1 year since last find

As this cache has been out of action for too long, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

No luck for two of us today. Needs CO to check this please.

Found two likely spots given the hint. No luck.

No finds in 6 months? All DNFs needs a check please.

Hidey hole has gone... will replant soon

Got to 0m on the gps, looked high and low but no luck. Looking forward to hearing of it's still there, as a lot of debre covering the site

Couldn't find it

Sorry to say our eyes must have been painted on as we had no joy

Didn't find. Think this one might be gone.

Cant find

tftc! good camo here- took a few minutes to find!

Great hide! GPS was bouncing around a bit so took a wee while to find GZ

Great camo, really creative!

Found it. Clever!

Great camo, trust your compass

Out for an afternoons caching and a clean up of the trail........... GPS all over the place but soon located the cache with some thought !!! Great camo, well worth a 'favourite' for innovation!! TFTC

Found during a pleasant stroll through the park before setting off to relatives in Auckland. nifty piece of DIY gets a Fav SL dipped trackable replaced where found T4TC

#305 Found this one straight away- had an idea of where it would be as I approached GZ and I was right. Logbook has seen better days- I took the liberty of replacing the book but left the old one in there, each in their own ziplock bag. TFTC- very cool camo.

Nice camp! Easy to find though so good for the kids.

Easy find, love the camo and location

Nice location and hiding place.
Log might need updating as look like it has rained heavily and leaked into the cache

Nice hide. Had to run the gauntlet of the Mozzie's to retrieve it. TFTC!!!

Quick find. TFTC

I wish, I wish , I was going on a summer holiday . Nice quick find while enjoying a stroll thanks.

Logbook is wet, needs one hour in the sun. Great camouflage. Nice location.
TFTC!

Found by Lizzie10 and Roger from the UK out with fellow cachers ( family) ChrisnDust and James.Clever camo,cunning hide.TFTC.

Clever camouflage , luckily we found it quite quickly.tftc

GPSr all over the place on approach from 6m away, so I just looked around and thought where would a good place for a cache be. 2nd place I looked, nice camo. TFTC

Forgot the pen but took photo if required all quiet along here, walked through from nearby parking area

TFTC

A nice hide which I soon managed to discover the secret of. The log was damp. TFTC

I thought that I might see if I could find this one as it was near the carpark. I wasn't disappointed either. Very clever camo on this one, and even with all the water around it, the log was fairly dry.

1.30pm. Soon had this in hand. Nice hide.
Thank you. David.

Awsome camo job. log wet but still signable
tftc

#749, cool cammo, contents a little damp due to container being upside down. TFTC

Out today clearing up a few more......Favourite hide of the day

Grabbing a few caches in the area while passing through on our 'how ever long it takes' NZ tour.

Thanks for setting this up.

A nice day at last, morning rain gone.....Having a great time finding these NZ caches. TFTC from a couple of Canucks.

On the wall of the top 10 holiday park is a very large photo of the park in 1951, it's bush all around and everyone is in tents.

#500. No sign of Cliff today (showing my age a bit here). Nice camo and a lovely hide. This one merits a 'favourite' for this milestone find. TFTC.

Well, for me, this was an Autumn holiday. However, the weather was so much better than what I experienced at other parts of the country over summer. I was very impressed with how the hide has been done.

Almost back at the campervan after a ride with the bike. This was a nice camo in a nice hide. Thanks.

Second find with iPhone and it said 1m at GZ while Oregon said 6! So iPhone wins with tree cover. Very cute hide but mozzies find you if you hang around. NINO TFTC

Was expecting a Cliff to be involved somewhere on this one, great hide though.
TFTC

Great idea - good camo - well hidden. TFTC

A well hidden cache, GPS signal was bit off under the trees.
TFTC

Liked the Camo. TFTC.

Awesome container!

