the cache by the road by the lake (Auckland) Vauxhall, North Island, New Zealand
By Frarped and Bumble B on 24-Jan-09. Waypoint GC1M1EE

No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Anything happening?

Disabled.

Found it approx 17 instead of 9m left. Completely swimming in water - a microwave take away food tray is no suitable cache box. See picture. Did not even try to log

Another reason for me to come back here. No luck today...

It was late in the evening and we may have missed something. But today we were not able to find this, unfortunately. Maybe it fell down on the sidewalk and was picked up by a pedestrian?

Quick find here thanks to a very good hint. Cache completely waterlogged and log book unsignable. Only just able to scrawl our name onto the logbook. TFTC.

Cache waterlogged and logbook soaking.

Found it. Completely waterlogged though, so couldn't sign book.

Last cache for us today. We enjoyed the sunset when returning home. The log was too wet to sign. Definitely needs maintenance. TFTC

Too Wet to sign..

Fairly easy find. Not where we thought it would be. Contents very wet.

Easy find. Container had quite a bit of water in and log book was damp.
TFTH

GPS was pointing to other side of the road; when crossed it - again showing back.. As there were too many places to hide, and it was a busy traffic, I let this one a DNF.

Thanks for the cache!

Found in the end a bit more down the road. NO TB's in the cache.

Needs new lid as old out broken.

Quick find, TFTC!

Had a look but no luck. Will need to try again.

Found with Team Y-cacho's
TFTC

The Freezer Mice strike again!!!
Out for a quick mid week caching excursion with rest of the Y-cach-o's.
TNLN, TFTC.

The hint was useful, although it still took our team from The Tron a little while to grab this one under the cover of darkness

My standard meter paces let us down tonight. Frarped must be a giant
Many thanks

Auckland night out for some the Y-Cacho’s boys

Quick find by team Y-cacho on a Devonport tour for the evening.

Found with Team Y-cacho's

Found with clue in batteries no TB in cache

Searched, searched again, and searched some more. On our DNF list for now.

Not too much hunting before I found. No sign of the geocoin supposed to be here!! [:(!] TFTC

It is a bit tricky on sunny days TNLNSL TFTC

Did a lot of pacing and looking. With traffic rushing by I was emboldened and searched shamelessly. Alas, no luck. My Kiwi friend still shakes her head... Crazy USA woman.

Cache had a little water in it and log was rather damp.
Recommend a new cache container and log.

Found by Mrs CDM261
Tricky location due to the muggles (traffic)

TFTC

Tough find when trying to look inconspicuous due to constantly passing traffic.
Mrs CDM261 found this one when all were about to abandon the search.
TN but left a signature eraser. TFTC.

Found this one not quite where the hint puts it. Cache was full of water, container has a crack in it. No sign of any trackables in there though.

TNLNSL TFTC

As with Feathertop we couldn't locate this cache today.
Thanks, Robmc.

Didn't find this one

Stuck my head in a few bushes between cars. I like the minimalist camo
TB out, there was only one in here... TFTC

interesting searching whilst trying to appear not ot be doing anything out of the ordinary.

This was a quick find thanks to the clue! TNLN

The GPS took us to the middle of the intersection, we used the hint and bingo.
No traveler in cache
TNLNSL cheers

1.05pm. Must admit to feeling exposed here and resorted to sitting on the ledge alongside the footpath from time to time as muggles passed. Thought the location at GZ was a generous rendation of the hint and also a little away from the indication the GPS was giving us today. However we found it and that was the main thing. Then as we started back to the car a shower set in.
Added a wooden fish & took a Lego man.

found with yo mum - our 10th of 20 for the day. took us a while, since the gps seemed a bit hesitant at first! but easy enough with the clue thanks!! #199

good stuff fraped

(2:20:42 PM/fwgb) A quick find after waiting for a clear spot between the Muggles out with their children. TFTC!

Took me a while, GPS was pointing to the middle of the road.

2.00pm Easy when all the traffic isn't worried about what your doing.
No sign of listed TB's

Fist cache of the morning. Thanks.

Took a while to find in the dark.

