huxiekez.

So many great places to enjoy the view to sea from here. It was quite busy on the water today with sailing and fishing boats everywhere. SL TFTC
Mr Tardis parked at the top and walked down to do a few caches around the reserve. A lovely view from up here, although a little breezy.
Signed the log. Thanks for the cache huxiekez.

I agree - it definitely is an awesome view! Enjoyed our walk around this beautiful area today. TFTC
Found on a beautiful sunny day before winter returned! Top coast for walking and top spot for a cache. Thanks for bringing us here.
Our first find of the day trying out our new gps..
So far so good.... Love this area... Dropped off TB... TFTC

We had lunch out this way this friends and this was one of the caches we were able to do. Lovely view on the walk. Thanks huxiekez
We had spent all afternoon wandering around Hallett Cove Conservation Reserve, walking past most of the caches. (I should be struck out of geocaching, I know.)
We took the easy option and drove to a street above and walked down to this.
Straight-forward find and a nice reward after the cache-less arvo we'd had.

Nice easy find once my GPS had stopped trying to trick me onto the other side of the fence.
After hoping the rangers wouldn't see me in the conservation park, going cross country, I had to cross the barbed wire fence. But all that made an easy find a little more exciting.
Good workout for us today as we came up from the beach!!! Totally worth the view as well as the GC grab Thanks for taking me to a beautiful spot I probably wouldn't have made the effort to get to otherwise!!
We used to live in Hallett Cove 13 years ago before moving to Qld
Had walked down this path many times taking the children to the beach
Decided to do the walk today must say it was a lot easier to do back then even with 3 children in tow than today
Must be getting older
One thing that has not changed is the great view
Left Geo Coin

A cloak of invisibility would be good especially in day light hours as the homeowners across the way could be a problem. Hope this was not the case as i carefully grabbed cache signed log and left.
What a View it was bumped into MDand4Bs TFTC

Found by B2
Easy find.
Bumped into 'insada5161' and 'hethdil' again.
We first met them about half an hour earlier when we saw them cruising around the location of GC1GP3R, GDTA - Hallet Cove Beach, which we had already found.
One of the Bs was keen to find out who they were. We approached and one of our Bs said "I know what you are doing", and I was a little surprised to get the reply, "You must be MDand4Bs".
HOW would they know THAT.(?)
Nice to meat you all, again, insada5161 and hethdil.

Another great hike to GZ from Brighton . Good way to keeping fit. Walking to Geocaches is fun and I am able to control my Carbon Foot Print. TFTC.
The name says it all. Easy find. Woohoo my 1500th cache find. Thanks huxiekez.
What a view indeed. BobGsa and I have spent a lovely afternoon exploring the Hallett Cove Conservation Park. Now we are enjoying the view, and I have decided that this would be a nice spot to drop of Medusa Geocoin that I have been carrying around all day, trying to find the perfect spot.
We were going about our business with a GPSr in one hand and a sheet of paper in the other when a helpful neighbor called out, 'Did you find it?'
How do you think he knew what we were doing!?!

Thanks Huxie for the cache.

Sure it was a nice view. But for some reason, Freddo kept asking me about a torch. Where's my torch???? Doh. And there were clear skies.
After a false start up the wrong side of the fence. Found it easily. Magnificent views.
Thanks huxiekez for the cache.

After seeing the cafe closed on a Monday we took a quick hike up the hill to get this one. A bequtiful view and a fast run (roll) back down the hill. TFTC