Great clothing for a cache. The young borrowed nippers were intrigued with the hide. TFTC

We loaded up the bikes and headed out for a great afternoon geo-biking with the Storeytellas. Nice hide! Mrs Storeytella spotted the hide but only Mr Pastamaker was brave enough to retrieve it! Juicy big spider was indeed attached to the cache!

TFTC

Excellent hide probably the favourite for the day. TFTC #2625

Logged wrong, found after a while and there were a few boys hanging around making a bike jump. They told us that there were some others looking around the same place earlier. May need to check on this one in the near future to make sure its still there.

First defeat of the day... Spent a good while looking for this one but to no avail

Almost tore up trees but still couldn't find it

Our first cache of the day caching with Rhodzrunner, they took us to one of their own and left us to it. A great one it is too, great camo. TFTC.

Clever camo job, really liked this one Cheers!

Didn't enjoy seeing that someone else found this one on the same day and we didn't. Grrr!! Will have to try harder.

The GPS had me all over the place for this one. Eventually found it.

Great camo and hiding spot! Bet this is a mozzie hotspot in summer!! TFTC

Cool camo!
We needed our 10 year olds small fingers to extract the logbook. Should be easier for the next cacher now.

Found it! Lots of muggles around but they were no match for my ninja stealth. Tftc

New logbook in place

This is a great spot.

The logbook was saturated and was only just able to write my name.

Cheers for the cache.

out for a walk and found this one in the dark, great camo

Coolest camo!!

Very cleverly concealed. Paper log is soggy.

Great hide and camo. Log is very wet. TFTC

That was a tricky little find well done

Nice job on the cammo - contents very wet but still managed to log it

Great spot for my keen lookers!

nice camo
The logbook though is wet.. Needs at least a plastic bag. (Silica gel is also wet)

Only had to look in two spots, both were similar.

TFTC

It had been a little while since we were in Orewa so we paid a visit to find some recent caches. The car GPS took us to an entrance which was not a public access. Once we found the correct access point the location of the cache was found reasonably quickly. Nice work on the camo. TFTC.

Nice camo.
Coords were all over the place nder the tree cover.
Found it pretty quick anyway.
TFTC

NZ11. A bit of a challenge for the GPS in here, but with a bit of persistence I found it ok. Thanks.

Good clue and good dress up

A very nice area. Cache located fairly quickly - good camo. SL TFTC

Left a little piece of swag here. Good Clue and was a great find.

Got to this one way before the GPS. It seemed like the only place to hide a micro!
Liked the camo!

Nice camo. Thanks.

Great start to the day. t4tc

After two not found ones this one rescued our day. Tftc on our last day of campervan holidays before handing it over again.

First find of the day well before day break. No sign of Cliff but Orewa looks like a nice place for one. TFTC.

Found on day 1 of a 3 day Auckland cache raid with Kiwi Explorer. Found in the dark at the start of a very long day. This one was pretty close to where we were staying. TFTC, Biggles.

Nice hide-tftc

Pretty easy find in a great spot. Tftc

Liked the camo on this one so gets a favourite tick. TFTC.

Best hide yet from the ones we have found in NZ. GPS signal all over the place under the trees so needed the clue. Great one. TFTC

Half the ShatteredStrollers visiting NZ from UK with AskingBid. Loved this hide - our favourite in NZ and will mark it as a "favourite find"! TFTC

Quick find with dry feet.

Out for a long walk from the camping ground finding caches. Quick find.

Found a good place to park not far away, and headed for GZ. Glanced around and guessed what sort of hide it would be. Really liked the camo on this one. Thanks.

#777 We to are trying to pretend we are still on our summer holiday too. thought the camo on this was exceptional. Really appreciate your thought and effort on this one. Simply joy to find. SL. TFTC.

6315 We are still enjoying the remnants of our summer holiday... one week back at work, and the smiles are still there, awesome camo, many thanks.

Nice easy find, and a great walk to GZ, TFTC

Found with a friend on her first Geocaching adventure. She found it too. Sadly had no pen on us to record. Cool cache
