My GPSr took me to the exact right spot. All I had to do was tilt my head to spot the cache. TFTC.
Found - Mrs McMike2012 & I live full-time in our caravan travelling around NZ, visiting the places we want to visit & doing the things we want to do and fitting in a bit of Geocaching here & there we woke up this morning to yet another day of rain on the roof, we had checked the weather forecast yesterday & knew that today was going to be another stink day of low cloud, light winds & persistent rain again decided that we werent going to be doing much in the way of caching today but still knew that we needed to get out & find at least one cache today so we ventured out for a bit of a drive we ended up doing a couple of Traditional Caches, not quite parkngrabs, but close to it this spot looks like there has been some TLC going on as there was no sign of gorse ended up being an easy find, albeit with a number of young steers looking through the fence & giving us the evil eye, logbook completed & successfully replaced were pleased to add another 'smiley face' to the tally TFTC ... TN:LN:LS this was #6,132 for us!
A bit wet underfoot after the recent weather. Cache a bit damp but otherwise all good.
Were on a family outing today. 3 generations out on a caching trip. Three of us from Queenstown, a couple from Tokoroa and one from Norfolk Island. TFTC
What a nicely maintained cemetery and even better a cache! Cache is all good. TFTC
a quick find as I was on my way to find Mr P and this cache was just crying out to be found. T4tc
Now I'm done with Dunedin, I can head to Cromwell for the night, but the Mossburn OneNZ cellsite needs a drive test first. Stopped here to set up the equipment (and grab this cache) All fine onsite.

So much history to this place. The hint is maybe a bit irrelevant now as it looks like the area has been cleared, but we easily spotted the cache. Thanks for placing this one.
Ruru-NZ and I are on Stewart Island doing the Geotour caches as a priority but any others found are a bonus for me.
Log book fulll and container found jammed in tight but freed and replaced so it’s upright. No need to worry about nasty bushes anymore as it seems they have gone.

Kiwicampnut and I finally managed to coordinate ourselves having been over to the island we have finished my PWGT5 caches and making good progress on hers while finding others along the way.
Revisited with Kiwicampnut. A bit tricky to retrieve this time.
Thanks for the cache Fl!p94

Cemetery’s are peaceful spots to hide caches. I think we got the penultimate sign in the log. TFTC
Easy find on a foggy morning before our day starts riding to Athol. Should be sunny and warm later after a cold drizzly ride from Centre Hill yesterday.
Love to my valentine.

Came to Lumsden from Athol where we were staying to find the caches and get an ice cream. Didn't take long to locate this one. TFTC
Great cache. Very interesting wandering and reading the headstones. Cache in good condition.
Cache 236 Quick park and grab in local cemetery, cache is in good condition, cache 9 on my 3 day holiday Rock bug added to cache T4TC
This was our first find of the day on our way to a Community celebration event in Invercargill. Found relatively easily, but a strong gust of wind blew the lid of the container through the fence and out of our reach. A quick trip back to the car for a walking pole and we managed the retrieval. Cache duly signed and replaced. Found with Debsnz.
A nicely kept cemetery and the prickly bush in the hint hasben removed so this was a very quick and painless find
Driven past several times but not bothered to stop. Time to kill today so what better place to do it.
Dakotacats found this one while I had a look around the cemetery so not to spook the nearby workers!!
I have a 3 month sabbatical mostly traveling around the planet. My goal is to find and log 1000 caches. New Zealand is my 4th station traveling from south Christchurch to north Auckland, my first visit here, its far away. This is my sabbatical-cache #541.
Away for 3 full days and 4 night weekend again, with Rebel98 and Aiden29. We have in mind Queenstown, down to Te Anau, Manapouri, as far as we can up towards Milford and later Cromwell. We had some great adventures and some hot and weary walks and a lot of fun.
I got out of the car with Aiden, I thought I knew where the cache was hidden, but with her keen eyes she spotted it well before I did! nevertheless we signed in. I noted deer fences here, but no deer! Oh dear.

Gorby contacted me on Monday asking if I wanted to join him and Rebel98 on a trip to Queenstown for a long weekend. As I already had a week off in between jobs I was free to join them. We travelled from Queenstown to Te Anau, up the Milford Rd as far as we could, over to Cromwell before returning to Queenstown. Many adventures were had and many wonderful gems discovered. We signed with a variation of our own names or R. A. G.
We were heading south towards Te Anau and stopping for caches along the way. No muggles around this late in the afternoon. I spied the cache as we approached as there is no longer any gorse around.

While driving towards gore we had a quick park and grab to complete all caches in Lumsden although not all of them happy. Thanks for the cache!
One of 11 caches located today as we headed from Roxburgh to Queenstown. Stopped at the side of the road to take a photo of the “Welcome to Lumsden” sign and realised there was a cache nearby. A quick find, and no problems with gorse! #2430. TFTC.
On a road trip south, enjoying the day and pic up some caches. TFTC

Hello from Perth WA
We found this while on our South Island adventure.
Thankfully the gorse and other weeds have been sprayed recently so it was a very easy find as it was in plain sight.
