It seems this cache hasn't been found since 2014. Suggest this one may need archiving as CO hasn't responded to multiple dnf's and maintenance logs.

No response from owner. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Could not find, like the others here

Pity couldnt find it. Needs replacing

Needs replacing ..... Could work out where it had been once ....good place .

Can CO please check on cache as it looks to have been muggles

CO please check as cache is MIA.

Decided to do a few caches tonight in the wind and rain, however came up empty handed here, checked all likely places as per the hint, but couldn't find this one. Thanks for the night time adventure anyway!

I digged around until a lady came and said it was gone

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

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

I returned for the first time 8 years after I lived in this area for a year. Not much seemed to have changed though... Thanks for the cache. Took me a while to locate this one.

3rd time lucky for me. After 2 failed attempts i was determined to find it this time. When i found it i was annoyed at myself for not realising where it was the previous times. TFTC

Found

With a cheer from the bloke across the way washing his car we found it. I guess he must see a number of Geo- caching people there.
Thanks for a nice quick find.

Second time lucky. We have more skill now and found it easier this time.

2nd cache found with rothesay_bay. Great hiding spot, very clever! FNLNSL

Great hiding place! Found with Enviro-girlnz. Logs were dry TNLNSL. TFTC

Took us a while but found it! Logs were all wet amd didnt have any to replace, may need to be replenished

The paper was all wet you might want to replace the paper

Was not sure if I would find it after the last log. Went to the place and found it very quickly and some bird poo on it showed that it have must been there a long time. It is very visible and can't be concealed very well I have to say. May it does wander at times.
Log was very wet and it was very difficult to sign. Didn't have my geogear to help out, sorry.
TFTC, cheers

Found this ages ago and thought I'd logged it but must have forgotten.

TB visit

Found the location but no cache.

Found with geophily.

Found with platnumonkeypaw

Found this cache for the August Challenge !! A quick and very easy find BUT log soaking wet and systema lid broken ( probably rotted by the sun!! Replaced with new systema, wrapped in a black napkin and 'rubber banded' part of original camo lid plus a leaf to upper surface. Placed log in new 'ziploc' but unable to dry (log) out. Suggest owner check it out if possible. Thanks......TFTC

Our cache for the day, had noticed this was in poor condition but as we decided to collect this straight after work we didn't have any spare containers to replace it. But surprised it was very dry . Logged and headed off to get Friday dinner from down the road, tftc

Very wet needs a new lid tftc

This was our very first cache. Took the whole family.
Searched a little while, eventually my wife was bright enough to find it after searching "high and low"

The container is almost destroyed though and is in need of serious maintenance.

Thanks

The Deutschmann Family

#1. Still upside down with lid broken, an easy find.

Found with Dominee. Hoping to bring a replacement container sometime soon.

Will try to bring a new cache to this unloved treasure. Found with Haruru23

Left the cache upside down hoping that it will protect the content better than if it was sitting with its broken lid up. TFTC

Nice and easy. The box are in need of repair as the lid is broken. Thx

Found it while visiting NZ for X-mas with Family...

Not so quick find with muggle relatives while introducing him to the sport..

We searched high & low & all around as GPS had us off GZ by a bit it turned out

TNLNSL

Thanks Seattle's Best

Couldn't miss this one, its the closest to base. Unfortunately we were not able to replace the container, hopefully someone will soon, it's looking rather sad! T4TC

The container is a bit damaged and needs replaced.

May need some work to ensure muggles don't find it

Yes I agree. The systema container is rapidly falling apart, left it upside down in an effort to keep contents dry.

The sistema case needs replacing. The exposure to the Sun's UV has caused the cache container to disintegrate & it is no longer waterproof

Out and about today doing a few to fill the calendar. Decided to call back to this one to see if it was within reach for us today. Yes it was. Yay. Great to get the smiley on this one. SL. TFTC.

Quick find while out for a early Saturday morning run. TFTC

#2918. Quick find. However, as the previous cacher noted, the lid had cracked, and it needs maintenance. Replaced upside down to avoid collecting water inside. TNLNSL. TFTC.

You migth want to check as the cache lid appears to be cracking/breaking up and had water in which I dried out as best I could, TFTC

Quick find in a logical spot, which always helps TFTC

Sweet cammo job!!

Out with my youngest on a hot and sunny day. Great weather for a spot of caching. Cache could do with a new log book. TFTC

Nice hiding spot.

Great!

Out with KiwiEric TOO.
Lid has a crack - might need replacing.
TFTC

Good Cache

TFTC

Nice easy find. TFTC.

Nobody around when I went, nice quick find.

Another walk down memory lane . . . .

Found on a grey afternoon. Zero muggles about and quickly found. This was a milestone for me (my 25th find) and it was close to a few of the first geocaches I found. Great camo,TFTC!

