Trees cut down, diggers been in the area. - Bitsprayer

Easy no pen

Better luck with this one. Quickly found and onto the next.

We almost gave up on this little walkway after the last one appeared to be missing, but thought we’d continue on for another try. And this one is still there. Found with Debsnz.

Easy

The walk beside the stream is nice. Didn't come back by the loop.

Quick find

A short walk to quickly find the cache. Last time I cached in here I was dive bombed by a magpie but thankfully nothing like that today

Tftc,big pines hope they do not cut down soon

After a fairly long and intense day on the road caching yesterday, today I planned to take a more relaxed approach, finding a few more caches on my drive from Oamaru to Christchurch. A short walk around the Glenavy Reserve Track made a change from the mostly park and grab caches I was finding today. On approach I thought, no not there, but yes there it was. TFTC, Biggles.

Found with mangoambs while touring Otago. Nice spot. Thank you for the cache.

Road tripping around otago and geocaching along the way. Found with everdene22. Tftc

After spending ages at #2 (and not finding it), we were pleased to have a quick find here. TFTC.

Out of DUNEDIN and headed to Nelson for a week. On a mission to tick off our 2000th cache on this trip. Made the milestone on the previous cache but there are more to be found so we carried on.

I am traveling with my daughter Lucinka mundlinka and son Negrritos across the New Zealand. We are from Prague, Czech Republic. We love "geocaching", the main target is caches )
Many beautiful caches, amazing and unforgettable experiences, thank all owners, TFTC )

Found

A planned geocaching trip with specific targets in mind.
1: The final 2 caches to fill my D/T grid
2: The last 5 caches available (all in the South Island) to meet the NZ Jasmer challenge GC4R9Z6
3: Get as many caches as possible in a day (Solo)
I had no timetable and only a vague route (Christchurch - Dunedin- Invercargill). So after 20 days of sleeping in my tent/car I arrived home having traveled 4500km and visited some interesting places. Met some great people. I had found over 650 caches. That was a lot of park. Jump out out. Find cache sign and return. Then on to the next. All this done by myself. Also attended an event and had 2 FTF
Mission 1 and 2 were achieved and I had a best day of 153 caches. All this done by myself.
Day 14 Herbert Forrest to Waitaki 51 caches found today. Missions completed by now so caching my way back up the island. Thank you for the placement.

A quick easy find on a pleasant walk in the shade of the trees on this walkway. TFTC

I had a bit of time up my sleeve so after using the nearby facilities I decided on a short stroll to finish off this series. This one took me a bit longer to uncover than the previous one.

For my personal challenge of working towards getting my calendar on GC.COM to be at least the same shade of green or darker I need to sign off at least 10 caches today. I won't grumble if I find one or two more. I had shifted my snail shell back in Oamaru for a few days on my way further south.

Time for a little walk to sign off a handful fof caches.

Cheers for the cache.

Out geocaching with WGHS for activities day, quick find - TFTC.

A quick find of the 4 caches in this reserve. We targeted these as we were keen to stretch the legs a little and these looked like a nice little walk. Did not attempt the one further on that required a stream crossing, TFTC Bitsprayer.

Day 7 of 8 of a trip around the South Island. Today, it’s Oamaru to Christchurch.
We hit the road at a reasonable hour, but not before stocking up on lollies from the factory shop here in Oamaru.
The aim for today was a few targeted older caches, as usual on this trip, and some short walks around other areas just to stretch the legs, as well as the odd PnG where we could. Kept track of time the whole way as it’s mum’s birthday and we have a dinner date in Christchurch. TFTC to all COs, we had a good day of travelling.

This was the 3rd of this batch. TFTC

Like a needle in a haystack but I found it, hooray! Thanks, Bitsprayer. #2998

Fine winters day, time to get back out and to some caching. Nice little walk in the sunshine. TFTC

An enjoyable walk collecting a few caches as we head North. This one took a little more looking before the sharp eyes of Mr EU located the hiding spot. TFTC

Hint almost had us fooled!!! But with a "little stand back and look" we spotted it. Enjoying the track. Sooo wide. Thanks.

We were in Dunedin for the weekend - celebrating the little bros graduation.

On the drive home, we had a stop here with the whanau, as mum was really keen to collect the caches. Good stretch of the legs, and finds weren't too tricky either

TFTC!!

The location of a frequent stop on the way north, so this time we had a good reason to stretch the legs more and go for a walk! Pleasant stroll and easy finds, TFTC!!

cache replaced, clued updated - Bitsprayer

Had the chance to recheck today. Still can’t find tho the other day I had guessed the hint and had looked.
Due to recent dnf I’m guessing this one may need maintaince, owner to check out

Due to recent DNA’s, owner may need to check it out. Cheers

Sadly not loaded for offline use and couldn’t find in short limited time frame I had so another day

Didn’t find but found a that we are guessing was out if it. Found the round black thing.
Looks like someone had a real search around it.

