Tahuna Pitstop (Waikato) Tahuna, North Island, New Zealand
By 11hpg11 on 18-Feb-15. Waypoint GC5N1N9

Gone

Found marble and co2 bottle for a air rifle and the dead hedgehog is still there. Think it’s been taken

Sounds like it's gone

Also DNF. Hedgehog still dead.

Did not find but did find a dead hedgehog, hope that’s not the camo

First Cache ️

Tftc

Cleaning up unfound caches in the rural North Waikato. Nice day for a cruise on my Spyder. Tftc

Nice little stopping area as we head back to Hamilton. Too hot today to have the roof open

A quick grab and go .. and not a bad place to stop.
tftc!

Any early morning find while heading north. TFTC

Found it, 1st one found

Super hard

First cache for 2020. Woohoo. Picnic people didn't take any notice of me. Tftc

Little drive down the road to log this cache on Christmas Day.

Quick drive from home to pick this cache up on Christmas Day. Another day of the year ticked off.

Tftc, lovely leg stretch stop while at work. I liked the camo, as did one tenacious snail fighting for possession of the cache

Found during our Christmas and New Year vacation roadtrip around New Zealand.

TFTC #7445 - Greetings from Denmark

Nice Park n grab. Tftc

This stop came just at the time. I needed the break. The cache was welcome as well.

Together with TEMBO! I had a really interesting geocaching-trip today. We could find some geocaches, met some locals and had a great talk to them.
Concerning this geocache I want to say thanks because we had much fun in searching and finding this geocache! The cache made our trip even more interesting!
TFTC!

Found by the Mabwells

On our homeward journey from a great week away in our campervan. We managed to park right by the cache by a stroke of luck as it was the most level spot around! So a quick find for us. TFTC.

I've had this one on my list since July. Couldn't get it then because there was a muggle parked right beside the hint item. Luckily there was nobody around this time and I made the find super quickly. TFTC

A nice peaceful little spot. Lots of muggles but they were all of the bovine variety so caused no problems. We took the trackable to continue its journey. TFTC.

We're spending a couple of hours getting out of the house and local cache hunting. Great little spot this is! TFTC

Left $

A quick park and grab on a quiet turn off found on way to Tauranga to visit family TFTC

Tftf with k-adventure. Cache very wet. And covered in snails lol

What a cool little pit stop that we would have never found without this cache! Thanks for the placement

On a roadie with NZ Flossy. I am logging using the Cachly app template so please excuse generic logging along the way. It’s just my way of keeping track, but I do genuinely thank each and every one of you cache owners for taking the time and energy to place these caches. Many Thanks for bringing me here. Cheers

. On a small road trip with Mcjandals over to the Waikato. Lots of fun and good weather until the end and then it was time for home. Enjoyed some roads off the beaten track as the main ones were very busy. Think the farmers in the area will be glad of some rain. Thanks to all the COs for some great caches TFTC

TFTC

With kiwitien. TFTC

Neat little hide! Found on the (somewhat circuitous) way to Auckland. Logbook mush so replaced with a waterproof sheet. TFTC.

Found it, thanks for the cache.

Still wet but still here. Couldnt log it. But quick find on a snack break. Tftc

Yebo 11hpg11

On our way to rotorua we stopped here and there for either to stretch our legs or to look for a cache.

Found well

Tftc

Found but needs to be replaced as paper was wet and couldn't really write on it

Found,needs to be replaced, water got to the paper so i couldn't log it on paper

Found this Yesterday om my way to Auckland airport together with larsogsabine

Quick grab on the go. Needs a new logbook.

Yay found it

Found it

Was driving through here picking up some caches, nice easy parking here. I found the lid, and then the container, but no log, so left a temporary piece of paper, and re-hid the cache. TFTC

With my afternoon largely free I decided to head out of the city and take a drive in the country. I ended up heading into the Waikato. The weather started off find enough but I seem to have found a patch of gentle rain. I managed to park up right next to GZ and spied the hide straight away. Interesting effort on the camo here. Cheers for the cache placement and rest at this stop!

Quick stop after visiting a friend in Morrinsville. Tftc

Heading back from a day out in Auckland by myself and thought I would see if I could stop and retrieve some caches on the way. I'm sure I was still being followed by a fellow cacher as their they were again doing the drive by lol. Easy find but Log was really wet and smelt funny so quickly signed it and put it back then got out the wet wipes and cleaned up then headed home. It might need maintenance. TFTC

Found a camo'ed container empty and lying in the open at the base of the hint, plus the GPS indicated 0 m to go. So left a replacement log and covered it in accordance with the hint. TFTC

A really horrible weather day today. Going past up to Auckland felt there has to be one here. Park up. 15m. Good hint meant I didn't have to hang out in the rain long. Cache all good. tftc

Being trying to get this one but always someone resting here. Found on way to Auckland cool little container.

