The new railing means I can't re-hide the cache here so I will free this area for someone else to place a cahce

Due to bridge maintenance over the next few months this cache has been removed. I will eplace it once the work has been completed.

Great view. Needs maintenance bridge works due to start which will remove walkways

Have replaced logbook, and tin. Last of old one was, ah, seen spinning off into space... long story short, it's worth *looking* for cache instead of *feeling* for cache. Cheers from Team Bearsleys. Grateful for a nearby hardware shop a minutes drive away!

19th for today, wow so high, the lad found it, Tftc.

Great views
Thanks

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

This one was not on the PQ, but due to Smartphone and cgeo still made. Fast found. Great view from there. TFTC

We found a geo coin!

I found it!

Nice view.

Logged as RAD together with renelm and aedk.

Very fast find with a great view

Leaving Cambridge today for a camp closer to Auckland.

Found at 10:53 - #4682 - together with aedk and Difool - logged as RAD to save space and time

Found with renelm and Difool, logged as RAD to save log space, time and trees.

I am not much of a logwriter, so see renelms, and possibly Difools, log for details.

TFTC!

Was there several times, couldn't find it...

Can't go searching so much here! So easy find

I just collected the cache when a guy screamed at me "don't jump". hmm no plan to do that, to many caches still out there to collect TFTC

Really cool find. My favourite so far.

Nice quick grab before nearby muggles see!
My phone's compass pointed off the bridge lol!
TFTC

Cool spot wouldn't want to drop anything over

Hard to take out on a busy Saturday morning.

Took a unicycle ride down to check on this cache. It was missing!
Had taken a replacement in my pocket, so good to go.
Added a marriage TB, hopefully to be picked up by the owner.

A quick find on a sunny afternoon bike ride through Cambridge. Absolutely brilliant view of the Waikato. On a personal note, looking for this cache led me past the Cornish Pasty Shop, where I met someone from my hometown! If you haven't ever tried one, there's nothing better than a proper Cornish pasty made by a proper Cornishman. T4TC

Scary height. I zipped everything I owned up for fear of seeing it disappear into the tide. Thanks to the hint we could stealthily find and retrieve as there was lots of vehicles and foot traffic. The lid to the container has disappeared and I had horrible visions of the log floating out to sea. VERY CAREFULLY replaced. TFTC

Pleasant stroll and a nice easy find. Owner please note, the log book is almost full and the lid off the container is missing.

Whilst in the area, decided to grab this cache. Was unable to find on first attempt, but with some guidance from the owner, found instantly. Great views up and down the river, was a shame that it was overcast today. TFTC

Nice easy clue to find it, and we too did not drop anything. Thanks for the cache and the views.

We didn't drop it ! Cool easy find on interesting bridge !

Nice find and view on way south.
Took a steady hand. TFTC

We walk here frequently and took about 5 visits before JrCacher miss 8 found it. Log book is nearly full.

Nice little find,

Nice easy find, with great views of the river.

Don't drop the cache

Once GPS chirped it went inside my top. Nice to partially walk across and not look suspicious. TFTC

Found orginally as part of phasevisitor team, now created own account, re-logging as yorkshirekiwi83.

We spent the weekend down in Cambridge and collected a few caches in between other activities. After going on a kayak trip to see the glow worm canyon off Lake Karapiro, we returned to Cambridge for dinner and then drove around picking up a few easy drive-by caches at night. A nice quick find with no one else on the bridge. Thanks for the cache!

TFTC

Quite high up. Tftc

Found it with Bridgeaway??TFTC

A quick grab on our way north. TNLNSL TFTC

Woo-hoo! Cache #600 for me! And I couldn't have picked a more scary one! I've driven over the bridge many times, but never walked it before, and don't plan on walking it ever again! Container is pretty rusty, lid has snapped off hinge, but logbook dry. TFTC and for scaring me!

Was being very careful with this one when signing - log - unfortunately I didn't have my pen with me so scrathed my name in as best I could. TFTC

This one had us searching for a little while.TFTC

bit freaky, one of the party opted to wait off to the side, but we made a quick find, didn't drop anything, and got out of there! TFTC

Found on my walk around Cambridge caching this morning. Nice and dry log.

Really windy today, had to watch the hats too because we would have never got them back

Great views of the river from here. TFTC

DWP Retrieving lost info

Nice view, first find with just me and mum.

