Cache archived. A new cache to be hidden in a new locatrion nearby.

Called by to check the cache as it hadn't been found in a while. No sign of the cache anywhere. Disabled while contemplating replacement.

very sneaky, we both pushed this over looking for the cache

Nice Spot, tricky cache

Great little spot, I am so pleased the GPS was accurate might have been a bit of fun if it hadn't. Thanks so much.

11:33 Canterbury Raid. I surveyed this river when I was at 'varsity for vegetation. There were no houses here then... Just farms. Loved the play on words in the title...

Uplifted the Logbook Geocoin. SL - Many Thanks.

Called by for a mainataince check. All is well. Left a geocoin.

Easy find before going to regents landing. TFTC

A great idea for a cache. So obvious but different. Good to go to a reserve, that I didn't know existed. TNLN. Thankyou

A bit boggy round here (watch where you step) but cache in great condition. TFTC

Great hide - very interesting experience...cache used to search with without knowing (dig, dig, dig!!!!!!!!!!!) Have fun (we had a great laugh!) First cache for my mum. TFTC. TNLN Cheers Richbritty

nice wee park, fair bit of water in the creek.

Cheers Froogal

Quick find, nice wee park just off a busy road.

Thanks Bitsprayer

A really cunning hidey-hole..... good find for little spud. Toof 2 stickers & badge, left marble and butterfly, forgot my stones.

Was off for some retail therapy but couldn't resist this as was only stones throw away! Got off to a rocky start & about to hit the wall but trusted the GPS to find styx & stones. All contents OK after rain & snow. TFTC TNLN

After a meandering, found it. Didn't expect it TFTC

I loved this cache a really good hide I have never seen one like this before it was snowing when i got it. Thanks harley5447 TFTC
- canada geocoin and pathatag
+ nz music month badge
+ Draco magnet
Not much room for anything else

This was one of our favourite caches found this trip! The suprise of a lovely little hidden park, a wonderful hide, two excellent coins, and a beautiful rainbow as we were leaving all added to the mix. Annie had a quick find on the cache, more by serendipity than plan though!!
+ Canada geocoin and a pathtag
- Lello Gnome and Yellow Bus geocoins

A reasonably easy find.

this cahe is very clever. I thought this thing was not the cache but it was.

One muggle but easy to be invisible. nice reserve. hard to imagine now all the fuss the adjacent transfer station siting caused at the time how ever many years ago. TFTH , TNLN

Never seen a cache like this before, found it my second time round.

Thanks,

NTNL

Cycled by to replace the log which I had been advised was full. City care staff were on the job at the location. Had a chat about the weed spraying with them while taking a rest. They didn't stay long and I was then able to maintain the cache. Left 2 geocoins

What a clever cache had a good laugh when we finally found it.The best one yet. TFTC

Nearly caught us out. Excellent place for a cache.

Our third find for the day, all cache's hidden by Hello Mrs.
Nice, fun hunt.

Cheers

Great Cache.Nearly gave up with kiwicachers but hey!!!!!!! Yipee! we found it!
We found it!
This is what my cache emergency mystery used to look like.....
TFTC ClownyCacher

Um......
I picked up the Geocoin in the cache but i already left it in another cache but i dont know the GC number..
Sorry for the confusion
ClownyCacher

Mr Explorer did this one while the girls were at the Mall. You got him big time with this one - won't say too much but you know what I mean - suffice to say that he had the cache in hand twice. TFTC.

loved this one. hadn't looked it up beforehand but geocaching nearby and popped by. almost missed but hey, found it!! TFTC. nice spot with our dog. +sticker -stone as didn't see stone swops only and a few other swops there. thanks Hello Mrs!

Parked on the wrong side of the river, but finally sorted it out. Sprang on the Organist who was trying to act innocent!! Nice hide. TFTC

Just collected the cache when four strange looking folk arrived. Turned out to be Tramper Ted and the gang. Phew. I was caught red handed! Dropped off Diabetes Geocoin.

#165
Nice park. We almost leave without find it but then I saw something... strange, and yes!!! there it was. A hidding place we've never seen before. Thanks a lot for this beautiful cache. Greetings from Spain.

Easy find with Wilson#41.
Lovely spot.
TNLN

What a fantastic place! Birds all around us on a Sunday Morning..
I saw it straight away, but didn't realise it at the time... An easy find with kwaka40. Number 8 of the weekend.
Worth the walk in the wet grass (wet socks all day!) for this great place just off the main road.
TFTC!

Had me fooled, even though i've these before. Cheers - M@

Nice park and inyeresting cache. Thanks.

Really enjoyed this one. Didn't know I had it until I didn't have it! Pleased with this find as had forgotten to read your notes before setting out and approached it from completely different direction.

Found with Troodles on a still summer evening. Second attempt for me. Took a little while; ingenious hiding place.

hahahah that was soooo funny....i found, i dug, i heard hollow noice, i dug some more..confused...i was...then i laughed and laughed and laughed....thank you

#1105 Took a couple of minutes of searching in the wrong place before realising that the GPS was not lying. Great hiding place. TNLNSL DS8300

Wow - that was an easy find - it was the first thing I searched Nice wee reserve too. Cheers Gav [1746]

Excell cache, loved it.

