Could not find looked around the area but unable to locate cache unfortunately.
Other then that great location!

Wow, what a nice walk/hike. Really lovely way to Bald Head, and on top we found this one. The walk is steep at a few points, but don't underestimate the last kilometer and the way back. Take something to eat at enough water with you as there is little shade. Thanks for hiding this one.

Found 7 years ago but no luck today

Nice quick find, could see it in the bush. Nice big container certainly helps. TFTC

Actually found it on accident. Thanks for putting it there. Will be getting back into geocaching now

Headed out to Bald head today with Richlink.

Had a good 5hr return trip after grabbing some caches around the area first.

Amazing views from this walk, was surprised at how undulating the terrain was, I guess the satellite map doesn’t quite show that!

Highly recommend doing these caches.

Thanks for a great days fun.

Mr richlink picked up Barnzy12 at around 7am for a caching foray on the Torndirrup Peninsula.
The real intention was to do the Bald Head Trail and pick up a few other caches on the way. Quite a few muggles out on the trail taking advantage of the gorgeous summer weather but have to admit noting most were not even carrying water or having sun protection for the trek out. We made a quick find here thanks Team Shermy

I missed the further on because I didn't have reception, but I snagged this one on the way back!
Amazing location!

Found it. Great view. Easy find

What a magnificent walk and the views. Found with our family. The 3 and 4 yr olds are having so much fun

Found it. TFTC Team Sherry. I will make this a fav because of the walk, excellent including the views.

It was late afternoon and we were not too sure how far we would get in an hour as that’s about all the time to sun set we had. Chrome Dome was certainly too far but the other three were completed. Great views along the way with the tall granites, the bay on one side and surf on the other. A lovely pink sunset but it was time to head back with fading light. The light dropped on the last slab so we lost the track but thanks to the satellite image and some bush bashing we soon picked up the track again. TFTC.

Nice easy find on our way through to Bald Head. Beautiful views from this spot. Thanks for placing these caches along the track. They certainly break up the journey and are good rest stops. TFTC

Found on way back from early morning walk 2.30am

Came out to do the Bald Head hike with the Albany Venturers but we only got half way due to the heat (30 degrees by 10am) so hike was cancelled, managed to find this one before we turned back. TFTH

I am visiting Albany, staying with my fellow Australian Aid volunteer Rachel and her husband, and sought out this cache during my visit. It was a straightforward find, being on the coordinates. The walk along this peninsula is stunning, with superb coastal scenery and a wonderful array of wildflowers. The caches were the cream!Thank you Team Shermy for installing and maintaining this cache.

Easy find. Beautiful spot on this bald spot. TFTC

Thanks so much for the cache really liked the container which you don,t get in geocaches in Fremantle.

Woohoo!! Hard workout to get to it but we found it!

Woohoo!! Hard workout to get to it but we found it!

Easy once you read the description

What a whooper

Thankyou. Found Sunday6th with resib3

Great Cache

Thanks for the cache. Great walk

Took us a little while to find this one but one of my muggle friends found it. Greatful for a chance to stop here too and enjoy the view! Thanks for rhe hide ☺

Great Views. TFTC

Another great geocache! TFTC. Melvilla

Loving these mega cache containers after the small to nano caches in the city. Lovely place, great views, all in good condition. Thanks Team Shermy for another great hide.

On our first trip to the big Bald Tor! It was quite visible. Fantastic place- next stop Antarctica.

We found it by accident but what a view. A bit further into the bush now.

Another happy find - good day for a walk

Did the Bold Head Walk today! Great view and very sporty! The caches on the road are very nice! Tftc!

With four days down in Albany decided to do some caching. This little series was top of the list because they were conveniently on a walk I really wanted to complete. The rest of the gang couldn't be bothered with a 16km return walk so I braved it on my own. The series were all relatively easy finds, that provided nice breaks in the walk to take in the amazing views. Thanks for placing the series here, was a joy to complete. TFTC

Easy find, sneekily found it as there were muggles around looking at the great view.

Another quick find on our way out. TFTC

Very happy to easily find this after failing to get our last. Great cache again! Cheers!

