#4168 Today is day 31 of my geocaching vacation in New Zealand. I was supposed to fly back to Taipei today, but there's a typhoon right on top of Taiwan. Instead of sitting at Auckland Airport, I'm flying to Palmerston North today and continuing my geocaching journey in North Island.Found it, right in front of me. I didn't really get to do the fun part. I tried to replace it to it's original altitude, but it got stuck in between and couldn't go up anymore. I guess that was probably why. TeamfuldyGeo, thank you for the cache! -crystaloops from Taipei, Taiwan on October 31, 2024 @ 15:34:50[GC8EP0T] Can I pulley-you up (Manawatu) was a D1.0/T1.5 Small Traditional Cache at the time of finding.
Really cool find Did it with my Grandma and friend. There first time! They loved it.
Found it had to pull down a rope to get it. Also, I put grass and flowers in it. I hope you enjoy!!
Took my friend out for the first time, what a great cache to start with! TFTC
Went out to get supplies for another cache and decided to finely get this one, always good to do something different, saw I think CO backing out of the drive when placing the cache back. TFTC.
Cute and fun! Had to stretch a bit to encourage over an obstacle but not hard at all. Mihi ki a koe no te keteroki
Found Oh this one is so cool!!I had a bit of trouble getting it past one branch and then a real estate agent showed up next door but i got it in the end.Tftc
With Gap (of Fap and Gap) Today was about the numbers. After completing two handy trails, we started looking for anything to boost our tallies Rain threatened to spoil things.We were drawn to this cache by its high number of favourite points. As soon as we arrived, we spotted both the mechanism and the cache. It took a bit of manipulation to retrieve the cache, but a very nice hide nonetheless. Thanks TeamfuldyGeo. TFTC.
Thanks for your amazing cache TeamfuldyGeo. I really appreciate the time you took to set up and maintain your caches. For your first effort it deserves a Favorite from me. Found with Fisha1288. Cheers, Cympull.
This was very fun. Coordinates on the phone were a little confusing, but soon enough, we spotted the right location, and the cache was quickly in hand. A very cool cache, FP added. TFTC!
Found it on the 26/12 with TrueMurphs but forgot to log until now! Very awesome find, TFTC
Off to Hastings today but spent a little while in Palmerston North to grab a few more caches to qualify for a challengeHere we parked nearby and went over to GZ. Looking in the wrong place to start with then spotted the tell tale sign and soon had the cache in hand. Log signed and all returned TFTC Tim and Viv - ddm
Cool and clever hide. Definitely worth the stop. Had a nice chat with a family member and the 2 puppies.Merry Christmas!Gets a fav!Tftc
Genius idea with the pulley. A pleasure to reward this cache by it being my 400th find. Many thanks for the cache.
I found it. It was very clever to use a pulley. It was the most interesting one that I found so far. Thank you
Up to Palmie for a Popmac event and barefootguru and I decided to team up for a bit of Palmie caching. A very fun cache and I was grateful for the height of BFG to give it a bit of guidance on its return. A FAV for the great cache. thanks TeamfuldyGeo.
Quick find but needed some guidance from the taller member of our party Thanks for lifting us up TeamfuldyGeo!
Brilliant! Popped up to Palmerston North from Wellington for the Palmy Drag festival. No problems finding or retrieving the cache on a quiet afternoon. TFTC
Very nice cache! Love the mechanics! Makes for a nice lunchtime stroll too. TFTC!
I had signed up for an event called 'The Mudder' in Marton, at the Rangitikei Farmstay, and thought that it was the perfect excuse to take a couple of days off work and go on a 5-day road trip to Whanganui and Palmerston North. All up I travelled 1,650km and found over 200 caches/ad lab stages mostly targeting high favs.Left my accommodation in Himatangi Beach quite early to make the most of the daylight hours. The wind had picked up and it was very cold and it was only going to get worse with a heavy wind warning for later in the day.Parked close by and made my way to GZ. Spotted what I was looking for and tried to retrieve the cache. I struggled to get it to come far enough as it gets caught and will not go any further, but thankfully I am tall and could stretch to extract. I can imagine those shorter than me could have trouble.
What an amusing cache - I wonder what the neighbours think - I'm sure they must have noticed some odd activity. Nicely done and well worth a FP. Thanks for setting this up TeamfuldyGeo
Another journey to the Manawatu from Kapiti with Flowerydaze hunting for caches. Lovely warm spring day for caching. Felt a bit exposed while operating the mechanism, drew a smile from the neighbour across the street. Gets a FAV from me. All good here TFTC TeamfuldyGeo
What a neat cache, all the mechanisms in it, very quiet on the street today, gets a fav point from me, tftc TeamfuldyGeo
I love this, very well though out mechanics. Very easy to find, coordinates spot on. It was slightly tricky to get because I'm very short. Log book signed.
Super cool cache. Drove past last week but there was no parks. This time I got one right where I needed. Very clever.
It's day twelve of this months Wheel of Challenges challenge, the streak, and what a day it has been. I got up at ridiculous o'clock and cached my way up to Palmerston North with very careful planning to make my arrival time coincide with the earliest of the possible publish times of a daily series that is appearing there (as it happened, todays one appeared an hour later than I was hoping). I then drove around Palmerston and almost half the way back to Wellington as I chased down a variety of caches that were on my todo list. This was one of them.
A clever wee cache on a suburban street. Well done.

Thanks to TeamfuldyGeo for placing and maintaining this cache. I enjoy each and every cache I find, and it is only with CO's like this creating them and placing them out in the world that this wonderful game continues.
[DGSc-Bulk] tagging to help me generate a list for GC30AD8 - DGSc Challenge.

This was SO COOL. What a great way to hide a cache! Found while scootering around Palmy. Tftc, so rad!!!
Visiting Palmerston North for a few days, found the cache and dropped off a trackable
I am down from Auckland for the Sprint car racing. Thanks for a great cache. Fav point.
*Catching up on some logging*
Miss 10 (UnicornLex) and I are staying with the Etherlord Clan over Waitangi Weekend. Today we are heading out for a spot of cache hunting. (What I mean to say is Etherlord is our own personal chauffeur around some interesting caches in Palmy).
What a great cache! Definitely gets a favourite from me.
Thanks for the cache.
