I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

Hi Zappyrenee

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Regards

No sign of anything satisfying the clues.

A beautiful day for a walk around Napier art deco weekend is in full swing and I am lucky enough to be down here for work and have a day off thanks for the beautiful caches in this amazing city


Found the cache however there is no log inside

Trouvée facilement ! On continue notre promenade en bord de mer ! Magnifique temps pour faire du Géocaching !

Great views this morning on the walkway. TFTC

On a weekend road trip from Wellington to Napier to see sir Elton, and finding a few caches on the way. This was one of them. All good here, TFTC

We had a great day visiting downtown Napier today. We really loved the art deco buildings and how well kept they are. It's a great place to visit and added to this is the cruise passengers that enliven the place too and no doubt spend lots of money to keep the shops busy.

We stopped by for the views and cache and the subtle aroma of sewerage!

great cache

Tftc

On our way to the nearby TMGT cache we stopped here to admire the view! Spotted from the right perspective. TFTC

Here we were, quietly making our way to the TMGT cache along from here, when we realised there was a pesky nano that we just had to grab. The situation is lovely, but I’ve never got to love this business of rolling up the log paper tight enough to fit back in!

We have come to Napier with the family for a short break before we all go back to school. Its the first time our children have been here and they are enjoying a bunch of new experiences. After a busy day at some museums and the market my wife gave me a pass to do some late evening caching once our boys were in bed. Nice quick find here, found in the first place I looked. Just my luck though and I had to completely unroll the log to sign and then it took ages to reroll and return.

More time to kill waiting for the sister, so grabbed this one. Cheers

A very nice round... up and down the stairs... through Napier.
I was able to get a good look at the cans with the help of the hint...

Thanks for the cache.
Many greetings Pöni.

Find #200 for the Hall Buchans! Quick cache and dash on our geo e-scooters. Tftc

Fab afternoon geoscooting with the Hall-Buchan’s! TFTC

Quick find on an after dinner walk on our last night here before heading to Taupo. TFTC

Pen didn't work on the paper. So I took a photo of the log.

A nice quick find today.

Christmas holiday road trip to Auckland. Day five, from Napier to Gisborne.

Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches. Cheers.

Interesting view. There seems to be the remains of an old loco boiler. If it's anything like Oamaru, they just pushed the old steam locos into the sea to act as a sea wall (may they burn in hell!). Anyway, thanks for the cache. TFTC.

Found. Thanks for the cache!

TFTC nice stroll along the beach

Easy to find!

Found on lively HB day. Muggly to say the least! Tftc

Cache replaced and ready to find

Is it still here? Last four logs not found.

Unfortunately, no luck for me here today, but with two previous DNF logs, I only spent 5 minutes looking before flagging it away. Thx anyway.

The next person might be advised to bring a magnet and swing it around the grasses below.

Looking from the vantage point suggested by finds looked up and low from above.
No dice for me this time.
Looks like maintaining council crew have been through not long ago though

One day in Napier for D4nielB and me. While wandering along we also looked for some caches on our way.
This one was an easy find... although it is a nano.

Juliane

Today Jul1ane and me - after a nice hike in Otarara Pa - did a little hiking around the citiy, mainly to do two Wherigo caches. Along the way we also found some other caches.

This was an easy find.

Excellent placement, well done CO! I could see it from lower down then just sat next to it pretending to take photos of the shags sitting out in the branches in front. Super stealthy and easy, thanks!! (I'm still a bit jittery from the last retrieve up the road..!) More of these easy urban ones please

I'm from Switzerland and spend 4 months in New Zealand on vacation. Found this cache after a few minutes search, thanks.

MY colleg did Spot it first that nano .Lots of interesting rusty objekts lying about. Thanks from Swiss guy !

Quick find on a cool rainy day. Been back in the bay for a school reunion over the weekend and now doing some ca hung before heading home tftc

Have been planning these caches for a few weeks in conjunction with HKCB for a mad dash and effectively a 24 hour run (so that we could spend time with our respective families) for the rest of the ensuing weekend. Signed most/all caches as HKCD or some such other that we could fit in
Leaving Hamilton at 7pm Friday and getting home midnight on Saturday so that at least 6hours quality sleep was acheived, sleeping in the car is always a bonus (2 hours) and the remainder of the time caching around part of the country we hadn't previousley done a whole lot, but have left plenty for the next trip across the hill.

This was the ninty ninth of the100+ that we acheived in that time we were over here.
Thanks to all the CO's for the effort and giving some great caches, sorry about the repetitive logs but then 100 is a few to cover off.

Thanks for the placement, thanks for the cache

We had been talking about cache bash in Napier for a while, and when Cats&Dragons mentioned a trip down here this weekend I couldn't say no. The plan was to head down Friday night (leaving Hamilton about 7pm) and then cache til we can then grab a few hours sleep and then cache through til late afternoon and then head home. The plan worked well, with about 110 caches found over the 24 hour caching period.

It was the first time we had visited Napier to do a caching mission, and we were both impressed with the genius hides (some we hadn't seen before, I'll give a special mention to those ones). A big thanks to all the CO's whose caches we found, for placing and maintaining them. A great trip and looking forward to a revisit.

Thanks for the cache, nice wee hide

A quick find after a stroll down the seafront.

22327 Traveling through New Zealand to see nice people and places. Also to find some geocaches.

Today we moved from Masterton to Napier, seeing nice cities and visiting caches along the road. Stopping at nice villages. Finaly we went down town in the Art deco arae to walk an earthcache and find some more nearby

Most caches were found quite quickly. A few took more time. Sometimes they were too humid to write clearly. Muggles did not watch what we were doing.

So small...[:o)]

Zappyrenee TFTC and the fun it brought us. Theo

Found on the Way to Napier for a few day caching. Great sea views

This was the third day of my twelve day trip to go to the Wellington Mega. Today I arrived in Napier for a three night stay. This is a good chance for me to find a number of caches here.
I had to time things well with all the muggles around. It is a nice hide, but the log is full. TFTC.

Great spot for a cache and lovely morning for caching. Soon found and extracted but log full and a bit damp. Managed to find space for my initials BB. Thanks for the cache Blenheim Bear

Wir cachen mit dem Elchteam. ( känguru05, Mou12 und MrJona). Im Team macht cachen mehr Spass und einer hat meistens den richtigen Blickwinkel ( von unten oder von oben ). Momentan sind wir für 2 Monate in NZ unterwegs und sind begeistert von der Landschaft und den vielen Caches. Grüsse aus der Schweiz und TFTC

Ich reise mit dem Elchteam und cache gerne. TFTC

Ich reise mit den elchis1 und gehöre zum Team. TFTC
