all yours G2

Calling time?

Hi

It appears that this cache has been inactive for quite some time. Is it going to be replaced or should it be archived to make room for possible future caches? If the cache owner does not contact me within Three Weeks, I'll assume the cache needs to be archived.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,

Regards,
TheCur8or

Another DNF - had a good look around but nothing found. Not been found for a year. A few DNFs - not a hard cache by all accounts, so probably missing
Tim - ddm

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Needs to go

another nope for us. It seems strange that it has not been seen in a year yet other caches around it has lots of finds

Argh another dnf from me for the peninsula area... Spent ten mins looking from every angle but cannot see it at all.

Quick park and grab. Lots of road works to negotiate. Good to have cuzzie giving alternate directions. Neat camo. TFTC

Good to have Shaun's local knowledge with us today as there were road works along Wharf Road so we had to do a little detour. Easily found a park and soon had the cache in hand. I had to figure out which Golden Triangle cache we'd visited when I got home. Hadn't clicked that there were two at the time. Yippee we're on a roll, thanks for the fun

Yay! 2nd find with my cousin & GeoFriend Liz e)

Never in my life have I seen so.many baby cockroaches, this cache needs a lid cause it is missing and now fill of creepy crawlies, otherwise though it is in good condition, cheers (:

Easy find as cache exposed.

A nice easy quick find this morning, complete with resident earwigs, funny looking Cockroaches !, Cache missing lid, TFTC.

Lid of cache is missing. Had to dodge cockroaches making their home inside the cache. CO may want to come and do a little maintenance.

Nice easy find here. Cockroach had made its home inside the cache due to the fact that it is missing its lid. However the log is dry. TFTC

#1946. Leap Day 2016. I have a work trip out to the Hauraki Gulf on 1 March and the chance to pick up a few Auckland caches before we head offshore. After doing a few caches in the Hobsonville area, I decided to check out Te Atatu Peninsula for a few more caches. Had a touch of deja vu on this one. Haven't we seen a cache named like this before!! Nice camo. Signed the dry logbook and replaced as found. Thanks for hiding the cache here.

There was no lid on this cache but the log was nice and dry, quick find and off we went, TFTC

Tftc

A mother was yelling at her kid in a frank conversation about her dating habits. I just kept my head low and made the find quickly. TFTC.

#10752. A quick drive by. TFTC.

After yesterday's washout (weather wise) and today's better forecast, StreetWalker and I were keen to do some exploring of the Te Atatu peninsula, new territory to both of us. Of course, detours to solved puzzles were part of the plan. Then there were the detours to trads on the detours to the puzzles . It took us a few hours to finally make it to our destination.
Nice camo on the container but I wasn't happy to see the earwigs that had made themselves at home inside. Thanks to the new bag the previous finders added, log book is nice and dry. TFTC.

Out for some holiday caching. This one was easy once GPS settled and with hint. The lid is still missing. We replaced the log bag as bugs have made it home. TFTC

A tree in full bloom, great cache

Awesome day trip with dad around the peninsula!!
Quick cache and tree in full bloom!!

Again as noted almost a drive by. Quick straight forward find. Replaced log and double bagged, did not have a lid sorry.

2 caches of this triangle down - 1 to go! TFTC

There is no lid on this cache. Log soaked through. Cache could use some love and attention

#163 Out and about in Te Atatu. Geodad and Geokids trying to set a daily record. Found but could not write in log due to being to wet. Lid on off cache so turned it upside down when replacing. Needs maintenance.

Say YES to nanos :-p

In the area for work. Needed a few more smiles on my map.

Found the cache quickly.

Good camo.

A great hide but as others have said, the lid is missing so the cache is getting wet.

Awesome Camo, but the lid is missing. Cache was full of water, log sheet getting wet.

Spotted from a distance. TFTC

Counting down to our 900th find. Grabbing a couple of park n grabs after a walk around the Te Atatu Peninsula shoreline. Lid missing but otherwise OK. Find 899

12pm - Quick find on this one and lid missing from container, sorry we had nothing to replace it with. SLTFTC

In Auckland (Te Atatu) for Gap's (of Fap and Gap) grandaughter's birthday. Picking up caches along the way...

A quick find... for Gap. I was busy searching everywhere else. No lid on this baby, but the log is holding up well. TFTC.

A nice easy find thanks. Needs a new plastic bag to keep logs dry- next cacher?

Lost its lid but the logbook is dry. Tftc, Sofa and thegls

Quick little drive by with SOFA. TFTC, thGLS

Nice and quick, no lid but contents were all dry

Nice hide & camo but had to be careful, there were some workers on a rooftop nearby. TFTC

Thanks quick find, cool camo.

Nice easy find

Quick find thanks to good clue. Not many people around this morning.

Nice camo. Easy find. TFTC

Lunchtime stroll, looking for caches. Nice camo.

A nice easy find cheers

What is it with these muggles. Are they following us today

Another quick find. TFTC.

Nice camo. blended in very well

I managed to finish work a little earlier than usual so took advantage of the extra time I had to collect a few more of the caches in my neighbourhood. This was #5 and proved a challenge for me to get as it was placed a little too high up for a shorty like me. I thought I might have to take a photo but I eventually got the log to sign and the cache back in place, this time slightly lower than it was so the next shorty can reach it. Loved the camo. TFTC

Been working very close to here and with a late finish thought would check out a couple of caches. Two reasons to celebrate this cache. It is our 850TH cache and we just won an auction for our first handheld GPS on trademe! TFTC

Last week I was in Ahaura north of Greymouth for work, this week I'm in Auckland! Life in the military is never dull.

