I am archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in a prior reviewer note.
Hi mollymopThis geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.RegardsTheCoddiwompler
I had turned into the nearby side street on my way to the Chain Hills Tunnel open day, trying to find my bearings, and as I came out I remarked to MrMagoo72 that the hedge we saw should definitely have a cache in it. And so it was ... as we were driving out after the tunnel walk, decided to stop for this one. There was a man with his camera set out nearby, to capture some images of a train that passed by just as I was signing the log. Cache was exactly where the hint item suggested. TFTC.
Had no idea this hedge was here, so thanks for showing it to us. Soon found the cache where expected, with MacBayMeri. TFTC.
Ok looked again and we found it. Obviously had moved a bit. Put back it right spot we think
Doe eyed noob has been geo tour banging missing caches over the district. This cache has been missing for some months now. CO inactive and no longer maintaining caches.___**Tick tock. . .**
Wasn't expecting the brilliant topiary, wasn't expecting to not find a 4 leaf clover, wasn't expecting not to find the cache. Thanks anyway.
No luck today.
We found a hat but no cache anywhere near the hint. It may be there still.
Next time.......

It was good to stop and find this cache today - I tried it once, many years ago - I don’t recall such an explicit hint then and I gave up after a short search.
Today it was a quick find. Thank you, mollymop.

Cache 727 On an Impromptu caching trip with Wombats4 we decided a day trip to Mosgiel was the go so up we got in the frosty morning and made the trip up from Invercargill, it took a little while for the warm to come but Mosgiel put on perfect weather for us.
Another cache that my trip buddy had already previously found so it was another quick dash for this park and grab by myself hint bang on and cache in excellent condition , loved how well this hedge sign has been maintained what a neat attraction for the area T4TC

Nice formation of hedges here. Probably only been passed here once before but didn’t notice them. Nice and easy one today. Thanks for highlighting the hedges and thanks for the cache!
On a mission today to pick up the first seven new Wonders all. Before picking up the Grandies at 3pm

Haven't had much call to drive down this road since grabbing the free library cache moved across town a few years ago. Lately Wingatui has been a handy shortcut avoiding suburbia in Mollywood heading to the cache trails but wasn't a racecourse we used. We owned pacers. Pulled up at just about the only spot to park and opened the door. A micro cache was found and while some swag was in there, the unacceptable amount of time trying to reach the full putty logslip wasn't worth my time and threwdown a clean micro with a new bagged logbook. tftc
Fast found. Snel gevonden. Beautiful place. But look out. Mooie plek, maar wél opletten.
This road used to be part of my cycling training circuit, because there was no traffic to speak of. How this has changed! And I'm sure that this wondrous feature is new, too- sorely in need of a bit of TLC at the moment. Thanks for placing this.
A mighty fine local feature - perhaps up there with the Great Wall of China in being viewable from space?
Regardless, I took a good view from the opposite junction, which was surprisingly busy for a Sunday I felt.
Initially puzzled by the hint, but on approach that fell into place and the cache was then soon discovered.
Thanks mollypop

Had some time after a busy weekend in Dunedin to find some geocaches in Mosgiel with Harlandia and K&G. Quick park n grab. Tftc
My mom and I went out to find our first GeoCache and it turned out it was pretty much right across the road from our house!
I was in town for a cricket match, so I figured I'd swing by here. Towns in this region certainly like advertising themselves, eh! I'm impressed at this spot, glad I came out here. The cache was a nice easy find in good condition - many thanks!

A duck played trafficpolice in this intersection. She kept on crossing the road.

Easy find once we got on the right road. Got to look at some nice houses while we were lost!

In the area for the Chain Hill Tunnel Opening. Saw a number of geocachers on the path. After grabbed a few caches including this one. Container and log in good condition.
I use to live along Gladstone Road but can't recall ever seeing the hedge. A nice quick find.
A quick park and grab while out about grabbing a few caches to finish of this area. Nice hide with no problems. TFTC
Have driven past this hedge before but never noticed it's message. Quick find. TFTC
