Chilling In The Tree (Auckland) Te Atatu Peninsula, North Island, New Zealand
By ssgbme on 02-Sep-10. Waypoint GC2EFYF

I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

Hi ssgbme

This 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.

Regards

Try again another day

Looked around the tree, looked around the other trees, looked around the ground in the nearby area and couldn’t find it.

Very high chance it’s missing, needs a check or needs archive.

Did not find, can you check if it's still there?

Did not find 4 of us spent ages could you please check it’s still there and maybe some more clues about what type of tree and how far in. Is it in high side or low side of the wire fence

No luck
I'll be back for round 3.

Found with a friend great find some water damage

Found it all over the ground. I put them all back inside and placed it on the tree. Should still be easy to find. Log book was wet because it’s been raining.

Easy find to spot, but gps was bouncing a bit and led to front area initially

So not where my phone was telling me to look. But found anyway with Sportynz

Out with my daughter today to cache the local caches around my parents. Nice and quick to find. Everything dry and lovely little park for the first cache of the day!️Tftc!

Took a few minutes,but eventually found it nicely tucked away

Quick find with the kids

Found it. First geocache I've ever found. Very much enjoyed. Thanks

Took a wee while but found this hidden gem! My first cache too! Hint worked a treat !

Out this way running errands so stopped by to search for this cache. Found a way into the bushes and immediately spied the cache. Covered with a little more camo so not too obvious.

TFTC, good hint assisted find

Easy find good clue

Nice place to visit.
All ok
Thanks

Nice day to be out. Tftc

Found it

No problems at GZ. Nice size here! All good too. TFTC!

Was a good walk and a tidy park

Going through some old lists and noticed this one was never logged. Better late than never.Thanks for the cache

GPS didn't work. Couldn't find it

Found it and swapped something.

Great little cache.

Easy when you know how

Another quick grab while visiting my dad.... tftc

I like this tree. Could not miss the treasure. Thanks for the cache.

After a couple of minutes searching a few meters away because of the bad GPS signal of my smartphone (forgot GPS @home) I finally found it.

Came here in the dark after work, but no problem following the GPS to the GZ. Had to reach up a bit, but quickly felt the cache, TFTC

First time with three generations hunting in Massey. Easy find. Wasn't quite sure how to work it on my new phone; it did!!!

3 generations went geocaching for the first time!! Easy find. 3daymist.

First find for the Yanks! TFTC!

As I approached there seemed to be only one place that fit the hint, and there it was. TFTC.

No pen _ on a midnight mission with the bros xo world peace

NQF here at GZ Appeared to have no log so left temp one. TFTC and greetings from the UK

Good

A great well placed and sized cache thanks! All still in good order.

Great location. Thanks for the cache

Another nice quick find tftc

The GPS took us on a long mosquito filled walk but finding it was the reward!

Hate writing dnf, but after a good look through bush and almost 10m down bank, no sign of cache, just rubbish.

Found immediately as was uncovered. So covered up with natural camo once I'd signed the log. TFTC

This is a good cache took a little bit of looking with the wee fulla but found it

Found after searching wrong tree! GPS spot on.

Easy find

Nice easy find for this morning. Mr Washer got too adventurous and lead me deeper into the greenery when it clearly wasn't there. I, however turned back to where I thought it was and found it yay thanks!

Nice easy find, tftc

Easy find

Found with Tommygun9 before a play on the playground with the little one
[ * * * * Thanks for the cache * * * * ]

I was looking for a cache for today and remembered this nearby regular.
After a play on the swings for JrGun9 we walked across the park, I could've trusted my instinct on this for a change as it was exactly where I thought it would be from the playground - very unusual for me to be that right. Then it was back to the playground before heading home for lunch.
T F T Regular And Fairly Old C ssgbme.

Had a good look around from the park to 10m down the bank. Nothing.

harisree already had this one so we embraced the darkness and went to get the cache without a torch. Success!

Thanks for the cache!

Out for some year end caching. We were on a mission on completing 499 caches tonight. loved the size of the cache here. swapped some goodies too. tftc.

Walking off Christmas dinner. Tftf

Good spot for the kids as they got a play too. Thanks.

Tftc. Quick Easy find even with a bynch of people on nearby playground.

Gps had me down further than I needed to be

tftc

Went straight to this one and managed to avoid being observed by the family playing in the adjoining play ground.

GPS had us much further down in the greenery. Looking around thoughts of "needle in haystack" came to mind. Rethinking this, back tracked, took the name literally and there was the cache. Pretty simple, made hard by being concrete. TFTC

Out with brownydog finding a few local caches in between the rain. Nice easy find! TFTC

Hunting with 2.5 year old son and scottydow. Found this one pretty easy (the boy saw it first). TFTC

Now that one was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. TNLNSL

Another early finish today, gotta love em, this time for a sport session and as I know of only the obne sport I was keen to partake in Geocaching was the choice (obviously) Asked some fellow training people if they were keen for a trip but it must have sounded like looking for bits and pieces in the bushes which are muddy and wet and with varying degrees of success. That would be true but there were no takers so a solo trip was the plan
More success here for me after 5 DNFs so far this arvo. Nice sized container and rescued both the T Bs in residence, nice
T F T C

Nice easy find and large enough to drop off some trackables - one o the trackables on its way to Haiwaii so please help it if you can

Found it while on a jog read the posts

First geocache ever

Thanks. Found it. Great first experience.

Found first one yay !!

Walked right past it and deep in to the bush. Spotted in on the way out after having given up. Nice hide

Be careful not to get eaten alive
Good size

Thanks for placing the Geocache so near our house. Was our first one. Cool idea.

I nearly gave up on this as my gps had me walking straight past gz, and after beating about in the bush for 15 minutes I decided to leave it. On my way out I had another look at the previous logs and had an 'aha' moment and went back and found it where I had walked right past twice. TFTC

We were fortunate to have this cute park to ourselves today and to have it dry under foot. NINO TFTC

Didn't even know this park was here. Tftc

Out geocaching with my dad and family dog!!
Enjoyed the area and many parks we stumbled up on our hunt/walk

Great spot for cache, easy find at night, last cache to find before midnight.

TG4TC

Tricky nearly missed it

11 big one to find

Couldn't find

Nice wee park

How refreshing to find such a big cache! Kids played in the park while we found the cache. Thanks for bringing us to this nice park!

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

Came the long way, but found what I was looking for. Amazing old tree and a small piece of bush/forest. Thanks again for the hide.

My co-ords were 8m out, but it could only be in one! Covered cache with plant material. Another place I have not visited before. Watched a Tui high up in one of the trees. Beautiful autumn day for a caching adventure. Thanks for the hide and bringing us here.

Coords seemed way of gave up and searched on way back to car and hello what's this approx 20 mtrs from gz the cache ..tftc

GPS was a bit off but good hide

The GPS didnt help us at all for this one, took us to a completly different tree. One of our team managed to find it by just strolling along and happened to see it uncovered. dropped off TB
TFTC

Lucky this time! The container is huge... Can't understand how I couldn't find it 2 years ago. Probably have more geocaching experience now TFTC

Have tried twice. Cant find.

Easy find TFTC

A crazy week beginning with a week in Wellington for work, and then a public holiday and friends birthday, so flew straight to Auckland from Welly to continue the adventures here!!

So the friend I was staying with lives very near to here... and with buses every hour, I decided to see how many I could find of these caches before the bus came round in about 50 minutes!

Second cache... title made the cache pretty self explanatory. And made it an easy find. Had to stop to change GPS batteries here though, but that didn't take up too muh of my 50 mins!

Consec caching day # 375

TFTC!!
