As this cache has been out of action for too long, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

I note this is the only GC placed by this cacher and they last participated October 2012. Certainly the GZ has significantly changed since placement and GC was last found some four months ago. Just MHO.

Could not find must of just missed the last commenter that was looking for it. Prob would if thought each other were mangles lol

Been here years ago with Juty_bug, but it's very different now. All the hints are gone, replaced by long grass and regen scrub. Suspect cache may be long gone too. I'm allergic to grass, so wasn't prepared to search there or in the bush where GPS indicated. Shame as have used this spot for past rogaines.

Had a good hunt around and read previous logs but no luck

Amazing the difference between my phone and the gps cords bang on for gps thou followed the gps and there was cache at my feet tftc

Yep I say the same as the last Geocacher . Very nicely put

Nearly broke my ankle in a hole then worked out that the hint is now missing so just go by your gps and u should b ok

Took an unconventional route to GZ and ended up bang on the pub coords. No sign of the hint so wasnt hopeful to find cache. Wandered around for a bit and a bit of luck spotted the cache! A bit exposed but replaced as found as nothing nearby to cover it up.

TFTC!

Please check. The cache is missing. Found the spot, with the clues, but nothing was there.

nice and easy one to find

went about this the hard way but got there in the end

I have the trackable and was found with Weasel FSB very sorry in the very late post. I will get the trackable logged as soon as I write down the code to log it. TFTC was a great last cache for a nice arvo of Geo Caching

Nicely hidden, took about 5 mins on dusk... tftc Blenheim Bear

Managed to find the tucked away field... Spent a while poking around and finally found the cache Another day... Another cache for the August challenge

good spot shot rite 2 it was last of the day

2.35pm. Found our way to the right spot and soon found the cache. No arrows flying around today so we were safe.
Thank you. David and Noeline.

Took longer than expected.Had to wait while 2 contractors mowed the thick green Spring grass! tftc

150th find for The Great Scouts Australia Geocaching Competition 2013. Found with sunhalo, TFTC Equinox0132.

Found after cutting finger, so beware. What a great asset this area is for the archery people. Never been here before. Took out rubber spider web key ring and put in leather key ring. SL. TFTC

Easy and quick find tftc

nice spot I had never been to. TFTC

On my way home from a walk to Ngamotu beach I decided to try for this one. Because I had loaded the file pre-premium I didn't have a description, so ended up taking the long way around, but it was nice easy find. Left a plastic sign, and signed the log. Thanks for the cache.

Kewl little spot never knew was there! Persivere you will find it

Really easy to follow instructions, was much fun and a good cache to welcome my friend into the caching world.

Nice location watch out for Robin Hood

Left - Toy Skateboard
Took - U.S. 1 penny

Nice part of the park we didn't know about. Always wondered where the archers hung out. TFTC.

Found on a weekend caching mission around Taranaki with Geco72. We made this one harder for ourselves than it needed to be. Should've read the full description first, but what's a caching weekend without a bit of bush-crashing? Got there in the end. TFTC.

Quick find in a pleasant little park. TFTC

This one was close to our accommodation in Pioneer Road, wandered down, but failed to read the instructions about the path. Consequently took a bit longer to find the easy way in.

Thanks for the cache.

Found with my caching buddy Davycrockpot on an extended caching weekend. Well we made this one hard for ourselves and followed the wrong path and then had to take the path thats not really a path down the steep hill, but we got it! TFTC

A nice easy find while in the area. TFTC.

Hehe Dad decided to go down the steep non path track, while I used the path, which I recommend

Beautiful day, great spot!

Hi from Tauranga... Always interesting to see where the trail leads. Cache soon found. TFTC

Not a difficult one since we are a family with strong links to the archery club!! TFTC

Robin Hood, Robin Hood, riding thru the Glen,
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, with his merry men,
He hunted for the cache, he searched and searched and made the grab bet Little John for the goods and was off again

Spotted this one quickly and let the young lad find it. We were out showing him and his Mum the joys of geocaching. Picked up a travel bug and dropped one off. Left a spiderweb (it looked a bit like a target)and warthog and the young one took a hacky sack. We also left a notebook for a new logbook as the loose pages didn't do justice to such a generous cache.

Found on our trip home from the snow - with a detour to CANZ Matawatu & Taranaki...

First one we found in New Plymouth. Have hear many a thing about this city before as I know quite a few people from here - well... in the first 10 minutes, we already saw two seperate people getting arrested... don't know if that was a coincidence or what, but hmm...

This cache was very quickly spotted, as I could see it from a wee way away upon approaching - I guess I am the right height! But first we had to find an entrance way! - Took a guess at paths, and turns out we were right! Lol...

TFTC!!

Cool spot, found it easily. Dropped TB so good luck TFTC

Easy enough for first timers, exactly where it said it was, thanks!