Nice area. Muggles parked by cabbage tree so had a ten minute wait till they went. Nice quick follow find.

Paused for 2 muggles to move on. Took TB. TFTC

Nicr lottle hide. On a random pit stop on a day trip. Had no pen or gadgets to add to the mix.

Another nice break with the kids. Good easy find for the little ones.

TB drop whilst passing

Nice little stop on our way from Otway to Te Akau.

**#11274**
**8.20am**
**daily find #1**
The weather looked to be bad in the BOP so a decision was made to head to the brighter skies of the Waikato (for a change...)to knock off "The Eyes Have It" series and a few more to bring our tally up to 99 for the day.

First find of the day, the trip meter was zero'd and time of day noted, we left home at 6am and had find #1 sorted at 8.20am, someone had left their car mats on the picnic table nearby, unfortunately they were not our colour of choice......

Tftc. Quick stop on way home

Quick park and grab on our way to Auckland.

TFTC 11hpg11 #685, 2 January 2018

easy find

Stopped here for morning tea on our way north and thought "There must be a cache here" but with no data connection and not having downloaded this one before we left Aus, we looked for the logical place and there it was
My first cache find without a description !! Recorded a waypoint - but didn't think to write down the road name
Finding which cache it was has been a bit complicated. When we finally got wifi, I searched the coords on google earth to find the intersection road name - then to Geocaching to log find.
TFTC.

Heading south with yorkshirekiwi83 for the day, this was one of the finds on route. She had previously found this one, but we made a quick driveby to make this straightforward find. Thanks for the hide.

Welcome break on drive from Auckland to Taupo. Quick find and awesome cache container. Thanks.

On our way from up north to a day-long non-caching event nearby and, being too early for it (had left plenty of time in case of traffic issues) stopped off here to make a find. Very soggy underfoot and the rain started in earnest as I was making the find. I took the container back to the car, dried out the interior and put a piece of paper in a small bag inside (had run out of replacement logs but not bags), signed of course, and then replaced it in its hiding spot. Thanks for placing 11hpg11!

Nice easy cache - cheers

No log paper in container

We have found this one during our geotrip to China and New Zealand. We have enjoyed our 10 day stay in New Zealand a lot, especially its beautiful nature and atmosphere. Many thanks for the cache and also for showing us this nice place. Greetings from the Czech Republic.

Cool camo but not waterproof! Easy find and managed to sign wet log. TFTC!

We stopped here on our way down to Hobbiton. I had to be quick since I had three muggles in the car tapping their feet. TFTC.

On the way to Auckland to pick up a rather fortuitous Trade Me purchase, and figured I'd turn this into 2 days of caching as well
This was found quickly and in good condition thanks to accurate coords and a straight forward placement. Cheers 11hpg11 - TFTC.

Nice camo, easy find, tftc

A nice quick find here on our way to Rotorua for the day just to have a ride on the luge. We stopped in to pick this one up on our way down. TFTC!

Hubby and I set off for a 3 day trip in our motorhome. We headed for a place called Wharekawa on the Firth of Thames to stay a couple of nights. We were a bit concern as there had been lots of flooding and slips but we were lucky. I had sorted 19 geocaches to find on our journey. 10 on the way up, 3 while we were there and 6 on the way home. I have another 19 smiley faces. Good another easy parking space. This was an easy find and we were soon on our way. TFTC.

Found this one on our way to Tairua.

A late night weekend caching trip. There was no muggles around as it was really late/early morning.
Found it easily. TFTC

#288. The race was on between my wife, my son and me as we pulled up at the Tahuna stop. With my wife out of the car quickest, she managed to spot the well-camoed hide. We managed a quick retrieval and replaced an item in the cache with one of our one. Great hide, TFTC.

Area all clean today so a pleasant stop. Thanks

Out on a trip with the CO 11hpg11 to grab all the caches in Hamilton we could that we've been procrastinating.

We weren't going to come up here but decided we could do a check on the cache at the same time. Look, I'm logging some of my backlog

Log to follow. TFTC

We pulled into the rest stop to collect this cache and lo and behold a muggle had his car right next to GZ. Hmmm...confirmed our suspicions by walking over and we could see the cache right where it was supposed to be. Geowife pulled the shoe tying trick and retrieved the cache and then the muggle drove off anyway so all good. Thanks for placing this here.

one cabbage tftc

Nice and easy tftc

in need of a stop to stretch my legs, always great when there is a cache to find as well, tftc
