It's All in a Name Bundaberg West, Queensland, Australia
By Team Fuddley (Adopted by youngoldfella) on 07-Oct-08. Waypoint GC1GZY7

Solved the puzzle quickly but it took several attempts to find an elusive parking spot near GZ. As we looped around looking for a parking space, we were amused by the inventive ways some drivers had chosen to park. Spotted the cache as we approached GZ. Quickly retrieved it using a TOTT. Recommend only accessing during daylight as there is a large homeless camp near GZ. Signed KATO (KabbellaQld and ToucanKB). Tftc

Out and about with KabbellaQld quick find once we found a park Tftc

Out and about today exploring Bundaberg Central with Grannan55 and Geodogs. On our way back to camp, thought I might pick this one up. Thanks for placing this cache here for me to find. All good here. Now, onto the next one for the day. TFTC

... Yes, it is I had a nice chat with the owner about the situation at the GZ. Thank you.TFTH

Stopped searching for this one short when found an addicts drug stash (literally full needle hanging from a wire ) and its owner nearby watching.

Travelled to the Coral Coast with RoddyC and Hatzofff to stay for a few says and find as many caches as possible. Today we cached with GEM_54.Cache located, log signed by all and replaced as found TFTC

Out caching with hatzofff and Imbunda while staying locally for a few nights. With GEM_54.A bit of a height challenge. Log signed and cache replaced as found at 1:43 PM on June 20, 2024. TFTC, Team Fuddley (Adopted by youngoldfella).

Day 2 in the Coral Coast area. It is a nice sunny day. Nice little bit of exercise.Caching with RoddyC GEM54 and imbundaTFTCache Team Fuddley (Adopted by youngoldfella)

We called out here a few days back but couldn't find a place to park. Being Sunday, we called back. Strolled over to G.Z. soon realised we will need tott to get this one . Signed and returned cache to its hide.. tftc

We took a daytrip up to Bundy chasing a select handful of caches to fulfill some challenges. This was one of our shortlist. Made a quick find in the rain thanks to the helpful hint. At least the weather meant there were no muggles about. Although there did appear to be a family permanently living in tents here and using the undercover area as their home. Very sad state of affairs but glad to see they hadnt been kicked out of the park at least. At GZ we found a pair of glasses in the ground which we have placed on the wall in case anyone was looking for them.

TFTC! good hide

Not too hot, a nice cool breeze and even with the road noise them is a calm and peacefulness about this location. My Little wife Geomum007 wouldn't have stood a chance of getting this without me or a step ladder LOL. TFTC

Finally got around to quickly solving this one, found with TheKiltedKacher, I'm glad he's tall, I wouldn't have had a hope without a step ladder! TFTC!

This puzzle was solved quite a long time ago and each time we were in Bundy we did not get the chance to find it. Today we arrived at GZ and were pleased we had our small step ladder in the car to assist with the retrieval. All good here, log signed and replaced as found. Thanks for the puzzle and cache youngoldfella.

Returning to Brisbane from QOGM 2023 with MorganEd who is visiting from New Zealand. We stayed in Bundaberg overnight and had the day caching and touristing before heading off to Maryborough for our last night on the road.Logs were signed MEEC1-the ME for MorganEd and the EC1 for me. All good here.This trip was bookended by MorganEds flights from and back to New Zealand so it was a limited selection of caches on our rather hurried journey. As soon as we arrived, I knew I'd been here before but at night. Today it was daytime and a lot less scary than before. I also knew what was required so we made a quick find here. TFTC

Tftf aroha and happy caching from new zealand

Brought our little ladder and all went well. TFTC

Solved in preparation for a road trip.

Today it was a quick jump to get the cache.

TFTC.

