Cache appears to be missing, no response by CO to DNF's or Needs Maintenance logs.
We're visiting from Florida, USA. That was great fun but no luck today. Sigh. Thanks for placing the cache.
As this has had multiple DNF's since December, please would CO check on it? Thanks!
As I haven't seen the logs before, I tried it. Geoobject is clear, but no cache found...
Looked everywhere but didn't want to poke around in the power box so assuming it's missing.
Searched everywhere and this cache is definitely missing. Hopefully CO can replace it.
Bugger! Drove quite a way out of my way to get to this. GPS points to one spot, but I couldn't see it!
An easy find - the hardest part was getting the log out of the tube! Found at 1030Hr on 9Nov2015.
On a geoholiday road tripping to Christchurch MEGA and around beautiful New Zealand. Our four people group (temyllyl, laalaa, kapeka and myself) from Finland used group tag FIN to log the caches.
Welcome to MEGA Finland in 5-7 august 2016!
Today we drove around the Lake Taupo. Of course some caching on the way. We had lots of fun and saw many nice places and caches. Thanks for the cache!

Thanks for the cache.
Found it with Team FIN [janahola, kapeka, laalaa & temyllyl]
We had fun with caching few weeks here in New Zealand. Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was pretty good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and really scenary country!

15th day on our geo-roadtrip in New Zealand, and caching our way towards north. Logged using our group nickname FIN with janahola, laalaa and kapeka. After having a blast in South Island and in Christchurch Mega event, we had to start heading back home. Fortunately we still had few days left to spend in NZ while driving to Auckland.
Talking to another geocaches on our travels, who said this was missing, having found it before we stopped by and sure enough it is missing.
Did not find this one, not sure where it is looked up and down all the possible magnetic places and could not find it 
Very cool cache, haven't seen one like it before and hubby annoyed he didn't "find" it. TFTC
Quick find which was good as all the local hockey players are just arriving. TFTC 
Very clever hide haha coordinates caught us off lol awesome cache and retreiver . found with shay too lots and lots of muggles around here.
lots and lots of muggles around here.Visiting from Australia and grabbing some caches while traveling from Rotorua to Ohakune. We decided to stop in town and grab a couple caches, this was our first. It was an easy find but then returning it became a little difficult when some muggle kids came along. We waited them out then put the cache back. Tftc.
I've seen these caches before so no problem today. Sneaky hide all the same!! TFTC!!
Found the retrieval device easily enough, but couldn't get the log book out of whatever hidey hole it was stuck in.
Extremely funny little cache. Mum pulled the wrong one but dad found it with my help.
I haven't seen one of these for a while was expecting something else well done. All quiet here today. Tftc
Seen one of these before in the UK, very clever and sneaky, came as a bolt out of the blue.
TFTC.

Awesome find. Wasnt what inwas expecting. Was able to sign our names which was a bonus.
Stopping in taupo for a swim at AC baths on our way back home to break the long journey across the north island. Cache found with a little searching. Awesome container! Blends well into its surrounds and cleverly made. Thanks 
Loz and Cat having a swim at the nearby centre, a brief stroll and search had the cache to hand.. thanks..!!
Found but there is no room for anyone else to log there find needs replacing asap. Tftc
A quick detour on the way to a river walk yo Huka Falls. With new cacher Kiwikendyl. We spotted a likely object and sent her to investigate and there it was. Also with Metal-art and oldboy999.
