No recent finds and am at the bridge as i type. I cannot see it. Any chance of a check please
A fine winters drive. I suspect that the recent floods may have taken this cache with it.
Found the actual place easy enough and found lots of great potential hiding places but unfortunately no cache 
We even went equipt with gummies and had a gooood look but no joy

I suspected that if the cache was where I thought it was my gummies would have needed to grow a lot in order that I could reach the cache.
Time for another trip to the South Island, this trip that has being planned a while back as I needed to get down South for a family reunion and also catch up with Mrs Yeetrees who has being down in the South Island for nearly 6 months now spending some valuable time with her Mum.
After finding GC33GKR - Tree Hugger (Canterbury), it was time to hop back into the RAV4 and continue on my travel testing the vehicle to its max. Yah more country roads, more dust, dirt and mud to make sure that the vehicle gets dirty.
Making my way South again getting closer and closer to Waimate this was the next cache that I had on my list that I wanted to find today. Arriving at GZ, I was able to find a safe parking spot close to GZ and it was time to get out of the car and go and look for the cache. As I was making my way towards GZ, I decided to read the hint and once at GZ it took a few seconds to find the hint item and what I was looking for and I soon spotted something and soon realised that it was the cache.
Managed to retrieve the cache, signed and then replaced it back as found. Thanks erninz for placing this cache here and for bringing me to this spot, TFTC TNLNSL (5445). interesting spot indeed.
Now where too next, oh yes I am making my way to Waimate but just taking a short detour here and there.....

A straightforward find, apart from the grease on the steel beam of the bridge, which gets over everything. The cache and log show previous finders have had the same problem. TFTC
I spend way too much time in places like this.

I visited your cache as part of a week-long self indulgent Geocaching trip from Nelson to Bluff and back again. I apologise for not leaving a completely personalised log, but I do want to thank you for the time, money and effort you put into placing your caches. Without people like you who place caches, there would be nothing for the rest of us to come and find. You are fantastic

Mr B was overly keen to beat me to this one. He certainly succeeded. TFTC

4205. We found it straight away so that helped to put the spring back in our step!
Thanks

No ponies out today - aside from the unknown goo, 'twas an enjoyable cache!
Had a chat with a local farmer who suddenly appeared out of nowhere on his quad bike. All good though, I just said I was looking for mudfish.

Looks like a flood has been through here. The cache is safe and dry. A tricky for Hello Mrs to get to. TFTC
Managed to grab this one with dry feet. Remember being close to GZ earlier for a different cache. TFTC
OK, third place is not too bad. Considering that we were caching in the area anyway. TFTC
Were close by, so thought I better have a look, nice clean log. so a FTF
