MWTP#03 - Pounds (Auckland) Mangere, North Island, New Zealand
By funkymunkyzone & 10centcoin on 26-Feb-11. Waypoint GC2P7VW

Next weekend a group of us will be caching on Browns Island, thankfully we will not have to worry about wastewater treatment, just finding geocaches.

Having a great day finding caches. Love your hides

Making room for all the new caches that get published during work hours when I can't go out for them.

Part of my "Wauckland" caching sojourn.

I ended up in this area today without a vehicle by chance and so have to make my way back to central city by foot or other means of transport.

What better excuse do I need to cache my way back...

Have to wonder if anyone else does this walk for the fun of it....

Anyone want to come and give me a lift back to reality???

Tftc. Nice day for catching.

Found it tftc nice quick find once I had the right tree thanks

Another easy find. Thanks

Nice easy find. TFTC.

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!

Greetings from Finland

FIN (laalaa, janahola, temyllyl, kapeka) holiday in New Zealand. Our last day this trip. We have seen in many places, but still stayed to seeing next trip.
Greetings from Finland.
Thanks for the cache.

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.

Last day in New Zealand. All fun things come to end. Will defenitely come back! Today our trip continued from Hamilton to Auckland Airport. Of course with some caching on the way. We had lots of fun and saw many nice places and caches. Thanks for the cache!

18th and last day on our geo-roadtrip in New Zealand. 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. All good things come to an end, and so did our geo-road trip.

Thank goodness for a quick find because it smells particularly nasty around this cache

Tftc!

Tftc!

cool find... continuing the trail.. tftc.

Thanks

Had to pick up some of the kids from Auckland airport today so decided to go up earlier and collect a few smileys. I have already picked up some of the caches in this area so enjoyed coming back and continuing the trail. TFTC

Flew into Auckland and had a few hours to spare before evening, so time to find a few caches! Thanks for the opportunity!

Geocaching my way around Auckland with Just-Lookin.

Had lots of fun finding some caches.

TFTC

On a road trip with Princess-Emily who found most of these hides. Great containers!

TFTC

Nice easy find whilst around the airport TFTC

Another park and grab on a beautiful day. TFTC

Love these quick finds. Aim today is to grab as many caches as we can on our trip back home to HB tftc

Easy find while on a long walk on a pleasant afternoon doing mapping for Osm . Busy plant works nearby!! Tftc

It smells really bad around here - grateful for a quick find!

I like this trail. TFTC.

#19 on our blustery biking best cache day ever. Grabbed these last few on our loop back to the car park. TFTC.

Visiting from Australia and staying in Mangere for a few days before flying back home. This was our second along this road and red leader spotted it as soon as we got out of the car. Thanks to the rain there is hardly anyone but us about.

So far so good. Another quick find and a happy Master 1 in his mountain buggy.

A nice quick one on my recent trip to Mangre. Cheers V

Found easily! Tftc

In town for a few days for a concert and a weekend away so decided to get some caching in as well. Thought that a power trail was worth a go so decided on this on seeing as it was close to where I was staying! Great and enjoyable trail! TFTC

Out for an afternoon Geocaching with the aim to break our daily record of 15. Find No. 17

POOOOoooo!!! Wind blowing in wrong direction here today. Quickly found cache and SL'd. Cheers ... and I'm outta here!

On our way to Central Auckland this morning, I wanted to find some more caches! This was one of them! Quick find!
Thank you for hiding:-)))

A quick park and grab on the first day of my NZ cache tour. Visiting form Sydney. TFTC log was full so I added a new one.

Quick find. Log is full but managed to get my name in down the side. TFTC

Hands down, the best wastewater treatment geocaching trail that I have ever done anywhere in the world! I have to fly back to the US tomorrow and have some time to waste (that is, geocache) while staying at a nearby hotel. Found this one easily. Thanks for the fun!

Today it´s our last day in New Zealand. We had a wonderful time in this wonderful country! Three weeks are much to short to see everything, but what we have seen was very very nice !!! Our last hotel is near the airport, so we can start for a afternoonwalk to catch some caches nearby! Together with silto we found twenty caches and made a nice trip round the small lake.

Just flew in from Perth Western Australia and landed to early to check in to our accommodation so we decided to grab a few caches to kill time . We manage to find 31 and all were found quite easily.
TFTC

Tomorrow we will fligh back to Germany and we booked a hotel nearby the airport. From there we made a walk to this powertrail where Athosandros and I found several caches.

We have a quiet day in Auckland after our cruise ended and while waiting for our flight home early tomorrow morning. I decided to fill the time with a power run so I could stretch my legs before sitting in airports and on board planes for 30+ hours over the next few days. This series is within easy walking distance of our hotel, so I headed out in search of some of them. Unfortunately, I an out of time before grabbing them all, but enjoyed the ones I did get.

