New Year's clean up time.

On our way from Rotorua to Napier via Wairoa we passed this amazing spot. Great landscape. TFTC

Beautiful spot

Thanks for the cache. It is nice spot.

We made our way through the jungle had a little break and found the cache TFTC

Easy to find. Thx

According to the logbook my signature was the second one this year... Some people find caches but don't sign the book...

Found it together with tasdevil13 during our trip through NZ.

As there are not many caches along this route, we had to stop...
Funny that there is a pice of cow hide near GZ...

Found while stopping for a rest with gailcurrie10 & lornamack
on the way to Tramp around Lake Waikaremoana

Good excuse for a stop-and-stretch. Nice little waterfall. Found along with lornamack and telstraxr6. TFTC

As the driver I was happy to stop and share the spoils of finding a cache with gailcurrie10 and telstarxri

I haven´t seen uncle Tom but on our journey to Rotorua I have found this nice one.

We asked at the touristinformation if this raod was paved. And they assured it was!!! Result: almost 150 km gravelroad in a splendid area. It took us 5 hours to cross this forest. Thanks for the cache

In life BGC we used to travel this road most summers with kayaks on the roof to spend 1 or 2 weeks freedom camping on the lake. The forest has such a primeval quality it makes the tricky road more than worth it. Thanks for putting this lonely cache. It earns a fav from us. We should finish this trip w as many as we need for YUGeo's puzzle. PINO TFTC

Good spot for leg stretch on day trip to Tuai. TFTC

11.59am - Rather windy road but still enjoyed, so many horses and cows just wandering the road. SL,TFTC

A bit further up the road than I thought. TFTC

nice easy find on way to rosies bay- -GC-cheers jumboz

A welcome stop and stretch on the way to the lake.
Thanks. Dropped of the "Cool Caching Geocoin"

We parked our car and thought we needed to walk for some time.
Before we got out, we saw the waterfall.
We took our time and were able to locate the cache in very short time.

I found this cache together with steha70 a while ago. We are traveling around NZ.
Thank you for the cache and greetings from Switzerland. Grazie!

Finally! The first find today. This one was where it was supposed to be.
Many greetings from Switzerland.

Found on the way back to Waihi after some great days holiday. Thanks

I found this one on the way to the Lake Waikaremoana Track. Thanks for the break in the exhausting drive with my van.

Forgot to count the bullet holes [:0]
First cache on our trip to Waikaremoana as support crew for L2L multisport race.
Nice spot to stop - tftc

We are from The Netherlands. On our way we passed this cache, which was easy to find. TFTC.

Picked it up on the way to spot of hunting by the lake. TFTC

Nice easy cache. Thanks.

Well, after driving past this cache a number of times on work trips since being 2ndTF in January, I finally had a chance to call in again. Way back then, when I logged my visit, I noticed that the little gem package in there was actually a trackable, and said I would call in again and move it along.

Well, all other drive-bys were either in very heavy rain, or right on dusk (no hanging around in this park as darkness comes down, it is not a fun place to drive at night with lots of stock and horses roaming).. This time it was only drizzling, so in and out, grabbed the stone, and will take it in a trip to OZ.

This s a great placement Geckoh – indeed a good place to break the trip (on a fine day).

The Freezer Mice strike again!!!
On our way into Lake Waikaremoana for the easter weekend, so just had to stop in here on the way to pick up this cache.
Quick and easy find.
TNLN, TFTC.

This was a much appreciated leg stretch on the way to the lake thanks guys.

Passing through the park today on the way to work at the nearby power stations, this was a good spot for a brief stop. Did not recognise the gem as a trackable - will drop in again tomorrow on my way home and grab it (unless the weather cracks up, or the day gets too long and I am passing in the dark).
Thanks for adding a good reason to stop on the trip.

#942. Yay, FTF. Nice view across from the waterfall as well.
