I don't know how to do it, but if someone wants to take over the cache they can. I can no longer maintain this cache.
Sorry for the delay in getting this cache back operational. I had constructed a new cache camouflage but when I tried it it needed adjustments. I live 260km from the cache and only come up once a month around the 20th of the month. I will be trying to complete the upgrade by the 20th of April.
The local council has made improvements to the walkway. I will have to change the replacement cache. I apologize for taking so long, I no longer live in Auckland and only visit once a month. Should have it up and running this month if my measurements are correct.
Cache has been removed due to work on the walkway. New Cache will be sited and updated coordinates as soon as possible
Managed to avoid the frisbee golfers in the park on the walk here. Had noticed it had a DNF in January but it was somebody with 0 finds so came along in case they had missed it/didn't understand the hint.
Got to GZ at the end of the handrail and spotted the Vs, checked the second one as per the hint but there was nothing apart from a few leaves, so checked the first one and the third one. Still nothing. Even tried the other end of the boardwalk where the next handrail starts but nothing there (and it is 18m out).
Also checked the spoiler picture from 2017 when we got home and it definitely wasn't there.

Just about to move on an we found it! Have replaced back in the second ‘V’.
The new bridge mentioned as GZ was recently closed for resurfacing (it opened again a few days after we went to level 3) and all the boards were replaced, the cache may have been uncovered while this happened. I walk past it most days, I'll have a look.
I like the idea of exploring the area, even during lockdown. The GC was totally out, open so I'm not too sure where was is supposed to be. I tried to hide it after reading the hint but it still doesn't seem to be very hidden?
Lovely surroundings. Really fun find, the Vs confused us till we spotted it. Thank you e hoa.
Did a day out this way with the old geocaching buddy Michaelteacher, pretty good run of 20 in total with no DNFs.
Bit of teamwork here. I very quickly pointed out what I thought the hint referred to, but didn’t really check thoroughly. Michaelteacher did and there the cache was. Good sized one, think he dropped off a TB. Tftc

Was a quick find with teamwork. I did indeed drop a TB off here. Happy travels!
I happened to go past this cache site while on the way to another. It was refreshing to see such a good sized container in such an urban location - a very nicely chosen hiding place. TFTC, Mistcube.
A day to myself today with a lunch meet up with some mates from back in the old country and some fellow Fantasy football fans, this was happening over near One Tree Hill at 1 PM so I was able to get out and about and find some caches prior, and post this meet up. I headed to Henderson area first for a walk around the Adventure Lab circuit followed by a few in Cornwall Park and then a couple of beers before home. T F T C to all COs.
First up here and some nice artwork/graffiti adorning the area before looking for the cache. For some reason I kept checking the wrong way away from the hint item which consumed a bit of time before adjusting direction and retrieving the container. All good and replaced as found

Nice quick find. Thanks! At last a cache big enough to drop a trinket and trackable into. Many thanks.
Came past on my way to shops
All was fine and it was tucked away in it's little spot.

Sunny morning to stroll to Henderson for a couple of chores - plus a couple of caches on the way. tftc
On our way to a New Year's Party at Karekare, and stopped off here to get this cache. Easily found, and cache in good order. Thought the location was familiar - had attempted this one over 5 years ago, when the cache was awol. Thanks for maintaining this cache for so long.
I'm in the area for a week or so. My son is competing in the Auckland Junior Swimming Champs at the nearby pool on the weekend. We decided to come up a bit earlier and see some relatives... and check out the pool.
I really like finding caches of this size. It sure does make a nice change from all those mint tins I've been getting lately. It gets a FP from me for that fact alone.
The cache is in good condition. All nice and dry.
Thank you

Found with the Henderson Guides. Hint made it a nice easy find. Lots of great treasure. Did some swaps and left a trackable which I think another Guide subsequently picked up.
A nice clever hide, but good hint so no confusion in finding. Decent sized container, so left a TB, cheers
Third find of the day with philbirdboys after a bit of frisbee golf in the park. Tftc.
1st new Zealand cache! Travelling from Newcastle-upon-Tyne UK.
