I was walking up here today and as a previous finder I thought I'd check to verify the reports of previous DNFs. Yep, it's missing. I had a pretty good look in the area it was supposed to be in case was pushed in too far or buried or something. Seems pretty gone to me.
Since the CO hasn't been active in a while this would seem to require archiving. However, if the CO is reachable I would consider adopting it and getting it back up and running. Although as it hasn't acquired many FPs maybe archiving is the right thing to do.

Channelling my inner lizard, I got down and dirty at every viable spot along the length of path at GZ. Pretty sure at one point an actual lizard scampered up my arm. Nothing found, I'm afraid the lizard people have taken this one.
I had a pretty good look around GZ (including imitating a lizard!) but without any success. The weather was a bit wet and very windy so I didn't stick around too long. I did enjoy the beautiful views though!
Nice walk to get the cache after a long day at mana island getting the caches there. Glad to have a beautiful view with mana island in the background! Tftc
Had a quick look on a rubbish day without success but found quickly on a clear blue day. Who knew that was important?! Almost got muggled but cache was already returned when they passed.
We looked and looked, but couldn't find it. Bit suspicious that it has't been found since last year either........Hoping its just that we were just in the wrong spot and not actually been muggled
Hope to get it next time we swing by. Great view!

Spurred by the new caches in the area I thought it was about time I did some Titahi Bay caches, as shame on me I had not done any after several years of caching. I was very pleasantly surprised to find such a well paved long walkway- just as well as in view of the hint I crawled the whole way on my hands and knees- yeah right.
But I made the mistake one should never make of feeling before looking and was reminded of my error by being pricked in the finger by some dead gorse, nothing serious but ouch!
Cache is in good condition though swaps are a bit dirty, unfortunately I neglected to bring any swag so couldn't replace them and take the old ones home to clean up.
Dog walkers caught me in the act but didn't cause any issues, if they had questioned me I would have just had to explain as I don't think they were the type to muggle the cache!
I had come in from the beach end, and just had to investigate the rest of the track. This worked out well for me to proceed on to my next destination.
The Travel Bug listed as being in the cache is not there, it was logged in two years ago so needs to be marked missing either by its owner or the CO.

After some shopping in Porirua we were keen for some geocaches and this seemed like a nice walk with good views. We weren't disappointed! Very good clue - loved it! TFTC!
#843. A nice walk up a good footpath with numerous views out over Titahi Bay. Excellent coordinates as the cache was literally in the first place I checked. After 2 DNF's today its great to grab a cache so quickly. One TB present and removed, I think I might have seen this one previously. If so, I will drop it off again this weekend at a new spot. TFTC
Cute place the grass had just been cut so was a bit hard.

I wasn't even planning on grabbing this one, but after taking a wrong turn I was nearby so parked up and headed down the path. A quick find at GZ after a false start in a sneaky hiding place. TFTC
Great cache. I would have never even known this path was here if it wasn't for this and some really awesome views. TFTC
A quick find with TregearP in a stiff Northerly. Lots of surfers making the most of the big waves.
Thanks for bringing us some where we hadn't been before.

Great cache ...2nd today on the clearest of blue skies and excellent views of the multitude of surfers in the Bay taking advantage of the excellent surf after last nights rain...nice cache thanks.....Mandy ...Spain
Took me ages! Started off with the wrong mindset and all the logs, hints and even the GPS reinforced that mindset. Should have started with a completely open mind.
Today was definitely a clear blue one, the views were magnificent. It took a wee while to find this, we were charmed by the hiding place, not what we were expecting. I swapped swag for the bell shaped paper punch- very Christmasy. I think this one deserves a fav as its location gave us a surprise, TFTC
#1436 Found today after finding A-maze-ing Views up the road. The NW was howling and the rain moving in but there were a heap of people surfing and kite surfing down on the beach- brave souls. I was keen to find this one and then head home to the warm. We looked in the wrong spot for a little bit and then clicked and quickly found the cache. Unfortunately the lolly that was left had gone all gooey and made everything sticky. I used the napkin to clean it out as best I could but things are a bit sticky. PLEASE DON'T LEAVE FOOD ITEMS IN CACHES! The bag that the logbook is in is also torn along the bottom but the book is still in good condition at this stage. TFTC- neat little walkway with primo views.
A spot of Saturday arvo caching, slipped in at the end of busy week and before the rain arrives. Focus Titahi Bay.
We wondered whoever could have been responsible for naming the street Tuna Terrace. Truly! Or maybe just plain fishy.
Straightforward find, on this one - thanks for the handy and clever clue. Log signed, cache safely re-hidden, just as found.
TFTC found with team cacher Sweet P too
The Turtle strikes again!

