Very sorry to hear about the accident.... unfortunately this cache will be archived from now on.

Loggers should read the cache owners profile page before they log.

Owner needs to check and/or replace cache!!

Needs maintenance

Searched for a while then gave up and read the logs.. See no one has found this for quite a while.. Suggest owner achives or replaces.. (at least make it unavailable for now). Thanks

Im pretty sure this one is gone. Replace maybe?

Approached with GPS from a numer of angles just to make sure I was not totally wrong but certainly no success in the clue area.

had a good look for this one but no sign of it

Looked twice today for this cache. Scratched around on the surface and under bushes around tree but found no trace of the cache. Had to contend with a lot of muggles as finally a nice day

Easily found on a sunny Dunedin afternoon. TFTC

Down the street from a friend's office. At first, I thought it was trash, but then a bit of a closer look ... TFTC.

#4455 23:54 Found after caching up Mt Cargill in a blizzard at night. Nice to be back to just rain! TFTC

first cache found. me and little teddy

first cache in over 6months. Found with help from freerunone TFTC

Quick find. Took nothing. Left initials.

Found it no problem. Great clue. I also dried out the inside, and replaced the wet logs with a new dry piece of paper. So please take care to keep the interior dry, and close the lid tightly.

Nice one TFTC

Easy find while visiting Museum. Cache was very wet though.

Cache is very wet. Needs drying and new logbook

Quick and easy, thanks!

Quick easy find, TFTC!

Nice easy cache!

This cache is very wet inside .Hard to write on the wet paper
TFTC

FOUND IT BUT FULL OF WATER

QUITE HARD NOT TO GET MUGGLED GOOD FUN

Took a few minutes as we didnt know what sort of container to expect. TFTC

Found this pesky damned cache. Only after our 4th 700 kilometre trip to Dunedin and our 7th attempt at looking for this. Now its a smiley. YAY!!!

TFTC SL TNLN easy find not many muggles about lovely day

TFTC!

Walked up and down half an eye looking for the cache the other watching out for muggles. Old Boots convinced we weren't going to find when my hand felt the cache. TFTC

A sneaky wee spot, thanks very much!

totally hard to disguise my actions w/o looking like a fool whole had dropped all my stuff

nice micro. night cache, tftc.

thanks for bringing it back, so i could take it back, to the old school TFTC

Definitely easier to go unnoticed with a group to disguise actions. TFTC

TFTC. Easy find; had to utilise the old "I'm using my cellphone" trick.

Thanks for getting this one back up and going griggonator. It is a sneaky wee hide and great to see it's still going. TFTC.

Cache replaced.

Seems to not be there any more, will be restored shortly.

No luck. Is it still there?

Jumped fence and had a good look through but couldn't find it! A yellow pencil was found in what I believe was the spot, but no cache. Maybe next time.

quick stop before museum but no luck!

This one has evaded us again.

You do need long arms with this one. The black 200ml shifted in behind the tree and down the little bank.

Finally found after a few looks. Turns out I was looking in slightly the wrong place

tftc

Found by Team Hot PJ's Eagle Eye whilst on a visit to Dunedin from Chch.

Now we finally know what a cabage tree is! TFTC TNLN SL

Found on the way back to motel after a late evening walk with almost nobody around. Signed log, TFTC!

Can't quite figure out why it wasn't that easy last time... Cheers Gav [3762]

Found this one whilst caching with Moneydork and Rediguana.

Went straight to it this time.

Tried to do it before dinner but gave up due to the muggle traffic. A quick extraction after dinner.

In: Geocoin.

Cheers for the cache.

Easy find, just a matter of timing to pick up and return with a steady stream of muggles passing nearby. TFTC

Found this cache with my personal travel bug Ice Age Scrat along our 3 moths trip around the whole New Zealand,
19:50
Found on the third grab (I'm still not enough qualified in recognazing native bush NZ trees...), TFTC

Found with Sebdino

Took toy car and left nut and bolt.

