Cycling from Alexandra to Millers Flat today. Our last find for the day which gave me some trouble despite the helpful hint.I missed it first pass but after reading a few logs my inspiration returned and miraculously there it was. TFTC

MrMagoo72 and I were driving home, taking this alternate route, and stopped to look for this one on the way. Parked up and walked to GZ. I had just hidden a cache container identical to this earlier in the day, so it didn't take me long to identify the correct item containing the logsheet. Had to use my TOTT to extract the log. TFTC.

Nifty wee find on a lovely sunny spring day, nearly missed it. TFTC

Unfortunately this one eluded us

Very sneaky; I had to do a bit of comparative investigation to identify it. Thank you for the cache. I’ve never driven this road between the Roxburgh Dam and Millers Flat before; geocaching is a good introduction to it.
 
22-Apr-23
Took a drive for a pumpkin-buying trip to Millers Flat this afternoon and of course couldn't pass up the opportunity to get some nearby caches. Sneaky - would never have imagined it as a possibility just a few months ago, so I'm pleased I have more geocaching knowledge and experience now to be able to recognise and log this one today. Tftc.

Nice
 
21-Feb-23
All good. Thanks

Took a few minutes to track this one down as it was located in a spot which didn’t match the hint. Replaced as per the hint.
Thanks for the cache, Sonya and Deane

Unfortunately, there was no paper to write but easy to stop where it was located

Luckily I spend some time reading the logs while waiting for our lunch at the Beaumont Hotel (not that we waited long and the recommend a stop here), so a seasonally easy find.

After a few DNF's and questions about whether the cache is still there, we had time today to check this cache and we are happy to say that it is still there. We have increased the difficulty of the cache and we are happy to provide a helping hand if requested. Enjoy.

That calls for a favorite

One of several caches located today in the Roxburgh area, including a 40km bike ride on the Clutha Gold trail from Roxburgh to Miller’s Flat return. Great day for it and splendid scenery!
Took us a little while to find this one. Should have spotted it earlier than we did because we “overlooked it” initially. #2402. TFTC.
 
13-Apr-19
Sneaky. I have seen larger nano's.
 
27-Jan-19

Made a quick trip to Alexandra to visit my ageing father and stopped on the return trip for a few geocaches. This was the only DNF for the day. We spent 10 minutes but alas it just did not show up today.
 
12-Jul-18

08-Dec-17
Didn't stop to check this previous find today, but looked like a lot of water flowed past here a couple weeks ago... curious to know if still there?
 
RowenaD on the ball today and found straight away.
 
28-Oct-17
Beautiful day for caching. Clever hide
 
13-Aug-17
This one took awhile but once I seen something I've seen before, soon had the little one in hand. No trouble adding my name to the log and it got put back at the hint properly. TFTC
 
13-Apr-17
Staying at Miller's Flat Campground. Now the weather has cleared we decided to do a drive down the Millennium Track road to Beaumont , drive along the main highway to Miller's Flat & collect a few caches along the way to add to our holiday talley. Thanks to the cache owners for placing caches along the way. The Clutha is certainly "awesome " . A clever hide, we almost gave up but noticed something wasn't quite the right size! TFTC
 
09-Feb-17
Took a while, but reading previous logs and taking the time for that "second look" helps
 
09-Feb-17
Sneaky little hide. Parking limited, but more cyclists went past than cars! Thanks for the detour.
 
24-Jan-17
We flew into Invercargill last week to catch up with the rellies, now its home to Wellington via West Coast with maybe a cache or two to break the journey up. Heading to Makarora today.
Took a bit of searching before I spotted somthing that was not like the others.....
TFTC Sonya and Deane.
 
08-Jan-17
A little bit of a search turned up this nifty wee hide, lucky Dad had a tool to extract the log. TFTC
 
05-Jan-17
Riding the Otago Gold Trail and picking up a few caches on the way. TFTC
 
30-Nov-16
A clever hide. Something that may have stumped earlier on and probably might have if I didn't pick up on something written in a recent log.
 
08-Nov-16
Found at the end of my drive past the "somebody's darling" grave. I searched back and forward getting frustrated before I clicked. I love these ones. Thanks.
 
23-Sep-16
Heading to Central so decided to go the back way from Millers Flat to Roxburgh and get a few caches. TFTC
 
19-Sep-16
Still unable to find on second visit.

[Giggling. Neat wee] smallbutnotanano. [Has it drifted? Placed back at hint area TFTC.]

While i was travelling this trip around this loop in our old red beetle, i had hoped to find them all but two DNF so far but at least this was a lucky one and i took photos of these crossings. It is interesting to see the "landscape' of where the rails went, where the land has been built up etc Alot of Manual labour had been used to make this rail line. Took photos of the crossings which i will add once i have sorted out which is which. All was well with this cache.Thanks for the cache and another smiley face
 
30-Aug-16
What a neat wee hide. Love this sort of thing. A quick park and grab on while on my way home from Cromwell. Left Cromwell early today so I had time to stop and get a few caches that I have been past many time and never had time to stop. So TFTC
 
10-Jun-16
Can't seem to find it today
 
14-Mar-16

My counting and symmetry skills came in handy. Loved this one. Found with jockthekiwi.
 
11-Feb-16
Out with BaldEd cycling the middle section, Roxburgh town to Beaumont, of the Clutha Gold Trail.

Cheers for the cache.
 
11-Feb-16
Second caching stop as Tufty and I rode the Clutha Gold Trail to Beaumont. Interesting that there are two hint objects. TFTC.
 
06-Feb-16
TFTC, found after a day fishing at the nearby Lake Onslow
 
21-Jan-16
I don't get this kind of hiding. Also "1962" is written on two places, opposite sides of the bridge, confusing.
 
19-Jan-16
Tftc - quick find on my way home from central - great to find some caches
 
07-Jan-16
Easy find Smile
 
03-Dec-15
On the way back from a long day in Alex and as the sun was shinning decided to take this alternative road from Roxbrough Dam to Beaumont Bridge, as it was past 7pm there were few muggles about which made it alot easier and safer to stop.

Cache in good condition.

Was glad I had work car and hi vis gear as took a while to find this one and wasn't the safest spot. Due to the container would have thought it could go on otherside so could reach from pedestrian bridge.... just a thought.
