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.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 21 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

A couple of DNF's and and a CO not online for a year?!

No luck, appears recent planting in the area may have led to cache going AWOL.

Hmmm. Spent a bit of time on this one but it managed to elude us.

No Luck today.

Just like the previous cache, the GPS was a bit confused and we were too.

Just happened upon this cache by accident. What are the odds???

nice spot and great cammo, TFTC

#159, Daughter 1 1/2 in backpack's first find. She pointed laughing. I think she liked the cammo. TFTC

Sweet camo. Tftc

Found it TFTC

Nice easy find TFTC

Couldn't find this and gave up as it started to rain. Will try again soon.

easy find
good camo

Big clean up on one side of the path and heaps of aggies on the other side. Could not see it.

Fantastic place. Thanks for bringing us here!

Found it with the kids - wonderful thank you

after a lot of searching we found it
a good hide and camo
took TB

[A fairly quick find, more by luck then skill. Fantastic camo.] You could almost say it is hidden in plain view.

Nice camo, found fairly quickly for myself... More luck than anything

My apologies for the LONG! absence from Geocaching. It is with regret that some of our caches have gone, but I hope to be able to review, update, restore, replace those that remain in the coming weeks. I would like to thank all that have helped maintain some of our caches in the true spirit of Geocaching, and extended thanks to those that have offered help in replacing those missing.

Out east today, caching in the rain! Super quick and easy find today. Which is, actually, really surprising as the cache is completly camoed from view. It was only bang on co-ordinates that got me in the right spot and the fact that I recognised some of the camo as camo, that made this easy. I can certainly understand why some have struggled to find this one in the past. Could even justify a bump in difficulty. Dropped of a TB. Cheers for another great cache!

Yey after 3 unsuccessful tries we PAF'd and although we managed to find it quite quickly we were amazed at how well hidden it was. So happy to able to tick this one off at last. TFTC

Ok, so I have logged one DNF, but I have in fact had more than that.......today I was inspired by the recent find on 14th November and yippeee I found it. Very good cache, thanks very much.

Awesome cache, love the plant work TFTC.

Very cool cache

Appears that the foliage on the side of the walkway has been trimmed right back. Thus perhaps this one has been muggled.
Would be great if this one could be checked to see if its still in its intended location.

Grrrr! GPS said that we were right on top of it, but neither kid nor adult could find it! Will be back to try again......

Foiled again by another WackyB cache. Spent a while looking but high levels of muggle activity and a complete lack of any idea of what or where it could be meant we walked away

Boo, no find for me.

Ta for this great cache. Always have a laugh when we find caches like this one. Loved it.

Very cute! We enjoyed finding this one. Happy to say that cache is still there, safe and sound. Surprised to see that it's been 6 months since the last person found it. The waves further down the track were quite impressive, crashing onto the sides. Thanks WackyB for bringing us here and for the cache.

No luck for me, gave it a good try.

sadly DNF as it sounded like a good find
for youngins, will come back to it

had really good look around for this one but still couldn't find it

Nice, very nice, really enjoyed finding this one.

Found as part of my three week caching trip from Wellington to Auckland - # 894. Thanks.

DNF

Nice location and relatively easy find but I could have just got lucky! Thanks WackyB. TNLN.

A very enjoyable cache. Great camo and a nice convenient seat to fill in the log and admire the view.

A 1 litre cache and we couldn't find it!!! How embarassing. What do you expect from a couple of Nelsonians. Loved your caches though just not the ones we couldn't find. Thanks for all the fun.

Definitely up the garden path on this one.

Great views and hide, TFTC

Quick and easy find between dog walkers, joggers etc. Great effort on putting this camo and cache together. It is appreciated. Thanks.

Cute little walkway, very cool cache! Had a good chuckle and appreciate the effort made here...thankyou!

on to GC1R4AH

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.

Cool Wacky B cache enjoyed this one. Reminded me of your other Island Cache.

Thanks for placing and maintaining this cache.

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

There were a few muggles coming past at frequent intervals. Love the container.