TFTC Great walk and easy find.

Used the bank holiday for a walk and bald head was a good choice! Tftc!

Very impressive spot TFTC

Easy one on the way to Bald Head TFTC

Nice easy find for the third of the Bald Head caches.

Must be about the half way point! Great walk so far!
Thanks for the cache

Wish I'd brought some bounty to swop!

TFTC!

On the way back from The Crome Dome. Fantastic walk although wind very strong at times. TFTC

Thanks

For our last day of the Albany caching holiday the Bald Head was on the to do list.
We visited all the caches going towards our destination and arrived to this hide with the breathtaking views on the top. Found the container easily, signed the log and off we went to the Bald Head. TFTH

Thanks for the effort of putting these caches on this awesome walk!!

Day 3 in Albany and we decided to spend it in the Torndirrup National Park taking in the views and a few caches along the way. We thought we might trek out to Bald Head but ran out of oomph (ie fitness) and made it to Bald Spot but picked up our 2,5000th cache along the way. It was another beautiful sunny day and we got to see the park and coast line at its best. The only thing missing were a few whales swimming by .

Our 2,500th cache
And the end point of our trek along this beautiful section of coastline as we realized our time and fitness limitations. Took a couple of photos to mark the occasion and chatted to another group of hikers who caught up with us here and were going "a little bit" further.
Signed the log and dropped in a couple of bits of swag.

Thanks for the cache Team Shermy [^] - nice big container and all was good and dry

Tfth great place To stop and admire

Tftc. Massive wind today. Great views.

Third for the day and getting closer to the goal. This is a great view but I still have more to see, must push on after a small bite to eat. TFTC

Nice walk out to the end. Easy find.

Nice walk. Great views. TFTC

For this one, no problem, a nice big cache, another nice place...TFC

Great place to stop and be amazed by the view. Ocean to the left and right and so many different flowers here in spring. Albeany should have been here. Now I'm here I want to push on to the bald head. Have I got time?

Day off work and hadn't been out along Bald Head trail for a long while. Weather was looking ok so after some morning jobs headed off. Only got caught in one small shower and narrowly missed another.

Only went out as far as this cache which ended up being a 5.5km round trip as had some mid afternoon jobs still to do.

Left a couple of trackables.

great view from the top.

Awesome spot. Tftc!!!

Nice easy location with lots of swapables. TFTC.

All good on the way out, one snake on the return. Strong winds cooled us off and blew us about. TFTC

The hills out to this point haven't gotten any smaller in spite of being hammered by winds. A lovely, though challenging walk. Finding a cache was a lovely break.

A nice stop along the way as MTKEus and I did the big walk out to Bald Head. Thanks Shermy for the fun

Today I was picked up by Robert (tangowithcupcake) to walk the Bald Head Trail. It was a 15 km return walk, quite tough, a small track up and down, but we made it in 5 hours to the Bald Head and back to the car park.

I have to do some more training, too much office work

Thanks Robert for showing me this great track with spectacular views, although I cannot walk any more today.
This cache was found easily.

Thanks Team Shermy and best regards from Germany.

Nice easy find, as part of a great walk enjoyed with a wonderful group of half a dozen hikers/geocachers. Cache was right on target, and is in a great spot with wonderful views. Love the names you've chosen for these Team Shermy, and thanks for making our outing even more enjoyable!

Nice easy find as we did the walk to Bald head. This is a must do walk. TFTC

Decided to complete the caches on Bald Head and had planned the trip for earlier in the year however for various reasons we needed to cancel. Today we (Albany Getaway, Albany Canucks, Rotkost) and another keen walker, set off early and completed the three caches. A great walk and an area in Albany that can only be appreciated by completing the walk. Absolute fantastic and breathtaking views.

Walk is suitable for all ages as Geo-Joey came along (11 yrs old) and apart from not finding the abundant flies being cooperative, he completed the walk in better condition than some of the other walkers (papa Boomer included). We completed the walk in 5 hrs with many stops and a lengthy one at the Chrome Dome.

the three caches are in good condition and thanks for the caches.

Tftc
