Cherwell truck stop Bundaberg, Queensland, Australia
By halez1993 on 02-Jun-20. Waypoint GC8T4V6

Our first find on the Fraser Coast LGA means that we can now tick this LGA off our target list. That now completes 40 LGAs in Queensland and meets all requirements for a challenge in South Australia. Thanks for the cache.

Stopped off from busy highway, theres a defined trampled path to the tree, but its a good thing cache is not actually at tree due to the lack of toilets here

We are on the move again with ilook4geo and doing some more caching as we go. This was a nice easy find and all was put back into place before we headed off again. Thanks for this cache placement go to halez1993.

Out hunting caches while travelling further south with goingplaces2. Made a few stops along the way to pick up some finds. This was a successful one. All good here. TFTC.

frmen1 and I are heading south and needed a few quick ones in this LGA. And quick it was. Pulling out was a prolonged event as the traffic was heavy. TFTC

Accurate coords and in good condition. Thanks for putting a cache here. Found with tassie expat while passing through.

Cache on the way home from Childers Sugar Festival.One extra smilie for the day.Thanks for placing the cache.

Have driven past here for many years now, and today stopped to make a find, stumbled over a block of hidden concrete on way to GZ, and struck plastic on my first sweep with my antisnake, rake, so a quick find, ane signed log, replaces where found, Thanks halez1993, hide is in good condition

Departed Melbourne many weeks ago now and have been travelling north for the winter, well, for the northern warmth actually (hopefully ), passing through as many small towns as I can grabbing the odd cache here and there as I travel.
Finally made the northern warmth and the Cape and we have loved every minute of it now we are on our way home again and having many more adventures as we slowly travel south.
Today, we travelled from Bundaberg to Perigean Springs on the Sunshine Coast (visiting friends), we grabbed a cache on the way and one or two when we arrived.
A quick find today as we stopped to check on the caravan.

Quick find with SJG66. TFTC.

Found with O319 as we headed south

Having never been to Hervey Bay before, I arrived on 24th July after driving from Yass NSW (just outside of ACT). Here for a couple weeks and couldn’t miss the chance to pick up a couple of caches. It’s a great way to explore an area and go to places I may not have gone.

Today allrounder and I headed to Bundaberg for a drive. After grabbing some lunch and a look around we headed back to Hervey Bay, a quick pitstop here to let the geopooch have a break as well as grabbing the cache.

A quick find, log signed and replaced. Cache log and container are in good condition.

Hi there halez1993, we found your cache Cherwell truck stop today.

We started the day off by nominating a cache cluster in an area we would like to visit, and then took a route that was determined (mostly) by the next closest cache as determined by our GPS.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour around the area and ended up finding a variety of container types, sizes and ratings.

Coordinate Accuracy: We found this cache close to where our GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: Good.

Regards

TFTC.

We had to drive past this one on our way north, but it was easy to stop on the return journey. A nice quick find and back on our way.

Today we left Bundaberg after some great sightseeing and caching and headed for Hervey Bay. As we weren't traveling far we stopped and picked up caches on our way where it was safe to do so. This involved a stop in Chiders where we walked around town and had a look around. A nice lunch was had at the bakery there.
Once at Hervey Bay we set up camp and had a relax before heading out to do some more caching and sightseeing. We particularly enjoyed the drive along the coast.
All up a day with plenty of variety; traditionals, multi, wherigos, and Labs on our journey.

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache halez1993.

Nice rest area beautiful sunny ️

A fair amount of traffic on the road but none in the truck stop. Thank you for great co-ords that led us directly to the cache. All is good with the cache. SL TFTC

A trip north with the girls to visit some friends. After a great night catching up we then headed to the flourish festival in the park, the girls loved playing on all the rides and so forth.
A drive around Bundy collecting caches and eats. Now it was time to head into Maryborough again and stay the night for some Mary Poppins in the morning. We headed down Goodwood road and collected caches as we passed. We saw this one on our way to bundy and said we have to stop there on the way back, so we did. An easy find here and a quick sign then back into the car.

Thanks for the cache, with the log signed and the cache returned as found, we were then off to another in the area.

Another good cache found with woolwood9.
*Enjoyed the drive / walk around.*

Heading back to Maryborough, we stopped off here to get out of the line of traffic. Every time I have passed by here, there has been vehicles here. This afternoon, there was no one about, so that meant that we could search for the cache. Once again, my caching buddy made a quick find. (Thank you) With our names added to the log and everything returned as found, we continued on our way. TFTC

We stopped in Maryborough to break up the drive and thought we better grab a few on our way through. So, we thought we would grab this on the way in.

Within minutes we had the cache in hand. We quickly added our ink mark to the logbook and replaced as found. As we started to walk back to the car JLK started drafting this log.

Thank you for the cache placement and maintenance Halez1993

Found it. Great hide, log signed. Took nothing but left a couple things in. TFTC!

On the hunting trail again with SeasonedBird. I’ll leave the more interesting detailed log to Mrs Geo (aka: SeasonedBird, Salty Chook, the Old Boiler, Old Chook, Dirty Bird or Angry Bird) because she writes so much more eloquently than I and usually has much more time to do so while I’m driving. It’s a great day for caching. TFTC halez1993

Bundaberg to Hervey Bay stopping for one cache along the way.
We have set up camp down near the Marina for a couple of days. A couple of ALs & a few new caches in town since we were last here.
We do enjoy our return visits to town, caching is a good way to tour the area, we found a good variety of caches, some in places we had not visited before.
Thankyou halez1993 for placing this cache.

Day 19 of a 3 week holiday driving from Canberra to Townsville and back to attend the Mega. Today was Rockhampton to Nambour ticking off a few more counties. Cache soon found. TFTC.

#14366 - 9:59:00 AM; Day seventeen of the Townsville Mega adventure with Sol de lune. Left Bundaberg lthis morning heading for Caboolture, collecting caches along the way to add some more counties to the collection as well as some adventure labs as well. All caches were found in good condition unless noted in the log. Logs signed L.L10n & Sdl or vice versa. TFTC halez1993

Day 17 of the road trip to Townsville with LuckyL10n for the mega and today was day 4 of the drive back to Canberra.

After a second night in Bundy it was time to head off for Caboolture, with a few stops along the way of course. Heading along the back road to Childers we stopped for a few interesting caches to help with a few different cache types. No issue with any of the first few and the caches were all in good condition.

Many thanks for yet another cache on the trip....

Coordinates pretty much spot on. Came with a torch. Coming back from THE MEGA

I AM GUR

Thanks for the easy find. Good shady spot to rest on bicycles heading north, even seats.

Took a little to find the tricky hiding spot but me and the kids had a blast looking

Quick and easy find as our caching weekend comes to an end.

No luck here today

Stopped in here for a look but no luck for us.
The area was quite clean so we thought has the cache been cleaned up as well.
It's one we'll have to look for again next time we pass by.
