Logs
We made a half day bustour, first visiting Kawarau Bridge, then Arrowtown and finally went up by Skyline Gondola. After tour we spent some time in city center where there was a huge crowd everywhere due to the marathon run.Found by looking for marks in the hedge, this kind of hiding inevitably leaves some traces. TFTC
Day 19 of our Enzed adventures with Robmc and today we supposed to bike ride from Arrowtown to Queenstown but the weather prediction was pretty ordinary. Instead we drove to Arrowtown and had a lookabout, did a couple of multis, an AdLab and some traditional offerings. Then we ran out of parking time and toured a little.Thanks for contributing to our amazing holiday Wilbywarrior his took a bit of patience as we hunted between muggles.
Day nineteen of our epic New Zealand Adventure with The Morris.Staying in Queenstown, with a crappy weather forecast we moved out the bike ride to Sunday, and drove up to Arrowtown. Lots in interesting places to see and just a few caches done.Hard not to cause a bit of damage to the hedge as the GPS was all over the place at GZ.Eventually spotted the bugger.Thanks, Robmc.
I geocache with a cacher from New Zealand in London and she showed me a neat trick which worked a treat here. I did have to wait for a muggle to move on first though. Thanks!
We have arrived in New Zealand and are enjoying the fresh air, the clear lake and the great landscape. We are exploring the area around Queenstown. But not without heading to one or two caches and finding and logging them. Virtual and lab caches always have interesting places and sculptures. We learn a lot and have a great day.Many thanks to all owners and greetings from the Moorhelmi from Germany
A few hours to spend in Arrowtown this morning. In the company of McLookers. No hedges damaged during the caching of this cache!Cheers
Needed two goes here and feathertop had he magic touch.Thanks for placing the cache Wilbywarrior.
#21111 - 11:57:45 AM; Arrived in Queenstown with the geohoney yesterday afternoon where we met up with Sol de lune and Solstice 26 at the airport and headed off to our accommodation for the next couple of nights, before we continue on to Dunedin for the GeoToroa Mega. The rain started overnight and without much opportunity for caching this morning, we set off for Arrowtown and a bit of local sightseeing as the rain contnued to fall steadily. Collected this cache while we waited for the girls to finish their mission along the main street for my first find in New Zealand. TFTC Wilbywarrior
In the area with LuckyL10n for a couple of days from Australia before heading over to Dunedin for the Mega. Took a minute or two but the neat little hide was soon spotted and the log signed. Then it was off to finish the AL before heading back to Queenstown.Thanks for this one Wilbywarrior...cache all good.
Not a quick easy find here as the container is well camouflaged, and my phone kept jumping around quite a bit. Nice little park in which we enjoyed a pie from the local bakery. TFTC!
Where should we settle to eat our delicious pies?Where theres a cache to find, of course! (And where there is a convenient bench!)The pies took a great deal less time to eat than did locating this well camouflaged cache. We both combed the hedge line several times before GR exclaimed Found it!. TFTC
We are visiting New Zealand for 2 weeks on a family holiday from Brisbane. Today we were driving from Te Anau to Wanaka, with a stop in Arrowtown. The rest of the family decided to get lunch at the bakery but there werent any gluten free takeaway options anywhere in town so I went back to the car to grab a snack. On the way back up to town I stopped to look for this cache. It took a little while to spot the well camouflaged cache but with a bit of persistence I eventually found it. Thanks for the cache Wilbywarrior!

Trouve After many attempts for this one I finally got it ! Here volunteering at the Arrowtown Autumn festival, beautiful weather with us today
This cache took way to long to find but we found it ! Tftc lots of muggles btw.
This took a while as we had to be sneaky. We did have a lovely old South African lady ask us if we had lost something in the hedge but we just said we were on a treasure hunt. Thanks for bringing us to this lovely little park. Arrowtown is just a gorgeous place.
This was a tricky one! We got to the area to find a lot of muggles, but thankfully, the cache wasn't too elusive, and Bapgirl was able to play defense while I retrieved the cache. A great hide, TFTC!
Thanks so much was a great challenge we found in about 10-14 minutes great hiding spot
Yahoo - got it on this sunning Autumns day. Very happy to be here in Arrowtown for Geomums birthday. TFTC and the smiley .

We came here earlier today w the LOTR Safari tour. We enjoyed riding down the river and panning for gold even tho I came up empty. Took a couple of minutes, and with the hint made the grab quickly. Thanks and visiting from Virginia, USA. Signed Kim$ and GG2GA.
TFTC Thank you for hiding this cache. You have shown us a new place and have helped make geocaching an enjoyable activity.
A lunch break stop in Arrowtown. EleniB has gone to find some retail therapy and I've wandered off to a local park to check the local caches. What could those two young people be searching for in that dense shrubbery? Could it be the Sezmcg team? Turns out that it was and the cache was found.Thanks for the cache, Wilbywarrior, took nothing, left nothing, travellers visited and the log was signed.
#4349Holiday in NZToday driving to Queenstown/ArrowtownVery nice place to visit.Nice looking main street, Thnx for showing
Found after dinner at slow cuts. What a lovely little town street! Thanks for hiding!
Found this one today after we had popped into town for a specific gift. Saw the cache straight away but I just couldn't unscrew it. Guess it had been mis-threaded or tighten too tight. Took a photo and will send it to the CO as proof of find. Thanks for the cache.
After a nice dinner we visit you to our way to the car. Best wishes from germany and thanks for the cache.
Luckily I spotted it after several minutes search. Not sure how you can look for it without damaging the hedges.
Second day of our road trip. Got packed up early before doing a couple more caches in Queenstown before heading to Wanaka via Coronet Peak and Arrowtown.Thank you to all COs for placing for our enjoyment
Hier hatte Jara36 rasch den richtigen Blick. Danke frs Herlocken sagt die Hamburg Hummel
Bottom of cache and logbook were found on the ground. Thread of container had been stripped so new cache and logbook placed. All good to go again.