I figured whilst in Auckland I'd better grab a couple of caches, even if only to mark TB progress. This cache is quite near to the place my grandparents have live since they married. My dad grew up near here, so I know the area pretty well. It didn't take long to grab the cache, nice cammo - although it is starting to get a bit thin in places.

Signed the log on 12 October 2014 at 15:35:00

A nice quick find on passing through

Quick find! Tftc

Another straight forward find - much to the delight of my son. He is now quite sure he is a geocaching genius Thanks for the cache!

Fun

TFTC

Found with Shadow's Friend on our last day in New Zealand. Thanks for the cache.

Out and about in Te Atatu to gather a few unfound caches, more muggles out so took this opportunity to input some more coordinates into the GPS (which had earlier dumped all its data [:(!]), nice easy find once they'd packed up and gone, tftc

I love the camo on the cache, well done it blends in! Logbook well full, so I put in 2 more pieces of paper to carry on with, should do you for awhile.

Nice camo log very over full tftc

Pretty cool cache, been wanting to get it for ages! TFTC

Found originally as part of rebel98 team, now created own account, re-logging as rustynz

You see the camera and the GPS take the same batteries. So when the GPS ran out, well the camera suffers. Thanks again for the clever hide.

We have finished the Coastal walk, eaten the ice-creams, and need to go home before the traffic goes crazy for rush hour. Just a few more cache finds won't hurt will it? Approached GZ, with bag, GPS, camera and other bits n pieces to provide some of my own natural camo, whilst I search, where can it be? Very clever camo, little tricky to open (those who have found it will know why), log book full, able to fit in name. Thanks for the hide and the adventure. No picture, batteries in camera ran out!

Found but took a while...log book full and had to b very sneaky as overgrowth grabbing me.

Nice camo, had me thinking for a bit!! TFTC!!

Come to the next New Zealand MEGA event! Register your interest now at www.nzmega2015.com

Nice quick find here and nicely camo'd. Signed log and headed on our way to the next one. Had to watch out for the muggles over the fence but we were out of there pretty quickly! TFTC!

Out with the kids today for a school holday cache hunt. We found this cache lying on the ground so we signed the log and put it back up in the tree in the spot where we thought it was suposed to go .

Love GeoCaching as a break from work... Change of scenery. Outside. Challenges!
Thanks for adding to the game. TFTC

Quick find. Like the hidden in plain sight camo.

Yep. My buddy saw it in plain sight. Great cache though. TFTC

Excellent camo. 6 yr old decided this cache was too hard, 10 yr old spotted it, 8 yr old retrieved it and their mum signed the log

Nice early morning find on way to work.

Initially walked past GZ and then had to keep walking because of muggles. Soon bactracked and made a quick find on this nicely decorated hide. It was around about now that I thought I should be doing something about a certain puzzle cache. But with no actual knowledge of the nature of said puzzle it was time to pack it in and head home. Will have to return for a go at the puzzle at a later date. Cheers for the cache!

A quick drive by while trying to not be muggled. TFTC

Another nice quick one thanks !

Great camo. Blended in well. TFTC.

Dad and 9YO had been competing for number of finds for the day; as it turned out, it was 5YO who spotted this one.
Mum was more interested in trying to look inconspicuous as muggles did a u-turn next to GZ!
1YO did her part in creating a distraction by taking off her shoes and socks!

Quick find for todays caching fix. Nice camo. TFTC

great day for caching, awesome find thanks!!

TFTC

Easy find, TFTC.

Parked up between showers and Bingo there it was looking right at me. Great camo jobby here.

Parked beside it and then had to look hard. Surprising how easy it is to see once it has been found. TFTC

The last cache before returning to the car, alas the light was gone and the mrs was in desperate need of facilities, so alas we called it a night and will return another time to conquer this one!

Took me a a little while before spotting it, a good hide.

TFTC

4.30pm. Got the idea of the golden triangle. Good camo here. Quick find.

I do like these. TFTC.

Nice quick find. TFTC

Quick find, co-ords spot on.

Fortunatley I'd read the hint just as my batteries died upon arriving at GZ. Not-so-quick find, TFTC

Another nice day of Caching in Auckland. Saw the cache before the carabiner! Nicely camoed Thanks for the hide

Good clues, quick find. TFTC

No problems for this cat. Nice camo job

TFTC

After a couple (make that three) of DNF's I thought I should check up on this one...and I am sorry to say guys that the cache is still in place and in the same tree as the carabiner but with better camo so you may have to look a little harder next time you are in town.

Another nice easy one on our mini tour of Te Atatu...following the Golden Triangle...

# 873

Unsure if we found the cache, it seems to have been found that day but it evaded us. Found a small carabiner attached to the tree, so presumed that it was part of the cache and it may have gone. But unsure.

After the nearby event we tried to find this one. Searched GZ for awhile with no sucess before spotting a carabiner clip hanging off a branch. Was this attached to the cache? Couldn't find anything else.

DNF cache,but clip hanging in tree.
