Searched everywhere for this, but after looking at recent logs we decided to give up. Thought it might not be there

After unsuccessfully searching GZ 3 times during the day, I'm pretty sure I know where it should have been given the description and clues.

A busy Saturday on a holiday weekend didn't lend itself for a decent hunt. Had a quick look and didn't spot it, and didn't want to linger too much. The structure in question seems to have been largely rebuilt in recent times - I don't know if has happened since the last person visited or not?

took a while, the obvious spot failing to reveal a cache until - at the third attempt thinking "it really must be here then" - the obscuring bit of wood succumbed to greater force and hey presto open sesame - voila ici.

Had lunch on one side of the township then walked to the other side to find the cache - all of 250m!! Had a suspicion GZ would be about at the.... and of course it was. Nice hide. TFTC

there are 2 logs in the cache before ours. Scored a ride to this with beltfamily.worker is often on the structure, and should have been there 2 days ago, but the blustery winds from then, are still there today. well placed hide thanks.

Yes, that continued a bit of a dark trend with logs in caches made many days ago that aren't online yet. Puts a dent in the FTF ego. But in the end I startled my most gentlemanly of companions by getting overly competitive and nasty. My public apologies Sir! Made short work of this one. Tops of a great day, thanks.

Not a first to find or first to log. More of a retrospective first to check Smile Cache was placed during my first visit to this great area with Kiwi Explorer. TFTC, Biggles.
