Found but unable to write in log now- cache contains too much water- no point in us drying it out. Have taken photo for proof if CO wants it.

See last few logs- very wet.

Time to archive.

Found it but might need re done. Inside of container wet and soggy including log. Couldn't record as too wet.

Found it Miss 9's first cache!

Visible from a short distance - think it must have been shifted from original home, in a bit of a state, log was damp and hard to write on. May need the CO to come and take a look at it.

Nice and easy find. Log book a bit damp and falling apart.

Found it. Nice easy find.

Quick easy find. Log book a bit damp

Another quick find! TFTC!

Spent about 20 mins on this one before discovering. No need to venture too far into bush

good hide tftc

TFTC

Nice easy find on the way home from work

Found at night by torch light. Nice hide. TFTC

lovely wet day. . not. . .quite dry up track. . log damp. . tftc

After attending the nearby schools open night we decided to have a go at finding this cache. With a torch that was rather pathetic, we relied more on the hint while searching. I think luck was on our side because we found the cache pretty quickly. Woohoo that's 14 caches so far for the month, a perfect record. TFTC.

No luck today!

I can say it is being good, still at home. TFTC

4791. Decided to spend a couple of extra days in Dunedin after the Mega Event. This was day two and the ninth cache find of the day. It was obvious where the location would be as we approached the area, having been there before a long time ago when the container was in a slightly different spot at GZ. This time we were successful and the cache was quickly found and log signed without causing any further damage to the flora. Thanks for the cache, Rodney and Iris.

Finally getting around to logging... On the way back home from the MEGA. Thanks.

We saw some other cachers coming off the track as we were going in.

While heading home from the Mega.

On the way back north from Mega with Kiwi Legend. KL was driver and cache selector. We had a great day caching, me using my new gps. Occasionally I was able to find the cache first and this was one of the ones I found. Nice hide. Thanks for the cache.

starting to get wet again doing a few extras on the way back to the mega

Nice cammo! Caching after the Mega. TFTH!!

A quick find in a quiet park.

The return journey home to Christchurch with Kiwi Moose after the NZMEGA in Dunedin. Thanks for hide.

Homeward bound with Karma Reprint from the MEGA. A short walk up the hill and a bit of a hunt around. TNLN Thanks.

Out for our last day in Dunedin. The Mega over, many teams returning home.

Picking up a few caches on a drive from Dunedine to Timaru.
TFTC Happy Cachin!!!!

NZ12. Out caching with Dazzatron today. This one took ages as there were so many spots and the GPS was all over the place. In the end it was in a reasonably accessible spot, even through we had been drawn further up. Thanks.

Found with pprass and Juddda. We are now all jambed into the one geowagon today, all together and this was one of many finds for the day.
Cheers from Browngang

Quickly located on our way to the CITO.

Found at 8:04 AM GAFF5 in the company of Browngang and Juddda. We made it a lot more difficult than we needed to. Found a lot closer to the path than we first thought.
Thanks us04

Another of the finds we made as we criss crossed across Dunedin.

TFTC

nice and easy ty

A bit slippery near GZ and had to wait for a muggle to pass, but a quick find after that.
TFTC.

EZ. TFTC

Today it was just Sully1 and I to grab a few caches and learn and see a bit more of this beautiful town.
Despite the forecast, the weather held up once again, and we had a great day finding some clever and simple hides, but all were a joy to find.
Thanks for this one us04, nice walk and hide

Found with bogonghazy whilst in town for the Mega Event. We had a great few days caching around Dunedin, and the weather was perfect, even though some places were quite muddy underfoot. My Thanks to the CO for the placement of this cache, and for bringing us here today.

Looked first in the obvious spot but found in the not so obvious one. TFTC #4015

The weather has remained stable and is quite warm compared to yesterday. This took a while and the neighbour was quite curious as to what was going on. The Chief did stand out a little bit with his tie dyed trackable shirt on! TFTC

We are out for the day with the Earthbound's whilst on our NZ Mega Trip. Nana in the nearby house watched us suspiciously sitting in the cars whilst occasionally casting a glance towards the boys and then she moved to the back balcony to continue her neighborhood watch vigil. Luckily the cache cant be seen from her house. Cache was easily located, logbook signed and cache replaced. TFTCy

Geodad found this one while Geomum & Geokid picked up rubbish for the mega

Found with troobloo and Bushbaby321 while at the NZ MEGA. SL TN Left some PT's along the way. T4TC

Not the best place to look in pouring rain, but hey hey we're cachers!

