First stop of the day with the owner. Recent landscaping appears to have disturbed the caches hiding place. DNF any evidence of its whereabouts.
Seems like this cache has been in a construction zone for the new cycle track. Will look at to consider replacing.
Quick find while passing thru greymouth during our caravaning holiday in the sth island...very sad reading the memorial at the end if the pier. Thanks

Our find attempt was brief, we drove to the location, said "well, it can only be there", found the cache, admired the views and drove to the next one. Thanks
Got to GZ to find a freedom camper parked about 2m from GZ, almost decided not to do it, but I managed to sneak in and out undetected. Caching at 6.30 in the morning does have its advantages sometimes. TNLN SL TFTC
Fantastic - can clearly see rua tuatara. Good hide. Seem to be following boxhill around today.
Happy to have an easy one. Keeps the kids interested. Was walking on the southern Tuatara's head a few days ago, and am going on its back soon. TFTC
First try there were roadworkers nearby - they've resealed the carpark entrance. No trouble on my second attempt - strolling along with an icecream was perfect camoflage!
#1576 (3/15 on a second day on the Coast). Hardes part was to dodge the whitebaiting muggles. TFTC.
Yes, from here you could imagine two giant tuatara. Was a bit muggly when we arrived so chatted with a local until the coast was clear - just in time, as we were being eaten alive by the sandflies.