Yay! Our first Bundaberg cache. We’re here for a few days from Sydney before heading over to Lady Elliot Island. Mrs Gaztek solved this in-your-face puzzle whose name is absolutely accurate after days at staring at it. Then came the forehead slap! We are staying close enough to walk to GZ and disappointed to find pedestrians are not welcome on this bridge. We saw what need to be done and Mr Gaztek gave Mrs G some assistance. Unfortunately she ended up going over on her ankle (container, of course, held tightly in her grasp!) So the ice pack is on while we log. Then off to Grunskes for early dinner. SL TFTC Cheers…. Gaztek

Catching up on some logs. Just reachable with my little step. TFTC

Solved this one a few days ago knowing we were coming to Bundy. Another cache where being tall with long arms was an advantage. TFTC

The riddle was like a gift, I was able to retrieve the box with a trekking pole and put it back accurately. I was a bit irritated that an animal eye was watching me the whole time.

I love coming to Bundaberg and am lucky that my husband has customers to see here and i can tag along. We had a room overlooking the river not far away but i thought i might need a TOTT to reach the cache so we drove and parked not far away and took a look first and of course the TOTT was needed . I was happy to solve this puzzle to find today. THanks for all the fun

On a New Years getaway down from Townsville for a bit of Jolly Brolly Folly and some other targets as part of a catch up with Townsville’s finest DNFer Greencordial
I wasn’t as vertically challenged as I first thought upon looking back at the GZ so i didn’t need the step. Just a bit of a shimmy
Thanks youngoldfella for this hide GC1GZY7 It's All in a Name. Nicely done

Zooming around in Bundy to do a few labs.
Stopped here for a solved puzzle.

Find number 28438 for me.
Thank you youngoldfella for hiding this geocache.

After some much needed rest we decided to stay put in and around Bundaberg to grab some caches and do a little exploring.

We wandered on over to GZ and instantly spotted the hide as we got closer. Retrieving the cache took a few attempts as we’re not gifted with height.

Thanks for bringing us here.

#3206 - TFTC

We arrived at GZ and soon spotted the cache. Lucky Mr SKI can still jump, even if he barely gets off the ground these days!

Day 3 in Bundaberg. We opted for a quieter day with 2 Adventure Labs in town and a few remaining caches there, then headed over the river and out in a coastal direction. It meant we had a quieter time in town before business got busier and then gave us the opportunity to head out into can farming country and finally to the river. An interesting drive.
We found traditionals, some pre-solved puzzles and a couple of multis before the rain arrived and sent us home.

Thank you for your efforts in creating and maintaining the cache youngoldfella.
**SKI Pair****

There was someone camping directly at GZ so we decided to abandon attempts at finding this one.

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. This one was on my solved list for when I was last here but never got around to grabbing. I had to use Maddie for a little extra height here a) to see it and b) to grab it. Then I had to use here again to put it back, lol. An easy find and I am sure it has been replaced at least once in it’s life. Thanks for keeping it alive.

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

Since I couldn’t go to Townsville. I decided that Maryborough was the place to cache day 1. Found 71 dnf 2. Over all was a good day caching.
Thank you for the placement of this Geoart.

Day 2, up to Bundaberg today, had a target cache of course I need it for challenge cache. Plus 3 AL’s.

Sorry for the generic log.

*TFTC*

A short walk to GZ and then the fun started trying to retrieve the cache because I'm vertically challenged - thank goodness for my walking stick and soon had the cache in hand. Then it was fun to return it back to its lair but got there in the end. TFTC youngoldfella

Found as I meander my way from Adelaide to Cairns.

With no real travel plan and three weeks to get there before I meet up with friends, there has been plenty of opportunity for sightseeing and finding a few selected caches along the way.

The puzzle was one of many solved prior to leaving home in preparation for my trip. Although my itinerary when I travel is generally very fluid, I do like to have a menu of pre-solved puzzles that I can target along the way.

Just a bit of a stretch!

Thanks youngoldfella for the puzzle and the cache.

Logging old caches originally found with alphag_25. Now have my own account and logging them separately so that i can claim the finds or not as the case may be. TFTC.

24/6/21 On holidays from Mackay in Bundaberg for some caching fun. Thanks for placing this cache for my enjoyment. TFTC SL Been to the Bundy Factory and Brewed Drinks today. Solved easy puzzle. White man can jump.

Our last chance to look for this was a late afternoon walk. Peak hour is not the most ideal time for crossing streets... Bundaberg becomes a hectically busy place. But not GZ, GZ was desserted. [^] It was also getting a bit dark.

