Bledisloe Gazebo (Manawatu) Summerhill, North Island, New Zealand
By Tararua Turtle on 06-Apr-07. Waypoint GC11YN7

Won't be replacing this cache as the gazebo is in a state of disrepair and my original hide no longer available. Still a great spot to visit, so will consider another cache site in this locale in due course.
Gone but not forgotten!

Gone. Will consider the options for a replacement.

I'd be surprised if this one has been muggled. But I need to go check on my nearby cache, Loop de Loop, so will do a check on this soonest and report back.

Couldn't find it. Searched and searched. There looked like there had been a party in the vicinity. Maybe it was moved? Will try again as it was a nice walk.

found it without to much difficulty. Nice spot!

A nice quick find after negotiating the muddy tracks in. Man the ground is wet! Cheers Gav [2444]

Nice sunny day and area. The nano size almost isn't a misnomer!

Found easily. Found a bag of firewood and paper inside which was a bit disconcerting and weird.. Who would bring such a thing here? Was there a sinister plot afoot to torch the structure!! Hope not?

The park is really great! I like it! It was only a little bit wet today.

Wow - hard to see gazebo, almost completely hidden by trees. Nice walk through the park. TFTC.

Log book replaced and cache rehidden. All up and running again.

Replacing log. Offline for a few days.

Maintenance - back online shortly

Nice little walk with 2 disobedient little white puppies.
Had to be sneaky with this one muggles were everywhere.

Nice to see the grounds have finally been mown down by the gazebo but obviously not being mown as frequently as they used to be. Trees round gazebo getting big.

great walk, didn't know about this park, the location was very sneeky and the cache was a nifty little container.
Beautiful sunny day.

(149) Wow, nice spot - I had no idea the park went this far back. this is within a few hundred metres of the first cache I ever did (sometime back in 2004 I think) with friends.

Logbook is nearly full (last page) so will need to be replaced soon.

Finally found the park entrance, and after a relaxing brisk walk, the cache was in hand, a nice location for GZ. Was worried at first, but soon had the container in hand.

Nice Gazebo. Took a nice sit down from the blazing sun.

Great fun, nice walk in park-like surrounds. Description very good and clue useful.

Great area, I'd never been here, even though I studied here once upon a time!

about this date tftc

Nice spot for an afternoon walk.

Making up for lost time.... the great Cache Dash! TFTC

Elegant little waterproof micro. "The Rustle" finangled it from its hiding place. A pity that the gazebo has got so run-down over the years.

great walk good hint.thanks

A difficult little micro to see. Great spot, thanks for bringing us through the park.

Wonderful day - wonderful place. Well worth the visit. No worries about muggle activity here.

Walked up here through the park from the nearby Loop de Loop cache on a very pleasant summers day. Surprisingly there was nobody else about. Nice hide. Many thanks.

What a great place for a cache.
Trout in the river, fantails and tuis in the trees and sun in the sky.

A lovely quiet walk on a pre Christmas Sunday.
What a hidden gem of a place, oh so overgrown now.

Last one for the day. Great grounds for a Uni, and a quick find. TFTC

Neat little spot, nice walk on an awesome sunny day. Cool little cache too.

Seemed to find a shorter way in. Looks like a party happened here last night, rubbish everywhere, too much for a one man CITO.

Knocked this one off while on the way back to the car, after finishing University challenge.

3.00pm. A nice easy find which I did while down here after finding Loop de Loop. Thank you. David

Nice area. Lots of perfume from the flowers.

Part of a ten-cache foray into the Manawatu -easy find, enjoyed the walk in the park.

Squelch! Got quite muddy visiting this cache with bones and the rainbow B. An easy find, even with no GPS, and a nice location.

Beautiful park we never knew existed. No people around, only birds

the kids got the one good hide

Nice quick find. Very nice park/reserve though rather muddy in places after recent rains.
Many thanks.

Got to GZ but left clue in the car - looked for a while but it got dark. Went back to the car for clue and torch and found it easily.

Nice area, well done.

My first cache, nice little walk, bit wet though as it was raining

Great hide! Easy to find, this was our second trip to this one, but this time we were a member.

found it with Muttly

What a lovely place for a cache! Ray Zerr, Peter and I had a cool walk through the autumn maple leaves to this cosy haus win. Another good location, TT.

I have walked through this park so often, but never seen this place - nice hide.

Thanks, Deb

Nice area, quick easy find. Fun.

nice sunday outing loged in

[0Paco0 and Red found it (the dogs stayed in the car).

Congratulation on your 100th cache, MalcomB.
Was that you fixing up your shoe when we came barging around the corner?

Beautiful autumn afternoon stroll at the end of a great weekend(CITO event in Porirua yesterday).

Nice placing, Turtle!] Looks like a neat gazebo for in your own garden - some grape vines twisting their way to the top of it.

Found without difficulty. A very attractive place that I had not visited before. Thanks for providing the motivation!

This lovely park is not well known, and is an excellent choice for a cache site, thanks.

A great spot, nice little cache easily found TFTC

Risked a car breakin for this micro, are we mad? Just made us walk a bit faster. We had parked in the carpark but the next door car had just been attacked...broken window, so we moved on to another place to park close by. A very quick walk through this lovely park. As we came out a white car was parked and looking closely at the signboard....were they cachers too??

Thanks.

Found by Uppie and Ammie at 3.00pm. Missed Punga and Paua who also found today. Absolutely marvelous day (and spot)

Great Spot. I study at massey and had no idea a park like this was here.

Nice location.
Found the cache easily after reading the additional hint.
My first FTF, yay.
