Archiving this cache due to the number of logs mentioning the rocks being slippery. Obviously it is too hard for some people to cope with so removing it.

#5682 Enjoying a couple of geodog free days we set off on an intriguing adventure into Cape le Grand and heading first to Cache le Grand to be specific. Already impressed by the shear beauty of this place. A quick scramble to gz and the cache was found without issue. TFTC goosebumpers.

Found after spending the day out in the Cape Le Grande National Park, have to say this was my least favourite beach. But made up for it by having a geocache. However I didn't have the appropriate shoes on for hunting and did come across a red belly black on my way back. Please don't be like me and wear appropriate foot wear!!

What a stunning NP this is! We expected it to be scenic but totally underestimated how much. It's a great view of the pristine Cape le Grand beach from GZ. And there's a rock to sit on to sign the log! TFTC goosebumpers. FP! Picked up Maori wooden coin (Aapje).

We are currently on a eight week holiday which is mostly spent in New Zealand and Australia. However, the first three days were spent in Singapore as a nice break from an otherwise long flight. We had about three weeks in New Zealand which went by too quickly. The remaining five weeks are spent in Australia. Yesterday we drove from Hyden to Esperance. For today we have planned to walk from Rossiter Bay to Le Grand Beach. It turned out to be an amazing walk. which turned Thank you very much for this cache. The trail went through various types of landscape. We had amazing views and spotted different kinds of wildlife. Also we had excellent weather. A clear blue sky with an exuberantly shining sun. It just can't get any better. To even add to the fun there was this cache along the track. We found it after a short search without any problem. Thank you very much for this cache.

We are staying in Esperance for a few nights, and this morning, after climbing Frenchmans Peak, we drove down to the water here. The colour of the sand and the colour of the water under a very blue sky is absolutely outstanding and aside from one fisherman, we seemed to have the beach to ourselves. We then came on the mission to find this hide, and with a good set of coordinates soon had our name added to the log.Thanks goosebumpers for highlighting this incredibly beautiful area through geocaching. We add an absolute well-deserved favourite point here. Domsky

Oggi andiamo a visitare qualche spiaggia a est di Esperance nel parco nazionale Cape Le Grand. Questa la prima. Tanta ma non troppa gente sulla spiaggia anche se il camping tutto pieno. Qualche passo sulle rocce e troviamo la scatolotta in piena forma. Firmiamo sull'ultimo posto disponibile nel logbook, scattiamo qualche foto e torniamo verso il basso.Ma che bel posto! Ciao e grazie. #10808Today we are going to visit some beaches east of Esperance in the Cape Le Grand national park. This is the first.Lots but not too many people on the beach even if the campsite is completely full. A few steps on the rocks and we find the little box in full shape. We sign on the last available spot in the logbook, take some photos and head back down.But what a beautiful place! Hello and thanks. #10808

I parked in the car park and with no trail to follow i started in a straight line but soon run into a meter of seaweed, skirted uphill towards GZ and did some rock hopping and scrub bashing to arrive at GZ, cache uncovered, log signed and replaced as found, I did find an easier path back. Thanks for bringing me here and

Out and about again, exploring Esperance - particularly the eastern side and Cape LeGrande NP. Did the early hike up to the top of Frenchman Peak, then detoured to Hellfire Bay. Finally to Le Grande Beach.

Found a variety of hides and in different areas which made for a nice day. Generally quick finds today

Thanks to all the CO’s for the hides I found.

Not sure if the photo captures it, but we were amazed by how clear the water is here - it barely looks like seawater. Reception was patchy, but better out towards the cache - I knew where it was roughly, and made a quick find. Thanks goosebumpers for this view along the beach.

Beautiful day so booked the geo-schnauzer into doggy day care and headed to Cape Le Grand.
