Putting this one to sleep as I a m not coming to Palmerton North as regular as I have used too
Searched in all the right spots however to no avail. I get home and then read the previous logs, D'OH.
Read the description and hint in the car before I ventured onto the walkway and easily spotted a likely suspect. Quick check of the GPS told me I was right so I expected a quick find, but no such luck. Lots of likely holes and spots but no cache. I see the person before me didn't find it either - suspect it may have been muggled. Let's see what the next person says...
Quickly found a pen and this area is quite disturbed. Had a good look but no joy
After what seemed like forever finding Valley Walks #5 I was super glad for a quick, easy find. The gps overshot GZ initially but once it settled it had me right where the cache was.
Thanks for bringing me to a very enjoyable walkway. TFTC

I had already done quite a lot of walking today so I looked for the closest access to approach this one. As I approached GZ, I realised I had been along here before anyway; it's a lovely walkway.
A quick find while caching in the area this morning, spotted it within seconds. Nice little walkway, fortunately I spied the entrance as I drove past. Signed log, TFTC!
Found the cache easily but the coordinates put us about 5m out, although this may have been due to the accuracy of the GPS. The log book is a little damp!
A couple of runners came by just as we were arrving at GZ, once we let them pass the cache was quickly in hand.
One of three we Found on a sunny Sunday afternoon with the kids and their friends
GPS has us a wee way off and didn't like where we might have to look for the cache so checked the hint which made for an easy find. TFTc
Easy find - been meaning to do this one for a while now. Took a Trackable, will move it along for its destination.
Next time I'm about I'll be sure to trace the track and update OSM.

Found it during evening home run from Massey. My GPS didn't save the file for some reason, so had to rely on my memory. Lucky for me it was not too hard to find.
This morning @Wifey said "don't come home for lunch because I'll be icing your birthday cake (design is a surprise). Why don't you go caching instead?"
I replied with "see you after work!"
Found during my lunch break.

Nice little walkway but the restaurant nearby made us hungry so decided it must be time for us 'average' cachers to stop for food. TFTC

Lots of people out walking their dogs in this area, but I managed to dodge them. TFTC
Quick find. The cache was very exposed. Tried to hide as best we could. TFTC.
As noted by the previous log this cache was very exposed - in fact at first glance I thought it was just litter and almost passed it by! Tried to rehide using dead fronds from the cabbage tree but the hide is still quite obvious from the trail. Thanks for the smiley today.
Quite exposed, and in danger of being washed away, so re-hid as best as possible. TFTC
A surprising little hide. First place we looked and didn't find it there. Eventually resorted to the hint, went back, and lo-and-behind - there was the cache. Huh. Cheers Gav [9427]
Found this one on my second visit. As it turns out I had looked near the right feature the first time, but it is hidden where there is no apparent hiding place, so I missed it. Thanks for the cache.
Walked down from the shopping centre carpark, an instant find once at GZ. TNLN SL TFTC
#2132. Made life hard for ourselves here. Both of us somehow missed this cache first time round. TFTC.
I can't believe how long it took us to track down this cache - we both looked in the obvious spot and both missed it. It was only when we were running out of hiding places that SW decided to re-search, and there it was! Had a great walk, and found 3 caches en route - what more could I ask for?

Quick little walk from the closest entrance...just time to fit this one in before dinner
We found where we think it was but no luck finding the cache. Great trails to follow. TFTC I hope it is found or replaced.
Found after a brief search, it is there, but just needed to widen the search 30cm or so from the position suggested in the hint.
A nice wee walkway.

1415hrs. Had fun finding the way into this one and after driving around ended up back where we started. Easy find while visiting from Australia. TFTCSL
Walked 150m too far because my gps unit went on the blink. After deciding something was wrong with it, I did a quick recalibration on the compass and we located it quickly. Found with Doomwheel. Thanks for the hide!
Thanks for the cache, I never new that walk way was there.The grass next to the track my look like even ground, its not
Staying just round the corner with Edvern, so out for a morning walk. Great walkway, TFTC
Surprised to find another cache so close after completing the other one on this same walkway. Oh well, another smilie face to the collection I guess so no complaints.

A straightforward find once we found our way into the walkway. We had the little Misses nzcoozer with us, and they recognised the walkway, but it was left to us to find the cache. TFTC

Good to get out on a very wet Sunday to take in some fresh air and a quickly found cache. Left a bottle top necklace and took a crab. TFTC.
a nice quick one to finish our day.Swapped a pet rock - a mouse & a little cat clip for a Singapore keyring
Good place for a walk, and a straightforward hide. Took little green man; left ruby necklace. TFTC. Geodatum
