Street lights (Canterbury) Rolleston, South Island, New Zealand

As this cache has been out of action for too long, 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.

Regards,

With no recent posts, and the owner not bothering to check to see if this cache is still there, I think it needs to be archived. With the growth of caches in Rolly this one could potentiually be blocking others from being placed.

Its pretty obvious to previous finders that this cache isnt there.

Im saying this needs maintenance but it could well need archiving. As I drove down the street today I noticed that the whole street has been replanted which means the hiding place (from when I found it) has gone.

Very cool hide for a cache trip with my two year old cousin. Thanks for the cache!

A nice quick P&G. Was it there last time we looked? Maybe we were just rushing it.

Quick find TFTC

Quick easy find... no digging required

Day of geocaching on the drive from Christchurch to Dunedin. Resulted in 156 finds. Quick find. Signed log. TFTC!

No wonder I couldn't find it. The coordinates were way out.

A nice find in a good area

TFTC

Tricky find second attempt at it glad to find one more off our list.

An evening out caching with rusty2337, without the Geokids!
Thanks for the cache
Also met up with MUNTR, great to meet you!

A night out with SayHelloEgg and muntr. Put back where we found it. No digging required.

Found with rusty2337 and SayHelloEgg <-- what a name $-)

As said previously, no digging was required, although I did do plenty before it was found by SHE.

TFTC.

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

SayHelloEgg and I shared a day out searching around Rolleston. Unfortunately we couldn't find this one but will return and hunt some more.

No find for us today

B+(

Foiled by muggles. I'll have to try at night.

Co ods way out i thought, but with the name and hints not hard to workout, had to take cache and sign in car to shut the muggle mutt up for a bit. Cheers for the cache as i squeeze in a few before the end of the year

That’s one more find for me! Thanks so much for hiding this geocache.

We knew the coords were out from previous logs but were prepared to look anyway. We got to GZ and there were work men about 60m from where we wanted to look. We did have a quick look but felt too exposed.

Despite previous logs suggesting the coordinates are well out, with the title, description and hint, we expected an easy find, but unfortunately this didn’t happen.

Good hide but wouldnt want to be here when its busy!

2nd time lucky!

TFTC!

Beautiful day!

Found on my way to a friend's house in Rolly this morning. Today's cache for the 31-day Challenge. Easy find, and the postie was trundling down the road as I drove into the Street, so made for an easy find. TFTC

Another blat on the bike and decided to aim for this one, the weather wasn't the best but that didn't stop me. nice easy fast find and with the log signed off away again. tftc

Coordinates a fair bit out but like previous finders used the clue and description to find. TFTC

Found with Sevren.tftc

A nice quick find today. Thanks

Boy geocaching keeps you busy, I'm currently doing about a million 'challenge' caches and need to get fifty this month and next to qualify for a challenge where you need to find more than fifty caches in the month for 13 consecutive months. I'm on eleven at the moment and I've cleaned up all the local ones and can't really start again so this is the best time. I need seven for this month and this aided my mission. I parked near GZ and my GPSr was pointing me to someones front yard and decided I would check the area suggested in the cache name and I was able to spot if from the footpath. I suspect that a bit of pruning has been done. Last success for the day.
Thanks for the cache.

After having such an epic time in Oamaru caching last weekend with sharkiefan, we went out to get some more caching done today. But today we were only going as far as Rolleston and surrounds. An absolutely beautiful day for it!! With the sun shining high, and it being more of shorts and singlet weather than winter!! And nice to be caching in daylight too rather than the usual after work darkness and usually rain lately!

Coords were way way far off here, pointing us onto someones private property, but luckily the title, hint, description, and hide was obvious and easy enough that we managed to find the cache pretty easily and obviously nonetheless!! Hehe. Almost getting to my goal of 3000 caches by some point next month, and ones like this help me every bit of the way there!

TFTC!!

Quick find with Sonia26642. Tftc

Wasn't where the GPS was pointing to, but the description gave us a big hint.

Quiet day on the street made this one easy to grab! Thanks

Road gang just down the road, but a bit of median vegetation to crouch behind!

