Unable to locate
 
09-Aug-14
Went back to this one with some friends and couldn't locate it again. Could the owner please check that it is still here?
 
26-Dec-13
A new log book is required as current one is wet and container is smelly.
 
26-Dec-13
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.

Nice easy find today although I suspected a different type of container. TFTC.

Thanks for the cache Bundy!
 
23-Jun-13
Left the caravan at the free stay, again, for another assault on Gladstone caches.

18-Nov-12
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.

tftc
cache was totally waterlogged so could not sign log book. did what we could to dry it out, but still damp when we replaced it. needs maintenance...
 
31-Jul-12
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.

# 2795 @ 15:38 on our Qld holiday

A quick find, thanks Bundyrumandcoke

# 313 C+2M Operation Bris Vegas or bust # 24

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.

10-Jun-11
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.
 
28-May-11
Didn't even know this plaque existed. Cache is in poor condition. Cheers
 
16-May-11
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

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 Red Face But TFTC! ='.'=
 
28-Nov-10
We really should have checked the obvious place first but found it in the end. TFTC
 
27-Oct-10
TFTC. A quick, easy find. Took nothing, left a bell.Smile
 
Another quick find - lots of traffic on the nearby road, this is indeed a very industrious area.
 
29-Jul-10
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.

04-Jul-10
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.
 
13-May-10
I think it might take us a few years to complete this series Wink
Loved the area and the free camping is was awesome
We will definitely come back here

Cheers and thanks for the cache

My first find ever - Wahooo

Took me a little while but I worked it out
 
13-Dec-09
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.
 
29-Nov-09
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.
 
23-Nov-09
Thanks for this cache
Cheers Kalipi
 
08-Nov-09
Found nice and easy. Saw geocoin but left as is. TFTC
 
28-Sep-09
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.
 
17-Aug-09
Stopped by to drop of GC "B is for #@#@#" which only wanted to go into caches starting with "B"
 
01-Aug-09
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.

05-Jul-09
Now I have no1 I just need to complete the ones in the middle. TFTH
 
18-Jun-09
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.
 
08-May-09
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

Didn't even need the GPS for this one, Nice easy one, thanks
 
02-Nov-08
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.

TFTC
 
24-Sep-08
Found it No. 682 ... on our trip to No. 15