Spotted the cache easily but getting it... ? Retrieved by MrG with the help of a natural little TOTT. I was wondering how this was going to pan out in reverse but a perfect little lob had it nestled back in place. TFTC youngoldfella, loved the puzzle!

Had a few homeless people in the nearby seating area so I had to wait a while for them to not be paying attention. After a few brushes with the tip of my fingers I was able to claim the cache. First one in Bundy for years.

Noice

I did monkey up the sign thinking the hint may have had a double meaning but alas not, all within easy reach of my 6'6 self.

Tftc

Tftc team fuddley, quick find at GZ, thanks for the puzzle. All good here.

Staying in Bundy for a few days and finding some caches in the region. Needed tippy toes but no tools. Quick find here

Tuesday. Mr Slow Puncture made the grab on this one (with the help of a nearby tott). We soon had the log signed and replaced as found. Nice quick find.

This was the 11th of 12 caches found on this outing.

Thanks ***youngoldfella*** for showing us this place

We found it. We had to be sneaky.

Solved this one after we arrived in Bundaberg, today was the day for local caches. Found a TOTT close by to retrieve the container. Stamped log and replaced. Thanks to Youngoldfella.

TFTC,
Saw how to solve this one quickly, getting a last few before moving on tomorrow.
Had coffee in town this morning with locals and after some necessary purchases it was time to get a few local caches.
Signed the log.

TFTC smile 6950 out and about with Echocage1 and miss Millie geo dog having a great time FP



Thank you, youngoldfella for placing this cache for our enjoyment.

Day 3 in Bundy wirth Di Morgan, headed north from Bundy and somehow we managed to stay off dirt roads, maybe because it was the Pajero's turn to be used. Lovely sunny day after that storm front that came through last night which cut short the happy hour. all caches in good order.

Bundaberg Day 3
Our caching partners for today was the Snakepitters. Lucky we had John with us or we would not have been able to reach it as was stated.
This was a puzzle that I had not seen before.
Thanks for placing this cache youngoldfella

Quick find, signed and returned log after doing all the hard work for Scratches.
TFTC

Had presolved this one (surely that can't be it? checker says yes!) very glad BH86 was with me as I would have had no chance of reaching it on my own!

TFTC

Some heavy rain forecasts scuttled the planned Bromance camping weekend in North NSW. The forecast around Bundy looked reasonable, and there were 70 FTF's with some generous DT up for grabs. Swellerfungus opted to continue the repairs arising from his 10 cent bathroom washer replacement (current cost is into the $1,000's), leaving the Bromance Lite* heading north early this morning.

We always check to see what unloved caches are about before a road trip and this one, with some 2 1/2 years without a find, fell out of the search. A must do! Whilst the vertically challenged Seff was considering the hide, Jezndez adjusted elevations and made the find,

Many thanks youngoldfella

Despite the poor weather forecast, Crookedpete, JezNDez and I set off on an impromptu road trip from Brisbane to Bundaberg chasing a large patch of potential FTF 's which appeared to still be on offer. After encountering rain on the drive up, we lucked in with the rest of the day remaining pretty well precipitation free. In the end, a great day to be out caching.

In the limited time I had to plan this trip last night, I noticed that this cache, which had not been found since 5/7/2017, had just been replaced. Some nice unloved for Dez for her Unloved Challenge accumulation, so we made sure to call in for a visit, although the configuration of the roads in this area meant we almost drove out of Bundaberg before we could find a way to turn in the direction we needed to be. Dez went high and Crookedpete and I headed low and between us we were able to spot our target and retrieve the cache. TFTC

All good to go. I have replace it with a Camo magnetic eclipse tin. It is above 170cm from the ground. Have fun.

I only adopted this one on 01/02/2020 and will get to it very soon to check and replace.

It's All in a Name was transferred from Fuddley to user youngoldfella

rio and i are off to bargara for a couple of days
a couple of stops along the way
and a nice wonder through the forest looking for some bones [:o)]

day 2 and off to bundy for the day

the puzzle was cool

Last note from anyone replacing this cache was in 2017.

