As this cache has been out of action for too long and the cache owner has not performed any maintenance, 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.

I thought I had disable this will replace soon

Checking on it. Not sure where it will replace when I get the chance

Easy find. Someone broken into this one and destroyed. A few items lying around. Very disappointing !!

Still exposed but at least the clue was accurate and quickly found without too much suspicion in suburbia.

13.45h. Quick find. TFTC!

A perfect autumn day in Cromwell. TFTC

Quick find TFTC

TFTC, found with Polargirl

Pleasant stroll whilst staying at a local Motel Straightforward find SL dipped trackable replaced where found T4TC

Cache was clearly visible and had obviously been muggled since it had been signed by a few local residents who haven't logged the find here. Tried to hide it better, but container is too big for its current location and with the locals knowing about it, it may be muggled again sometime soon. T4TC!

Easy find on a holiday in the South Island from Whangamata

Back in action. Log book all dried out.

Doing some maintenance on it. Drying out log book on.

Yep like previous cachers this one a bit obvious to the non cacher out there tried to hid a bet better but think the container too large, had to wait for Ken as forgot bring a pen. TFTC

Found on our trip to New Zealand crossing the southern island.
Today from Fox Glacier to Cromwell.

TFTC, #1362 team cire-senga

A quick easy find, as today it was in plain view. We covered it better, but it should still be obvious to a geocacher. TFTC

Found easily with my little helper. Nice one!

Felt very conspicuous here but managed to find it rather stealthily TFTC

Found at 11:52 AM GAFF1 in the company of Phetlern. A nice neighbourhood around here - very neat indeed.
Thanks sting1606

After NZ Mega event, accompanied with Sp00k & Ciotach on carvanning and travelling south/west tour. Thanks for the cache and fun.

Another very exposed cache. Don't know what the locals think of all these cachers turning up. Spotted GZ as we turned in the cul-de-sac.

TFTC! (with Tan1aNZ)

14:45
Another day on the trail with Pprass sightseeing, wine tasting and caching around Queenstown and Cromwell. Nice to see these little areas being provided in the middle of suburbia.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt sting1606.

Found at 3:02:00 PM while caching in Cromwell. Felt a bit exposed at this one especially with a Police car parked nearby.

Thanks sting1606

Easy find. Travelling with Varuna from Western Aust. following on from Mega 2012.

Found during 'The Gangsters' trip to New Zealand, being Big Matt, The Rats, steeba and myself.

We spotted this one from some distance.

Thanks sting1606 for the cache.

Day 14 of our NZ tour for the MEGA, we are visiting from Perth, Western Australia still driving around with our MEGA and Aussie flags on the Geo Hire Car. We seem to be getting some toots from fellow geocachers and other Aussies alike!

Only travelling 60kms today from Queenstown to Cromwell, but so many geocaches to find!

Well timing is everything they say. And so it is. We arrived at this cache just after school let out and sure enough there was a school muggle learning to rollerblade. Well he was up and down. so we left.

On our return after picking up a few more caches and doing some shopping at New World.

Phew came back parked right next to the cache. But what's this a car on the other side of the road, looking at us? Hmmm what the flags attrracted some attenition again or is it something else?? lol...

They moved into their house and we made a quick grab, signed the log and headed to the Holiday park for the night, before heading to Haast tomorrow.

TFTC sting1606

Found as part of the Gangsters- The Rats and Farmer Frentzen- as part of our NZ Mega Event Tour 2012.

You could see this one a way off from the car. TFTC!

Found this cache as part of the Gangster's Aussie assault on the first NZ Mega with Big Matt, FarmerFrenzten and steeba.

Spotted this one as we headed down the street.
Thanks

Nice quick find with the obvious markers. Cheers Gav

A quick find in Cromwell, before heading South for the day - TFTC

This one was fairly obvious from the car so we rehid a little bit better for the next geocachers (and nearby muggles). TFTC.

As we approached the GZ by car, we spotted the cache out in the open. We managed to rehide a little safer. TFTC.

Another too easy find by Loz47. Was pretty much out in the open so we will place it back a little more carefully..

Very enjoyable interlude in the greem belt after feeling pretty exposed at several other caches. TFTC #4129

We could have parked a lot closer but the walk was good for us.

TFTC

Quick find just had to wait for a muggle to stop looking in my direction.

5426 + 591 = 6017. Found during our/my NZ Mega visit week.

The ultimate in drive-by caches - very nice - just hope it lasts a long time !! Thanks again sting1606 !

TNLN - TFTC !!

Cheers....

We fossicked around with quite a bit of haste as there was a cop car (empty) parked down the road and we felt quite exposed. Found on the way to the Mega.

1636th cache found by WazzaAndWenches.

Waz and the Wenches are caching from Queenstown to Dunedin today in readiness for the NZ Mega over the weekend.

Another quick find spotted from the road as we drove in.

Thank you sting1606.

Found with renelm. TFTC

We really made this one a drive by. I know we should have enjoyed the stroll, but we had one hour to cache before dinner and the sky was a very ugly shade of black!! Mrs. Flipper put our names in the logbook and we were on our way to the other in this series.

Beautiful walk from number 2 and we were so pleased that the hint gave us a solid chance of a find. Mrs j got totally ecstatic to find a pathtag in the cache. Much to the amusement of a nearby home owner who arrived by bike and was retrieving his recycle bin and getting bike and bin up driveway all at same time. Our first tag of this trip so we traded tags. PIPO TFTC

Our 6th day in New Zealand
travelling along with SEMIK and Flipper's
Today we started from Hokitika all the way down to Cromwell via Haast Pass
Thanks to all that have placed all these caches

Another cache on our trip about Cromwell on our trip down to Dunedin TFTC

Grabbed a quick find and smilie with this one on our wander around Cromwell on an overnight stay on our way to Dunedin for the NZ Mega - we havent been here before so thank you for the cache and showing us some of Cromwell

Gorgeous day, nice and easy to find, just the way I like it.

A conference that Mrs G was attending in Queenstown was a perfect 'excuse' for the whole family to come too and have a wee holiday. Came to Cromwell for a daytrip....managed to corner a few caches in the process. Quickly found by the Wee Dude. Cheers.

Nice to find one of these three. Didn't even try 2 as it was just too visible to heaps of houses and muggles including one on a mobility scooter.

Tftc while at sting bday

Easy find - had to wait awhile until some muggles walked past but all good. TFTC.

Had an hour to spare during a cycle tour. Took the opportunity to bag a few of the town belt caches. Great idea to create the green belt.

Did the series backwards so this was another one we found. TFTC

Very public place

Cache coordinates were out by at least 5m, but hint was good enough to get me there. TFTC.

We wondered whether to bother with this one after #2 & #3, but PB went to have a look anyway and did find a cache this time.

Good find. TFTC.

Love the green belt.
