Not sure if this cache has taken a bit of muggle abuse or if the hint is wrong. I didnt find it at GL and its just a baggie and a container cap.

Back when I was a wee young lad, I was a Scout, so I knew of the book, and who Ka was. Plus seen sevreral movie adaptions. Anyway no problems with the find today.
TFTC Nosynel, the cache was found in good order Very Happy Signed, sealed and returned to GZ. 2 find(s) of 6 today, making this find #2752

Another little park like area I didn’t know existed. Muggle and dog appeared just as we were wanting to return the ache to its hiding spot! Tftc
 
05-Jun-21
Located with Ricardinho

I waved down my Antarctic running friend Julia on her bike at this spot As we drove to the park & passed 2 cyclists I recognized her profile! A real surprise & a quick chat before she biked the last 2 kms of her 100 km ride. Way to make me feel guilty about my lack of exercise today lol

In plain view and not spotted on the first lap around. Got it second time around, but not before spending too much time at the wrong tree. For me it was the second closest tree to the coords that worked. TFTC Nosynel. Good to tick this one off.

RG72 and I are in Chch for the long weekend to catch up with family and celebrate a few birthdays. And with the weather forecast not looking great for much of it, we went out late this morning for a walk in the hills.
Nothing too taxing, just 4km covered with a bit of elevation thrown in of course, but 5 caches targeted and all found in pretty good nick. Nice views too. Thanks all.
 
17-May-21
I put in a new logbook.
 
01-May-21
Blends in well although being in plain view; TFTC

Due to the government ordered Covid-19 lockdown, I will be doing my bit to #slowthespread. From 11.59pm on Wednesday 25 March 2020.

The virus can survive on plastic and paper for longer than three days

If you would like a geocaching related activity to do while you are observing the lockdown, I welcome messages about how to solve my puzzle caches - I am happy to give hints and tutorials so you have lots of new caches to find when this is over.

13-Jan-20
Found it after looking for a while. Cool place to hide it definitely need small hands or a stick.
 
12-Jan-20
We checked out a number of possible locations for this cache, but after reading some logs, which indicated that both the coordinates and the hint were probably inaccurate, we decided not to persevere.
 
26-Dec-19
Challenging. Wrong gps. Misleading comments. Really had to use our eyes. But very satisfying after 15 minutes
 
24-Dec-19
I made a short walk from our holiday home at Sloan terrace to this place. The cache could not hide for long.

Thank you from H1 Palm
 
19-Dec-19
Took a while gps pointed to wrong tree
 
15-Nov-19
Found on an evening walk with the doggie. Was very easy, in plain sight as whatever camouflage may have been hiding the cache was no longer in place. Will recover.
 
13-Nov-19
Ooooo that took time, nice camo Smile I love little hides like this.
 
12-Nov-19

21-Jul-19
Took a few moments to find. Ended up talking to a man walking his dog and he is from Nelson. He was really interested in geocaching once I explained it. Said that if I was ever in the Nelson area that I should pop into the Wakefield Bakery and say hello.
 
15-Jul-19
Finally worked out how to find caches with a clue for the Mystery yeh. A treat to go out and find a couple after jobs done. Had our worst record so far 1 from 3.
