14 Mile View Pink Lake, Western Australia, Australia

We are on our way back over to the West for a friends memorial service but this trip we are taking our time , enjoying the drive and picking up a few caches and taking in the scenery. We are mainly concentrating on Ad Labs, Earth caches and Virtual's as these don't give you any muggle problems. Of course there will be others in between.We enjoyed the drive out to this one and once here we were rewarded with some more fantastic views.We parked and headed off to gz where surprisingly the cache was found in the first place we looked and we added our name to the log and returned everything as found. Many thanks for showing us this great location.

With a few days to explore Esperance, we decided for this one that we would park at the car park at 11 mile Beach. It was then just over 1.5 km to walk along the beach which was a really beautiful option for us. Perfect weather and stunning views all the way. Cache found safe and dry and log signed. Thanks espercache Domsky

Nice 4wd tracks, we enjoyed ourselves and the cache!

This was to be our last cache for the day, little bit of 4 wd to end the day. Part way along the track we came across another car parked in the track. It didn't seem to be aware we were behind, so got out to have a chat and found a bloke asleep in the car, given we weren't sure he was asleep we set about waking him up. Once we woke him he moved off the road and we continued in trying to follow the tracks to GZ. We got about 50 m away when we heard a car coming from the other direction sure enough it was old mate who had woken up from snooze and he drove right into GZ! What are the chances a mile away from anywhere to get muggles out!!! Well we waited him out and thankfully he wasn't camping up for the night. Very happy to get a smiley on this one. Tftc

Summer Holidays means we are hitting the road for our next adventure. Plenty of sun, sand and making memories are the plans. Whilst on our travels we of course will ensure to collect smilies. The weather today is as not favourable for beach swimming so we decided to do some more exploring with the 4wd. We explored the area between 10 and 14 mil beaches and area we previously not been too. Glad this cache convinced us to come this way the view and the beaches were magnificent even if the weather was not favourable.Today we found your cache easily and it was in good condition. Tftc.

Found during several days at Esperance enjoying the incredibly scenic views of the area and searching for caches along the way. Thanks for the cache espercache!

Amazing spot!!! Tftc

Out hiking in the area stunning view

What a beautiful view

TFTCand the cool drive to get it

Road back open and also somewhat accessible from the beach if you like a dune climb. Parked up around 10mt from GZ and made a quick find. Good to see a fresh new log book in one very large preform tube.
Views were great have a Fav point

Headed down for an overnighter with Cravo10 to Esperance to cleanup the last few caches out this way and enjoy some of the scenery.

Thanks for the hide.

Road closed & far too far for us to do on foot Cheers

Early morning caching in Esperance. Quick find with a nice little walk.
Thanks for the hide

After the rain, the sandy track was quite firm so no problem making the drive to gz. Found a plastic bag with a damp/mouldy log book. Replaced with a large preform container with fresh log sheet. Love the coastline along here - magnificent! Thanks espercache
Took: TB

An afternoon scenic off road drive along the Esperance coast made this cache very enjoyable. Nice views.

Great drive along the beach and 4wd track

TFTC desperately needs some TLC

Went For the bumpy ride to this cache. Found under ashrub. Needs a bit of tlc. Signed the log and replaced as found.

A great and easy 4wd on. Found cache but it's on desperate need of a new container. It's smashed with large container covering it.
WOW what a great spot. Evidence people have camped here.

Ein Teil des Teams war in entferntere Gegenden unterwegs und der konnte gut gefunden werden.

Vielen Dank für die nette Aufgabe und den Cache.

Team N51E06

Absolutely awesome cache and such a great drive out also found a sneaky entry entitled 'Hot guy' with a phone number. Gave me a giggle. Tftc!

A great stop

Approached on the track on the top and found it easily. Then drove down to the beach, a bit rough descent but it was OK. The climb at the ramp was easier than expected wit the tyres down to 18 psi. THTH

Good spot fun find

Took the 4WD track in and got to within a few hundred metres of the cache without engaging 4WD. Could have got further but the side track was a bit narrow so decided to walk the last bit. Great views.
TFTC espercache

Yes! A tame drive most of the way!

Found with baman_5 and kreffo on a beautiful Thursday evening! Thanks for the cache

Great views! TFTC

Is this cache still ok? After the fires down that way?