Sat for a think, reached, found and logged. TFTC

Waiting waiting waiting for the traffic lights to change on our way out of town, we realised that there was a cache about 80m away. So FINALLY when we got a green light and got around the corner, we pulled over, and went a hunting. Took a wee bit of tracking down, but PB put his hand on it in the end. TNLN TFTC

Found by McAdies on our holiday around the South Island.
Nice easy find, Thanks!

found after a day of study now my muggle friend knows I am nuts. Took nothing left toy car

Easy find on a fine (at last) day. 7th and final of the day.

Nice easy find on our holidays. TNLN. TFTC

Easy find - muggle free TFTC

A quick find, right where it should be. TFTC

My first Otago cache!
Found on a miserable wet day, avoided the gaze of muggles. No GPS either!
TNLNSL

Cheers,
Blarghster.

Muggled by a collegue from Wellington as I had a spare few minutes on route to a seminar. Co-ords were 10m out for me. TY.

Found on second visit. Moved a bit closer to where the clue indicated.
TNLN, Thanks 'spirit of Elgnard'.

Decided to grab this one later in the day as when we where here earlier we couldn't get a gap between muggles. So under the cover of darkness we returned - only to end up dodging a campus security patrol.

Quick find on a 30degree day

A quick scrummage in the litter, and I found it this time!
Putting it back so that it couldn't be seen was a bit more difficult, though lucky I had a small torch with me to check!
TFTC

Quick find,no one around. TFTC

Didn't find this. Not where the clue says. May have been further back in the garden, as I see it has been found since our visits.

look twice but we still could not find this thing.

Tactiley blind too, at 12:20 am hoped to avoid muggles, but guys in a van drove past and yelled "muggled " at me- and I thought I was being very discreet- they must have been cachers. Will try again soon.

#509 (3/3 chc->dud). We'd Failed to find this one just over a year ago. This time we got there in the end (GPS had us some way south, location did not quite match where we expected from the hint). Good to get this one in the end.

Our second attempt and still difficult to find. Need to have a stick or something similar, if your arms are shorter than an orang-u-tuan's.
TFTC.

Easy find today - for some reason we were tactilely blind yesterday. Took geocoin.

Thank goodness for the information board which told us which tree was the cabage tree, otherwise we would still be looking. Left GC. TFTC

Took awhile, but no muggles around on this Sunday

Thanks!
Wandrr and Mrs Wandrr, Ottawa, Canada

Took a while but found in the end. TFTC

Nice easy find. TFTC

Sounds like we were very close after talking to people at the Christchurch event cache today. Must have been very close to finding it. It sounds as though it isn't quite where the hint suggests. Cheers Gav

Quick find while waiting for a shop to open. +Signal to Tennessee Geocoin

An interesting and busy place, certainly had to time getting the cache for when it is quiet.
Thanks
ernienz

A good one to do after our museum visit. Spotted by Little Explorer. TFTC.

COOL CACHE HAD TO WAIT TILL MUGGLES HAD LEFT.
TFTC

Just as i was going to give up i spotted it.
TFTC.

2245. We had car problems so didn't know if we'd get any caching done today. We had a loan car and decided to go and see the butterflies at the museum which is certainly an experience not to be missed! When we came out we realised that we were parked right beside this cache so it became our first find for the day.

Thanks
Iris & Rodney

Quick grab in the Centre of town. Not too many muggles today.
Took a bit to find but came up with the goods.
TFTC SL TNLN

Walked right pass the cache and saw it but never logged will save for another day!

Driving past, and with all the available parking spaces we could not do anything else but stop.
Very appropriate title.

Thanks.

Quick and easy at a quiet time of day. Just had to wait for the right cycle of traffic lights... TFTC.

nice easy find,even saw a mouse cleaning itself beside cache

Quick easy find after visting the butterflies (well worth a visit if you have time) TFTC

Not going to admit to how many visits this cache took to finally find but it was a few over the last 12 months.

Lots of people basking in the Dunedin sunshine, but luckily they were absorbed in reading and texting. Love the pun!

Delayed a bit by passing foot traffic, butfound easily after that. TNLN Thanks

Found with kiwimum visiting from San Diego. Quick grab on our walk to town from the motel. TFTC.

Resorted to the hint, quick find after that. Have walked past here during the day so many times, so good to finally get it. TFTH
