03-Dec-23
With Davidson Clan and Gap (of Fap and Gap) Today was one of those outings that is best described as a Sunday drive. We had a variety of agenda, but caching was our main reason for beingWe met DC at the now familiar gateway into Neil Algar. This was our third visit after a couple of frustrating DNFs here. The recent replacement gave us some confidence We had no trouble finding the cache in the first place we looked. However, the nearby trees looked like theyd been recently pruned. This location probably sees a lot of maintenance and attention due to its neighbours. Its not surprising that the cache goes missing. Great to knock this one off! Thanks Elliotishere. TFTC.

As we were close by, we had to give this one another go now that it had been replaced. We enjoyed the walk, even in the slightly damp weather, to GZ. The cache was quickly located and we were pleased that we could turn this frown upside down. TFTC

Thanks for reactivating this cache. It’s a lovely peaceful walk and a neat sit and watch the ducks while logging this cache. Tftc.

Maintenance has been completed after many months. Now I have an explanation to the delay. Moving, farming and just life. Hopefully the cache stays in place longer than a few weeks this time. Thank you all for your patience in this time.

About 14 or 15 folk looked and haven't found it!
Must be exceedingly tiny.
Hope you live locally and can check this out....

I saw this published earlier in the day before I headed south, but once in Hamilton in the evening, saw it was still unfound, so Jagersmum and I decided to head to Matamata for a couple of caches and dinner. First stop here and a joint [FTF]. Very high - I managed ok to open the cache but it was a bit of a stretch to put it back. Nice park area. TFTC!!!
