This cache was visited today and removed.

The time has come to archive this series. I apologise to the Christchurch Geocaching community for letting it fall into disrepair. If you have found some of the caches and not others, and you want to find the final, email me the codes you have already got and I will reply with the location of the final (if you have emailed previously for help with this series and I haven't replied, please email again). I will archive the final at the end of the year. Regards, Dan.

Nice and quiet on a cold day for geocaching! Tftc

Quick find while i was sposed to be working. Tftc #53 of 365

A great area for a little cache hunt this morning, very little muggle activity so the hunt was unhindered. Employing a but of caching sense and a tad but of luck and within a few minutes > 5 even tge cach was found signed and replaced. tftc

I loved the cache

Found with Sir Belac. Took a bit to find and was just about to give up. TFTC

Finally found it after a bit of a search, and thinking about some of the previous caches in this series..nice hide. TFTC

On our way back to the campground.
Thanks,
Team Tjiplikira

Great wee find. Plenty of muggles around. Duck and cover mission. Found, popped the top, signed the log, vacated the area. Done and dusted. Thanks for the cache.

Couldnt find then came home and saw that it is head hight

A quick find while spending the night in ChCh while on a road trip to the West Coast.
Nice series.
TFTC

T FTC! Slightly damp logbook, might needs replacing soon.

Haha cool spot

GPS kept shifting around. Searched trees in garden searched building searched trees near path

Excellent hiding spot... On to next one.

Took us longer to get the log out than it did to find the cache Thanks mrdan01 4TC:)

Nice hide, looked dodgy :-p

Nice hide, found quickly

Quick find after tea

A rusty geochacher making a new start. TFTC

Still ticking these off the list and growing in numbers. Had to make apparatus a bit more "stuck" should be a bit more secure as it fell apart in my hands. TFTC

Fourth find for the day. League boys were warming up but I were well out of view. TFTC.

Nice quick find. TFTC

Nice cache, thank you.

Found in the dark tonight. Thanks for the series. I am a long way of completing it.

This one has been on my list for a wee while, had a little spare time after a gym session went and checked this GC out not a person to be seen in any direction, quick and easy. Nice one TFTC

A fun find in the dark. GPS was a bit off. Thanks.

This is the second of these that we have done but we are not aiming to complete the series as we are just visiting Christchurch.

This was a nice easy find on a mission to find 5 of this series during my lunch break today. Got 3/5 which isn't too bad. Look forward to solving this series soon! Thanks for the cache

TFTC!

Sneaky sneaky - park was a bit busy today but we managed to sneak in quietly

TFTC

I had to duck out between rain showers to find this one. Typical, I have a day off with no plans and it rains!!! TFTC

Good hide in a nice park. TFTC

Out for a morning stroll and our last day in the south island. Picked up this cache. Thanks Dan.Reilly for your cache and cheers from Australia.

Yay my first geocach took the dog for a wander around the park at the same time.

#3581

Made a quick stop and grab before continuing on north.

Third cache of this series... yay!! But unfortunately I couldn't seem to find any numbers anywhere inside the cache??

I had been at the gym, and was heading home, so decided to quickly find a cache on the way home, as I was gonna be busy all afternoon, and wasn't sure what time I'd be home/how tired I'd be. This one was pretty close, so wasn't much of a detour.

A nice easy find that didn't take me long to find, as I took a quick stroll over and it was pretty much straight up grabbed.

TFTC!!

Perfect spot to sit in the shade and eat my lunch. Of course not until after the cache was found. Was harder than I expected but easily spotted once you are in the right place. Made sure to write the number down. Thanks for the cache.

My 1st one!!! Took me a wee while but what a thrill to find it. Many thanks!

Quick find and log, even though quite busy around here, tftc

Good to cross another one in this series off.

Nice find TFTC

Found while using up a little time in between meetings. TFTC

We were over here for New Zealands first ever Mega Event when we found this neat cache towards the end of our two week caching blitz of the South Island.
What a fantastic two weeks it has been as well, it has been a really neat driving around the South Island checking out the spectacular sceanery, we are in AWE of your back yard, truely beautiful.
Many thanks for the placing the cache.............TNLNSL......................Cheers.

Quick find on our way to Northlands Mall BUT the number we need for the series was nowhere to be seen .

