Didnt find it, rummaged a LOT in the bushes, even near the place the hint suggests but no, nothing

Tftc - short grope in the bush and presto success!!

Found ut after a good little search. Clues definitely help another good one

Thanks

Thanks!

Cache wasn't hidden at all. Put it back a bit more carefully. Thank you.Current goal: day 7 / 100

This one was a real tough one to find but when we looked at the clues we figured it out.

Thanks!

Cheeky

Thank you! Lots of fun finding this one

Early morning find, wasnt too long before something caught my eye.Thanks boxhill

Out and about with Flowerydaze on a lovely Sunday afternoon, tricky little hide but I was soon onto it. TFTC boxhill

What better activity for a lovely sunny Autumn day than to do a bit of geocaching. Talla64 and I came down from Kapiti with a list, and this was on the list. Another area we have never visited, and would not have known it existed if it wasn't for geocaching. Talla did the honours here and said it was a quick find. We retired to the nearby seat to complete the formalities.Thanks for the cache boxhill.

Tftc hard at first the read the hint and got it

Nice hint and thanks to previous logs for the find

While in the area we thought we would grab a cache as we work on DOT days. Nice quite reserve. TFTC.

Tfc, out doing the dragon treasure hunt at the same time.

Good find for the little ones! TFTC.

Thank you for our first cache as a family

We found it but it wasn't in a tree it was with a rock.

Nice walk, great find

New logsheet in plastic bag. Put the cache back where its supposed to be.

Hard to locate, didn't expect it to be in a tree

Found the cache but it was empty, not even a log book anymore. Replaced it by a sheet of paper but the cache probably needs a bit of TLC.TFTC

The log book was missing. I replaced it by a sheet of paper but some extra care is probably required. Cheers

Thanks

#166. Took a bit of search but got there in the end. TFTC

When an immovable object meets an unstoppable cache?
Something along those lines anyway.

Cheers.

Sleepy was here!

Parked at tennis courts then wandered down the track, very quiet so an easy search. Hint led the way. Happily added this to my daily streak challenge tally. Now tucked back in its wee spot. TFTC

Really cool cache! Found it with the help of my son James. TFTC

Easy to find

A quick find to get this year's souvenir. TFTC

Thanks for a fun find in the bush. Roar!

Quick find ! Thanks for bringing us to this great little spot!

Approaching the way we did meant this was a quick find. Tftc

Logbook kept nice and dry! TFTC

Took a few minutes to locate. TFTC a mice reason to visit this park

Lovely little rest with the Lions. Little drizzle while collecting this cache. Tftc

Fairly easy find while dodging the dig walkers. Signed log and replaced where found TFTC.

Quick find. TFTC

Our first geocache! Thanks

Found it after barking up the wrong tree.

Neat wee spot

After being attacked by blackberries and poked in the eye by a branch, I managed to find this Possibly I should have approached from a different angle. Great hint. Thanks for the cache.

Found very easily when using hint!

No luck today

A quick find on a glorious day. A brief encounter with blackberry was a temporary setback! All good in cache, tftc!

Morning ANZAC walk with the kids. Tftc

Couldn't find

First attempt involved a lot of tree ending up in my hand - thistle identification game is not strong. Too many around for a proper rummage. Found it on the second go.

Found but logbook is crumbling to pieces - paper almost too fragile to sign.

Exploring my new suburbian hone with a caching walk. First find in the area, shame that it badly needs maintenance. Tftc!

The logsheet has been replaced

Our first find ever. Rock on!

A little cringe here as a dog walker walked passed while I was in the bushes and made comment.

Nice find - rock on! Log quite damp though
Many thanks

Found with geo granddaughter. TFTC.

We found it yay

I couldn’t find it anywhere we looked in all the trees and bushes and couldn’t find anything but trash

We'll be back to try again

Found on the 2nd attempt

Captain’s log Stardate 2020.5. It is now 49 days since we entered the zone of darkness. We have stopped engines while we seek a defense against the enemy. Tomorrow we can safely encounter Level 2. Let’s go caching again..

The paper was really wet so it was hard to write my name but still seemed to write my name down. Did this hunt with JezzaDaCoder.
Thanks

Nice area haven’t been around this way before. The paper is slightly damp but you can still write on it. Thanks FTC

Thank you. Our first one found!

Found after a nice lunch at the local cafe. TFTC

Thanks for the find. Beautiful scenery nearby

So cool love the pixie dust

#943. After watching grandson Seb play football at the nearby ground, had time to seek out another few caches for the 35 needed for the MatM. Never knew this bit of bush was here, and enjoyed the walk down to find this and one other cache. Got the Lions hint when I sat down to log the find. Haha! Went to see Lion King movie last night, so very appropriate!

Tftc boxhill. Nice one.

Quick find where all good at GZ. Thanks for another smilie.

Quick easy find using the helpful hint, TFTC

Yay we found it

Quick easy find for our 2nd cache! Nicely camouflaged though, good spot.

Found

Sort of hard to find but we found it in the end

OMG! We actually found it! I've been trying to find this one for years.

Tricky find but really fun.

Cute spot! Well hidden for a great find. Thank you

Pretty easy find!! It’s down low

My second time finding this cache. Back in Wellington for a couple of days so I thought I'd better visit a couple of TB's. TFTC.

Green screw top plastic container- tough to find

Cheers

So frustrating....have never been able to find this one

Pre Mega maintenance check. Replaced logsheet added pencil.

Mr 7 spotted quickly. The log is soaking wet after the rain so paper all soggy. Managed to write my name just. May need a fresh paper.

Found it thank you

In the area again for a quick find thanks to the hint. As previously mentioned the log paper is like tissue and about to crumble away to dust. TFTC

Wandering through Lakewood Reserve, picking up the caches I haven't found yet. A quick find, and although the logsheet is a bit delicate I was still able to sign it. Unfortunately didn't have a spare replacement on me so couldn't drop that off. TFTC

Log book needs replacing. All wet and soggy

Found this one In 2014 but did not log

Found after about 10 minutes of searching this afternoon. Tftc

Another nice green area in CP Log a bit damp but 5 min in the sun and all fixed TFTC
