Logs
A few months ago a cacher from Blenheim told us about the Project gc statistic for loggers of archived caches. Since then we have spent considerable time and effort looking for caches that are archived but are still physically in the field and are able to be signed. This cache was on our list of try to finds as we were passing through the area.
We soon arrived at GZ and initially could not find anything, so we broadened our search and GK soon spotted something of interest, Sure enough it was the cache.
We are not sure what the 10 thing is though, but I suppose it does not matter as we found it and signed the log.
Thanks for placing this cache, we would never have been here if it was not for geocaching. And thanks for the smiley

Think the hint object must be gone, but found the cache. Outside of bag is wet, but logbook inside is dry. No multi in the cemetery taking you around the graves of interesting people buried here..?
A quick park and grab while out about grabbing a few caches down this way. Got a large bit of thorn in my hand while getting this one. TFTC
#149 about to go out caching in Milton again, having a look over the map and realised I hadn't logged this from last time. Took me longer than it should have considering the size of it! TFTC
Don't know what part of this one was supposed to be small? Found the cache and found the log. TFTC
Didn't get the hint but found the big cache. Was gonna throw in some swag once I had it open but the log book fell out of the other thing and after we SL, grabbed it in a new baggy and put the thingy back. We TNLF and returned the 3lt cache with it's contents back into the hide a little more hidden, noice camo but it's huge. TFTC
Heading south for a wee family holiday. After spending the night in Dunedin....time to hit the road again and continue the journey down to The Catlins and our campsite! Mrs TGs relatives are interred here so we stopped off and said hi. Nice big container cornered by Mr9.Cheers.
Holidaying in the area with tmann421 and collecting some caches along the way.
A nice quick find for us here today. TFTC

Decided to grab a couple on the way home. As I approached the site I saw a man waling his dog between downpours and thought on no. Luckily it looks like they were both in a hurry to get home before the next downpour. Quickly parked up, grabbed cache, signed log and back before the large drops of water came down. Cache and log all in good condition.
Very easy find today thanks.... on holiday down from Auckland .
The folk I was visiting live in Leman St , so we just walked to it ! Must come back and do some more round here next year perhaps !
Thanks AdventureTharon!

Met some people at the gate. I was sure they were geocaching as they had out paper and and a phone and were consulting both throughly at the cemetery gates. Turns out they were genealogists not cachers. I'm sure they're still puzzled as to what we were up to. TFTC
Log book saturated. Unable to enter name.
Interesting find in the dark. Thanks.

the reference means nothing to us but hey don't blame us we are North Islanders. TFTC
TFTC, a really interesting and old cemetery, so many stories to tell of such a different time! The cache was quickly in hand.
Found the hint item immediately but didn't use it to find the cache. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Didn't recognise the cache container either and still don't know what it is used for. Could it be that I'm a townie? TFTC #4712
Debsnz took one side and I looked at the other - not telling who found it Found with debsnz
The cemetery was very quiet today with no one about and this was a quick find as well. Found with Aoraki Sheep.
Easy find, but neither the hint nor the title meant anything to me. Met another geocacher though but.
Looking at the map this will probably be my farthest south cache, as we have to make tracks back to our motel in Mosgiel now. TFTC
Out and about tiki touring on the outskirts of Dunedin. Hehehe, clever hide, soon uncovered. SL. TFTC.
nice easy find on the way to Toko Mouth for the weekend, but no idea what the title means...

The cache was found rather quick. No idea what the hint was about (oh yeah.. the sign.. but still.. hmmm no)
Found at 11:23 - #2838 - with Alexesmann

5th find of 10 on the way through to Dunedin and the beginnings of a get to 1000 cache trip. A quick easy find. TFTC
Congratulations A.T. on your cache effort. A pleasure to be in the hunt when caches like this are out there.
As luck would have it, we parked right next to the cache. Loved the container. TFTC
A quick find and I LOVE the container - I groaned when I saw the shape - thinking the log won't come out easily, but was pleasantly surprised. I like it! TFTC
Quick find in the dark doing a bit of solo Milton night caching. Excellent container and great to see the hint object bring put to good use again.
TFTC!

5892 Neat container, and thankfully a nice quick find before some muggles arrived. Lovely cemetery, well worth the visit. TFTC
Nice easy find. Giving this one a favourite point due to the fantastic container. TFTC.
The last of the evening for us, wondering about the title but it was a little more explained at GZ. TNLN Thanks
