Had been told by other cachers and read the logs that this cache is still available - so stopped in on our drive through the Catlins - after walking the track this was an easy find Smile log signed - thanks for the cache and bringing us here Smile
 
18-Oct-20
We were at an event and overheard that this cache was still present so decided to see if we could spot. Thank goodness i try to keep copies of archived caches sometimes gives you ideas or information needed later. Well this one of those times and it wasn't long before we made the find. Log a little damp but hopefully with summer it should all dry out. Thanks for the cache Smile .

I didn't realise this cache was still sitting here when I found the other caches in the area. All sorted today and the cache is in great condition too. TFTC # 15,463

On a whim, I walked up to the other falls to see if this cache was strill here.. and lo and behold, it is! I could even find my own log fro 2012 when I found it the first time..

Should probably be removed as trash though by someone..

 
30-Apr-18
Same as below. We were there, so was the cache so why not? Such a gorgeous part of the country
 
29-Apr-18
Granville mentioned that "there used to be cache there"... sure enough, it is still there and in good condition too. I don't normally go out of my way to find archived caches, but when caching today with a previous finder who knew exactly where it was, why not?
 
18-May-17
Returned this way after checking out the current cache 86ft away at the Matai falls trad in good condition with peeps signing the little woman's dry logbooks. The archived caches' logbook was a little damp but still signable clearly with a pen, we had no trouble. We wrapped the book in some dry tissues and changed the the bags. TFTC

A good last find on this one, and a very nice walk to those twin falls.
Good that we found it just before getting archived.
Strange to drop a fav into an already archived cache, but our notes in the book say "FAV!" and so be it (we really liked the walk that day).

Came down to Dunedin for a weekend to attend mums event, and have a general good ol' family catch up time!

Last day down here, and we headed off early in the hours of the morning to collect a whole bunch of caches that were considered lonely for the next stage of the licence challenges up in Auckland on Rangitoto. Hadn't been asleep since the event that started at 1.59AM, and was pretty caffinated up!!!

Another nice wonder to stretch the legs in the early hours of the morning.

Consec caching day # 692

TFTC!! Smile

We were continuing south on our N Z Mega Event adventure finding a few caches along the way. We had decided that on this trip we would take the scenic route and head toward the Catlins Forest to explore that area further. We found ourselves stopping here to take a short walk to the waterfall and of course to find another cache. With the log quickly signed, we jumped back into the cache mobile and continued our adventure. Thank you for having placed the cache Bitsprayer

You picked a nice spot for this one. Thanks for bringing me to this location.
-----
I visited your cache as part of a week-long self indulgent Geocaching trip from Nelson to Bluff and back again. I apologise for not leaving a completely personalised log, but I do want to thank you for the time, money and effort you put into placing your caches. Without people like you who place caches, there would be nothing for the rest of us to come and find. You are fantastic Big Grin

This cache was found as part of the New Zealand MEGA 2012 Event trip.