A quick dash across the road and find. TNLN SL 1430hr TFTC

Very sneaky!

No 13 for the day. Got to the sign and quickly had the cache in hand. TFTC TNLNSL

Lunch over and onto another cache - quick find (it took longer to wait for the lights as had to park opposite and use ped x-ing). Busy road, but who's looking long enough to see what you are doing? TFTC

#45 of 77
Nice easy find on a very busy road.
Bit further along than the hint led us to believe.

on to GC1G7AK

Out with Glyn and BackPAQer today to see how many caches three guys can find powered only by Wild Bean Cafe coffee and ham rolls. The weather was wet but the spirits were high.

Didn't see any lake here. But added a zip loc bag for the log book.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

Thanks for the cache, can't comment much, on a *Mission* today!

Co-ords had me across the road in the little park. P.A.F. put me right.

36.49.390 174 47.860 worked better.

Took Car Geocoin.

Thanks for the hunt.

FIRST FIND WAS A GOLF BALL-RATHER OFF TRACK !!!CACHE CAME NEXT-TFTC

This is a very busy road at 1030 on a Saturday morning. Just had a sitdown and a fumble in the greenery.

In:TB

Cheers for the cache.

Found with Yeetrees on our big Auckland cache raid weekend.
Crossed the road to cross this one off.

Spent more time trying to get across the road than finding the cache, TFTC TNLNSL (946)

GPSr took a while to settle, but clues are good.
T4TC - M@

Quick hunt and find whilst cars were whizzing past. Coords seemed a bit out. Cheers Gav [3932]

Nice easy find while out cleaning up the caches in Devonport. TFTC

This cache needs a "Geocache" label and a stash note. Currently looks like a piece of discarded takeaway rubbish. Regret, due to the flimsy nature of the container, it will not weather well. My be cleaned up by gardeners.

Rummaged through the gardens a little and decided we might need Chinese for lunch. LOL

Hidden well enough. This might get wet over time.

Out with OG Phatazz for a Geo run over the North Shore. We had a driver booked for today but he decided to stay at home (he must be made of brown sugar , NoWonderStuff ).

Drove past this one a couple of times. Pretty exposed location. Today (in the rain), nobody around.
Quick find.
TFTC #805

Spent too much time looking for this cache in the garden / seat area - perfect spot for a cache! - but could not get closer than 8m....
Read the hint, then realised we were on the wrong side of the road.
Found a soft plastic container with no stash note, but a log.... signed it as we found familiar names there.

Nice straight forward cache. T4TC

I've been ignoring this one for too long now, seemed like a pointless silly hide. Maybe the fog today made me feel invisible.

TFTC

we're still pretty new at this & our co-ord's had us crossing back & forth over this busy road. Found using the hint. Nice log book. Didn't make a trade.

Easy find even with the volume of traffic passing today. TFTC

Quick find while in the area this morning TNLNSNT4TC.

Last one of the day. TFTC

Got this as darkness overtook us...TFTC

TFTC! Left a plastic frog!

Quick find on an average caching day!!

TFTC!!! Took Strawberry shortcake doll as otherwise the lid wouldnt close.

I'm not sure how durable this container will be in 12 months time, but thanks for the Cache!!

Found on an eats auckland caching mission.

Cool. Nice one.

Quick find, Left CC and Hand bead. TFTC

Caching with Indiana Jill and Kayaknkiwi. I used to live just down the street and around the corner from here. Not too many cars going past on a Sunday afternoon. TNLN. TFTC!

We pass by here all the time! Caching with SB & KnK. Not too much muggle trouble today.

Off caching with Indiana Jill and Seattle's Best this afternoon. No problems near GZ. Thanks for bringing us here! TFTC!

Nice easy find. Located cache, then waited for a break in traffic to retrieve, log and return. TFTC, Biggles.

Ist find of the day oldest daughter found it nice easy find but lots of muggles driving past.

TFTC

In - Marbles.

With a fair bit of traffic it is hard not to look suspicious, but not too much of a problem.. Thanks a lot!

Took a while to find. Not the most comfortable cache to hunt down as there were quite a few cars passing close by. Nice logbook. It put a smile on our face. TFTC.
