Hi all,

As I haven't been into Geocaching for a while and I am no longer in a position to maintain this cache I am archiving it.

I hope this place has been of interest to the people who visited it. It has been great hearing and seeing your experiences.

Cache will be removed in due corse.

Thanks,

Seeker 01

We did a bike ride from Lake Hawea back to Wanaka. A local company dropped us off at the start point with bikes, helmets, maps and instructions. It was a great day. Beautiful views and weather. Yes this is an awesome place. The water is so clear. TFTC.

We had the great chance to travel around New Zealand during six weeks and were able to see wonderful cities, landscapes and meet nice Kiwis. While staying in NZ many cache owners gave us the opportunity to search for very well hidden treasures and we thank them very much for preparing and maintaining them.
Greetings from Swiss geocachers

A quick find. I then realised that I had left my bike helmet in the car over on the other side of the river so I had to go over and retrieve it before setting off.