Found it =D

TFTC

In the area today with a client. Had to get a few, so handed him the GPS and away he goes... He had never been up here so seeing the development being made was pretty cool. CB made the find, was taken back by the work that had gone into the camo on the container. Has inspired him to make one and place. So thanks for that one... giving him a little project to do!!
Thanks again for adventure, all looking good. TFTC.

3.23pm. I'm not sure if the cache is in the same place as it should be [?] as it wasn't that high when I found it.
Placed it back in the spot I think it should have been.

Cheers M+S [:O)] (1950)

Easy find thanks

Quick find, could see it straight away and was easily tall enough to grab it. TFTC.

Called by, could see the cache, just couldn't reach it. Will need to return with a ladder.

The cache was very high up but luckily hubby could reach it by standing on his tiptoes!
TFTC

Found, good thing Fourty Five is tall enough to reach the cache

Height is an advantage here. Nonetheless, found with help. TCTF.

Found, TFTC

Found. Not one for the vertically challenged [like my wife].

Found with Biggles while caching in the area. I had the reach - but it was quite a stretch. TFTC

Found on day 2 of a 3 day Auckland cache raid with Kiwi Explorer. A more relaxing day all round in which we ONLY found 68 caches. Made this one more difficult by approaching from above. Luckily Mr KE's arms could reach the cache after I spotted its resting place. TFTC, Biggles.

Nice quick find, as I was in the area. Spotted on approach.... I was surprised this cache hasn't been muggled.

One of 262 found on Team Y-Cacho's 24 hour Auckland cache raid.

Found with Team Y-Cacho's during our Auckland cache raid 24 hour mission

Parked by your cache while driving the Team Y-Cacho's Auckland cache raid 24 hour mission

Many thanks for your cache, plan to be back soon with Butterfly_Lady

Easier to see from a distance than close up! One of 262 finds on 24 hour Auckland cache raid by Team Y-Cacho's. TFTC

One of 262 finds with Team Y-Cacho's during our 24 hour Auckland cache raid epic.

OmaGosh, over and out...

Out and about with the Y-Cacho's.
Spotted it as we got out of the van
Many thanks

Was a bit stumped at first but figured it out. Definitely need long arms to reach this one.

#546: Found, but not without a massive vertical challenge! The cache was found very high up and not within reach of an averaged height person! It took a lot of jumping to finally reach this. Good thing nobody saw me, or that would have been a very interesting sight indeed!

Placed the cache within easy reach, as a courtesy to the next cacher.

TNLNSL. TFTC

Quick find, TFTC

Yes, we did find this despite the muggle neigbours. Not such a great place for the kids, but thanks anyway..

Good cache but required help from geocaching buddy. Thanks. Log was very wet so added some dry paper.

Fairly easy to work out where the cache was - a bit harder to grab it. Got it eventually. SL TFTC

Only for those over 6' tall!!! Thankfully we have one of those in our team. TFTC.

Didn't have the GPS with us but didn't take us long to find it nonetheless. A few muggles out in their driveways but they were too intent on their own affairs to care what we were up to!

TFTC

quick find was all was quiet at GZ

Out on a raid in the near north part of the Shore this morning.

The local K9 gave me a very loud welcome.

Cheers for the cache.

Quick find as the street was quiet. TFTC

Found quickly. Reckon in publicly visible places like this its best to fess up to the neighbours so they don't get alarmed. TFTC

Just happened to be staying with friends only 100 yards from this one. Waited until dusk to evade the attentions of the neighbour mentioned in previous logs and found the container easily. All in good order. Found with Monkey Momo. TNLN SL TFTC

Yeah! finally we found a cache, after 3 DNF's even with UGTME with me, we were getting a bit dispondant and this was the last cache we had time for. - star (shaped) carabina + Dog (shaped) clip. TFTC

First cache of the day after shopping for car accessories with Helefant and Mr ugtme...nice day out minus the slight rain.

found with mondoolix and the help of the neighbour, who has apparently seen people like us before! the fact that we weren't a novelty didn't stop him calling out his family to watch us as we awkwardly poked about all the places they suggested! tftc though - glad we chose to came at gz from this side and not other way, that accessway didn't seem at all inviting =P

Stoped by and grabed this one whilst in the area. no mugles about in the wee small hours of the morning TFTC.

Tried to log on with the iophone but it didnt do it so heres the old fashioned way, hope it works, easy find verey brave cache, nicely done --Thanks!!
Ive sent 2 other logs with e the Iphone, so they may dowmlpoad of tyhere ownn accord, please feel feree to diss them

A quick and easy find. I used the lower acess to the walk way, almost a drive by
SL TFTC

A quick find on a sunny Sunday afternoon. TFTC

Another accessway discovered-took the "hard "option-needed the exercise-tftc

Out geocaching with DKQuadrant...
An easy find.
Met a friendly muggle who had seen others find the 'treasure'...
So we spent a few minutes explaining how geocaching works.