Clue was right on target [8]

nice walk, boys rolled down the wet grass

What an interesting place, would love to have a go at the archery. TFTC

Nice cache, cool place, grew up here but never been to that field, took tb and coin, TFTC

I had some time to kill so I walked to here from the hospital. This is a nicely hidden cache.

Found @ 3:27pm with hccatcher11415


A nice little walk down to the nicely tucked away archery range. The cache was found quickly - I left a pathtag, keyring and pen. Thanks for the cache Equinox0132!

7th find for day. A nice walk down to GZ however I wasnt looking forward to the walk back up but it wasnt that bad. Found the cache nice and quick and swapped TBs.

TFTC

Family reunion visit to New Plymouth. Found with Allan Jnr.

Cool cache, good size for some SWAG. Pity I'd run out of pirate ducks!

Found this one with johnyoung
3rd of 3 today
TFTC!

Nice easy find. Left jeep travel bug, took toy car.

Awesome, a good sized cache, if I'd have known I'd have brought a few extra things to put in it. Very easy find in a rather secluded little glade. No arrows flying today but I'd like to come back when they are. TFTC.

The barrier was closed so we had to walk a little bit longer. But sun was shining nice walk and find. TFTC

Nice big cache, nice hide. No sign of Robin or the Merry Men today.

TFTC

as we came in from the spotswood end we had a bit of a walk but we found it easy many thanks TFTC

A nice quick walk to pick up this cache, with no archers in sight! TFTC

Nice quiet spot, easy find for Mrs Duo.
In : Red car
Out: Wooden Puzzle game
TFTC

Hey my first one. Thanks!

It would indeed be difficult to find or access this cache during archery practice! A pleasant stroll to GZ and didn't take too long to find the nice big cache.
TFTC.

#2821. A very interesting little spot. TFTC.

Good find on our round trip in the area.
Dropped off geocoin.

Nice easy find. Not sure why we missed it earlier. Tftc

Quick early morning find TFTC

No luck here today

another great find I didn't even know that area was there.

A nice quick find early morning

TFTC

Easy find, TFTC.

Nice walk, relatively easy to find. TFTC.

Field was pretty wet & sloshy today. Found cache without any problem though.Left a pet rock - a bear cub. TFTC

never been here before! had a lovely walk around.

Started with a locked gate, but managed to make my way in and had a very pleasant find. Good thing the facility wasn't in use today! Cheers Gav [8215]

nice easy find in the drizzle. tftc

Got rather wet n dirty finding the cache but was determined

Went the long way round and then down the bank. left tb tftc

A lovely location, and a splendid cache. TFTC

TFTC

My first cache found with the help of a 5 year old boy

Introduced sapdivers to geocaching and this was first of 7 for the day. Muggles sitting right beside GZ so asked for their help! Their 5 yr old son had already found cache so it was an easy find. Talked to muggles and they are very keen to start up geocaching with their family.

Nice one tftc

Nice quick find TFTC

Like the previous finder - all entries locked up but a nice and short walk in the rain for an easy find. TFTC #1878

Interesting little park we didn't know was there. Couldn't get to carpark as closed by poles from both sides, extra walk to carpark didn't kill us though. Cheers and thanks

TFTC

Also got confused at entrances and fields..... but got there with help of GPS which was spot on No SD card but perhaps I didn't look hard enough.

Didn't know this placed existed. Got confused as to the entrance but got there in the end. TFTC

Great quiet spot, thanks for bringing me here, I lived in NP for 20 years and have been to a lot of new places in the two days I was back visiting. Thanks

Lovely spot, 1st cache of 2011. For Lani.

Not sure that we approached this from the correct access but found a treasure trove of paua shells during our bush bash. They were definitely undersize so hope we don't get stopped by a MAF check on the way home . Easy find once at GZ T4TC.

Cool park, finally a big container I can put some larger trades in. TFTC

lovely spot, easy to find thanks

found it between showers, nice area

Nice and easy, thank you

Nice walk to cache. Soon had it located. SL -TB Left GC TFTC 

A pleasant spot for a surprisingly large cache. Very nice! What a great idea about the SD card! Unfortunately in our excitement in finding the cache and discovering a big trackable in there (which we posed for some photos with our TB and the cache), we totally forgot about the SD card as we didn’t notice it. Unlike the coast, there was no one here, so we enjoyed the hunt without having to dodge a single muggle. Good spot for a cache. Thanks Equinox0132. We enjoyed this one.

A nice simple cache on an early holiday. Cheers

Quick find after work Picked up TB to accompany us to Australia, left First cache in canada geocoin (finally found a cache big enough to take it.)

Our third cache find. Nice and easy to find without the use of GPS.

Slightly confused by the directions given in the listing but just followed the GPSr for a quick find.
TFTC

No arrows whizzing past this time! Not surprising given the weather.

Nice find on a trip to New Plymouth, found between showers. A little damp under foot ..... dropped TB
