As there's been no cache to find for some time, 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.

Like the rest, no luck for me either.

Not there

I think it's gone

Could not find this cache

We couldn't find this despite looking all around the structure. It is a while since it was found. Maybe it is too hard. LOL

Yay found it. Juju54 not been here yet. Love the way you go places with this. TFTC.

A quick stop to stretch the little geodoggies legs better stop near a cache or two. Cheers.

Muggle mowing lawns slowed us just a tad

TFTC

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

Logged with GCDroid.

Not such a good start to what I hope will be a record find for me today

Nice easy find for our first attempt at geocaching

Awesome find! Was cool stuff in it

Would be a great place to watch sport, no sport being played today though.
TFTC
took TB

We've land in town for the night. Staying in the Pioneer Motel very nice and clean. So before dark sets in we are doing a quick dash around to put a few smily faces on our map. TFTC.
We push out luck with this one as it is DARK now.

5992. Had to move the campervan to shield the hunter from a muggle sitting in his car. It took some hunting as cache creep has moved it somewhat but we were happy to take the find. Thanks. Rodney and Iris.

Didnt sign logg to many muggles but look whst we found a spongebob riding a horse

Nice area had a good look around thanks

A bit of cache creep so quite in line with hint but straight forward find all the same. TFTC

Sunday is a great time to be here...not a ball in sight!

A wet and damp day made for an absence of muggles but contributed to wet and dirty knees. Eventually my search was rewarded.. my antics hopefully not observed.

Found at 10:26:00 a.m. on 3/05/2013.

This cache was found on the day I reached 2000 finds in and around Palmerston, Otago. I biked most of them and then grabbed a couple by car on the way home. Thanks very much for placing your cache.

Found with Hinemoana.

Uf, good to have this one sorted! took two of us - one looking and navigating from one angle, and the other person reaching from another - great teamwork! TFTC!!!

checked each corner before finally finding it in the first one. TFTC #4725

This was fun.Got Down and Dirty,found by the car lights.TFTC

Did a few exercises like squats, push ups and burpees all around the place in the effort to find the cache but no luck

Heading South with the chicks - time for some geocaching to break the journey! This was a fun find
Got it just before the storm!! Took the geocoin and will find a new place soon

Amazing what you find at times in these places. TFTC

Found after assuming the correct position. Would be interesting explaining what you were doing should someone pass by

Parked nearby and knew immediately where to look. Not many muggles around so it was down on hands and knees on the wet and muddy ground! Tried for a while but then noticed a couple of dog-walking muggles rapidly approaching and giving funny looks! Decided that discretion was the better part of valour and so with a friendly wave and smile we proceeded on our way north again. We will be back another day. Thanks for a chance to visit this area. Rodney and Iris.

Found on the way home from the Mega.

Last day in Dunedin for Sully1 and I as we visited as many caches as we could before making our way to Oamaru for the last night in NZ. The cold fierce wind today didn't deter us and the range of hides was once again a large one.
This was a nice find, thanks again Bitsprayer.
Pretty wild n woolly sheep on the way in

Found along with bogonghazy after the Mega Event, while picking up as many as we could before leaving Dunedin and beginning the trek towards Christchurch and the inevitable trip home. Sadly the weather had begun to turn on us this morning, but like true Ozzie troopers we continued our NZ assault armed with raincoats. Thanks to the CO for placing this cache, and for bringing us here.

Nimble and flexible hands required for this one.

As the final one in Palmerston, this proved a worthy challenge.

Find number #77 during the expedition to the Mega event. Place was deserted so easy find.TFTCSL

The NZ Mega starts tonight, so I decided to spend the day travelling around this lovely area as I awaited a couple of Aussie teams who were also here for the event...

Grabbed this cache whilst travelling & taking in the fantastic views around the area... What an absolutely beautiful country to explore & photograph...

Thanks For The Cache Bitsprayer

9906... All quiet the Palmerston Sports ground except for a lone dog walker, a quick find with ishoot, TFTC.

