Thought we would come and have a look just in case it is there, and it was such a nice day to have a look at the views. Coords are certainly well off, and no cache. Shouldn't this be archived if it's not replaced? But thanks for bringing us here. David and Noeline.
Cache has gone, a shame as its a good spot. Perhaps the author could set it up again but be aware the co-ordinates given are way out. Read the clue before you go charging off into the undergrowth 
Robertot took his handy help-mate along who sat on the seat admiring the view, looking at her shiny 'town' boots....while he wandered around inspecting trees with v's. Well 'we' found it!! Reminds me of a little saying, "you can't see the wood for the trees"!!!!!
Nice find just before dawn - went up the road afterwards and watched the Air NZ flight taking off. TFTC.
Nice to see this spot has much improved since the last time I stopped here... less litter & graffiti, and a lovely plaque commemorating one of the Lions who I'm sure helped beautify the lookout. Great views!

Beware of low flying aeroplanes at this picturesque spot. Awesome panoramic views makes it hard to leave this area. TFTC
Found on third attempt with updated co-ords, good fun and great views. One of those so close you almost feel like your sitting on it experiences.
4.30pm. The harbour was a mill pond this afternoon - what a great view. Watched an Air New Zealand plane come in just above our heads. Quick find with the aid of the clue and then off for a coffee at the airport terminal.

Pooked about abit to much here, sorry for the pun 
Mrs Wonder found it in the end, signed the log, and watched 4 small planes cruise over, water was flat as concrete today, thanks for the cache, now to get down to Hamilton for more of yours and your land ladies!
Thanks for the placement dude!

This one has been on our "to find" list for awhile as it is so close to home.
Only found by using the clue as the GPS sent us "over the edge" into the trees and long grass - the co-ords look to be 15-20 meters out. Our Etrex gave S35 46.104 E174 22.264 where we found the cache.

GZ was way off, rather than go over the bank used common sense and found quickly.
Great view, and had the pleasure of a plane landing over the top of me.

Whilst Andrew was in town today we did the northern caches, so after Waimahanga, the natural lead on is Onerahi Lookout. Kids found it easily. Thanks
Nice and easy. Used location and clue rather than gps. I wonder how many people sit there not realising what is under them?! Thanks for the cache.
Mrs Nalawod spotted the clue - well done Pooke, a good hide. Have been passed here many times, and even, last year, said "That would make a good spot to bring people for a caching hunt", so it was good to return to log it. Seem to be following YuGeo4 a bit today. TFTC.

Last one for the day, kids starting to get tired. Our GZ was out by 15m. Managed to find by widening our search zone. Nice views Pooke, thanks for showing us this great spot.