Found with Mporokosa. TFTC

Found on our way to meet up with some friends for an evening run through Rolleston. We had our torches, and even before reading the hint, I figured I knew pretty much where it'd be. But that didn't mean we found it right away. Our GPSers were telling us to go one place, but my geosense was telling me to go somewhere many many meters away from there. And that's where we found it. TFTC.

Went caching with wife and daughter. Last find of the day. thanks.

It was great to find it! Success on our first hunt.

The name of the cache is very helpful, otherwise it's a lot of area to dig. The container was hard to see as it was small and black in the damp soil.

Nice quick find. Left a suitably sized ziplock and some silica gel to help protect the logbook.

Name says it all... Thx

Easy find tftc

Found it!

couldn't find this one

I was here with Pokernet today and this was a DNF today. Cache was not where previously found and work has been done in the area and tidied up. It may need checking.

Nice quick find, TFTC

797 - Gz was interesting for this. a very picturesque street. I'm on a mission today to get to 800 caches and only have three more to go! TFTC

Was doing Scout Leader training in the reserve and it would have been rude to have driven past this cache and not have stopped for a look. My phone was giving me a bit off GZ but with the name and hint still managed to be an easy find before heading to the fish & chips caching event in the park. (It is nothing to do with being addicted at all!! - day 142 of current streak)

Quick find.

# 703 . Odloveno s Holly-Mates-CZ. Naše druhá na NZ. Díky za krabku. TFTC

TFTC

Finally got my first find. Searched earlier today with no luck then it clicked a few hours later, went back and found straight away. didn't think to grab a pen though so will go back and sign it tomorrow.

Hey, woof... JC Cache Dawg here...

I'm loading all my finds from my Alpha Males (aka GenCuster) logs, where he deigned to remember that I was with him... As if he could forget...07/01/13 18:15

cache container very exposed, tucked in a bit more - TFTC!!

07/01/13 18:15 After topping up with diesel, this was almost too easy. JC Cache Dawg observed while HM retrieved. Cheers, GC.

Uplifted Penguin TB

Glad to finish on an easy one today.

Very quick find. Thanks

found it this time.

Easily found this one.

Another cache to add to our swag as we continue to see how many we can do in a day!

No trouble securing the cache - an easy find.

#1004

Coords out for us as well but found in the obvious place TFTC.

Quickly found on the way south.

There were two containers at GZ

No luck despite quite some searching...

As previously stated the coords seem a bit out but a quick find using another clue on the page. Thanks Britty-beee!

Found during 'The Gangsters' trip to New Zealand, being Big Matt, The Rats, steeba and myself.

this one took a little longer than it should have and again the coords seemed way out.

Thanks Britty-beee! for the cache.

Found as part of the Gangsters- The Rats and Farmer Frentzen- as part of our NZ Mega Event Tour 2012.

The hint didn't sound promising and the co-ords were out but we got there. TFTC!

Found this cache as part of the Gangster's Aussie assault on the first NZ Mega with Big Matt, FarmerFrenzten and steeba.

This was an interesting hide, we wouldnt get a cache published like this one back home.
Thanks

Decided to go down to Dunedin to attended the first ever Mega in New Zealand and my first ever MEGA. Managed to work it out so that I was able to team up with -gonefishing-, fozzmiester and agcnz on an 9 day caching trip around the South Island, this was day 8 of the road trip. Today we were making our way form Timaru to Christchurch for the night and picking up a few caches on our way and it was another beautiful fine day.

After finding GC1MW4Z - Stoney (Canterbury), this was the next cache that I had on my list that I needed to find in Rolleston on our way towards Christchurch. As we neared GZ, we managed to find a safe parking spot in the parking area not too far from GZ and once we got out of the car it was an easy walk over to GZ, we soon managed to spot the hint object and we soon managed to go where the GPSr was pointing us and once there we had a closer look we soon realised that it was the cache.

Managed to retrieve the cache, signed and then replaced the cache back where we found it. Thanks Britty-beee! for placing this cache here and for bringing us to this spot, TFTC TNLNSL (5366). Another quick and easy cache, found it quickly.

Now it is time to continue to the next cache on our list as we made our way towards Christchurch for the evening.....

Found as part of an epic NZ Mega Event trip. Day 8 - Timaru to Christchurch in the company of agcnz, -gonefishing- and Yeetrees. Thanks to the owners of the 500 + caches which I had the pleasure to find along the way and which contributed to a very fun trip.

