Fun cache! Tftc

Kaimkillenbun, as the locals call it The Bun Day 2Today we mainly cached around BELL. A very tidy small town.There is lots of long grass at the many caches we visited.Some of the best hudes we have see for a long time,We went to mnany interesting location & found some very good caches. Giving a EP for this cache.Thanks Speedmistress for hiding this cache.

Interesting idea for the log. Took some work just to get to the tools but it was fun nonetheless.

Bit of a trek through long grass but good find overall

Found whole thing on ground and in plan sight. Have lent it where it shouldnt be seen. Shame as a lot of work has gone in to the construction TFTC

A lot of thought goes into these caches. Great creation tyftf

Tools, tools, the magical loot,

This kind CO left some to use,
And while you're here, enjoy the views!

Star picket needs to be banged back into the ground - had a hammer but didn't want to damage it great idea and gave us something to talk about found with silverfox1970 and firebatman88 during our weekend away. TFTC.

Found with Cosmonaut97 and Firebatman88 on our weekend away. Great idea.

While on my way from Goondiwindi to Kingaroy noticed there were some caches in Bell so checked into van park then off to find this and other caches. I have a cache the same as this one at home so will give it a fav point. Enjoyed the hunt around town. Thanks for this cache.

A quick and easy find. Another good container. TFTC. A favourite point given.

Quick and easy find and retrieve and place back.

Out and about for a couple of hours to find a few caches around Bell.
A quick find here today.
The cache is dry and in good condition.
Thanks for the cache.

Driving around Bell with a four hour time limit before we have to head back to Dalby. Another great cache. It took me way too long, 15 minutes, as I kept on dropping the cache. Favourite point.
TFTC Speedmistress.

Just as well tools were provided lol and it gets a favourite point from us tftc

Another clever container. Thanks again

Found it. DIFFERENT. TFTC

I stayed in the Pub overnight so the early morning walk around town and over the hill and far away gave me a chance to collect a few caches prior to grabbing a coffee and cake at another nearby coffee shop.

This one had me perplexed for a short time. However if you look in the right place you will find the right position to ensure you get started in the correct manner

Too hard

Hellooo ! we're still here ! 8 this morning, 12 this afternoon. To quote a recently well known figure "how good is that ?" Up Jacob St we go in the GeoPathfinder to get close to this one. Definitely a favourite for this well constructed contrivance, which is elevated to cunning status as well ! Thanks for another tour about this afternoon Speedmistress.

Will have to come back for another try at this one.

Found 17/722

Why are we staying in Bell[?] Oh because there are lots and lots of geocaches including puzzles that we solved ourselves! Yes Ourselves! Sadly this morning it was freezing so a late start then home for soup for lunch before heading back out hunting. Did I mention it didnt get over 10degrees until after 3pm!

On my way from Canberra to North Queensland with a few detours for shires. TFTC.
A very cleverly designed cache. Post is laying on ground so tools are needed now.

Our last leg of our Townsville trip is from Dalby to Brisbane via Bell. After a couple of cool and showery days, today was just right for caching and a cafe visit around the village. Many thanks to the CO's for hiding the caches.
Another FP given.

Travelled to Bell on our travels to find a few caches that we haven't found to date. Its always good to come out to Bell to geocache, as after geocaching, its great to go back to the cafe in the town. Thank you to the CO for placing these caches. Found and signed log. TFTC

Frustratingly good fun.

Another enjoyable day caching around Bell where everything looks so green at the moment. Unfortunately tools not needed any more but still a good cache. TFTC Speedmistress

My trusty walking stick came in handy again for the long grass. I enjoy the effort you put in your cache containers.

TFTC Speedmistress

Heading home from the Wangaratta Mega and stopped in Bell for a couple of days. Solved nearly all of the unknowns and have passed through many times but unable to stop to collect. Hopefully we can grab a few over the two days.

Thanks Speedmistress for the caches.

We are spending a few days in the area and having fun caching. This is one we found today as we drove along the track. All good with the cache log signed and replaced as found. A fav from us for the great cache construction. Thanks Speedmistress for these caches.

Spending some time in Bunya Mountains and decided to visit Bell to collect some caches! TFTC!

Found this on the power trail while finding some caches. Beware of the super long grass on the trail - often it was above our heads with little visibility of the random cactus off the side of the road and would have no way of seeing any nasty critters on the ground. Great cache container! Found with graceygirl1234 after doing a 12km hike around Bunya Mountains. TFTC

Tried all the tools but Newton did the trick. TFTC

After spending a wonderful day in the nearby Bunya Mountains with some of the oldest caches in Queensland . Day 4 we are cleaning up caches in Bell and suroundings.

A fav point for the awesome container!

Tftc Speedmistress

Our 4th day in Bell - after weren't one day in the Bunya Mountains.

Trying to clean up the remaining caches.

Tftc Speedmistress

Hi there Speedmistress, we found your cache Tools Supplied today.

We are slowly meandering towards Hervey Bay, and have stopped off in Bell for a few days. Well it’s day three and there’s still caches to find, we just might clean them up the remaining traditionals today.

Coordinate Accuracy: We found this cache near where the GPS said we should be looking.
Cache Condition: We found the whole device lying on the ground we suspect that needs a little bit of maintenance.

Found by Team DES (Domsky, E_Smiley, Snickersallan) on our way home (via Bell) from attending the very enjoyable QOGM (Queensland Outback Geo-Muster) 2021 Paroo. Can't wait for QOGM2022 Murweh!

Thanks for the cache and taking us here Speedmistress. That was fun! Great cache!

Finally arrived in Bell, had a lovely morning tea and all geared up for an overnight stay.
Love this countryside and it is very rewarding visiting towns/places for the first time.
All finds in and around Bell were fantastic, found relatively quickly and to save room on the logs we signed as Something Catchy/Team DES (domsky, E_Smiley & Snickersallan)
Apologies CO for the generic logs, your caches are a real credit to you.
A well deserved favourite point from me.

TFTC Speedmistress

We are so happy we decided to come to Bell for a day of caching.
This trail was lots of fun, and very entertaining.

Another beautifully constructed hide.

Nice to see a different cache. A favourite for us.

So tricky but got it.

Damn cacti got me good

Found Ok

A great power trail even for locals who have never been down this road. A most enjoyable afternoon walk and explore after work and school with Geokid66 and Cachekidkangaroo.

This is too hard. But finally got it TFTC.

This was one obout of 4 I attempted today that had an extra bit to solve all were easy enough to add a bit of interest to the cache. TFTC.

After a yummy toasty at the cafe we headed off to find a few last local caches before heading back to Toowoomba. Great find made here. TFTC Speedmistress

What a fab weekend out in Bell finding lots of the caches that have been placed here in recent times! This was one we found on our little adventure. Thanks for the fun, Speedmistress!

Thanks to the CO for squiring us around town.Great hides to be had...lots of variety too. Ta again

A big day planned for today, heading north east to Bell to round up some smilies.
We are targeting about 60 or so over the next two days but we're flexible ... up & down!
A 3 hour drive then into it!
We managed 46 today before running out of daylight.

After tiptoing through the cacti in my safety thongs I found ...
Sorry no spoilers here.
Loved it!
The lid was a little tight though.
Made our mark & replaced as found.
A favourite Point for one of my favourite things to do!

Really cool find. I had a lot of fun walking the track with the beautiful view.

[FTF] - Well what a little ripper! I love this cache. You won't find the supplied tools at any Bunnings, and we scratched out heads for a while but finally had container in hand and wrote in the log. Thanks speedmistress - this one gets a favourite point. I love it.