On our way to the movies and discovered we hadn't found this cache of the series. Aren't the numbers in the caches anymore?

Reperio at 1310.

After a great week was had touring around the South Island with Roostaman...including attending the mega event in Dunedin...we spent today finding some caches in and around this wonderful city of Christchurch. We added another find to this series...but we were still a long way off from completing the entire series. Liked the concept of this series though.

Gratias dan.reilly.

Find # 4781 and a total of 52 today with Marcus Vitruvius, on our NZ Mega trip.
Another day of Mega caching around the Christchurch suburbs and city.
Another nice cache and hide and not so quick find, then on the way again.
TFTC dan.reilly,
Roostaman.

Did not look shady at all two stalking around in the rain and two undercover police officers sitting in a car across the road. But finally managed to get a clear chance to retrieve. Well done TFTC

Almost done the series !

Our first cache in New Zealand. How good to be right next to a scout den being a scout leader myself. Nice hide.

Arrived in Christchurch late yesterday on our way to the Event at Dunedin. Time for a bit of caching today before we head off tomorrow.
After a DNF for our first attempt in Christchurch, it was really good to make a find with this one, even though our GPS initially had us looking elsewhere and there were numerous passing school kids.

TNLN . . SL . . Thanks for the hunt dan.reilly.

Excellent coordinates - took us straight to it and the kids were able to find it without any trouble.

Found while out for a late afternoon walk. Another one in the CSGQ Series. TN:LN. TFTC. #96 for us.

Hard to believe this is last of our Chch suburb quest & can appreciate the effort that goes into setting & maintaining this series. Will claim the final when next in area. Thanks.

Quick find while doing a multi with theroamingreliever tftc

Pretty pathetic response from me getting this cache sorted, sorry for the delay. All sorted now. Happy caching!

I am planning a cache maintenance run this weekend, so I will have a look at this cache, which appears to have been muggled again.

Plenty of places it could have been but unfortunately could not find. Has it been muggled?

could not find it

Slowly ticking them off. Used to shop for our groceries near here. TFTC.

Close to another this morning. Now compulsory to stop.
Thank you for placing this cache.

#100!! A quick find after dropping my daughter at the mall. TFTC

Quickly parked the car and grabbed Decoy Dog. Short walk later the cache was in hand. TFTC.

Pulled over and made my way across the road. Shouldn't be too hard and found after a few minutes in between passing muggles after being put off by the red herring. Well I've found one in the series, back to Sydney tomorrow so who knows how long it will take to get the rest? Thanks dan.reilly.

Out early on a very frosty CHCH morning. Quick find. TFTC.

Caching in the dark, bit spooky with the guys hanging out in the park nearby but never fear for my gpsr will astound and confound them.

TFTC

Thanks

Great - and only one left! The series comes slowly to an end. TFTC

134 - thanks Dan for another good cache. It was a lovely morning to go for a wander. Unfortunately a few other people thought the same thing, but time was on my side and I enjoyed the fabulous autumn day until they left and I could retrieve and sign. Outside was quite damp but everything inside was snug and dry. TFTC

One more down. Once more thanks for the effort. TFTC, SL.

A quick easy find in yet another suburban park. TFTC

Sure enough it was in the last bit I was going to look in…TFTC!

Another good cache found on a geocaching holiday. SL TFTC

Chose the wrong time to come today as there was a lot of muggles around watching the league but we managed to sneek it out and back in.TFTC

Quick find on a Sunday morning whilst waiting for Warehouse Stationary to open. Cheers!

A lot of stealth required for this one - very busy as the church next door was having some type of function. Managed to retrieve and place back without being spotted. TFTC

During a nice evening walk from our campground, we bagged 4 caches this evening. Greetings from Singapore. TNLN, TFTC!

I was here some months ago and failed to find the cache. After following the logs for a while I found it was time to have another go while in the area. It was successful. Thankyou.

Another one ticked off, spent 10 minutes watching the softball in the park nearby and dodging the few foul balls out the side. TNLN Thanks

Quick find whilst in the area. Thanks.

few muggles about, so took the chance to gather a few acorns for the pigs. TFTC

Glad to log another in the series- and even (just)remembered to note the series number this time. TFTC

Quick find; TFTC.

17/26 for the day before heading back to Greymouth. Nice quick find. TFTC

easy find