Easy to find

nice hide

Drove a friend to Hamilton so she could buy a car. Caching on the way home to Rotorua.

Had this one earmarked for today. Parked in the little side street and walked out. Surprised a fat pigeon roosting below. Nice view overlooking the Waikato. TFTC.

Took longer to find than it should have as we originally searched on the wrong side, guess we should have read the clue [xx(]. TFTC

Neat hiding place. Cache container in poor condition. Needs replacing soon.

Our first one on a fine nearly spring day in Cambridge. Couldn't find first time round, so did other locals, then read the clue and returned. In caterpillar and 5cent coin, out grape wine glass marker.

Parked and walked for this once across a very high bridge teaming with muggles waking, on bikes and in cars. Was able to easily retrieve the cache and sign the log, TNTN, TFTC, Great river!

An enjoyable stroll over the bridge on a cool (but sunny) winter's morning. A nice view of the river from here; TFTC.

Found it quickly but then had to return it and exit to make room for a mobility scooter , soon retrieved it again and signed log

TFTC

love the bush on the river bank

A little traffic about, easy find in a good spot.

11:30 PM. Just came back from the All Blacks vs Ireland game in Hamilton and staying in a motel for the night. Took the dog for a short walk as she's spent most of the afternoon and all evening in the car. Quick find once I was on the right side. It was funny to see the dog squat low and try and leave the place ASAP: she hates bridges! TFTC

peak hr cruised it easily TFTC

what a nice and easy cache

Nice Hide Thanks

Tftc

Found this one nearly a year ago before I was a Cacher with "The Casserly Family" Found again now I am an offically hooked Gecacher. TFTC

Great location. Nice view. Kelly especially liked the local spiders. As always, Andy was tough enough to fight them off! TFTC.

Quick find on our way home today. TFTC

This was hard. Did use 30 minutes to spot it. First cache I ever found. just started looking 2 weeks earlier:-)

14:00
Wet wet wet and windy ... but we did it!
TFNC

Nice easy find today. This would have to be the oldest looking cache of this type I've ever seen

Lots of muggle traffic about but not many walking - we admired the great views of the river TFTC

Nice easy find. TFTC

Tin a bit rusty. Good location.

OMG thats a long way down! TFTC

GPS was jumpy today but nice and straight forward with the hint. Nice hide. tftc

Lived in Cambridge for 6 years and never walked the bridge... first time today. Nice hide. Thanks

sweet as , nice veiw dont drop it. lol

SO COOL! Its amazing to find something like that at a place you walk past all the time! went under bridge at first... but we found it in the end! great job.

A quick find on the way to Auckland.A great spot for a cache and the views of the river were neat. Thanks for the stop.

TFTH. Went with Joshtait and a mate to introduce him to the game

TFTC we were searching around on the path for a bit before realising it was (somewhere else)

Easy find and interesting view of the major work going on under the bridge to stabilize the bank.

Wandered down here after lunch at Scott's Cafe in Leamington (great coffee) and tried not to look suspicious while we were locating the GC. Found it after a couple of minutes & signed log. TFTC

Find #850. The 17th cache, and the last in Cambridge - we really needed to get back on the highway to head back to Wellington, since it was already midday!

We arrived at this cache on foot, coming from the track in Lola Silcock Park behind the library. Reading the past logs, we wandered onto the bridge instead of trying to look under it. LOTS and LOTS of traffic. Very hard not to look suspicious, so it was really more of a feel-your-way to the cache. We got it eventually. A really fantastic old structure. Great views. SL TFTC.

Hmmm, Helps to read directions properly, Because, it wasn't on the supports, When I thought it was, Pointless and long trek back and forth between the supports, Just to realize, I should look on TOP of the bridge! TFTC

went under instead of over untill I got thinking cap on and looked at other logs Great view TFTC

A quick find during a brief cache hunt in the area while driving back to Wellington. Really nice old bridge! Signed log, TFTC.

Made sure that I did not drop anything

Good clue made it quick & easy. Thankyou

Easy, but wet find. Watch out for cars splashing through puddles!

Tftc

Had so many DNF`s in Cambridge, I decided to end it all and jump off the nearest bridge. As I was about to I stumbled upon this cache, thusly restoring my faith and convincing me to keep caching. Thanks geo-caching, another life saved.

nice quick find with bonus of great views, TFTC