Back and forth across the town we went getting caches along the way. A nice quick find with Coruze and Bushbaby321.

This too a while. too long really. What's annoying was this was the very first place I looked!

Parked safely just off the footpath on the grass. Walked a short distance along track and saw where GPSr was indicating GZ. Found it straight away. Not far from the path and there is a marker on the correct fern. This area is fragile and with the Mega event we as cachers need to help protect this type of ecosystem. So this one s still at home. TFTC

Found with renelm. TFTC

We thought this cache had left home, but it was just hiding. Found according to clue on the 2nd runver of the area.

Found at 13:21 - #2807 - with Alexesmann

TFTC

No it is still at home.
Picked up T.B.

Spent a lot of time on a sunny Sunday with few distractions but I could not find it. Thinking like a hider, there was an obvious spot given the hint, but all I found was dirt. [?]

Quick find, no one about today.

Never knew this path was here. No one about on a quiet winters day.
Found with Aoraki Sheep.

Nice easy find
Found with debsnz

A nice retreat from the busy clty traffic. Damp surrounds but log and access ok.

Log was too wet to sign, please replace. Cheers

15 of 21 today out caching with ingidayna. A quick easy find once in right spot unfortunately couldn't sign log as it was too wet. TFTC

11 of 14 today. lucky way to spend mothers day with wethreefourdices.
Left home with out a good rain coat! so too wet to sign the log but a cache found TFTC

Quite hard to find but its still there

Second time a charm for this one. Don't know I missed it the first time. Simple but effective hide. TFTC

2 adults spent 10 minutes looking for the cache, our 5 yo daughter finaly found it.

Will found it!
Note books a bit damp though!

Quick and easy. This made 6 for the day.

found this on a lunchtime stroll

It took me a few minutes to track down this treasure. A nice location.

Took a bit of hunting to find this one. Had quite a small inquisitive dog 'help' me. Cheers Gav [10451]

Took a bit to find!

Quick find.

Very well hidden!

TFTC! No 3 on 11 / 11 / 11

Picked this up on the way home from work. Km and mother-in-law hunted for it last week but didn't manage to find it. I had a quick scrabble round and had it located without too much trouble (it was in the third place I looked after I read the hint). Didn't realise this walkway was here even though we have driven past loads of times! Signed log book at 16:48.

Today our midwife told us that to get the baby on the move KM had to take a three hour walk.... she decided to go with her mum for a bit of a wander (they did return around an hour later). On their travels they had a look for this geocache, which is quite near home. No luck with this one today, so I'll go and have a look for it myself another time =).

Final find of the arvo - was a bit of a scurry up the bank, which was damp post-snow. GP found it in the end, looked a bit out on the open - so we moved it slightly to reflect the hint given. TFTC.

Found 1st one for the day! With friend

Nice 'nest', TFTC.

Failed to find this one 18 months ago, but walked right up to it today. Last time the GPSr was leading us to a spot about 10m away but today it was pretty accurate. TFTC!

Was a bit of a slippery walk to and from the cache but luckily we came from the bottom. The path up the top of the stairs was completely white with frozen snow!!

TFTC

Great hiding spot my mother looked and looked there but could not find it when we nearly gave up I spotted it!

Tamara and Lisa

Found the hidey hole quickly. TFTC

Quick find TFTC

I used to go to school here, know the spot well... once we walked over, and me and one other kid got photos taken of us for some school thing... gosh that was years and years ago!
The school has changed alot since then... but still looks similiar. Brought back many memories going past... seeing all the kids playing on the playground!
Went down the wrong side for starters, so ended up doing quite a bit of slipping and jumping, and holding onto stuff, and stuff...
but got the cache in the end.
TFTC!!

very wet spot, first approached from the wrong angle, but found! TFTC

Took a while even though it was right under our noses. TFTC

Easy enough, quite a geo trail here.

TFTC

Luckily enough, found it in the first place I looked TFTC.

Found with johnnygoescaching a long time ago- probably more than a year! TFTC

Found with Mr B on our Dunedin raid which included 86 finds for the day. The first days of school can be pretty scary but then become good fun - or that's how I remember it many many years ago. TFTC.

Slippery path was harder than the find. But got there. TFTC.
