A Heap of Junk Bundaberg East, Queensland, Australia
By ihewman on 09-Jan-13. Waypoint GC443MP

I'm going to pull this one down, but in its place is going a new series of brilliant caches!

The heap of junk has been burnt and probably the cache too.

Until I find a new container for this cache, it will be out of action.

Walked much further than necessary but found it.

Took: Marble
Left: Key ring of everybody's favourite footy team.

Got past the 2 kangaroos guarding it but got it in the end.

Took a marble.
Left a balloon.

The Geodog loved the walk to to find this cache hide. [^] [^] TFTC ihewman

Once again in Bundy so that Pertunia can visit the doll show. Fortunately did my homework on this one as I was surprised to find a locked gate across what appeared to be a public road on the map. Easy find once I got to the GZ. TFTC

Me bike ride took me way out on the northside of Bundy today and I found meself wobbling along the sandy tracks here to find a heap of junk
Well that is what Geocaching is all about, isn't it ?
Who knows where you may end up

The heap of junk was not as bad as I was fearing [^]
There has been some work going on out here and much replanting of trees and shrubs.

I did expect a real rubblish tip out here,
but instead found just an olde tyre that was obviously way past its use by date when it was finally removed from whatever car it had been attached to !!

Nearby I found me the cache, safe and sound

TFTC and detour into the back blocks of Bundy-Berg,
where polar bears lurk [:o]

We did enjoy our stroll, on this lovely sunny morning, into finding this cache from Sheridan St(the gate was locked ) It was a good hide with some junk about! TFTC ihewman and for another good hide.

Good hide

Nice easy find after a short walk from Sheridan St. Took TB, TFTC!

Thanks ihewman for the hunt today

A Comfortable stroll to GZ and the cache.TFTC SL Took marble,Left Plastic ducks. Dropped off TB

Time for my bi-annual visit to Bundaberg and surrounds to gather some happy smileys. Those that I do not get this trip will have to wait till my next visit. Had the company of Fulfilled71 from 1400 hours this afternoon. Had a wonderful time driving and talking.

Parked in Sheridan Street and 270meter walk on good track to GZ. Surely tires one out Found this one quickly on my own before lunch, 1110, and then venturing North of the River to pick up Graham.

Repairs are now done... Hopefully this is the last time I need to do this.

Will have to fix container and replace log...

Log saturated but managed 2 sign. Tftc

Today was Day two, or should I say continuation of our Big Day out. Just to get a few more for our holiday. This time it was just Mastamak and TriBre.

After reading the logs we expected our short walk from "Ring Road Monument" to be in vain, but as we got closer to GZ we could see the cache clearly from about 10m away! The container looks in great shape so we where a little surprised to find the logbook so wet, we did manage to sign the back page, but a new logbook maybe needed soon. I was still looking out for the Heap of Junk, has the area been cleaned up since?

This was the 8th find of 9 finds for the day. With 0 DNF's for the Whole Day!! (Whhhooo Hoooo)

East find. Log sheet is wet and we couldn't open so wrote on the back of the log sheet.

Could see container from about 10metres away. Log is wet. Couldn't open so wrote on back of log.

thanks for the cache

There is nothing wrong with the cache. It is up and running.

This cache is now up and running and ready for business... After doing some repairs on the container.

This cache is not available due to the recent storms

TFTCSL- another I forgot to log before the flood

Nice views of a young Brown Goshawk while walking to the cache [^]

Very nice and easy cache to find, requires bit of a little stroll

Really cool

Had to come and check one of my caches just up the track so why not grab another one, Thanks

We were enjoying a late dinner and the alert came through and as soon as miss 6 heard it the question was out 'Can we please go Geocaching Mum?!?' So in a matter of seconds we were all up getting ready and we set off. We discovered the hide easily and logged our FTF, and as we drove off we saw BCF88 and the Skaters heading in..

Nice to meet some fellow cachers out on the hunt!! Xx

Out having dinner with other cachers and decided to do this one as it is close to home. Easy find. TFTC ihewman

Hey what a chance encounter! Saw the hitchies as we drove in congrats in the ftf hitchies! Tha skaters and I found this one quite easily! Tftc

Yay 6th to find!!!! Thats an achievement for me parked car off trail (mind you this is midnight) and compass said 35metres. As soon as I approached GZ I saw from the right angle the top of cache. I soon had in hand and sighed then returned. Let me tell you at this time of night and location while at cache I looked at my car and it looked like the longest 35metres in my life. So many toads and strange noises. As soon as log was in place I ran back to my car. Lol TFTC

Out having a farewell dinner for one of the local cachers when this one was published. Went out with seirra1 and found fairly easily. TFTC ihewman.

Published

Oh well second to find on this one along with BCF88 again. Hitches were just driving out as we were driving in.