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Solved puzzle. Found actual ground zero but did not find cache. Did not have ladder but unless cache is very small I wonder if it is still there. Has not been found for over a year.

Container missing. Will replace as soon as I can make a new one.

Mr Felix solved this puzzle a few days ago, but today a thorough search and we came up empty.

Took me a few minutes to figure out the mystery and such a clever hide TFTC

Found this one BFE-style on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Nice hide.

Cool little hide! Found BFE style

Great hide! Found BFE style TFTC

Little tricky puzzle but got help with Dranyer too easy and nice hide fav point from me! TFTC

Tftc

I have replaced the container, did the best I could in a short time with limited resources (budget was low this week due to next week's event) but should be adequate. I will try and make a slightly better cache up for this hide when I can gather better materials.

Claiming a find as I have replaced the cache after consulting with a previous finder to get a rough idea of how it was hidden.

After discussing earlier today with a previous finder, I will be trying my best to replace this container over the next few days.

Went today to look for a fellow geocacher who has tried to find it with no luck, just to see if it was there.
Sorry but its missing which is such a shame cause it was well hidden - even the way it was blended in is missing
No cache log, no container - its all gone

Worked out where GZ was, checked on checker and was correct. Went to GZ for GC and even took a step just in case. Not anywhere to be found even after widening search area.
Can CO please check GC is still active.

We have no idea how to solve this puzzle at all. Can someone please point me in the right direction on how to crack coordinates? Thanks in advance B-)

10:00PM

Solved the co-ordinate quickly, and confirmed. Went to the GZ - and nothing. Found the likely hiding spot based on the description, however there was nothing there. Widended the search - though nothing else matched the description - and still not cache - and I'm not vertically challenged! There are security cameras pointed towards the GZ - not sure how long they have been there - so potentially the cache has been removed! Would be ideal if the C/O could do a confirmation, especially because this cache has not been found for 2 months!

TFTH, Fuddley.
Jay of GemJay.

Yes it really is All in A Name
Oh gosh do I have a story to share about this cache....
So i was having trouble trying to figure out the riddle to this one, well the co-ordinate were there the whole time!!!
And then I decided to go on my gut instincts of where could it be! So I drive out there a few weekends ago, and couldn't see it even though it was hidden in plain sight.
Then I go back with my geoson today because a few wonderful geocaches pointed me in the right direction to work out the co-ordinates - BINGO, it was where my gut instincts were!
Put him up onto my shoulders after many attempts, he is way heavier than I realised, and fell over a few times....could only imagine what people thought if they were around to watch, luckily there wasn't anyone!! Bingo he found it before I could.
Oh and by the way the toilet block was there two weeks ago, today it was gone, gee they sure moved fast taking it down!!

Just couldn't leave it alone. Did some more googling on solving mystery caches and something that had been niggling at me from the beginning made me think. Bingo!!! It really was all in a name.

If you are new, don't give up. Its possible

SL & TFTC

Well I'm stumped. Need to DNF

Looked where I thought but nothing seemed to be right. At least I got my exercise for the day...

If anyone is willing to message me some more clues I would be grateful.

While camping at Bundaberg with Geodad (Whitey Wiskas) and Geodog (Scruffy) ...
We just had to go out and find a few caches ..

All Good .. TFTC ..

P.s. not sure who gmw511 is ?? (Geodad's Alzheimer's at it's best .... )

It was on the ground. Obviously fallen out. We replaced it. Found with gmw511. TFTC.

I fairly liked this hide. TFTC

So I did some prep by solving a few puzzles
... and this was one of them.
Spotted the prize, and retrieved with a bit of teamwork
Finally got my 2015 Roadtrip Puzzle Souvenir

After a morning on the geocycle I was back in the geomobile to get to some of the caches further out of town.

I had solved some of the puzzles before heading up here, and this was one of them Not too hard a puzzle at all. The checker confirmed my answers, so I just needed to get to GZ.

I came well prepared with two assistants for this one, and I needed them both. Not one for the under tall at all

Thanks for a nice puzzle and an interesting hide.

