Could CO please check on this cache? Cache has not been sighted since Feb. Cheers.
No luck for me here I'm afraid. Several freshly sawn stumps at GZ, as with the previous DNFers I suspect this one's gone.

No sign of cache but is sign of recent tree trimming etc. found where I expect it probably was??
Stumped again. I am wondering if there have been a few did not finds who didn't log it because no one has logged a find on it for a while but they have on other caches in the area.
Just managed to complete the formalities before a load of kids came into the area, was well away from the cahe by the time they did though.

Spent a couple of hours walking and driving around Nawton today, in the freezing Spring weather. GPS was a bit confused in here, but once I got the right direction was an easy find, covered it a bit better, as was rather obvious.
Replaced today with water tight container. Camo-knitted pouch cache was originally in has vanished and replacement cache was supposed to go inside it, so cache is rather non-camo-ed. Please recover well.
YAY! Our first actual find! Bit muddy to get there. Sure am discovering some interesting parks around here! container is not watertight, so some yucky mud and bugs had got in. Notebook inside baggy was even waterlogged. :/ We did sign it though. May be an idea to get another container, or at least another notebook.
Sorting this one out and replacing logbook is on my list of things to do during the first week of the school holidays.
Mum wanted to visit her cousin on Ellicott Road... The dog and I are on our own for a couple of hours.
Yet another damp little corner of another non-descript park. It's like this section of land was unsellable, so they tacked it onto the park. The cache is in a pocket of dampness, so the contents are also soggy. TFTC.

The second find in the series and another lovely spot in suburbia. Thanks.

11147... Unfortuntely these cache containers are not waterproof, tipped out some water, logbook safe and dry in its baggie, TFTC.
What a lovely glade!- in a slightly dodgy area. Steed found it, he's the closest in height to his seven friends ( don't tell him I told you that)
Don't live too far away from here but never knew this part of the park was here. Easy find and covered a little better. Thanks very much kiwiteachernz
# 390 Found this one after having to give up on Number one. Weather was looking threatening so had to make it as quick as possible.

Found after some misbehavior from our GPS. Not a place I would want to visit at night.
THis cash has been muggled. I found the empty container on the ground with nothing in it. The log was in a clear plastic bag lying on the ground by a tree . The card was about 10 metres away lying in the grass and the cama pouch was where I take it the cash is supposed to be hidden.
Tidyed up and signed log book.

Someone emerged from the bushes as we were approaching, found the cache easily with kadin92 and his little sister while visiting from Australia
Was just finishing signing log when I heard footsteps so had to quickly hide the cache. Then I forgot to grab the puzzle code so will have to revisit.
Large dog with it's owner at the park wasn't that keen on our visit, but the owner had it under control. Quick find.TFTC
What a great area for the local kids to play I know it would have got well used when I was a kid, I can imagine the games we could have made up. TFTC
Another one down in the series and another one we were glad that our gumboots kept our feet nice and dry. TFTC
ready running now as we have to be at the SKill Day and its wet and I'm soaked. t4tc

Felt a little conspicuous with the neighbour looking over the fence whilst signing the log. Another great little container. TFTC

One of the rare times you'd find me walking around a neighborhood like this by myself, took awhile to find this cache as hint was somewhat deciveing.

Slosh, slosh, splash slip...the wettest of the parks and the longest walk from the car. 2nd to last in the series for me (fancy doing it backwards)...love the camo pouch though it is getting quite soggy. TFTC
Very strangely shaped park. Don't think this part would get much foot traffic.
Many thanks
Many thanks
Cool sweater for a cache, and the shorter people would have had no problems with this one
Was on the way to the snow on Friday afternoon, and collecting caches while there was still sun! This was the 12th one of the 17 I managed to do this day.
Fully attempted these in the wrong order though!! Haha, ah well, at least I will have some of the numbers for the next visit - that's if I don't lose them in between.
Was actually a bit hessitant about pulling over to stop for this one, as my car window broke, and wouldn't close properly!! But I stopped anyways... I would be fast! And fast I was... though I did come back dirty as, having slipped in the mud a few times ae! Haha.

Slash, splash, splash. Ground still waterlogged but made it through (or should that be wade it through?). TFTC
Waded to this one after all the recent rain. Another downpour whilst I was there, v. glad for a nice quick find. Dropped off TB. TFTC
Definately a somewhat strangely shaped park. I don't imagine this area gets a lot of use. Easy find thanks
A great time to do the parks in Hamilton on a cold Sunday winters morning
It is an unusal shape this park TFTC

Really hard to be quiet when you have to walk on all the dead leaves lol [8)]
Good chance for a bit of CITO as well.
