Went back to this one with some friends and couldn't locate it again. Could the owner please check that it is still here?
Yay found it. Unfortunately the log book was saturated and I didn't have any replacements. It's a bit yucky. Didn't even know the plaque was there and I was born here. Thanks for taking us to an unknown part of town (despite many people driving past). Even went and read the plaque once the cache was found and log book was signed.
Thanks for the hide.

OrangeMaple found this one while I looked after the pack. Nice and quiet this time of year and very little traffic this time of evening. Couldn't sign the logbook as it was very wet (though our indents might be visible) and we didn't have anything to tidy it up. Thanks for the cache. I hope to get back to tidy it up but not sure how long it will be.
This was an easy find, just hope all the other Gladstone caches are as easy. TFTC
Out doing some night caches! On way home from crystal bay to glady and then bribie island! TFTC
Found this one right on dusk. The mozzies almost carried us away. Found quickly by one of the geosavages while i was searching in the wrong spot.
Thanks for the cache Bundy!

Left the caravan at the free stay, again, for another assault on Gladstone caches.
A good variety for a small community.
Found this one in good condition and well hidden.

Finally got around to grabbing this cache. It's a good spot for a cache plenty of room to pull over.

Nice cool evening cache by the river to finish the day off.... Well so I thought, the midges have nearly finished me off!!!!! Left Geocoin. TFTC
Left Yepoon fairly late this morning to cruise down the road to Gladstone picking up what sound like a good choice of caches for the day nailed this one amongst many others and now it's time to find a quite spot in town knock p some nosh and hit the sack. TFTC
Found on the great Eclipse Trip of 2012 with I felt like a Bundy about now.
A day of caching from Koumala to Boyne Island. A road trip with a chance to stretch the legs is a good thing.
Thanks to Bundyrumandcoke and clear skies from TeamAstro.

With the caravan parked at the Calliope Rest stop we took off in the car heading towards Gladstone to pick up some caches. A beautiful day and an interesting assortment of caches kept us entertained.
Thanks to Bundyrumandcoke.

When work calls you must answer, And with nearly all of the caches in Townsville and surrounding areas with a smiley face on them, this was an opportunity to boost our numbers. Not looking forward to having to take the Monkeys to visit all these again, as they always insist that I do when I find caches on my own. Plan is to also collect all those cache types that we don't see in Townsville. See how we go.
Another quick and easy find, however I nearly tore the front of the Cache Racer off getting over that little lip. A bunch of road work guys were watching me but they were more concerned about the Cache Racer to worry what I was doing. Considered doing some circle work on their freshly graded dirt, but I'm not like that........ anymore.

Easy find, but the box needs an update! It is damaged
TFTC and greetings from Germany says Poparni!!!

No idea how the log has remained dry, the container is cracked, the zip lock broken and everything else was wet.
Nice easy find.
Nice easy find.
I negotiated all the roadwork webbing to find a park not too far from GZ. Read the plaque then found the cache. SL. TFTC Bundyrum&coke
Another nice easy find I think i picked all the easy ones today, which suits the midget well. TFTC
We seem to be doing the Bundy series backwards. We started somewhere around Emerald. SL. TFTC
Another beautiful and sunny day in Gladstone...easy drive by and it was found by Ms Bushies2. Thanks Bundyrumandcoke.
Found it on our trip to Gladstone for the Ulysses Club Odyssey, on a very cold day.The GPS beeped as we were approaching Gladstone so we had a quick pull off the road and there was another one! Wow! Have the cachers been busy in this area. Wish we had a few more days. TNLN TFTC.
Had a quick search last Sunday on the way out of town but must have had a boys look. Came back with Geowife and Geokids and came up with the goods.
Found at 0925. Have taken out the clue. Very out in the open place to be at this time of the morning. The lid on this systema is perished. I had my repair kit in the car so I have sealed the lid with clear gaffer tape and this should keep the moisture out. I have placed the log book in a clip seal bag and placed the container in a bag also. Have concealed the container well at original GZ TNLNSL TFTC
Crossed the bridge and followed a geotrail to this cache as well. Quick find but I was looking too high to start with.
Found this one...Twice now and keep forgetting to log it...
Went for adrive to Marmor to look at some old tractors and picked up this one on our way...
Thanks!

My bouncy GPS had us searching 10m away initially, crawling through grass looking for the cache, and then our caching instincts kicked in and we headed for the real GZ, where the cache was soon located. I'm embarrassed to say that we both completely forgot to go and read the plaque But TFTC! ='.'=
We really should have checked the obvious place first but found it in the end. TFTC
Another quick find - lots of traffic on the nearby road, this is indeed a very industrious area.
The first of hopefully a few in this series I hope to do. A nice easy find, thanks Bundyrumandcoke.
Bonjour from French Canadians,
Holidaying from Quebec, Canada. Having a geocaching great time in Australia!!
Last caching day in Gladstone.
Our last cache in Gladstone, thanks Bundyrumandcoke for all those nice caches.

