Given the reported state of cache and hide, I'm temporarily disabling the cache until the owner can perform maintenance.

the tree it lived in has been choped down
 
15-May-12
My one DNF didn't justify a needs maintenance at the time, it is now obvious after several more DNFs that the cache has been muggled.

pile of rocks, no cache.
 
12-May-12
Found the obvious hidey hole, complete with camoflage stones, but the cache has gone on a mission of its own. Time for a replacement.
 
05-May-12
GPS was trying to put me in the middle of the road but from the hint and previous logs had a pretty good idea where to look. Found the stones but not the cache, though admittedly my visit was hasty as I was on my way to a bus and wanted to have time to drop off some trackables at another cache, only to find when I got there that that one had probably been muggled!

Cache in plain sight, tried to cover it, but not sure how long it will last.-Bitsprayer
 
28-Apr-12
Found the cache without any trouble, saw it before I got out of the car, put it back where it was but its very visable. not sure how much longer it will last. TFTC
 
25-Apr-12
An interesting spot I'd never noticed before. The cache container is out in the open when I got there, and it looks like its hiding spot has been fairly badly damaged. I tried to hide it as best I could but its still easy to see. Might be worth rechecking the hiding spot.

Now I'm not one for poetry but how about:

I don't suppose
A lobster knows
The proper way
To blow his nose
Or else perhaps
Beneath the sea
He has no need
To sniff and sneeze

(No idea who its by, I just remember it from my childhood lol)

Could see where it was but the difficulty was all the muggles passing by. Got there in the end though.

Made use of the helpful hint. TFTC


All the world's in geocaching maps
And all the men and women merely players, perhaps.
Each player in his/her time faces many risks
Like muggles, puzzle traps and slipped disks!
For each there is a time
Of being in geocaching prime.
When oft the cache is easily defined
And the log excitedly is signed.
But eventually this time is past;
Search ends - sans cache, sans log, sans anything, at last!

#2877.

Found container half fallen out
But no one else was about
So quickly took the cache
To the car in a dash
Then replaced it with care
In order to avoid muggles' stare

On the way to Palmerston North so quickly stopped for this one. Need to replace carefully. TFTC

Write a poem ss girl said
As if I have one in my head
but I don’t know what I should say
I’d hate to give the game away
I stopped the car where the GPS said
Took a look and scratched my head
Not so quick but luckily
There was no one around to see
I checked the log for information
Had a little inspiration
Checked once more a little bolder
Soon I found it in its holder
It looks a safe spot here to me
And so I left a bear TB

There were not many people around today.I am afraid I am not a poet.Thanks.

Easy find, but had major problems putting it back, after a group of nosey scooter-riding kids showed up and just wouldnt leave...ha ha. Took ages, but eventually saw the opportunity, got it back from whence it came...ahh...parting was such sweet sorrow...NOT.

O Cacheo, Cacheo, wherefore art thou?
To search this open spot we struggled,
We see a place you might have been,
Are you lost, or stolen . . . muggled!

But wait, my fellow caching friends
Perchance we should look again,
The prize is there within our grasp,
Seek the cache above the cairn.

Fun to find Smile

A quick find on the way into Levin for lunch today. Cache was completely uncovered, I have replaced it carefully and used a few stones that will hopefully keep it concealed a little better. Signed log, TFTC.

Was in Levin for work and had arrived here a bit early for my appointments, after cleaning up a few caches in the area I went and had a couple of meetings and then it was time to head on my way north again. Taking my usual route to Palmerston North I noticed that there was another cache on my route and thought that it would be a real shame not to grab this cache. I was able to park virtually right on top of GZ and used my car to shield me from any prying eyes that were across the road. As I got out of the car I spotted there cache and it only took me a few seconds to retrieve an sign it before returning it back to its hiding spot, I did try and hide it a bit better and then I was on my way north again. Thanks for placing a cache here, now I know why the cache is named so and it is great to see that there is a cache place in such a important location, TFTC TNLNSL (4032)

Found with Kiwi Mico. Colour of cache container stands out and could see it as we approached. It's a good spot but very visible to passing muggles. Tried to hide it better before leaving. SL TFTC.
 
23-Jan-12
another cacher was parked up next to GZ when we arrived. They finished signing & then left us to sign, but it did leave us a little open to prying eyes when they had driven off. Left a pet rock - a gerbil. TFTC
