After a thorough search and waiting out lots of muggles to continue our search, we came up empty-handed. I was hoping to find this one after talking with a fellow (local) cacher last night, however we unfortunately came up empty handed.
A quick and easy find for the geokids on a perfect spring day. The view was amazing too! TFTC
Quick easy find once the muggles left. Pen stop working so couldnt sign unfortunately
Great views and a great cache to match. Took a while but got there.Having camped just out of Denmark, today was mostly a day around Albany. A lovely warm sunny day, and I think the first time I've visited here when it's dry and not windy, it sure is a pretty area. A few select caches, quite a few ALs and a visit of some interesting historical sites. Had a nice lunch and took the opportunity to get some groceries topped up while in a good regional area. Really loved the scenery of water, calm today, and a few walks by it as well as on hills to enjoy the area. A challenge series on the way out of town and a visit towards Bremer Bay had a later night travelling. Our pre arranged camp at Jerramungup was a good location to stop for the day. Thanks for the cache.
Another long trip around AU over the top end with lots of detours. Now heading back east across the Nullarbor.TFTC. A great hide. Lots of hiding spots.
Found at 2:17 PM GAFF4.Wonderful views from here and the day really turned it on being clear and oh so still!Started to search and of course when you miss the place where the cache is hidden right at the start - you end up spending a massive amount of time searching all over the place. Thankfully it was a quite day and there were only one or two muggles visiting so we could rummage around uninterrupted. Eventually c-pprass graciously decided to assist in the search and it was she who went to one of the very first spots that p-pprass looked at and casually pulled out the container!Can be very tough if there are muggles about and if you over think where the hiding spot is! Co-ords were nearly spot on!Thanks to crabzy11
Great hide. Took ages to find it though. Had to stop to see a whale. Found it eventually.
Struck it lucky... only two people here who took their photos and left. We didn't waste a second, it was only a matter of time before some of those wandering muggles came to wreck a good hunt. Just when we needed it we looked in the right place first... a quick find!Fantastic panoramic views and an ideal spot for whale watching, binoculars included. TFTC crabzy11.
We found it. really hard to find we were just about to leave the found it at the last second.
Wowsers, we certainly picked the wrong day to attempt this one.....Easter Saturday.... Way too many muggles....pazza disappeared underneath for only a few seconds but then he realised that he had a GoPro on his head and looked very inappropriate so quickly scurried back to leave this one for a not so busy day.....can see why the D is so hard on this one
After a while my friend Primero1 found it. Thanks to the owner crabzy11 for this cache. Warm regards from Switzerland.
Too many muggles unfortunately!! Don't want ppl to think we looking up their skirts hahaha.
Plenty of searching & evidence of previous cachers (a biro!) but didnt find it Will try again on my next trip to WA!
Looked and looked but no success. Did bump my head twice. After the second time I was well over it
Gps was sending me all over the place. Looked around all the obvious spots but then the muggles arrived. Sadly had to move on.
Arrived in the carpark early and headed straight up to this cache before it got busy, started searching methodically where the gps wanted me to look and spent a considerable amount of time and a sore neck until I found the cache.
Returned as found and continued on with the sightseeing, great views of Albany from up here, thanks for placing and