A quick find on a cool morning. This city is like a mini Wollongong with that amazing industrial scene on the way in & the roar of the power station. Given what these big companies have planned it will surely surpass anything that an industrial centre in NSW has to offer. Hopefully the natural beauty will be retained as far as possible although the mangroves have given way. Thanks.
I think it might take us a few years to complete this series
Loved the area and the free camping is was awesome
We will definitely come back here
Cheers and thanks for the cache

We recently completed your 15 caches for the series travelling to the east from Emerald. We thoroughly enjoyed all of your caches and the great effort you have gone to to not only provide these 15 but many others on the route that we travelled. We were so looking forward to getting all of the co-ords and then finding the extra cache as a reward for our efforts. However, we got all 15 number and despite spending a whole night and day trying to make sense of them we couldn't - we certainly never thought of multiplying them by 2! We had to leave the area without getting the special one. Today on the internet I have found that you have extra cache details that tell us what to do with these co-ordinates but they are listed under cache no. GC1FDP4. Your notes just say collect the co-ords and you will have the extra cache, it doesn't say anything about GC1FDP4 cache notes and instructions. As I never looked up GC1FDP4 cache notes before my trip away, I was unaware of its existance until now when I am sitting at home in Brisbane. Perhaps on your 1st and 15th caches you can refer cachers to the appropriate additional cache (east or west) so that others like myself don't do the trip and not get the satisfaction of finishing it. Thanks again for the many caches and the great fun and history lessons you provided us with during our trip. . . . Stigglepot & eatmorchikin
Went to grab the geocoin today to take with us on our move north but discoverrd that it has gone missing. A check of the geocoin log showed that no one has logged it as being picked up.
Found this on a quiet time of day at 6pm at night. However there were midgies galore who launched an immediate attack on us. We are proud to say we have now found the 15 / 15 caches set by BundyRumandCoke and have all of the clues, but what **** do we do with these clues? They don't make any sense to us at all. Took geocoin and went off to our tent site to ponder over the clues to try and make co-ordinates out of them to find the special cache. . . .I hope we are going to be able to work this out, else we will feel extremely disappointed....... eatmorchikin & Stigglepot, Brisbane.
Yes!! Yes!! At Last!! I have trying to find this one on numerous occasions for months now. It was driving me up the wall. I was on my way to Rockhampton last Thursday 24th September and decided to try again. This time I found it. I must have walked past it at least 10 times. I felt like kicking myself when I found it. Saw the geocoin inside but left it there. Thanks once again Bundy.
Stopped by to drop of GC "B is for #@#@#" which only wanted to go into caches starting with "B"
4.15pm Quick, easy find. Not sure if or when we'll track down the rest in this series but it was there so we made a start. TFTC.
Thought I would head home this way after a day of appointments and caching and pick up the last two of Bundys Commute on the way. Found No1 OK. Thanks Bundy.
No2 was a different story. Road repairs in progress with about a dozen traffic controllers and machinery. Waited at the rest area for half hour or so, but no luck. Must have been on overtime. No2 will have to wait for another day.

Nice little Hide,
My GPS was doing some strange things in this area.
I grabbed both Coins, We will drop them off around the Townsville area in a couple of weeks

Found with Matt_stomper on our way back to Gladstone from our New Year Celebrations in Townsville. A nice quick drive by cache to break the trip. TFTC
Commute cache 4 of 4 from rocky to Gladstone. Will have to take the trip to get the other 8. Found with Shell_Seeker. TFTC
Decided to do all "Bunys Commute's Cache" for the day. Start from here. Found the cache at 9.30am. Ready for next #2. Thanks Bundy For organising the cache and hunt.
Well, as it happens, I was one of the first people to officially use this construction - I was employed by the company which built it and I did a significant amount of the ground work for the establishment and commissioning of the plant the company built there. Things have changed a bit since then - it was a fantastic place in essentially pristine bushland. Now it is all a bit of a mess. Those were wonderful days and the Yarwun to East End (via Mt Larcom) dirt roads were great. I am glad I was part of it all. I am glad someone put a cache here. Thank you for this cache.
Regards,
Pseudo-Geek.

Well after driving in circles (might not have been but certainly felt like it) I came back to this one. Strange place for a plaque but a good place for a cache.
Nice easy find, signed the log at 12.20pm.
Unfortunately left here and came face to face with that 8m wide load I had been in front of out of Gin Gin.