The log sheet for this one is full, but I found room along the side to squeeze my name in.

If at first you don't find treasure, check another tree.

We took on the MWTP series today. Due to the number and similarities of the caches I will split into 2 logs to cover the lot. Greenwood Rd caches. We started out at #1 with a muggle in the carpark watching our every move – hmm not a good sign. Waited it out and he eventually left. Found the next couple with relative ease. We as we approached #7 there was a muggle just sitting there in his car right next to the cache muggling it up. We left alone and carried on to #8. Finished that off and he was still there grrrr. Left to carry on with the rest and eventually came back on the way out and grabbed the final one for us

Found it during my roundtrip in newzealand Feb+Mar 2015.

Quick find on way to airport. TFTC!

Quick find.

Tftc

Yay for another find. TFTC

Had our eye on this trail for a while, and having not cache much around this area decided to give it a go. After headed up Mangere Mountain, we managed to get all but 3 of this series. Thanks fmz

Found with merlot58, have now created own account and am logging all caches found

Heading out for a walk with some muggle friends nearby and I managed to persuade them to do some drive and grabs. Eagle eye 12 year old spotted this one

Bingo

Child almost choking to death..is it tye smell or her flu she gets in the summertime. Never the less cache found. Tftc

Is there a better way to fight against a jetlag after a 22h flight from munich to auckland as a little caching tour? I don't think.

Greetings from Finland! Visiting New Zealand with kobolttti and besides seeing the sights we're also getting some geocaching done.

We needed exactly 6 caches today (for statistics, you know) and had about half an hour to get them before returning the rental car. So we got some from this power trail... Thanks for the caches!

Found with Ephief while knocking six caches of this power trail before heading to the airport. Park and grab.

Our last day in NZ. Had a nice lunch in Villa Maria and while strolling back to hotel this PT was on our way. Convenient!

#293. Powering along nicely. Quick find. (No.6) TFTC

Quick find. Cache style is becoming familiar.

We should probably be approaching from the other way, then we would be on the right side, but the roads are so quiet that it isn't a problem.

Found on a honeymoon trip around NZ! Last day here! When got to the airport hotel we had a few hours of sunlight left. The geo-hubby was sleepy, but i couldn't resist the call of the caches. This area was pretty deserted so it was easy pickings. Another quick one. Number 2 was DNF-tastic and number 1 had a muggle car right in front, so I turned back. TFTC!
~Aoi

Find #2 ah ah ah! Log book was full though, TFTC

These are awesome quick finds. Thanks!

Nice camoo

One of many caches found during our month long tour around the South and North Islands. I am on rations for caching but finding around 10 a day.

Thanks to all the cache hiders.

Today took us from Bayley Beach to Auckland. TFTC.

Cool. TFTC. Quickly found

Quickly found. thank you!!!

Found the 1st cache in the trail yesterday. Came back for more today

Found it. Almost got the whole lot.... I get one or two every time we go bridwatching at the Pooh ponds. We love it! TFTC

Okay I don't quite get the cache names? Doesn't matter one in hand. TFTC!

Quick finds for the kids tftc

Nice one, found it!

Nice trail of caches, thanks

Excellent , one more done !!!!! Tftc

Nice quick find after a long drive down from the Bay of Islands - still a couple of hours until we had to check-in for our flight back to Wellington. These caches were just what we needed - nice & easy. Love the little factoids & info on the treatment plant.

TFTC!
with Tan1aNZ, Comandercon2 & FiddlefingersNZ

Nice cache. Very cute

Nice camo.

Lovely area with a great trail of caches! TFTC

Gorgeous day for taking the day of work and caching, I had one of those 'mental health' days whereby you just can't face a day at work and you just have to go A.W.O.L. I get those a lot!

See log for #1

found 1 - 20, good bike excessive ( most of the log books are full )

Found as part of the family - "find 28 caches in one day and get to 400". This part was done in car, though when the kids are older certainly need to do some cycling around here.

Pounds, pence, dollars, cents

Hmmm some of the smell still lingers here. TFTC

What a convenient series starting just outside our hotel. How could we refuse such a series? Our finds were limited only by the need to get back to the hotel for the event. TFTC, SL, TNLN

Found quickly, thanks

This whole place stinks. Bloody caching! Another one down. Thanks.

Quickly starting to notice this is a very popular cache trail. Many of the logs are very full! Found with little difficulty. TFTC

Found in between spits of rain. TFTC

We are well under way now.TFTC

Great trail! It twas such a nice day so I decided to vlog it! (May contain spoilers)

Lovely walk, even if our legs did hurt at the end

One more GZ at zero meters and spotted the well camoed container.

Quick find tftc

Found this series which was fairly close to where I was staying, so I uploaded the whole series into my GPS (or so I thought). (log continued in #4)
