Thanks I spent 25 minutes going in circles until I found it. A hint is its in a really obvious place just poke and prod.
Quick find. Luckily I have recently come across this camo setup. Felt very conspicuous, bit quick sign and gone.TFTC
Found this type before so not too hard. Remember what a head scratcher it was the first time. Cool cache! Tftv
A nice quick find. Thanks for placing your cache.
I'm in Auckland and I am exploring the region while I am based here. Today was another lovely sunny day. No biking today, just wandering and driving around. I had a great time.
Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches. Cheers.

This was a cool cache to find however as previously said it is missing the log paper.
The past week I've been riding up along Sunset Rd after school collecting a cache each day for my now 43 day streak, and today was no different as it was now this cache's turn to be found Arrived at GZ and spotted the familiar hide on approach but sadly upon opening, there was no log paper inside just like the previous finder had stated. I decided to still sign my name on the sticker inside the container, just above the barcode, as I am on a streak here TFTC Furbies!
Just moved in to the road and had to find it with the kids thank you so so much
As we approached GZ we instinctively knew what the camo would be. We stood there as a muggle approached, and we went behind the host so that she could carry on along the path. As I slid the cache around to get the log and sign it I looked up to see said muggle walking up the driveway next to us. Seemed like she knew what we were doing.
Very clever camo! Wouldn't have guessed on first glance. Quick drive by with the kids
Geocache easy to find because we have seen comoflage for another Geocache before that was exactly the same as this one. Still very ingenious though. TFTC
After getting off the busy off-ramp I headed here and snapped up this cheeky nearby cache. I like these containers, blend in real well in this environment, quite popular in Whanagarei caches.
Keen to make a few finds on my way home today so an extended loop to encompass some caching sites was made. The weather has been more 4 seasons in one hour today so was careful to time my exit from the car, knowing the sun wouldn't be too far away from any quick showers. I managed to redeem another couple of previous DNFs, add one new to the list of blue faces, and best of all - stay dry!

Out today in the North Shore finding some more caches for Mystery at the Museum. TFTC.
A nice quick find in the second spot I tried. Waterproofing isn’t currently very waterproof - I would’ve replaced the plastic bag myself if I had another with me. Great to explore the town and see parts that I haven’t quite got to yet. TFTC!
Cool!
Log sheet had run out so we put a new log sheet in.
Out with my son for school holidays geocaching.
The Raph.

Have had a few of these now so quick easy find, we managed to sign the log but it is pretty full. Tftc
First cache hunt but couldn’t find it. I didn’t really know what I was looking for exactly and it felt a bit odd searching outside a strangers place lol any tips or hints on where I should look??
I had a pretty good idea what I was looking for and initially thought it had disappeared. Before I sauntered off I thought maybe - - - and maybe I was right. TFTC .
I wasn't too confident from past log and on initial look thought it was gone as there isn't many places to hide a cache, however I searched a bit more and something felt like a cache and sure enough I had a nice dry log sheet in hand to sign. All is good here. Thank you
Had a helper tell us to look on the lamp post but when we looked we couldn't find, even in possible hiding place. Log book taken perhaps?
Jag50, Aiden29 and I decided to collect some more of the Shore caches. A nice quick find, log is full but we managed to squeeze our names in
Out with Merlot58 and Aiden29 to collect some more of the Shore caches. A nice quick find. Log is full and needs replacing.
After Miss Three and I found a cache in the park around the corner, we drove past to pick this one up too. Spotted the hiding place as we arrived, and managed to squeeze our name on the full log. The guardian only started barking as we left.
Had to wait for the people to get in the house, then it was a quick and easy find. TFTC!
Yay thank you for the quick find. It got dark and we struggled to find our 24th in 24 hours but this is it!
Needing to find our daily cache and running short of time. We have been saving up some of the caches near home for this sort of occasion and this did not dissapoint. Super quick park n grab. Log full but found a bit of space to make our mark. TFTC
Walked right past looking at my GPS, then thought about the clue, ahhh yes there it is, nice hide. TFTC
Notifications ARE important. If you want FTF's by the dozen, you have to have at least 5 big areas covered, and be well prepared to head to Whangarei for 10 new caches, even if you live in Auckland!! Even if they come out at night!!
But this cache almost had me going for a minute, I knew I was in the right area, but it was slightly hidden by the thing below and I soon sorted that and was on my way! cache no longer a secret anymore.

Luckily I've found similar camo to this before otherwise it would have taken much longer. TFTC!
A spot of night caching on a Sunday night to get some September numbers up! We approached GZ in the very residential area and MrNZT made the find in the only logical place, after grabbing the cache and signing the log back in the car we then had to wait out a local who had just arrived and parked up.
Enjoy these camo's, TFTC!

Vistra and I decided to have a numbers day and look at finding what we could on the shore. Day filled with all sorts of weather from showers to high wind, still kept relatively dry and had a enjoyable day.
Parked next to cache and quickly grabbed during a rain shower, signed and quickly replaced. TFTC

I joined forces with yorkshirekiwi83 and spent the day caching over on the North Shore - trying to make a small dent on the caches over there! A quick park and grab here, TFTC!
Busy picking these caches up one by one on the way home from work. Nicely hidden. Replaced log book back in its correct hidy hole
Last one of the day here for me today. Pulled up behind what could only be a cacher's car and headed to what looked to be the most obvious place for a cache. As luck would have it, it was and I was able to make a quick find without any barking dogs to worry about. TFTC
