As this cache has been out of action for too long and the cache owner has not responded or performed any maintenance, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to un-archive it.

This cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give you, the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance

Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 30 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Look around but Could not find.

Looked all around and could not find. We were approached by the owner of the bordering property who asked what we were doing. We explained, but suspect she may have disposed of cache as she has had some trouble with people throwing rubbish onto her property etc. We offered to take away some trash for the owner (old cans etc lying around) with our always handy rubbish bags for this sort of thing. Think she was happy when we left!

No luck today. Nothing to be found around GZ, saw a spot that looked like it could have been the right place, nothing to either side for a good 8-10 meters.

No luck here. I thought that this cache may be gone, as mum has found it previously, but still we couldn't find!
But maybe it's just become very well hidden under the cover.

Quick find TFTC.

Thanks good fun

Quick find thanks

Thanks for the cache.Daddy'o
Jim & Mrs O.F.

Took a bit of finding as it was well covered

Searched all the likely and the unlikely places however this one escaped me.

Found about 10m from GZ. Maybe it has been placed a wee bit further away from water. TFTC

A bit more cover ment a bit more poking

Found cache a little exposed. Replaced with a bit more cover. TFTC

tftc found with my bro

8 yr old bet me to it

Cheers FTC

tftc

good quick find. TFTC

See my log.

Found, but it was in the open, and on private property, i.e. behind the fence, and completely uncovered.
It was about 6-8 m from GZ. Have replaced outside the fence, but not visible from the roadside.
It is not near the ditch, so I presume that there has been major cache creep here. Perhaps the owner could replace in the correct spot or update the coorfinates.

Cheers.

Quick find on this lovely sunny day. TFTC

GPS had me on the wrong side of the road to begin with. A cache like they should be for family caching. TFTC

TFTC Dull grey today

Starting looking to hard for this one. Nice easy find when I came to my senses. TFTC.

Nothing under the road, [but then a quick find. TFTC.]

Searched down and around, but finally found where we had already walked past. TFTC.

Didn't take us long to find this cache snuggled in next to it's protector for some warmth on this cold day. Thanks Daddy'o for placing the cache and bringing us out into the countryside today.

4758. Stayed in Dunedin after the Mega Event for a couple of days geocaching. This was cache find number two of the first day. A quick and easy find. Thanks, Rodney and Iris.

This certainly was a quick find. Leaving Mosgiel and the Mega for the last time. It was nice to find such a big cache.

The sheep were interested in what we were up to, but nobody else was.

This was the first time we got muggled by a horse.... Would be interesting to figure out what they thought... TFTC

A quick roadside find. Found while heading home after NZMega. TFTC

We had driven past this one quite a few times in the last couple of days but hadn't stopped. The last for today.

NZ12. Out caching with Dazzatron today. Although we did not go to the farm we were able to approach this one without injury. Not such a bad place actually. Thanks.

We were busted by the police nabbing this one. While Sol did the signing Mrs Winglen and Rex eased the constables concerns. Nabbed as part of a weeks caching the South Island with SolDelune, RexTrex Mrs Winglen and Fitzy_1965 in town for the Mega.

Thanks for another Daddy'o.

Out caching with rosmar, 10cc and Indiana Jill from the NZ Mega. Very quick find here as we ran into Zorgon and he had the cache in his hands! TFTC!!!

Out and about on a MEGA cache raid with the FMZ team. Found on our way to the MEGA TFTC.

A quick find on an afternoon caching and filling in time before we are due back at the mega site - so enjoying some near by caches - thank you for the cache

As usual with me when out caching "Just One More" and we grabbed this before heading in to collect another of the MEGA Caches enroute to the MEGA Site TFTC

A shared find with my Aussie caching mates Winglen, Zsazsa7, Sol de Lune and Fitzy-1965 as a part of the NZMEGA2012 experience and our subsequent tour.

Out in a drizzle carefully following the hint instructions (and not doing any nose-dives into the ditch) when we were muggled by a policeman who stopped to check us out. Had a quick chat with him - he was looking for a wandering cattle beast on a side road. Then got distracted by the find and an amazing petrol voucher that dropped into our appreciative hands.