A good drive in. Enjoyed the 4wd-ing. Cheers

Second stop today on a caching tour of Esperance, totalling 14 finds in wet windy conditions. Loved the track to this cache, didn't expect so many bumps though and had to sacrifice the takeaway coffee! Took a wrong turn toward the end, needed to veer left where the blue flagging is wrapped around the bush. Fav point from us

A new container and contents. Thanks for the help.

Glad to have the 4wd on this one what a great spot the view is amazing tftc

chose to walk not dissapointed great hike and find tftc tnln

Decided to take the weekend off and head to Esperance to enjoy the beautiful beaches. This was our first find down here for the weekend. We then spent the next few days camping out on the beach finding some new spots. Thanks for the hide espercache.

Enjoyed the 4WD trip in. Didn't exactly pick the right track towards the end from the selection on offer but got there eventually. What a fantastic view from GZ. A top cache - thanks

I found this one with Mum and Dad (jasenjanine) while on our Christmas holidays . I had lots of fun 4wding into this cache, and saw some quad bikes on the beach when we got to GZ [^] ... TFTC espercache, have a fave point

Having a fantastic holiday in Esperance, we decided we would just let the GPS'r guide us from cache to cache today Our last find for the day & also the last one for the year, we picked a ripper!

Pulling up at the start of the track, there were cars stopped putting the air back in their tyres... We did a quick check with them to see what the track was like & we were off Bump, Bump, Bumpy Bump all the way to GZ, only missing one track along the way!

Wow, what a spot for a cache... Cache was quickly found whilst we sat & watched a heap of quad bikes tear up & down the beach TFTC & the adventure today espercache... Loved it!

A 4x4 ride to the cache. Tftc!

Tftc... We did this one on foot. Great day for a beach walk.... We wished we brought our shoes for the last bit though. Great location thanks espercache for taking us here.

Walked along beach (stopping for many photos) then up the vehicle track to inland track which was an easy, no scratchy access to GZ. Found old and new container replaced by Nijesa and signed new log book. Spotted a whale swimming past who waved but did not wait for a photo. Geosons fishing & swimming with grandparents. A lovely avo on the beach. Thanks for the walk and the cache.

Water in cache and everything very wet. Log book U/S and anything that can rust, has. Left old logbook etc. in original container. Left square snap lock container, new log book and 2 small pencils.
Enjoyed the walk from 11 mile carpark with geo-wife on a beautiful afternoon. The views are still speckie.

Found fairly easily but cache is wet and log book unwriteable. The drive in was a bit harder. 4wd only. Windy day on the beach today! TFTC.

We found this full of water. We did our best to dry it out but it defiantly need a new log and some attention.

Quick find after an awesome drive out to the cache. TFTC.

Cache was full of water and in need of some maintenance, we cleaned it out but needs a new log. Great location we enjoyed our drive out there and the view once we made it there!

Great drive great views easy find. found cache box full of water emptied it out but unable to sign log book as it was in a bag of water left our names on note paper and left in box. This cache is in need of maintenance. TFTC

What a view! Would not recommend doing this one in thongs (although that's implied by the terrain rating). TFTC

TFTC

Took a while to find........nice view, good spot, did some fishing on the way home

Great view

left Leeuwin keyring with Dyl \/ \/ \/

Easy walk at low tide. The fishing holes still look good. Some parts of the beach have been eroded back about 3 metres over the last 3 years. Cache well hidden from carpark. Ocean very restless, not inviting.
Took Cornish GC to help it on its way. Left $3 coins. TFTC.

very nice drive we liked it a lot

I think we did this one the hard way nice day for a walk on the beach though.

After an exciting trek in the 4wd along the beach, I managed to hike my way to this stunning place. I took the hard way and managed to scratch my legs to bits but it was all part of the fun.. Great cache and impressive view. Took fairy and left an uber bouncy ball. TFTC Espercache.