Needed a break for lunch so made this our destination. Good to see the placed well maintained, TFTC

On ground under structure, so not much bending of bones was required. I was in the area with YuGeo4 on a mini road trip following the sun. Thanks for this one.

Another great find on the Emvy_Us / Waiiti20 mega tour of the Southern South Island. TFTC

A man arrived to mow just as we were jumping back in the car. Found with Aoraki Sheep.

Need to have elastic arms for this one, was hard to replace as found. Found with debsnz

No one around so able to have a easy find, TFTC

Had to wait for some dog walkers to go, then finally got this one ticked off the list. Good hide. TFTC.

On a day caching trip with ingidayna to Palmerston and surrounds to get 1000 finds. TFTC

Found on a day mission to palmerston to get these green boxes, found with wethreefourdices TFTC

Not a person in sight late on a Saturday afternoon. Drove straight up to the cache, took the TB pussy cat with us. TFTC

Got straight to the GZ in the car, nobody about so I jumped out, looked around found and signed it and was back off in minutes.
TFTC

It was A & P Showday so had to be very shifty so muggles did not see us

Awesome day in palmerston today and not a soul at the sports grounds.

TFTC - gorgeous spot! Left a special TB for the next stage of her journey!

quick find

Missed this one previously, this time nobody watching so i could rummage around in peace

Out for a morning jog. thanks

Forgot to log when we got back from our Christmas holiday. Nice easy cache. TFTC

Absolutely no-one around when we came a-hunting. Quite obvious where the cache was in general, but finding exactly where was a bit more of a mission. Nice hide in an interesting park, one presumes that it is used quite often seeing that it is kept so well.

TNLN. TFTC.

found you!

Didn't take too long. Nothing happening here today, either.

TFTC

Not a lot of activity at night time, took a while to find. TNLN Thanks.

Tftc

Almost a purpose built hide. Thanks for the night time stroll in the park

This is such a cool amphitheatre! Nice snug dry hide.

Goodness me the ground is so waterlogged, how does the topsoil stay put? Great views. TFTC.

Quick find, our dog "Pete" had a good run around to strech his legs. Cheers

Found with Mr B on our run from Dunedin up to Oamaru. A good vantage spot to watch whatever is being played - nothing today though. TFTC.

Easy find thanks. First of four our Good Friday caching afternoon

Easy find for the last of the road trip to Marcaes flat.

Mama has to work today but Granville is visiting from Invercargill so he, Papa and Guwapo packed into the CacheMobile and headed out for a days caching. Quick park and grab, no sports going on here today. Salamat!

Quick find on day trip round area with Guwapo, and Papa in cachemobile

A very tidy ground indeed.

THIS ONE TOOK A BIT LONGER FOR US. TFTC

A good hide.
TFTC

No problems here.

Another quick find in Palmerston while visiting some family #212

Only one lone car nearby. The car left and we found ourselves the only people on the sports grounds. Perfect time to go hunt for a cache. Nice hide. TFTC.

Longer to figure out the gate to get into the sports area than to find the cache, as Mrs Nuvi was decidedly unhelp in the first case. TNLN TFTC

One day of freedom caching expedition #53. (Bitsprayer 34, the rest 19)

tried finding this one but needed my childrens resourcefulness in the end lol

yeah this made 10 10 10 10 for the day time to go home

got wet knees

Found with moneydork and rediguna

A quick find in the most likely location. TFTC

Managed to do this as a driveby after lunch. Cheers Gav [6519]

Could drive right up to this one.
No one about too cold and windy today. TFTC

added blue gem TFTC

Got a bit wet getting this one. TFTC.

Quiet day, but was not to easy after all the rain (a bit wet around GZ!). TFTC

Nothing happening here today. Neat field. TFTC.

TFTC SL TNLN easy find no sports on today

TFTC

TFTC. sweet turf

good place

Thanks Matt!

Fortunately there were no sports on here today or it might have been a little harder for 8 people to decend on this place to look for a cache that had us scratching our heads for a moment. Beautiful sunny day here! TFTC.
