Sorry guys, we have moved away from Chch so we are unable to maintain this cache anymore (and it has gone missing now). Hopefully someone will re-establish one here.

It wasn’t there. You need to replace it.

7917. Easy find, in spite of the fact that I was looking for a pill bottle, not a bison tube! Love these containers for geocaching. There were no muggles around but several muggles at a holiday programme at the school. Log full. Thanks. Rodney.

A lovely sunny day and peaceful here between lunchtime & the end of the school day.
Thanks for the hide, jeremyisme.
PS the log is pretty full & I had no paper with me; could the next finder please put in another strip of paper?

GPS lead me right to the find the Hide was just hanging around so was easily in my hands nice little place for a hide enjoyed a swing before leaving which was a bit fun the Dismount was a bit messy but other than that very good good fun having a good swing I was by myself so couldn't see saw and I don't think the slide would have coped with my size fun times. Replaced the find is found.

When we saw the name,we thought yay another tip out to Greendale,but of course when we looked at the Map,the penny dropped.We didn't have to go that far at all
A Muggle Workman was just leaving and when he drove off we pounced.These Containers are brilliant for Log Books..TFTH

TFTC. It took us longer than necessary!

To keep up with my personal challenge of achieving a minimum of 10 caches finds per day I needed to find 5 caches today. At a briefing of my unfounds map I decided that the task could be done with a cyclocache ride in the Avonhead - Airport area.

I must have been pretty lucky here, for the reserve was empty of people and I found the cache in the first place I looked. [^] Thank you for the placement jeremyisme. I have now found 4 caches on my ride, so just 1 left to find.

Mmmm, then found it. Tftc

A good hide. Nice easy find. TFTC Cool

I arrived here about 8.10pm. No muggled, but also no light! I donned my head torch and headed for GZ. After a short hunt I started a slightly longer hunt. I widened my search, then, as I headed back to square one, I looked from a different angle and spotted something interesting. Yes! Got it! Given the colour of the container I have no idea how it was so hard (& how it avoids being muggled).
TFTC jeremyisme Cool

This took a wee bit of looking, spotted it as I was about to leave. Thanks

A little cruise around Christchurch to start the hunt for the Hidden Creatures. Will probably get as far as the dragon, with a trip away to Oamaru maybe.

Thanks to the CO's for placing and maintaining these caches. Cheers.

A nice quick easy find or did I just get lucky as I spotted something bright and shiny. Picked a time when it was nice and quiet. Tftc

This has been popping up as unfound on my commute but with the wet weather I've been making excuses. Today with some nicer weather was the day. Quick easy find at GZ and a well hidden and well prepared cache. Well done. Thanks for the effort that goes in to placing and maintaining the cache.

Very cute container, found easily in the dark.

An easy find on a very cold morning. TFTC
 
21-Jun-18
Like others we first thought that a country drive would be required, but a quick and easy find closer to home. TFTC
 
19-Jun-18
With that name we thought we were out for a country jaunt. Sigh!! Such is geocaching, but we did find a little something at GZ. Not too hard and quite dry after all this rain. Thanks, we enjoyed the chase.

Mad Monday Mission with TG. Nice to get out for an evenings adventure. Heading home from Ashvegas and the we headed to this one. Donned the rain coats and headed into the bush. Took ages to find. It was in the first place we looked. Oh I forgot. We bumped into Aslan and he had better eyes than us. Scored a joint {FTF}. Home now, it's a bit late.

Thanks for the cache jeremyisme.

**FTF** ~1015pm with TheWanglers and Aslan*
Monday night Mad Mission night with TheWanglers. Due to one thing or another it's been a couples weeks since our last adventure....so a bit of drizzly rain couldn't put us off (well; to be honest, it almost did)....Decided to head Ashburton way for a cache or two & a good catch up natter along the way (and head back before it got too late).
Heading for home & just coming through Burnham and TW noticed a new cache published in Greendale...greendale huts? isn't that in behind Lincoln? we're on the correct side of town, let's bust a move.....then TW looked a bit closer and saw that it was Greendale Reserve and it was in Avonhead...ahh. OK. Lets bust a move that way! Published a good 30min ago and still a weeny bit of a drive away. No worries. Soon enough arrived at GZ and started poking around....wasn't making much progress and then Aslan arrived - forces joined, but still not a lot of progress. Just about to give up when Aslan spied the tricky wee hide - a spot we thought w'd checked thoroughly - but obviously not! Co-ords pretty much bang on! Nice joint FTF to finish the evening & a wee catchup with Aslan t'boot. Nice. Thanks for the cache!

Was at Riccarton mall food shopping and was about to leave when I checked my phone and there was a new cache. For a start I thought it was in Greendale but then realized it was closer than that. Well it was on the way home (not really) so decided to take a look. There were already flashlights looking for the cache so I joined the search with TG and TW. I think we were all getting to the point of giving up for the night when finally the cache was spotted and made for a joint FTF. TFTH and great to see TG and TW again and a nice catch up in the rain on their way back from Ashvegas.

#3,264: Woo hoo!!!! 4TF!!
I was at home on a skype call with Germany when this one was published. Checked the inbox after the call, saw it was an hour since publication (on a Monday night!), and thought, well, probably already found. But, since it was a rainy night, and I wasn't sure where the Dynamic Duo had headed for the evening's foray, thought I might have a go. GeoMissus gave me a supportive "Go for it!" and off I went.
Got to GZ and started in on a quiet night in the rain. Bashed about a lot, and had seen signs of others, and so thought it must already be gone. Pinged TG after about 30 minutes (and after seeing his log), and he set me on the right path. Tricky at night! All good.
SL/TFTC!!
