Greenslade House (Waikato) Hamilton East, North Island, New Zealand
By Jasp3r on 24-Jan-10. Waypoint GC23ATZ

Decided to create another cache here, as I have been unable to get another container like the one that I used. New cache will be up soon.

Cache is not here. Will replace sometime in December once exams are done.

No response from owner for maintenance and this seems to have been missing since it was replaced. I did not find it but I stopped looking when I read the logs.

I'm positive its not there. Have looked on several occasions and have seen the photo so know what to look for :-/

Looked and looked but no luck, even tried nearby possibilities will try again in future

Still a DNF on this one, I'm afraid. I spent about ten minutes peering intently around the sign, and couldn't see anything. Either it's very well hidden, I'm looking in the wrong place, or it's not there. I see there's still a Maintenance icon showing for this cache.

Finally back up and runnning

I will try to replace this cache this week, as I'm on holiday

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 21 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

Another one with a DNF's. Even one who has found this cache before and couldn't find it anymore. No reply from cacheowner at all.

Appears to definitely not be there anymore. Went with someone who's found it previously, and he didn't find it either.

Me and a friend searched for a good ten minutes, but couldn't find it. Is it still there?

DNF will try next time. Thanks

Found while in town for the day,

Could not find it even though spot is well documented.

Didn't find it - unfortunately.

Searched high low over under and around and even after being told where it was still no luck.

Quick drive-by and find. Log was wet and only has one more log space after we had logged this one. TFTC

found this cache today but could not sign log as it was saturated and nearly fell apart upon opening the cache. can describe cahe and hide if required. could be worth a maintenance run? tftc

Quick find, TFTC. Log book is full so had to squeeze my initials in. TFTC

Santa gave me a new Nuvi, so I thought, why not a cruise to Hamilton and pick up some random caches en route while I test drive the new toy. Thanks.

Easy Find.

#249: Great historic house and easy find...the cafe across the road wasn't too bad either!

TFTC

8am - OMG its only 8am and #5 in hand already for the day, how dedicated is that - Interesting piece of NZ history here TFTC

At last, but I feel the cache proper may not be where it started, I have struggled with this over many visits.

found one like this in jasper, alberta recently. cute!

Found, nice and simple easy find on way home from Sunday night dinner!

had fun finding some caches today on a rush trip to hamilton. awesome day

TFTC

Quick find this time round.

TFTC

Found this one a while ago just got round to logging it....TFTC

Interesting building. Thanks for taking us here. SL. TFTC

More difficulty getting the tiny log rolled up again than finding the cache! Thanks for the challenge!

Found by edmil and maddie. After just finishing morning tea we set off in search of a few more caches. This one was quite close by so it was first on our list. We parked the car some distance away and walked to GZ. The find took all of a minute. We signed the log and replaced the cache and then decided to visit the Art attraction that was being put on at the house. When we were in the Gallery we spoke with the new owner of the house. The topic got around to how we had come to visit the house and we explained geocaching she was very interested and amazed at the sport. We ended up leaving a donation for the True Colors Charity which was the reason behind the Art show. We also left her with one of our pathtags. The House will be set up as a gallery and will have its opening in the near future and we can recommend a visit. Our Micro Compass Rose also visited as this was a worthy cache, Thanks for bringing us to this spot.

What a beauiful old House,easy find in the rain thanks

what nice easy cache found it with abcdf4 like the reading of the sign

Took a while to find. LOL TFTC.

Interesting bit of history connected to this house.
An easy find in the dark.
Thanks, Robmc.

A nice easy one to find after dark by 'feel'
Read the board afterwards
Thanks

Nice hide. Could not log find as micro log sheet full... will return when renewed... TFTC

Just pulled up and two cachers arrived on bikes. Log is full

Interesting history thanks

#318. We've been out of the game recently, winter sports, weather, other stuff and we had a few maintenance tasks to do.

And we had to find at least one cache while we were out! We had looked quickly once before and were sure we'd looked in this spot. Got it now!