In: TB

Cheers for the cache.

This cache is certainly one that lives up to the owner's name! Took us way longer than it should have to find it. Perseverance paid off. Thanks for the giggle and showing us this nice spot.

Very cute container . T4TC - M@

Yahoo finally, lost track of what attempt it was. The cache has had a close shave as the Councils workers have been down and done a slash and bash. Love the camo. Now the easy one is out of the way we will unfortunately have to get back to FIFO. Forgot the goody bag so took out nothing and put in a pink peg found nearby.

Poked around the bushes for 10-15 mins with out much luck, will re visit.

after 2 DNF logs we popped along to check it out... all is well in no man land as with the cache
thanks to all for the care and consideration shown when repositioning

Found two multi caches today but couldn't find this single supposedly easy one. Obviously looking too hard as well as trying to avoid the beach goings

Loved the container.
TFTC

Had to do a stealth bit as there were a couple of muggle kids on the shore.. I don't know if they noticed the appearing/disappearing box. Signed logbook well away from the cache site, so as not to draw attention to it.

Nice beach, makes me long for summer, so I can go sailing again.

Found by Bud while bunking gym for 2nd weekend in a row. Took kids to find the cache later same day. Left keyring took geo-coin. TFTC SL

Have tried to locate this one before with no luck. Brought in reinforcments - 90CRX & Cosmic Cowgirl, today & the cache was soon in hand. Have no idea why I didn't see it last time! Thanks for the challenge & the vist to a beautiful spot.

Dropped off The Viking Slug to continue its journey.

Had to reset the gps to find GZ. Found GZ bit still hade to have a good look to find cache. Nice hide and camo. TFTC

Sixth of our 25 finds today during our visit to the area. Quick & easy find and a real treat to find something so different T4TC.

#738 (6/8 on an East AKL trip). Found with brother Spud and three junior Spuds. Started off looking in the wrong place. Trawled up and down the right general area, before eventually spotting something. Loved the cam. TFTC.

12.15pm. Looked a good place to look and gradually a great camo job was uncovered. Quite some work has gone into this one. Must admit to feeling a bit silly carrying it along the path to a seat in the sun to investigate the contents. Nice bit of coastal walkway along this area.
+ two hair ties & a white rat;

12.15pm. What a crack up, we found the cache after about 2 minutes.
We were all having a bit of a giggle and then remembered that there were some muggles close by.
Moved a little way from GZ to sign the log.
Another great cache, well done WackyB.
+ domino

Cheers M+S [:O)] (1259)

Rained almost all the way out here, but by the time we stopped the car sunshine again. Didn't like the initial look of the GZ, lots of wet folliage, but cache soon in hand and as so often with a Wacky B cache a big smile on our faces.

Nicely done… We now see how the cache got its name… Enjoyed the nice views afterwards. Many thanks for the fun.

[blue][font=Georgia]This one took me longer than it should of - a few passing muggles spooked me on a couple of occasions.

Way cool container.

Thanks for the cool spot.

Out for a driving lesson with GC, Hows that for extreme caching.

Took a bit of finding, but GC was soon saying TaDaa!

Cool Cache TNLN TFTC

Had to wait out a few muggles with dogs.
Nice container. Took a bit of search.
Took TB
TFTC #626

Tore out of here when uploading my GSAK query after realizing there was somthing new and close!

Ran into Tramper Ted and Mrs Tramper Ted who were allready on the case. Ted said call it a conjoint first to find and I am happy to accept even though his eyes turned out better than mine today.

Beautiful container too. Grabbed the Nomad Geocoin.

I shared my co-ordinates for One, two, tree which TT didn't have and agreed to meet them there.

Keep it up WackyB. I had almost found all your caches. Stay on your toes for my second hide shortly.

FTF with OG (nice to meet you). We were hunting about when he turned up - not a muggle but a cacher, yay! What a cool little bay, good spot for a cache - and what a cunning hide! TFTC

Good, you're back in business.
Thanks.