Found the black and round bit No cache there

On our way to Christchurch we also stopped in Glenavy Camping site. We explored the closer area around the site and found this cache as well.
Unfortunately this cache remains hidden for us. Either we misunderstood listing and hint or we the box is gone. Please check.

Nevertheless thanks for showing the place says anbo68 from German

Was going to Oamaru for a day trip with Mrs Yeetrees as she wanted to go for a ride and pick up a few caches as I wanted to train her how to cache with a phone. We also needed to go and get a new microwave for her dad as I was getting a bit annoyed with the one that he currently owned as it was made when the dinosaurs walked this planet as it was so slow in heating up things that it basically took 4 times longer than it should.

After finding GC7DKG2 - Glenavy Reserve Two, this was the next cache that we had on our list to find today.
I let Mrs Yeetrees out to search for this cache as I followed her path down this lovely walkway, it only took her a few seconds to work out were this cache was and was able to retrieve it, signed and then replaced it was found.

Thanks Bitsprayer for placing this cache here and for bring us to this spot, will be interesting to see how long this cache will last here for, TFTC TNLNSL (12894),

I had a goal to get to 2000 finds before the end of the year so a 2 day caching mission to Oamaru was in order. I started day 2 with a lovely wee walk around Glenavy Reserve. A beautiful morning and it was so nice walking along hearing the birds singing and the nearby stream flowing. A wonderful start to the day although this one had me going "round" in circles before I spotted something and BINGO! TFTC

This number three was obviously the next one along the walk as I had come in from the opposite entrance. Very pleasant stroll along beside the stream in the shade. TFTC # 11,680

Between Oamaru and Rakaia we had four major stops to find caches. The first stop was at the picknick area by Pukeuri, where we found two caches with some historical aspects, then we stopped at the Glenavy Reserve walkway at Waitaki river bridge.
We moved on to Timaru and did some caches from the Saltwater creek walkway where we met Canadian geocachers and had a nice chat and our last geocaching stop was at Ashbury for a part of the Lake Hood trail.
After a short chat with a kiwi, who was there because he had better cellphone reception then at home, we went for this trail and we found 5 caches on it.

Up for business, thought grab some caches on the way home. TFTC

Thanks

A nice quick find on a quick walk around the reserve. Cheers.

Time for some final caches around Oamaru, and then cruise on home, with Kiwi Moose. Signed the logs K2MR for brevity. Thanks to the CO's for the Caches.

Out and about with Karma Reprint this weekend, getting a little tired of caching. Har har, a joke, geddit? Cheers

With GPS coverage reduced to zero and the rain and cold making the walk miserable we missed this one. Thanks. Rodney and Iris.

Found whilst visiting the Oamaru Geofest with Rediguana.
Sorry about the generic log - I have had GPS issues so have had to recover the list of caches that I found today in order to log them online.

TFTC nice quick find

Oooohhh I get ya!

Nice woods

Braved the magpie and found the cache.

Nice quick find. One to go. Cheers Gav

Found whilst on the geofest race. What a great race.

Caching with our NZ friends, signing as TTT. Enjoying traversing the area and finding lots of caches. Nice little of stretch of the legs. Tftc

On hte way to the Oamaru Geofest with Taybeedragon, and stopped here to get some tree time after I don't know how many hours in the car. I spent a little time here walking in circles waiting for the GPSto settle before I saw the obvious hide. Nicely appropriate!

like the hint

Time for a couple of caches before our meet and greet this evening. With Zara and Toby parked up - lets get these feet walking in this great reserve.
Enjoying being out among my friends the trees. Another one snagged and tagged. Cheers

Had a chuckle to myself when I spotted the hint quick find tftc

I will try this one another day as a magpie objected to me being in the area. Scary birds when they are in the mood to attack.

I had a really lovely time walking in the woods with dghoffy. Wonderful to stretch out legs!

I am heading down to Oamaru with LSteamer. Not long now until the geofest.
Somehow my numbers got messed up. So I went from 1 to 3

Find out more about New Zealand's next big event [Oamaru Geofest](http://oamarugeofest2017.wixsite.com/geocachingevent) and come and join us.

Thanks. Bitsprayer for putting in the effort to hide this geocache. This was find 5117 for me.

Cache soon found after identifying the hint object. TFTC

Just before I left home to make my way towards Geofest 2017 I quickly loaded this and the other 4 recently published Bitsprayer caches into my gps. Nice quick find. I see I'm following in the footsteps of drawp today. TFTC

Yay - first to find 12.32 pm - certainly black and white!!