Would have left a Geocoin or 2, as there was room in the cache.

Thanks for the hunt.

quick find, nice cache. tnln cheers

Nice little spot and a rather good hide, luckily the GPSr was spot on or I may have missed it.
TFTC

Cunning Hide in a suprisingly pretty spot.

TNLN TFTC

What's a last pre-xmas dash to Christchurch without a couple of caches? We are trying for an "Hello Mrs Trio". Another great spot and a cool container. TFTC TNLNSL

Found with rchdlyn after Christmas Shopping. TFTC TNLNSL
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Got to the entry after a few wrong turns, Walked up to GZ and spotted the cache, my fav, muggles never see these!

Nice wee park, sun was out, 20th? for the day so far?

TFTC

We came here after finding TBC. What a cool cache! We had to hide it again quickly when Mr beltfamily caught up with us.

And Mr belfamily ran out of steam on that cache. 3rd day of 5am-10pm non-stop caching had caught up (it's my excuse and I am sticking to it) and I couldn't find this one. What can you say? [D:]

Hehe! My leg is feeling distinctly longer after this one. Firstly having driven round in circles a few times looking for the way in... Then coming closer, and seeing the wall, and thinking oh, no! - and then realising that was actually a bit further on - then grabbing it, and not realising! Very good! TNLN, Thanks.

Sneaky hide - walked to this cache from Lions Rock - great little walk and a good pair.
Took Blue Car, Left Souvenir Spoon.

Great! Our first find. Took us 2 visits as we don't have GPS but had to look closely via Google Earth. Boys were excited to find. Thanks

Yes I did enjoy this cache , very good,, nice and easy,,cheers and thanks

I was on my way to visit this caches owner and thought since I hadn't done this one and I was passing that it would be rude not to find it GPS took me to the exact spot, making a find fairly straight forward despite the best attempts to trip me up. Thanks Hello Mrs for another great cache. TNLNSL

Logged from my phone using the Geocache Navigator by Trimble

I love this one - not remotely well hidden, yet nigh on impossible to see! Even so, I would still say an easy find.
TNLN, thanks for bringing a smile to my face.

I was looking after my niece and nephew for a few days and decided a walk along the railway line with the dog would be the perfect excuse for a cache. After waiting for a council worker to finish weed eating it was a pretty quick find. I laughed when I found it. Nice one. Thanks. Hatas

What a nice park that we would not have found or probablly stopped at if not for geocaching !!! - nothing + butterfly a nice hide thanks for the cache

Well my wife did i had overlooked it while checking the co-ordinates, which by the way were spot on .
Loved the hide method

Found with Hello Mrs leading me to the location - recent gardening in the area may have stolen the cache, but we were lucky. An awesome cache! Really cool!
TNLNSL

Cheers,
Blarghster.

Our first cache for the day on the way to Kaikoura. A nice little area and first experience with this type of cache.
Well done.
TFTC.

Thrashed round for quite a while. Was in a bit of hurry so wasn't too patient. After reading log entries again I'm not sure I was looking in quite the right place. Will have to have another go at some point.

This one took quite a while, I even moved the cache without realising it! Spent a fair bit of time hunting around and came back to the first spot and there it was. Looks like the gardeners have been through and done a heavy pruning of the area. Thanks.

This was my first cache find!!!! Awesome, I'm gonna have alot of fun, cool little spot, excellent cache!!!!

I was impressed with the container too. It's so good I nearly missed it.
TFTC!

Another tricky one by "Hello Mrs" love the cache box style TFTC

Took us a little while to find but success was sweet.

TFTC.

Found just before dusk. Took a few minutes for the GPSr to settle down and the brain to wake up. Neat container - thanks.

What a nice wee place. First time I've seen a cache container like that. Thanks!

Took me a few moments to realise where the cache was,was the first find of the day.

tricky find

Nice cache, thank you.

1555. Well, with a recuperating husband and a 20 month old grand-daughter who has spent most of the last 2 days at the hospital after dislocating her elbow, we decided that we all needed to get out for a while so of course our ride took us in the direction of unfound caches. We loved this cache - everything about it. Thanks very much.
We took the 2 geocoins.
Thanks
Iris & Rodney

A nice easy find - just on dusk.
Enjoyed this one - TFTC.

Good Find. loved the "container"

Left Two coins, took another.

Found easily on my way home from the north. Nice one - nearly had me fooled. No swaps, thanks and cheers from Grandalf(892)

Why did they build the extra part to the bridge that is over the river; makes no sense. Any way found the cache and had a small chuckle. +geocoin.

Aaaah! I had scoped this reserve for a cache but have been beaten by the faster moving Hello Mrs. Welcome back Hello Mrs, thanks for the cache. Filled in the log whilst seated on the adjacent sun-bathed seating. Very nice spot. Loved the cache. - Symbol on This Geocoin.

On a fleeting visit to ChCh from home-town Nelson. Nice spot. No swaps. Cheers.

FTF! Well i thought this one would of been snatched up well before now. It's almost an impossible task these days to leave a cache a day or so and still expect it to be sitting there unfound. Cache itself is quite nifty. TNLN Cheers!

Dropped by with "In celebration of Geocaching" Symbol on This! Geocoin found appropriately in my 400th cache find.