Thanks Daddy'o and thanks MEGA team for the Mega voucher.

Found during the 2012 Mega Event. TFTC

A neat little find after attending the CITO Event and Mega Event site to check in.

Found with fitzy_1965, Winglen, ZsaZsa7 and our NZ caching mate Rextrex on our 8 day trip to NZ for the Mega Event. We visited many areas, found some great caches and had a great time.

Many thanks to all cachers for yet another find in NZ.

Gathering dusk and a group of five were huddled around something on the side of the road, when along came a police car. Nothing for it but to explain about geocaching and the event! He was quite charming, listened then headed off, not to catch bad guys but in search of a stray cow! And a petrol voucher in the cache, thanks organisers of the Mega. And thanks Daddy'o.

5486 + 591 = 6077. Day 2 of my week long visit to the New Zealand South Island for the NZ Mega 2012 event along with Sol de Lune, Zsazsa7, Winglen and RexTrex.

After we left the Mega site we headed towards Mosgiel for more caches. This cache was a nice quick find although the fun really started when the Police pulled over to see what we were doing! A quick explanation and he was on his way to bigger and better things - looking for stray Cow !! Thanks Daddy'o !

TNLN – TFTC !!

Cheers…

We made a quick find after expanding our search area by 6-7 metres.
Thanks for the cache

Called in after the Mega prizegiving and before the log book was signed two more carloads turned up.
Many thanks

It took a little longer than normal because we over thought it. Lovely spot though. Found with the Earthbounds.

2nd of the day finishing off caches in Mosgiel. NIÑO TFTC

Found on Caching Sunday. Straight forward.

TB drop

an easy find. thanks

Another mega weekend quick find. TFTC.

Was in Dunedin to attended the first ever Mega in New Zealand. Managed to work it out so that I was able to team up with fozzmiester and agcnz on an 8 day caching trip around the South Island, this was day 2 of the road trip.

After finding GC3BV2F - Cabbage Patch (Otago), this was the next cache that we had on our list to find today, it was really starting to get late in the evening now and we were still making our way back to Dunedin, but we were also picking up a few caches along the way.

This was the next cache that we had on our list to find today, as it was a driveby cache we knew that it wasnt going to be too hard to find, as we neared GZ we managed to find a parking spot not far from GZ so it was a very short walk to the cache.

Arriving at GZ it only took a few seconds and we soon had the cache in hand signed and then returned the cache back to where it belonged, thanks for placing this cache here and for bringing us to this spot, TFTC TNLNSL (5017), now I know why this cache was named so.

Finally getting around to logging... A quick stop between the Mega and Mosgiel. TFTC.

Found it while caching in and around Mosgiel before heading to the Mega Event. TFTC

A quick find while out for a spot of night caching before heading back to Dunedin after visiting the MEGA . TFTC

Found as part of an 8 day NZ Mega Event trip. Day 2 - Dunedin and surrounds. Thanks to the owners of the 500 + caches which I had the pleasure to find along the way and which contributed to a very fun trip.

Found by The Empire with tackle_head, bogonghazy, sully1 and Snaphappy1.
Day four of the NZ Mega invasion.
After attending the Mega and getting our bucket of goodies, we formed a posse and headed out to grab some caches. Our convoy had a great time, touring around, lots of laughs. My thanks for the cache.

TFTC. This was a peaceful spot and where I initally was looking in the wrong location. Thought better of it and avoiding the water looked elsewhere. That was better. Log signed and cache just returned when the Aussie advance party pull up with a friendly wave.

The NZ Mega starts (officially) today, so I headed out to the ol’ Scout Camp to spend some time socialising & caching...

Tagged along with Sully1, Bogonhazy, tackle_head & The Empire for the day... Had a fantastic day caching, laughing, sightseeing & laughing (Does it get any better than this???)

Grabbed this cache whilst travelling & taking in the fantastic views around the area... What an absolutely beautiful country to explore and photograph...

Thanks For The Cache & for bringing us here