Being new to this 4x4 business after reading the logs we decided to leave the Navara in the carpark and walk to the cache. Thoroughly enjoyed the walk along the beach and then the 4x4 track along the ridge on the way back. Saw a couple of 4x4's along the beach and a couple of dirt bikes were enjoying the tracks on this showery Foundation Day. Great views. SL TN Left a sparkly octopus. TFTC esercache[^] A favourite point from us[^]

Found at 11.05am GAFF1. We loved this cache. Great scenery and taking us to wonderful lookouts. The track was a bit narrow and we now have lovely scratches the full length of the Patrol, but that was better than walking about 1.5kms from the road.
Thanks espercache.
Took TB

Found it after a drive through 11 mile beach...good 4WD track. Stunning view at the Cache!
But the way back wasn't that good..very narrow and only recommendable for old 4WDs....you'll get some more scratches on your car! It took us about an hour to go back to the HWY...anyway, good cache

Dopped TB

Great track for a 4wd parked about 3m from cache Awesome view Thanks

What an awesome 4WD into this cache. Parked on track and bush bashed the short distance to the cache and the view. WOW. TFTC

Could not find this cache looked everywhere but with no luck !!!!!!

Through brambles and bitey ants-anything for the cache!! TNLN TFT VIEW

Bob's USB #1 was here !!

After a couple of wrong path choices we arrived at the GZ and wow!!! Amazing view! TFTC!!!!

I took the walk along the beach, rather than the easy 4x4 track.
Fantastic scenery and bird life. You gotta love Esperance.
I'm starting to enjoy this game.
TNLN
Have Fun - WTFRWE

MMMMM. Were by ourselves so decided this one is good for another day when we have more time and maybe someone else with us. Been stuck on beaches before so did not want to risk it. Will Be Baaaaack! [:-)]

NICE DRIVE ALONG 4WD ACCESS VERY BUMPY. GREAT VIEW!! WATCH OUT FOR WASPS. OUCH JUST GOT BITTEN!!

Great drive glad we hd the all wheel drive took snake left watch. TFTC

Lucky I had been down this way around New years but didnt know about it then Luckly I found out I could take my adventra down most of this track then otherwise I dont think I would of found it or would of gone the wrong way very nice view can drive right upto this with in a couple of meters TNLN

Wow good 4wd around here!
We where on a long coastal trip from lake jasper to Esperance and off course picked some caches up on our way.

Had a lot of fun driving the 4WD track. Finding this one was an enjoyable challenge. Left a maze game and took the pirate GI Joe man.

Great walk on the beach. easy find. Great view. Cache was rather wet and dryed it out as best as I could. Took the poncho out and wraped the cache when I replaced it to protect it. But it will need a new container.

thanks espercache good one.

What an amazing view and the perfect place for a spot of lunch (just ask the March flies) well worth the effort getting here. Thanx espercach.

A beautiful coastal location. We decided to walk along the beach to gz and enjoyed the scenery and the inviting little pools that formed on the other side of the rock shelf. We did the small climb up the sand dune and found the cache after a short search. From there we did something I do not recommend to other geocachers. We decided to take the sand dune track back to the car. This resulted in a much longer walk that bought us back out on the main road which then meant another walk back to the carpark and the car. These things happen sometimes don't they . Thanks for showing us this location and placing the cache.

Found on our way to camping at Butty´s Head was an easy find. Took a few muggles along hope to convert them. Took domino´s game and left a G I Joe man.

What a view !!!
Another excellent Esperance beach,
Fishing was lowsy tho
Thanks Espercache for the drive and the views of our God's wonderful creation

thanks espercache

Found by baby&Mrs gopher at 1440. Nice secluded spot, great views. TFTH.

We where over in Esperance for a work trip and took the oportunity to collect some more caches in this very lovely part of the world. Bit of a walk along the beach, but the peace was bliss.

Drove quite a way on very rough in spots 4 wheel drive track. Walked last 20 minutes and located cache after short search. removed trackable coin and placed card dominoes game.

Was looking on the wrong side of the ledge for a while...

A beautiful walk from 11 Mile Beach. Too bad it wasn't a safe swimming spot! Took nothing, left GC. The contents are a bit damp.

I loved this one,beautiful spot,took china bridge coin,left nothing.tfth

Nice day for a walk along a beach that the local family hadn't even walked along. Found cache without too much trouble. Beautiful view but the swell was a bit big for a swim. T: LED Torch L: Wind Chime and Lead Ball.
TFTC

Drove into this one, but I think I took the wrong track. Easy drive in. Mind you I only had a 90 metre walk to the cache.

I took the fishing hand line and left an LED torch and China Bridge geocoin.

I cleaned and dried the cache as best as I could and re-bagged it. It needs a new geocaching card.

Thanks for the hunt. A photo has been added to this log.

Found it after a good look around,kids complained about the hike up the hill ,beautiful day beautiful veiw.Left yellow robot on wheel lost superball over edge of cliff