TFTH

Nice house, thanks for the history lesson.
TFTC

The Freezer Mice strike again!!!
Had the day off today, so out to grab a couple of caches.
Quick and easy find.
TNLN, TFTC.

Seem to have been near here before for a cache. Not sure when though. Nice hide. Quick find. Thanks.

Easy find! Thanks for the history

tftc

tightened really tight so some paint came off opening it. TFTC

Easy find with chem nut TFTC

Found with Greep. TFTC

Sweet

Aye? that wasn't there before

That was too easy! Will someone please tell me where it was before it moved? It was definitely not here before.

Phew ... nice to finally knock this one off! Cache seems to haved moved to the obvious place. I'm sure it wasn't there before.
Many thanks

TFTC... log pretty damp

4464 Quick and easy find after the rains passed. TFTC.

Is the cache currently in the original position? If so we can't really understand why there were so many DNFs when it was first published. Nice easy find in the obvious first place to look. Lovely old homestead. Thanks.

# 2020

Found easily this morning in a place I am sure I looked at previously. Thanks very much

Out and about in the Waikato to catch up on the caches. No probems with this one, easy find T4TC.

TFTC. After reading the log, I was half expecting NOT to find this one today, but pleased to say I did. Have found other ones like this, so had a fair idea what I would be looking for which definately helped.... Beautiful old house, interesting history. Thanks for showing it to us!

Interesting history. Quick find. TFTC

#89 Love the house! TFTC

Another spot that was unknown to me, but not now.

Had another go today but I am just not seeing it. Will have to bring some other eyes with me next time.

Last for the day, a quick and easy find. TFTC

Had to wait for someone to take notes on the house before looking for this one.
TFTC

TFTC!

FANTASTIC! Loved this find. Took a bit standing around pondering the previous logs and clues to start with, but after another look we realised we were right on top of it. Log book is totally full and needs replacing. Cheers for the find.

Out on the big 'run' with Gadget-Tron

Quick easy find. Exactly where we thought it would be. I was still reading the prior logs when -OGP- just walked up and found it. TFTC

Went for an early morning walk to get this one, it was only a few hundred metres from where I was staying the night. It was very much easier than I had been led to believe, I found it within seconds in the first place I looked. Great old place, I have admired this in the past when visiting Hamilton. Signed log, TFTC!

One of my favorite nano's Quick find. What a lovely old house. TFTC

Love this house. Thanks go to Panda22 for the find TFTC

I was so busy taking photos that panda22 found it behind my back TFTC

It took me longer to read all the logs than to find cache, what a hoot! , log in cache is nearly full, On the hunt with JDogShaw, TFTC Cheers Muzy Man! - Must try an get to Your Mill St Cache but that would encourage the cook to more rot tin shopping!

Lovely old house but elusive cache. Thanks anyway

Beat me!

11.22am. Add us to the list of DNF's.
Cheers M+S [:O)]

Yahoo found on 4th attempt

It appears we've had a closet DNFer in our midst. Wicked Weasel, now is the time to prove that you still reign supreme in the DNF stakes - log one more and your domination of this much sought after honour will be undisputed and I will bow before your greatness. Well... at least your honesty

Got on 2nd attempt.
Good to get out of the way !!

Am sorry to report that we found it - and the merry gerbils & I were just starting to enjoy this game
Popped down with the high hopes of returning home empty handed yet again and giving the weasel a run for his money in the DNF stakes. Found quite quickly this time - how did I miss that spot?
To all those logs saying it was found by sight, and the others saying it was found only by feel ...both apply.
A somewhat misleading hide shall we say. Still, at least it wasn't a puzzle

Found with GuanoGerbil & 49er princess. A quick and easy find (yeah right!). OmaGosh over and out...

Found at long last with GuanoGerbil and OmaGosh. Thanks for the fun. I think.

Too good for me today, spent quite a while on site. Will try another time.

I see wicked weasel is leading the race in the most DNF's. I might have to head down for another look soon before I get left behind
