Drop Zone. (Central Plateau) Rainbow Point, North Island, New Zealand

We had another long look but the cache is nowhere to be seen. Can't understand why it would go missing after being safely hidden here all this time with so many visitors. Perhaps someone wasn't being stealthy. Not going to replace it. Archived.

Seems to be missing. Not where it should be. Disabled until we fix it.

We had a look for this in the most obvious spot but couldn't find it. We went on & found another near by cache & decided to return for a second look.
This was just too clever for us today or maybe it has gone missing.
Thanks anyway Punga and Paua

Dropped by to leave 2 travel bugs in the cache, Mr Froggy and JJ The Cat.

Came to pick up two travel bugs for a grandkids school hols geo caching trip. Ty

Great cache, hopefully will be returning one day to do a jump.
TFTC!

Ooops. Who put that rock on the dz

Thank you for this cache. Years ago I did a skydiving trip to this place and saw the pink plane again, memories memories.
Easy find and was expecting something else after a free fall from the sky.

Tänään ollaan nähty monta kaunista paikkaa ja kivoja kätköjä. Mukava ja helppo löytö. Käytiin samalla ihailemassa laskuvarjo hyppääjiä ja lentokoneita. TFTC Greetings from Finland.

Thanks

My mega NZ MEGA 2013 Trip!! Split into two halves - first, the journey up, and then the second half was the actual MEGA time.

This was the first half. I ended up deciding that the best way to travel up for the MEGA was by doing a rental relocation. Jucy had FAR too many cars in Chch that needed going to Auckland, and so with the pick of the crop I went for the 4WD... naturally, being a cacher, I knew this would come in handy!
They paid the vehicle on the ferry, paid the insurance, and gave me a free tank of gas as well as 5 days to get up to Auckland! What more could you want?!!
This was my 210th cache of the trip.

Sorry about the mostly copied logs - but otherwise I would still be logging till Christmas - and that's Christmas 2014 I mean! Haha.

A pretty empty spot when I came by - just before my dinner stop!

TFTC!!

Quick find by Abbsters, together with a friend who was keen to give geocaching a try. Placed Green Jeep Travel Bug.

nice easy find, tftc

Found yesterday:-)))
TFTC

Quick find today at airport.

Watched the tandem skydivers coming down - there were lots today, so everyone was busy watching them and not me while I swoop in and got the cache. Been down to Taupo for the weekend visiting the Sika Show and getting a few caches on the way home. TFTC

Quick find while waiting for fish & chips. Busy time at the fishbox. Thanks for the cache.

We made this find more difficult by not looking in the obvious first. TFTC.

Awesome spot

Easy find with the weather improving dropped off Mega Geocoin

TFTC!!!

Easy find. Awesome watching sky divers.

Dropped off TB: Log My Dog Piper.

Very quick find on way to take kids to Action World - TFTC - makes the holidays more interesting when you can introduce someone to geocaching and trapeze all in one day!

On tour around Rotorua and Taupo with family from Boston. Introducing to geocaching and our scenic areas. Kiwi turned US found this one. Getting the hang of it now.

Thanks Punga and Paua.

Becsicasa and I decided to do a bit of a caching mission well outside of our area. We left Hamilton early Friday morning and hit the road, Destination: Wellington
Quickly found, although I think the car drew some looks from people in the nearby buildings. Glad the cache survived the fall, because there's no way in hell I'd try the nearby activity...
TFTC!

3 day weekend? I like the sound of that! What's even better? 3 DAYS OF CACHING!!!
Destination sorted (to Wellington and back again), the bags are packed, the travel bugs are ready to travel and the GPSr is ready to show us the way.

I'd love to come back here one day and take part in this awesome activity. Nice little hide.


#12 for the day, 64 total for the weekend with a total of 1250 kms.
