As there's been no cache to find for months, 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.
We gave ourselves a limited amount of time. The obvious place did not reveal the cache so we had to move on.
This was a shame as it should have been reasonably straightforward but between the five of us looking we came up with nothing. Found a couple of very likely spots but no cache for us today. Will try again another time.
No luck for us here today. Found what we thought was the obvious spot, but came up empty handed. Will have to come back again, which is no bad thing!
Long walk back up the track after coming along the stream. Nice area for a walk. Log book wet.
We found this one while we were still feeling fresh at the start of our epic Goldie adventure and it was good to knock off a few warm-up caches before the hardcore trailblazing and creek stomping started. There was a bit of water inside the container and the log sheet was damp but still salvageable so we tried to shake and dry it out as best we could. Then downhill we went. TFTC!
Took a while cause we didn't know exactly the translation of the hint hahaha
Parked the campervan and up we go for a nice walk to the falls. Cause we needed to be there for a multi. Nice to see the new caches after a year.
Wedged the cache carefully back in the cleft

Quick and easy, found it lying on the ground! Filled out log and placed where it should be based on the hint. Little bit damp inside, tried to dry it for next finder. Thanks.
As the walk continued so did the finds, nice and easy find here as well.

This one took me a while as I started looking in the wrong place. Read the clue and soon had it.
A broken GPS, so didn't think we'd manage this one. Too far in to pace it out like the previous two, but we had the nearby way point of the "Top of the Waterfall" as a back up. But it wasn't needed as Master Jacksonz spied it as we approached. TFTC.
Well, it was almost like this by this point, seeing as we'd started with the other way! A very long, but very good day! And the walk took us about 5 hours, including stops, and finding all the caches! Was nice to get some sleep in the evening! Hahaha. A very good adventure. And, I slept like a baby!
An easy find though for the cache, (Thanks to someone who actually knew what the word in the hint meant! Haha... and this is why I study maths...
TFTC!!

Always nice to be guided towards such a neat place by searching cache pages for interesting locations to visit. Junior #2 found it before the rest of us got there
Had a bit of a look around as there were a number of 3 pronged trees near GZ. Was found in a much easier spot than first anticipated. TFTC.
We overshot the mark at first, but the GPS pointed us in the right direction and the cache was soon in hand! TFTC!
k&c out with mimi and pops, and new family member, A! Was looking at the wrong spot, but pops made the find 2m away! Getting pwnd by the noobs today! TFTC
Yep, I have just arrived at the cache, but the Falls are a bit further down the track.
Cheers for the cache.

Another find on the trail to the waterfall. My daughter found this one with the very good hint. Everybody wanted to sign the log so sorry for the little kid signatures, but its all in good fun! TFTC!
A very nice day out West in the bush in the company of Team Welsh and Zork V. We did the caches this side of the river as we decided to return in the drier months to complete the river crossings. We couldn't manage the steps and water in one day. Went on to the river, but decided it was too high for an enjoyable crossing....we will return. Thanks for bringing me out here.
Couldn't manage all the caches out here, stuck to one side of the river but we will be back. TFTC
That sneaky frenchman didn't let on he'd found it, as the rest of the cachers searched... the battlelines have been drawn!! ha ha ha
HEhehe, I let everyone search a bit longer while looking at the cache with master Friwi on my back. TFTC
Out on a FTF hunt with Greenblat, KIwileon & Little Red Hood. This was our 5th FTF for the day. We have a cache by the same name on Rangitoto. This was a reasonably quick find. Another joint FTF. . TFTC
Found together with Lil' Red Hood, GreenblAt and Ros(mar).
Nice dry track after the stream bash earlier.
