As this cache has been out of action for too long, 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 unarchive it.

Couldn't find this one either...sadly the kids found a dead cat instead

Was in the area today and would have visited this but saw the previous logs. Sorry Renagade01 looks like it's time to find out what's up with your cache

Not for me either.

same as last 2 logs.... spent quite a bit of time in between locals passing. No joy.

We reckon this one has bitten the dust... Searched many of the plants and then some. A previous finder has posted a photo of some healthy foliage. I don't think the area is as lush as it was then... Disappointed really, because we really need these hides. Please check...

Did a quick circuit with some poking around but no luck, a couple of cars came and went from driveways while we were lurking, so didn't want to push our luck by loitering too long. We will be back

A nice find after dinner, lovely area, nice hide.

Out for a walk and found this cache just where described.We don't think we were seen. Thanks for placing this cache.

Out on a Sunday afternoon bike ride mopping up some local hides. TFTC. #317

Out for a numbers mission in and around The Mount and Papamoa with 11HPG11 and iammrwalker today. With a very early start of 5am agreed on, it was going to be a long day compounded by the All Blacks playing before we left which meant a 3am alarm being set the night before. We all had a great time and a lot of laughs were had in between some frustrating hides, a really enjoyable multi and a couple of great field puzzles. All in all a very successful day with only a handful of DNF's, the weather keeping at bay for most of the day and 86 new smiles added to the map in a little under 13 hours of caching. We signed the cache log "Hi 1" an acronym of our caching names. A big thanks to all the cache owners for placing some great caches.

Nice quick find here.

Out on a numbers mission with HKCB and Iammrwalker to clear out some of the caches in Tauranga/Papamoa area. We left Hamilton at 5am and had a full day of caches, a few DNFs, a refreshing swim in a pond and a whole lot of laughs. We signed logs as 'HI1' as an acronym for our caching names to save log space. Thanks to all the cache owners for the great variety of caches, puzzles and locations

Found the heart of the bush and then found the cache.

This was one of more than fifty Geocaches I found today in the company of HKB and 11hpg11. We signed the logs HI1, an anachronism of our handles to save on log space. We travelled over to the Mount and Papamoa from Hamilton, leaving at the end of the All Black/ South Africa test at about 5am and didn’t roll back into Hamilton until after 8pm. It was a long day, and the weather wasn’t the best but that didn’t stop us from having a great time exploring the area and enjoying the wide variety of high quality hides.

This was a nice quick for us today thanks to the descriptive hint. TFTC.

A few muggles around but all good. TFTC

Found cache all good tftc 2 men on the other side of the road but busy talking not taking any notice of us

My last morning in the Mt Maunganui/Papamoa area to pick up a few more caches before heading back home in the afternoon.

I had to emply a bit of stealth here as I had noticed a few muggles in their windows.

Cheers for the cache.

Thank you for the cache, always great to have new cache-owners
Unfortunately it was lying out in the sun muddled up with a whole box load of bourbon cans (empty). So did our CITO thing and took away the 12 cans in their box to find a bin. And hid the cache again. The log was damp so we put it in a plastic bag.
We took the TB to continue its journeys. And left behind a Queensland Mega Path-Tag.
Lots of muggles at houses nearby, not sure how much interest they took of our activities

Easy as tacos

Out and about enjoying the sunshine while finding a few specific caches towards a challenge we are working on. Found the cache lying exposed on the grass, re hid in the heart TFTC.

Today we are heading over to visit various friends that we haven't managed to catchup with for a while (and a little bit of caching in between). Having visited some friends we now have a little time before the next set so time to wipe out a few caches through this part of town.
This was the last of the day and with now that the rain had cleared so more serious caching was happening.

Thanks for the placement

Just out of view of people working on their drive . Quick find.

Thank for the cache

Another nice find today, while on a geocaching trip around the area.

A quick find for us today, thanks

Quick easy find.

A nice park and grab, found quickly and in good condition. Tried to re-hide well as cache was a little exposed. Cheers.

Was looking in the wrong garden for a bit until we read the hint again. A nice quick & easy find. SL-TFTC
Dropped off a few trades.
Thanks Renegade01 & Josh

#362 - I was ducking out to get a few supplies while i've been sick at home, couldn't resist to get this quick park n grab. Felt a bit out in the open, but was a quick find. TFTC

To begin with, I was looking in the wrong garden. Felt like a tool. After getting to the correct spot, found easily due to perfect hint.
TFTC.

{FTF}(FTF) 12.12am will update when home---- I saw this pop up and was in the middle of watching a show with Kiwijade, Was busting to get out the door and get the FTF but got the guilt trip that I had already found a cache today and also running out of local caches to keep the streak going. After a chat with TNX all but thought the FTF was gone as was certain he was shooting down to get it. All tho it was getting close to midnight and still no logs had been put up and I was wide awake. This gave me a chance to continue my streak being after 12 and also a chance at another FTF. Got to GZ and with a little bit of looking found the cache pretty quickly and filtering threw the bits of paper and no logs yet WOOP WOOP another FTf to add to the list. Thanks for the cache look forward to seeing some more pop up

Ducked down between the showers.Quick easy find,thanks guys.

An hour to fill before the dentist and a dot day so popped down to Papamoa for 3 new caches at a quiet muggle time. The weather was not the best but the rain stopped and allowed me to get this cache without getting wet. Parked nearby to get another cache and got this one on the way back to the car - I must have just missed Kennyclan. I fear for the plants with this cache as they have a tendancy to wander hopefully cachers will take care TFTC
