Didn't realise this park/playground was here lol. Unfortunately couldn't locate cache.
Found on holiday. Got my son keen. Needed new log so left some paper. Left a small diamond. Thanks
In town for a “Mega” weekend of caching. I joined up with Yeetrees and gonefishing to form Team YGB. I really enjoyed exploring the country roads of Canterbury. We travelled a fair few Kilometres in the 4 days we were here, and had a great time, with a lot of laughs along the way. Good weather, and good company. It doesn’t get much better than that does it.
Monday. Day Four, Area 4. Today we ventured north up towards Amberley. A change of scene from the long straight roads on the plains that we had experienced in the previous days. We then headed back to Pegasus and Rangiora to round out the day with a bit of urban caching.
Thanks to all the CO’s for all the caches we found.
Cheers and TFTC

Found during the Mega weekend on bit of a tiki-tour around the Canterbury back blocks. Great weather, great caches, great fun! Thanks to all the cache owners for putting out and maintaining caches for us to find. All in all, a fun road trip with Boxhill and Yeetrees, we signed many of the logsheets as YGB to save both time and logsheet spaces.

good cache. dnf on the first day then came the next and found it in 10 seconds
Managed to find it without the people at the nearby playground noticing me.
I had some spare time between work commitments so decided to head off and find a few caches. Found this one in the second place I checked. TFTC, Biggles.
Barking dog next door wasn't keen for us to linger, but it took a few minutes to get the right spot. Found with BBJ25 on a wee raid to Rangiora this morning. TFTC
Never knew this park was here, remember when it was paddocks and dirt hills! Tftc
Grabbing a few caches before heading home. Nice quick find for Chelzea as I watched the people in the park who, luckily were intent on their games. TFTC
Muggles up in a tree - however found the cahce without them being interested in what we were doing. Thanks
Found easily today after a Dnf ages ago. Not sure why the high difficulty rating. Tftc
On a night raid with TG and we wanted to knock off the new caches in the area before we headed out to the Tinkers to do a bit of checking and maintainace. We had an exciting evening, it was balmy out, lots of caches, poked our noses into to some fabulous spots, we were first on scene for a significant accident, thank God the dude walked out the the wreck unscathed. Crazy full moon and home to bed just before midnight.
This was one of the stops along the way. Quick find at GZ.
Thanks for the cache.

A quick find after returning to the car for the hint. Coords not quite good enough today - or maybe we were just getting tired. Thanks for the cache [purple]Our cache find: #3023[/purple] | [green]Cache of the Day: 22/46[/green] | [blue]Cache of our trip: 22/52[/blue]
On holiday from WA visiting family in Rangiora, took time out for a spot of my favourite pastime. Thanks for the cache. Signed log.
Made it a quick find due to a loudly barking dog alerting the world of out presence. Tftc
Took longer than it should have. If I'd searched round the right tree to start with I would have found it a lot sooner! TFTC.
Took adaytojess and I a bit longer than it should of.. was painfully obvious once found. Tftc
Nice seat to sit at and work out the clue while muggles were around. Interesting find as a neighbour was pumping out water to the park and there was a lot of water to negotiate. Didn't know this wee park was there. TFTC
Took a while to find this one. Simplified my search and then found easily. TFTC.
We spent more time than we should have to find this one. My GPS had coordinates a good 15 feet away for the GZ.
Once we found it, it seemed so easy, but was not quite sure which part was the bqqyl pbybherq srapr frpgvba.
Out to find a few caches around Rangiora this afternoon. Beware dog behind the fence. Starting to get hard to find a space to sign the log. TFTC!
Caching around the South Island via campervan with Wild Coin Cacher while on holiday. TFTC SL

Nice and easy found during a day in Rangiora.
The log book is full, need to put a new one.

Mum and my brother were up for a few days, and well, caching together is our family bonding!! (Luckily! Caching keeps us all happy! Hahaha ) And so I left work early and mum came over, and we headed out this way for an afternoon/early evening of caching once we managed to tackle the traffic here.
I read the hint while we were walking towards the cache so the lot of us just swarmed the GZ!! Haha. Found the cache very quickly once there, as between the 3 pairs of eyes, and only one likely hiding spot, nothing could stay hidden too long!! hehehe.
TFTC!!

Found this on our second try. The clue was a bit confusing for us. But we found it in the end!!! TFTC!!!

We started looking for this cache yesterday, but didn’t find it immediately, and had to leave as we were short of time. Today we returned, and after modifying our thinking a little, the cache was quickly found. TFTC
Had a look for about 10 minutes but couldn't seem to find it. The clue about the oddly coloured fend threw me a bit. I will be back!

Today I decided to do a run up to Rangiora and the area around it. I turned off the motorway and did a clockwise loop throught Eyreton. This was a quick park and grab. The logbook was completely full.

A bit of small talk required with passing muggles (initially suspected to be Mormons or JWs as they were a little overdressed for a Saturday morning in our opinion), but quickly found thereafter. TFTC.
Took longer than it should have because I didn't read it properly.Thanks Nathan.hunt72
