Neat spot, tftc!

Supervised the head and tried to watch children, but ... A clever hide, thanks!

Searched couple of minutes with no luck, then cleared the mind and the clever hide was staring right into face Thanks!

A nice quick find at the new bridge. First for the day. Thanks for placing your cache. Ms_KR and I are off on a cruise around the south of the South. Great to be away. The day was fine, and sunny around Te Anau with stunning views of the snow capped mountains and the lake.Occassionally signed MK+KR on cache logs, and apologies for the generic logs.Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches.

A favorite point for a sweet presentation. The foto won't help you and I don't know what it says, but I thought the nearby street art was well done.Thank you, Johnv2020

We were staying in Te Anau and today we were picking up a few of the local caches. Took a bit of searching with the vague clue. Spotted something out of place. Loved the hide. FAV point awarded. TFTC

Easy!

Well done on the hide!!!!

Chipping closer to 2000. That's about 1983ish. Nice bridge!!!!

TFTC great hide well made and thought out

The coolest wee cache! I love these types

With the river up and flowing like a rapid, I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to get this one. Was safe enough to search and soon spotted something of interest.
Thanks for the cache, Johnv2020

Back in Germany I now want to log my finds in this beautiful country. Thanks to the owners for their work and care. With some cases, of course, also a favorite point remains.

Cheers, Cympull.

Quick find here today made by the accommodating muggle in situ. TFTC! Great spot but others have used the nearby area as a toilet.

TFTC. Very well made and cleverly hidden!

Now just where could this one be? Took a short while to spot this cache. was it that? Wow yes. Very well made & looks like it should be there. A favourite for this clever one.

Was going to walk from here to the lake but the temp is 26 and the trail is fully exposed so no

Good hide. TFTC

I love these hides.
Have found a few now and always smile when i come across them.

Cool bridge i wouldn't have discovered without geocaching to guide me..

I'll drop a favourite here for taking me here with a geocache, the great cache design and cool wobbly bridge.

Thanks johnv2020 for upping the geo anty in the area.

Short walk from the campsite for this. Struggled at first but got some help from a very kind German cacher who got the lowdown on the LC bonus in exchange. Great to meet him.
Good camo!
Tftc

Today we went to Milford Sound.
On the way back we have had a look for this Cache.

I was showing my brother and sister-in-law what caching was all about, so I'm glad we came upon this one. TFTC.

That is an awesome cache. Had to get it twice as my pen ran out and I had to go find another one. Number one rule- always have two pens in the car. TFTC Fav point from me

This was our favourite hidden cache today to find. Very well done.

Awesome job guys, that took us ages to find!

Heading to Milford Sound for the day with a few stops of course! Nice quick find here TFTC

After an epic 4 days walking the Milford track and a couple of nights in te anau to resupply and get my truck fixed, it's time to hit the road for a few more adventures...quick find after spending a couple of nights up the Milford road... back to te anau for the night and then where.....

Great little cache.
It will be great when the trail carries on to Te Anau Downs!
Found with my son FW.

Very sneaky

Ttfc

Found on our last day in Te Anau. Nice hide. TFTC

Very clever. Tftc

A day out chauffeured by mugglish hubby to reach the peak, a few options for directions so headed where the rain radar shows it should be clear.
This should be the last cache needed for the peak of Everest. Yay!
Spotted quickly, and needed some yoga style moves to get there and back with the ever moving surface.
Thanks for the cache Johnv2020

Ingenious container. Nice new bridge. TFTC

Found this while on a nice walk around the lake front.

The plan has been a in the cards for a while. I failed to complete the Routeburn track due to poort weather and wanted to finish it.
5 years on, I invited Keylev to come along as I was sure there was some caching to be done. a year on and here we are.

This one caught me out totally! Don't touch the cables as they are well greased up. Keylev eventually spotted the clever hide! TFTC and fave point.

Nice hide, a lot of work required to create container. TFTC

Its been a long time in the planning but finally the week long trip to the South Island to complete the Routeburn Track is here. Day #1 we have landed and are on the way to Te Anau. After checking into our accommodation B4Dawn and I headed out for some caching whilst our muggle friend had a little rest.

Stopped across the road and was grateful for a little stretch of the legs. At first pass under the bridge we couldn't find the cache but then I spotted something that fitted in so well that would easily have been overlooked....aha there you are...very clever...definite favourite point!

Thanks for the cache.

2571. Another nice hide. TFTC!!!

Hooray, nice hiding place