Naturally we didn't read the CO's description (do we ever?) that would have steered us to bring certain equipment. Although the Doctor is not particularly vertically challenged, nor would he make it onto the basketball team. So after a bit of fruitless jumping about like a total idiot, he employed the "go go gadget arms" (patent pending) that worked well in both directions. Thanks for the challenge & the exercise Team Fuddley.

Together with Silli1310, we went travelling for a year. Australia was one of our favourite destinations, so we spent almost four months there. After exploring Tasmania extensively, we are now heading north along the east coast in a bus until we are no longer allowed to go any further. This morning we started from our campsite near Rainbow Beach in the direction of Bargara. After taking a nice walk along the beach in Bargara and getting away from the road for a while, we headed towards Sharron Gorge in the late afternoon, close to our destination for the day. While we were driving, we noticed this easy mystery cache to solve. We soon had plausible coordinates on paper and were able to quickly head for it before dinner. Many thanks for the cache.

On our [trip around the world](http://www.hoppundweg.piekar.de/) we came to Australia as well. We started in Tasmania, rented a campervan in Melbourne and went up the Eastcoast to Cairns. Then we drove all the way to the Red Centre. We finished in Darwin. We searched many caches and found almost every cache we searched for . Thanks to all the owners of these caches. Now, 2 years later, we recognized, we will never be able to log every cache seperately... So: Sorry for this standard logtext and thanks for one of the caches, which accompanied us on our journey.

Just finished work, thought I would come and find this little bugger. After 4 laps and repeating the hint over and over it finally clicked. TFTC!

Lucky there was two of us! Tftc awesomr hide:)

It took us a short while to find the right way into GZ and with the CO heading us in the right we managed to find this well hidden cache bringing the necessary height extender as we are vertically challenged!
TFTC Fuddley - much appreciated.

Tagged along with bucketeer to find this cache
Apologies for the late log
Thanks

07/09/2014 9:04:00 PM
We stopped off to grab this one after doing the night cache and heading back to pick up Mrs bucketeer from Sharon. A quick find but it took a bit of effort retrieve and replace.
Thanks

cache find # 1739. Once the penny dropped, the puzzle was easy to solve. When we arrived at Gz, it was on a Saturday and in between rain showers. We had just the right implement to be able to gain access to the cache, and put it back again once we signed the log. TFTC.

Working on my 7 Souvenirs for August this one just had to be done. Glad I had my taller GeoBuddy Minkosdes with me.

TFTC

Fairy Mother and I came to Bundy to work on our '7 Souvenirs of August' and this cache has helped us get there by not only being a great little cache but also unlocking the 'The Puzzler' souvenir for us.

Thanks for the cache 'Fuddley' and also for the exercise on getting the bloody little thing and getting back to its home!

Another one of our 7 Souvenirs Of August is now complete My MinkosDes can jump high

TFTC Fuddley. All in good order.

A picture tells a thousand words. Cache right beside my work! Height def an issue - needed a boost from dad! TFTC

I am taking part in the 27th Annual Great Endeavour Rally with two mates, one of who is a fellow geocacher and part of the KJTJMJ team, in a 24 year old EA Falcon. We are travelling from Brisbane to Warwick, Noccundra, Cameron Corner, Haddons Corner, and back to Brisbane via Bundaberg. This have me a chance to get some caches along the way! Knowing Bundaberg was the last stop I set about some puzzle solving so I would be prepared!

We finally arrived in Bundaberg today, and had the afternoon free after our street parade to go caching.
KJTJMJ and I searched in all the wrong places until I finally reread the. Cache description, and then we knew exactly where it would be! After combining to overcome the verticle challenge we soon had the cache in hand.
Very nice hide, and a beautiful spot for a cache as the photo in the description shows!

Team work with dad finding it. Had to lift me up to get it. Great place to put it.

My daughter and I were in the area attempting the night caches , and this is one I missed on the last trip when we came for the Harriet Island caches...so close, right? Lucky I brought her with me, because I had to throw her on my shoulders.

Thanks Fuddley.
