AaaaaaargH. DNF for us here. Nice area so continued to walk around a bit more of the pathway.
I'm sure I had the right spot and looking in the right place, but either I was beaten by some awesome camo, or the cache is gone. Lovely spot though.
Thought I had the right spot that seemed to match all the information but no joy on this one. Either I was defeated by some great camo or this one has wandered off...hopefully the former.
The container is soaking wet as well as the log book. This needs at least drying.
Found after a short search right where we expected it. Actually I would have looked here even if the GPS would not have shown a cache here
Great hide! Went to the obvious place first then came across this by chance - my gps decided to bounce around a tad before I got there.
Despite the fact it was an easy find, it was a nice hide. Needed to look a little better than just easy
Had a wee search , then found quickly once discounted other options. TFTC
lovely walkway. put my hand on a slug on the cache, yuukk, but got over it. thanks glyn
Not where you'd think it would be. Ended up leaning against and found it without trying (after spending what felt like an eternity looking in all the wrong places)
While rottie2007 and mporokosa grabbed the caaaaaache, I acted as a diversion and drew the strolling muggles' attention away from GZ.
We had our picnic not more than 10 meters away and hadn't even noticed that a cache was so close! Doh! Good spot. Quick find.
Nineth of thirteen finds today whilst out driving and walking around the west Auckland area.
Having found "Torture for some!" I walked along the path to find this one and got a little apprehensive about how/where this cache was located after reading a previous log. However, I shouldn't worried, although the cache was well camouflaged, it was quickly located.

We are on our second caching holiday in New Zealand, and today was to break our record of most caches found in a day – 35 found today! We walked to this one after having found the “Torture for some!” cache. The low tide suited one yachtsman who had his trimaran perched on the mud so that he could paint the hull. We walked up to this one and once close Marco took one side and I took the other and I came up trumps. TNLNSL TFTC

Chose a gap in the rain to find this cache. Thanks

After risking life and limb investigating a spot that lived up to the cache name we made the find in a similar spot that was much less scary. Nice hide. NINO TFTC
Looking in a completely wrong place when daughter number 2 stumbled on it - very clever! TFTH
logbook replaced with a new fangled waterproof, rip proof, rot proof, log book strip from our local Caching Supplier Kev's team.
On a mega cache mission. ooommooand narwhal out with the hunting hobbits. a whole lota fun.

Perfect tree to hide behind to log this cache.
People nearby as this is a fairly popular area but they didn't even notice me at all
Thx for a smart hide and neat camo

Decided to make this the last one of the day due to hunger so again snakelion and myself split up and hit the likely spots with snakelion coming up with the good this time in the most likely place. Nice and quiet along the path this evening. TFTC
Last one for the evening, and this one was soon in hand, thanks to the helpful hints. Cache back in place and we headed home. Nicely done

Nice little camo in a lovely area. Good spot to sit and finish off our ice creams. TFTC
Pleasant spot to linger and ponder on the meaning of life (without geo-caching) Never!!
Found it last week when training for a big tramp next year. Didn't have a pen with us, so went back today and signed the log - very convenient as we now live just a couple minutes from GZ!

Nice one because I do like Caaaaaaaaching!!!!! Walked right up to it, easiest find of the day, though time of the year certainly helped.

Nice hide and cache. No muggles about in the rain so only the cache obsessed (me) at GZ today. TFTC, Biggles.
Found this caaaahe without any issue, another nice spot for a cache on this peninsula. COOL. TFTC TNLNSL (2083)
It is time to get some of the Te Atatu Peninsula caches off the to-do list this fine sunny morning. This was number 8 on my trip around. I had to wait for a muggle to go back inside his house before I could retrieve the cache.
Cheers for the cache.

11:15 Easy find for Michelle and the kids found this one while my Dad and I dropped a car off at Harbour View Rd. Signed the log and the kids were quickly in the mood to find caches!! TFTC

Quick find during my Te Atatu clean up round.
Nice camo, typical G2 (did you ran out of V-bottles?)

It thundered down and then the GPS was 400km out..... what to do? Wait and patience is rewarded! t4tc
More great camo. Quick find after waiting for passing muggles. Reckon Glyn must have been working round here. TFTC
Now that I've worked out we are always one object off on G-2's caches this was a quick find.

Decided to leave work early and knock off a few new caches before heading home. Arrived at GZ and quickly spotted the cache. Quickly signed the log book and continued down the path to the next new cache. Rain was imminent so no time to waste. TFTC
Quick find for the wife no mugglers now that's a bonus.