Nice view up here. Looked out over whole bay. Cache quickly located. Must be my inner gecko!! TFTC.
This was a quick find for us during an enjoyable morning caching in the area. Tftc.
Found with WaffleKitties who was on to it here! I was a bit confused about what lizards do..
A quick wander from the Tuna Tce entrance after completing 3 other nearby caches, lovely day to be out for a walk. Easy find. SL TFTC
Our first day geocaching and we are hooked! This was a fabulous find. Heaps of fun for the kids
First find!! Was with my brother and nephew - was heaps of fun and I'm hooked..... Will go hunt for another today
Went with my sister and her kids (there first time - no longer muggles) great one to do with young kids because it's an easy find.
Isla took "love" bead and put in Scottish flag napkin
Miles took gem and put in airNZ lolly (wrapped)
Flynn took yellow dinosaur and put in small green and black soccer ball.
everyone happy

Found just before giving up due to heavy rain and wind. Took wild cat and replaced with dinosaur. TFTC!
P.S No sign of the moose trackable that was in the inventory.

Tricky find with Kiwitab! Weather made our search harder, especially the gale force winds and rain. Still fun though! TFTC.
Misread the map for another cache, and had just realised my mistake when I thought to check if there was anything else nearby - and there was! Found in 2nd place I looked. TFTC - day 72 of my 2nd attempt at the 100 day geocaching challenge.
Find #135 for the BAMMJams - fund just on dusk, a pleasant wee stroll watching the sun set. Mr BammJam was just trying to get the GPS to settle, and I said "It could be somewhere like here" - and put my hand right on the cache - win! The mini BammJams chose a wee ragdoll to take out, and put in a dice. Log signed, cache replaced, and we got back to the car without the kids demanding twilight playground time too much! TFTC.
Nice afternoon on the path with great views over the sea. Quick find after reading the hint. Dropped off a TB. TFTC !
Easy find thanks. Continued the walk up to the top and then back along the cliff top to the beach at Titahi Bay. Well worth the walk, thanks.
Ouch, ouch, ouch where is that cache ... might check the hint ... ahh there it is Great views. TFTC

Yes, good views but pretty windy up there today. Reasonably straightforward find. #162. TFTC.
We walked down from Tuna Terrace on a beautiful summers day: blue sky, blue sea and a fabulous view - we couldn't have asked for better conditions.
After searching unsuccessfully, we looked at the hint and cache was found soon afterwards. Nicely hidden away and enjoyed the hint.

#4810. Enjoyed our walk down the hill (bit slower going up; the day was starting to heat up). Great views from GZ. TFTC.
Good view of all the surfers dotted in the ocean waiting for a suitable wave. Didn't encounter any muggles on the walkway until just after I had replaced the cache, when a group of entrepid tempers came striding down the path.

Yet again, geocaching brings me somehwere I haven't been before. Thanks for the nicely hidden cache and the great view.
Once we realised lizards don't like prickly gorse, we tracked it down. Took orange crayfish, left love bead.
Cache #428 - a nice easy find, although not such a nice walk. We obviously picked the wrong way to approach this, especially as Violet Butterfly had to be helped up the hill...great spot, though. Nice hide. TFTC!
We thought a little and quickly had cache in hand. Swapped in a lobster and took a finger puppet. TFTC!
Fitness levels not what they used to be. Brad thorn card a perfect reminder of last nights game v Australia
Glad to knock this one off the list after a unsuccessful first hunt last year on the day we purchased our GPS. We were a little green then! Cache is well protected by prickly things and a dead mouse! TNLN TFTC.
Such a beautiful day! Took the earplugs I will use them on my upcoming trip to Germany. TFTC
Gorgeous day here today! Was glad of the hint, although cache was partially exposed. Tucked it away more securely. Now onward to Reel it In. TFTC!
Found with fufu74.
Lucky for the hint, otherwise we would have been bush bashing - just like you said not to do.

Great spot for a view over the bay on a beautiful sunny Wellington afternoon. TFTC -TNLN
Out for a walk with the youngest to pick up a couple of caches on this sunny and calm (a typical Wellington Spring day!! ) afternoon. A quick find with everything alright. Didn't notice the Geocoin in the cache, but it was the youngest who looked through everything. SL. TFTC
(6) took the family out for their first geocache, lovely walk, amazing views - keyring + ear plugs. TFTC