Tried to find cache a while ago with no success. Went back out today and was about to give up when I found it. Nice hide
Constant stream of muggles on wa day did not help. It felt like I'm playing game Hitman. I checked most of the underside but DNF.
No luck here. I even did a PAF. My neck won't miss in the way I know it needs to find the cache so I will give it a miss.
Always up for the challenge of a D4.5! This time the lucky bingo moment happened quickly. Heading west and so glad to be here. Learning a lot and marvelling at what that day must have been like for those lads leaving our shores. Henry Warburton Sutton - my great grandfather on mums side was a 17 year old amongst them on the Benalla 24. Wow. TFTC and the find.
We are from the Netherlands and enjoying a Roadtrip. We are also looking for geocaches. This one was great! Took us Some time but we found it! Tftc!
We looked and looked and looked with no success. We will try again some other time
What a fantastic view of the area. Spent some time here on the hill reading and caching. We have completed many structure caches like this one, some easy to find and others not. Using plenty of stealth today. Took a bit of time, but come up with the camouflaged cache in the end. Clever. TFTC
Enjoying a long weekend in Albany, and of course picking up a few caches while here The only day with a real plan was yesterday (completing the Whale Tail series), otherwise I'm just picking them up as I roam around I had a TB to drop off at Mount Clarence so grabbed a few caches too while here - this one included. Quite a few people along Convoy Walk but happily I arrived to find the lookout completely deserted That wouldn't last so I was straight into the search and with some relief made a nice quick find. Still no-one around when I emerged - phew. I've been here a few times before but I always get a few chills when I stand there and think what it must have been like when those convoys were gathering in place. No problems here today - TFTC
After scooting around Albany, at the top of the hill, we came across this one, signed the log and put it back were it belonged. Thanks for the cache.

Heading back to WA for a visit. Staying a few days in Albany. With rain overnight we werent sure what we would attempt today. Headed up to Mt Clarence for some AdLabs but with the weather clearing a few more caches kept being added to our target then a quick lunch with iluvtrekking before just one more turned into another dozen or so.

Nabbed this one today after posting a lookout and waiting for a gap in visitors. Was a quick snatch and grab before putting it back and rather nonchalantly walking out. Thanks for the cache!
As with others, went too far in! Be careful of the barb wire (you don’t need to go near it).
A quick find here - Young Bruce was quickly onto it, and we were lucky to have the place to ourselves. Must have been quite the sight when they sailed. Thanks crabzy11 for the nifty 3D printed hide.
Never an easy time looking under structures but this time it bore fruit! Cheers!
It has been awhile between caches for me....But Gypsy Roaming and I have still got it and managed to find our one cache for the day without problem.
Wonderful spot, TFTC crabzy11.

Share the wonderful view with IQ0 and a cache to find as well Thanks for the cache.
In Albany for a Vertical Rescue Team Leader course for SES. Day 3 called off due to terrible weather (sideways hail) which meant I had a chance to come up and have a look at the ANZAC Centre and sneak in a cache.
No pen but I hope a photo of the log will be ok (no spoilers)
TFTC this is a great spot everyone who has a chance should visit.
Worth a favourite

Done . Thank you very much. The rocks are very slippery. Had a mishap. Love the view.
Great little hide! Log book is full but someone has added a bit of paper. Love the view, Albany at its best! TFTC!
While touring WA from Victoria we used geocaching as our tour guide for artwork, historic locations, geological features and breathtaking views of the Southern Ocean. Great views up here of the bay, views that take your breathe away.
A search here had the ca he in hand, signed and returned before any muggles appeared.
Thanks crabzy11 for the placement with a view.

Headed out with the MICKS (Meme28, I C Nothing,Cirrus_WA, Kapalua and me SirFancy) crew and Burns345.
We got a lot done and headed to the CITO event then got a few more before lunch, after lunch we jumped in to different peoples FWDs and headed out as a much larger group, there was mud and fun.
Ended the day with good food surrounded by good people.
Cache in good condition.

Thank you crabzy11 for placing and maintaining this cache.
Geology rocks but Geography is where it’s at!
(I’m not a geologist I just like puns)

When I saw where this cache was located, I did not think I would find it before Muggle Husband had finished reading the information boards here, and wanted to move on. However I got lucky and spotted the cache early in a methodical search. Woo Hoo. Loving caching in Albany.
Today we go to Albany. We walking around the Anzec centre to do the labadventure and other caches. Beautifull views and interesting information. Thank you for the caches and greetings from The Netherlands.
TFTC coordinates out by about 6 metres, whilst I was busy searching geowife stumbled across it by chance