Thanks for the cache Britty-beee!

Found on the great post-Mega roadtrip with agcnz, fozzmiester and yeetrees. A great trip from Otago to Wellington, taking in many backroads and some fantastic scenery along to way to over 400 caches. Thanks to all the cache owners for the great caches we found on the way.

Thanks for the cache, Britty-beee!.

Came here late afternoon after arriving from Timaru via lots of caches with fozzmiester, -gonefishing- and Yeetrees. The cache was found quickly - signed log, TFTC!

NZ12. On the outskirts of the city I stopped past here as there seemed to be a few caches about. This one made me feel a bit exposed, bit it did not take too long to I was on may way quickly. Thanks.

A muggle passed but wasn't even interested in us, must have seen OZZIES before, lol
Found with Coruze and Bushbaby321 on return from Mega.
SL.....TNLN.....T4TC Britty-beee!
troobloo from across the ditch

Crack the Ton! Found with troobloo and Bushbaby321 on our NZ MEGA trip. The views all along our drive have been amazing. The well maintained parks and streets. The muggles parked right near us walked by but did not bat an eye at us admiring the gardens next to GZ. I am sure we would have looked odd. More odd than normal. SL TN Left some PT's along the way. T4TC

Found!
3rd one we've found not put back properly

Reperio at 0835.

We stopped by this one on our way to Timaru today, but as we pulled up and looked where GZ was, there was nothing immediately obvious as to where the cache was going to be. Going by the title alone, we figured where the best place to look was, and Roosta soon came up with the cache 19m away. Whilst the cache location is obvious, the coords need to be updated.

Gratias Britty-beee!

Find # 4265 and a total of 84 today with Marcus Vitruvius on the 2nd day of our NZ Mega trip,
on the way south from Christchurch to Timaru. We spotted the hide about 18m from our GZ and made a quick find.
TFTC Britty-beee!,
Roostaman.

First of over 400 cache finds while on a southern caching tour with Emvy_us, TFTC

Heading towards Dunedin for the Mega and picked up a few caches on the way. Found quickly. SL TFTC

Found with bogonghazy on day 2 of our short assault of the SI, whilst here for NZ Mega. We cached from Christchurch to Oamaru today, and only a few short showers throughout the day, which didn't deter us from continuing on with a numbers run. TNLNSL. Many Thanks to the CO for placing this cache.

Day two of Sully1's and my New Zealand trip from Christchurch to Dunedin.
Today was only as far as Oamaru, and the weather, once it warmed up, was superb.
A couple of heavy showers throught the day made it feel like home in Victoria.
Thanks Britty-Beee! for the cache

Our first find on the Emvy_Us / Waiiti20 mega tour of the Southern South Island. TFTC Britty-beee!

Travelling from Christchurch to Timaru today grabbing some caches & exploring this beautiful country on my way to the NZ Mega in Dunedin...

The weather was lovely today. Warm in the car & a cool breeze outside & a couple of showers at times...

Grabbed this cache whilst travelling & taking photos around the area... Looked in the obvious place & there it was...

Thanks For The Cache Trutta

Found in the company of the Walenators as we start to make our way south to Dunedin having spent the night in Christchurch. TFTC

Can't believe how many road works there are here in NZ and there are some nearly on top of the cache. Even so we managed to park the car near and retrieve the cache quickly. TFTC.

Found at 3:28:00 PM. We decided to do a few caches in the outer suburbs this afternoon, much more relaxing than fighting traffic in the city. If not for the clue we would not have found this one as our GPS was trying to lead us to a spot 21 Metres away.

Thanks Britty-beee!

Quick pick up after aborting two caches due to eyeball poking branches and private property. TFTC

A quick pick up as described having aborted the two previous searches due to eye poking tree branches and a subdivision that has grown since the GC had been set up!

Quick find TFTC

That was sneeky,but actually quite easy with the Hint.Lucky for us,no one was about.TFTH

Finally found it - one of those where you wonder why you didn't find it before!

Coordinates off, but the name made it clear where it was. Cheers Britty-bree.

Quick stop, uncover, sign and recover mission. TFTC!

Easy find.

Quick Find with a few beginners

name helped here Thanks
