[ Three visits over the past week with CNF, so logged as DNF.......This was a little exposed during the day with a muggle on the house deck. Maybe later?? TFTC ]
Found on day 2 of a 3 day Auckland cache raid with Kiwi Explorer. A more relaxing day all round in which we ONLY found 68 caches. Nicely camo'd as we have come to expect. TFTC, Biggles.
Found with Biggles while caching in the area. Yes where would we be without them? Parks and caches! TFTC
One of 262 finds with Team Y-Cacho's during our 24 hour Auckland cache raid epic.

Out and about with the Y-Cacho's.
New bark has just been laid at GZ and cache was found by pure luck in an unusual place. Put it back where we think it was supposed to go.
Many thanks

We must be starting to think a bit Glyn-ish as we walked right up to this one!

#517 An afternoon 'urban' caching to keep the feet dry and keep the numbers climbing. However this started well and managed to slosh our way to GZ. Cool camo, and am sure this is a lovely spot when its dryer. Also log is pretty much full, found a spot to log our find. SL. TFTC.
Forgot to mention the log book is full, you may want to replace it next time you're in the area
Found this one in the dark on our way to a friend's birthday party. We were a bit early so decided to try and find a couple of local caches to kill some time. GPS was a bit all over the place and the dying batteries in our little torch didn't help... but found it after a couple of minutes, excellent camo as one would expect from the master . TFTC!
found with mondoolix, our 32nd find today. thanks glyn - great little park! tftc
Out with Cabhassett today. Nice little park and great swing. Thought the cache was awesome. TFTC
good hiding. out with Louise 5 today

A quick find, only because I have come across another of Glyns camos like this in Orewa & had a feeling! TFTC
Searched while on the pretext of playing with the dog. GPS all over the place, but after 45 mins (phew) we found it. Very clever. T4TC.
I must admit the clue had me thinking all wrong...until I found the cache, then it was obvious. Thanks.
Nice camo that blends in with the surroundings. Just whar you would expect from a Glyn cache. Enjoyed the plum tree on the way back to the car too! An extra incentive to visit this cache in the next few weeks! Thanks.

wow this place was sure tucked away cool space to match a awesome cache HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just got a GPS, first one found by myself and excited little one, took a little finding. No one else around.
Nice little park, would never have known it was there! Very clever camo, male member of the team found this one!
It does seem a bit random this little park, but it is nice and secluded. Great place for a cache. Nice camo as well, as could be expected from Glyn. Thanks a lot.
Out on mission today with -OGP- and Gadget-tron. The mission was to reach my 1000th cache and GT's 300th cache.
Nice park, great camo.

21st of 37 for our trip to the shore to get KiwiLeon's 1000th find and my 300th find. TFTC
We have visited this park several times, but have always held back because of kids playing nearby. Hit it just on dark tonight with success. TFTC.
Ah there's no one like our Glyn but happily we are either getting better at this or these were earlier 'Glyn' caches. T4TC
USED TO LIVE UP THIS WAY BUT DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS LITTLE PARK -LOST COUNT OF HOW MANY NEW PARKS YOU HAVE TAKEN US TO.GREAT CAMO-TFTC
Short walk and the GPS took us right there. I actually picked it up, checked in the hole and put it back in again, missing it completely. TFTC
No idea. Spent a good 15-20 minutes searching, came up with nothing. Puzzled as to what the clue could mean...

Ended the run here today. Clever camo as always
Thanks Glyn.

Out walking with parents and there dog, convinced them to go past a few caches. Mum used to bring her Brownie pack to this park, as it was close to the Hall at top of Deep Creek rd. Quick find - had a hunch from 5 metres away as to where it might be, guessed right - but great camo. TFTC

didnt see the LOTR cache guardian as it was dark!!
Glyn caches are hard enough to spot in the daytime!! Mrs Geckoh did really well to spot this one. Great camo job again Glyn!!

Almost dark the time we got to this one but we were determined to find it. Another great camo job by the master . Had to return later to find glasses and pen that we lost when logging the find . T4TC.
Clever choice of clue! Initially it led us astray but the GPS soon put us right and then it all made sense. TFTC
this is my first cache with my uncle from scotland the cache was close to were we live.

Easy find , great camo as usual.
Felt suspicious , the locals must wander what the interest in the tree is.

This park is certainly well hidden and one that only the locals knew about until, thatis, until the Camo King decided to hide a cache here.
Another great camo job, Glyn.
Cheers for the cache.

And almost a random cache location. At least until I expanded my search as the GPS was a little off. Fairly quick find one I looked in the right spot. Cheers Gav [2388]

Took longer to find that I would like to admit to, but found it eventually about 12m from where gpsr indicated - yep Clasic Glyn Style!

BTW - Nice foundation blockwork nearby!!

We found the co-ords out too, and only found it after applying Glyn finder logic. Inorganic collection coming up and heaps of people out recycling round the area! TFTC
Flush with the quick (30 mins) success of two other Glyn caches I thought ...........yep I can fit this in before swimming...took longer than expected to get there from Where it all Ends up..... and so after a puzzled (rather than frantic) search for 15 mins headed off for a nautical excursion.

This took a wee while to find. Our co-ords were out by 10+ metres. Found after extending our search zone, while under the constant gaze of the giant guardian. Many thanks for another classic Glyn camo job. What will you come up with next?

GPSr took us straight to a used P pipe, so we almost called the search off, but the cache was quickly spotted in a much more likely location a few meters away, in much the style we are accustomed too from Glyn.

Oh My, clever hide, the old master returns!
Missed the FTF, but its not my turf, so I can handle it,
Thanks glyn, good fun.

Yay! FTF at 8.34am
We know this area well as we used to rent a 2 minute walk away. Had a pleasant leisurely walk to GZ, no one around at this hour.
Took a few moments to locate the cache. Great Glyn camo as usual!
Thanks Glyn for bringing us back here
