***** REVIEWER NOTE *****

Hi redfiat

It appears that this cache has been inactive for quite some time. Is it going to be replaced or should it be archived to make room for possible future caches? If the cache owner does not contact me by 21 October, I'll assume the cache needs to be archived.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,

WP1 is definitely gone. I found it a few months back but couldn't progress past WP2 due to nearby muggles. Got no further today at WP2 (not having coords), but searched using the clues. This one needs checking out too.

Apparently WP1 has gone. Will fix up soon.

Looked all around for wp1, with the clue in mind, but did not find a thing.Some signs of recent work at a tall concrete structure at GZ!!??

Finally able to come back a second time and this time all three way points were easy finds - find it hard to believe we didn't spot WP2 last time... wonder if it was there

Great multi - especially on such a lovely evening.

Thanks

Number 4 for the day after mountain biking out Woodhill.
Found all the points rather easily. It did take a bit of a search to find the final with the leaf litter around.
Cheers

On the way to WP1 the Japanese homestay student spied a cat resting under a bush beside the path and I had a bit of a job in enticing her away, the student not the cat. On to WP1 which she had in her hand quickly, but she couldn't find WP2, she was more interested in the little skinks that were scooting around.

So it was off to the final which was in our hands fairly quickly. A great little walkabout through a great area.

In: Racing car
Out: Motorbike (which is going back to Japan as a souvenir of her caching days here in NZ).
Cheers for the cache.

First WP was an easy find, but had to give up on the second in the end - couldn't find it, plus there were muggles who thought we were looking for tennis balls of which we did find two in the end!! And they weren't easy finds so we are not sure where we went wrong. It could have been the wine from the Kumeu Wine Fest!!

We will be back.

Quite suprised to find a slightly different version of suburbia tucked in behind the main road. Nice large sections and the residents must enjoy the ponds, trees and little network of pathways. This little multi is good fun. Many thanks

#469. Found after a pleasant day at Muriwai beach with Mrs. St. Ouens and the Ouenettes. TFTC.
P.S. there's no pencil in the cache so you need to take your own writing implement.

For once we chose the right place to park and ended up back at the car for the final. Nicely laid out cache, though glad no one was playing tennis.

A nice walk and found this area to be a bit of a hidden treasure. So often we have driven by. All found without too much bother and a well planned circuit. TFTC

Micros were straight forward, although had to search and search for the final until it eventually decided to reveal itself.

Saw this come up this morning, and thought we would try and give it go after lunch. So we were off to a local café and then onto the cache.

We parked at S 36 46.222 E174 29.615, which turned out to be a great place to park in the end.

We didn't have any clues with us, as is the way of finding FTF's, just the co-ords. So this made the hunt a little harder than it could have been.

The first micro was almost an immediate find, which gave us some confidence. The second one was a nightmare. And the last one was a little trickier.

All in all a good little cache and we saw some nice houses and a nice tennis court. Thanks for the cache.

Oh no, 2nd to find and we only live 50m away! We discovered there was a cache to be found, got on our bikes and completed all parts of the cache within 10 minutes, only to find we'd been beaten to it. Nice to have another cache so close to home. Next time we're on the tennis courts we'll be looking out for suspicious people loitering behind us.

Third to find... I guess you gotta be quick around here...

(Although I am the first to put the correct year! )

Went almost straight to the first micro. The second was harder to find, took a few minutes. The final cache, well, that was pretty difficult... Had to walk away and back a few times to get a good idea of the direction from the GPS.

Thanks!

Dropped off my coin collection.
