+Hurricane Luke Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Hi all, We are planning a to place a large geocache on an island that would only be accessible by a short kayak. We usually don't have trouble naming caches, because they tend to be pretty 'matter of fact' names - but we want something a bit more clever this time round. Our only other island cache got named 'Island, Lake, Island, Ocean', but we are truly out of ideas for this one and we want to see what others can think up. The island itself is actually part of a fragmented reef at a place called 'Castlepoint' on the eastern coastline of New Zealand. You can see it in the image below - it's the closest piece of rock on the inward shaped 'arch' in roughly the top-left of the picture. It looks like it's connected to the rest of the arch but there's actually a ~15 metre gap where swells come in that's extremely dangerous, so the only method of access is by kayaking across the bay. Any ideas? Thanks. Quote Link to comment
AZcachemeister Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Oh, I don't know...'Another AWESOME cache by Hurricane Luke'? Seriously, that just looks AWESOME! Quote Link to comment
+The_Incredibles_ Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Something with the word Castle in it. If it were my castle, I mean cache I'd make up some fantasy about an important person being held hostage on an island called Castle Rock. How you had to battle monsterous waves during a night rescue mission. And how you had to solve a challenging puzzle to find the "key" to unlock the door. Of course, there would be a link on the cache page with some mission impossible music. But that's just me. "Castle Rock Rescue?" Quote Link to comment
+niraD Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 How about "oak hart sky" (or any other anagram of "short kayak")? Quote Link to comment

+SwineFlew Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Does the winner of naming the cache get to armchair log it as a prize? Quote Link to comment
+Glenn Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Go the traditional (classic) route and name it GEOCACHE. Quote Link to comment
+captnemo Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 How about "Luke's Castle"? Quote Link to comment
knowschad Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Not sure why you'd feel the need for a clever name for a cache that so obviously speaks for itself. I'd just call it "Castlepoint Reef" and be done with it. Awesome cache site! Quote Link to comment

+stijnhommes Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 If it were me, I'd call it "Castlepoint Arch", but then again, I'm not good at naming things. Keep brainstorming and the perfect name will come to you. Don't forget to post some pics on the info page. That's what would draw me in; it's a shame I'm on the other side of the world.
