Trust the GPS and you will be rewarded tough hint when you can't see it duet to the natural camo ..just happy to sign off this one ..thanks for the random hide and introducing me to a new trail

We have circumnavigated around this cache several times, but today, we were determined to get here. The wind was fresher than I expected, so I froze on the walk here. Round and around, but of course it was exactly where the hint said it would be! Thanks for bringing us here

Was getting frustrated but found it yay

Hard to see when sprayed over but found close to track

Didn't take too long to find. Had an altercation with a tail gaiter but no worries.

A nice stretch of the legs to get to this one. Didnt take long to find this well hidden cache. Tftc

Little difficult to find when the surrounding grass is waist high

tftc

Cool

Quick find. TFTC

Great find, 6 year old found really well

TFTC!

Cool easy

Really neat hiding spot

Found it with my friend and his dad really good place

Took the dogs for a walk to find this one. Nice open walkway. Thanks for the hide.

Bit of a struggle to find but got there in the end TFtc

Found on our walk out to Kinleith

That was a bit of a Mish but we found it

On a trip to the south Waikato with KGD. The weather was great and so was the company.
No trains here to day. A peaceful ride tftc

Great hunt xo took us a little longer than expected but still fun ️ thank you xo

Found whilst traveling north with ABCDF4, quick walk down the track. TFTC.

Nice wee walk on our way home from Taupo
Still nice and dry and a quick find

Quick find while out with geo-buddy skibow1. We needed a walk after doing a run / walk event at the mountain biking park.

941 After event with Daffynz

Great lil hunt for this one!

Found it

Found it!

Thank you. First time going to find one with my son and didn’t realise we needed a pen lol. Will be back to write our names ️

Nice

Cheers. Found a travel bug as well.

Nice little walk to the last available cache in Tok for me. Day 10 of a 10 day streak needed for a challenge, so glad it was here or I was driving south. Great hide. For furture finders ignore Google maps and stick to the cycle way entrance. TFTC.

We cannot go in through any access points at all. All the gates shut and road blocked off.

Nice! We took the wrong road and had to climb some fences. This Geocaching might get me arrested one day lol

Stopped for a walk to GZ for a quick find on my way home from yesterdays mega. Thanks for the cache

Such an awesome experience, our very first attempt and we finally managed to find it! Can't wait to find many more

Easy find
.

My 10year old found it we left something behind also

Thanks!

Found it

Hard to find but we found

Location jumps a bit

Found thanks to the hint! My first geocache find

Found!! Awesome one this one! Found travel bug, and it’s on the move

Nice spot thanks

Wanted to get this one today but quickly realised we needed more time to achieve the find hopefully next time we ate in the area

Container was a little small for a TB hotel so upgraded it and transferred the logbook. Took the small pill bottle with me. Hope that's okay. No sign of the TB that's supposed to be in the cache but dropped a different one in anyway. TFTC.

First time walking along the cycling path in the 14 months I've lived here!
Many thanks

Have been wanting to pick up this cache for some time and today was the day. Ryan offered to run along to it as he is much faster than mum. No problems with the cache. Thanks

Heading back to Wellington from the Waikato today with some time for some caching - yay! A pleasant walk along the cycleway and a fairly quick find. Unfortunately someone seems to have pilfered the original cache container - the log in its pill bottle along with a pen and a small plastic toy are just sitting on the ground inside the sheltering object at GZ. The log is in good condition though - signed it and was on my way. TFTC!

Had cycled along the track before, never realising a cache was along it. Tftc

Good to be back on the true back country NZ roads. Heading north at end of trip. Good views along this road. TFTC

Thanks for the find

THTF one and only geocache I got while in New Zealand

Parked the car up by the rail road... the car GPS wanted me to go down the road but it's a bit hard to do that with big concrete blocks in the way! Walked along the cycleway which was lovely this morning. Got to GZ without any hassles... saw the streetlight and knew I had to be in the right place and then it was time to look for the hint item... oh there it is! Found the cache... signed the log... and was back on my way in no time. Thanks for the walk and the cache

A good walk to find

trip up north to grab some caches, great weather and some great hides, thanks for the placement - seems to have shrunk no longer fits TBs just a pill container, track all nice and quite today

Found the new container at the GZ and thank you feet first for replacing it for the CO. Parked by the railway crossing and walked along the path and had a freight train pass us. Thanks CO's for placing the cache there

Found the remains of the cache, a pen and a swap. Placed a new log in small container not room for swaps. Needs checking.

Please check cache as had to replace with small container and temporary log.

This needs maintained as someone has wrecked the cache which sucks

Thanks

Shorter access via private road

2969 Parked the motor home and jumped on the bicycle and rode down to this one. Felt strange riding along on a tarseal roadway? that was for only bikes and walkers. Circled the obvious but could not see anything that looked remotely like a cache or the hint. Walked a little further down the cycle track and spotted the hint. All quiet at GZ today. No trains. No cyclist and no muggles. This was the last for the day but managed to clear the Kinleith area of caches.

this was my geocaching buddys first cache he ever found so brought me back to it. nice that its a decent size one. TFTC

Quick easy find due to good coordinates. Nice big cache TFTC

3rd time lucky, finally found it, was a good walk also

Was a bit of a Mish to find but got there in the end

I didn't have a map to see where the other entrance was, so I just walked the longer distance. AT GZ, I circled a few times before I spotted the hiding spot. TFTC.

Found on the trip home from the mega in Turangi.
Like many others I elected to drive up a private road to get to within 600m of the cache.
TFTC

Well that was frustrating. Came in off the shorter end. Knew what i was looking for but circled for ages. Then I spot it. That is well hidden. No tbs. Left some toys. Lol someone left a condom. tftc

Good exercise

Easy find in the dark

Lovely walk, great find

Had fun trying to access this cache and decided it was worth risking driving up a 'private' road just so we could find it.
Left a travel bUG.

Took a bit of time to find in the dark but sooo much fun

Was a good walk in the dark with my best friend karmel414. Found eventually when looking in the right place
Tftc

Great cache tftc

I think the cammo has come off

Found it thanks to the hint and a little bit searching TFTC

Geo cache

First one!

Easy find with Amber,Desmond & Cheryl

Hi. I am out with Cube-It and did not find it. Was really excited about finding it this because it's my first time but thoroughly enjoyed the walk

Out with JKupa on her first cashe and we didn't find it. Nice walk though. Using smart phones may not be too accurate. Will try again another day.

Found

Perfect coordinates. Thank you.

Mr P and I arrived at the northern end of the road-which-isn't and decided it was too hot for a long walk, drove around to the southern end - and decided we could do this. We have a lovely walk in the country, saw no one, lots of tiny trees, no trains... and more cache. Happiness. T4tc

Got 'fouled' on this one.
At one end of the access road there is a sign stating that this is a 'Private Road use by Permit Only'. Not to be deterred I went the long way round and came at it from the Campbell Road end. No go - the road is blocked by large purposely placed concrete barrier blocks.
I gave up at that point.

I was even Muggled by a train. Man those trains are big. Tftc

We found our way to not too far away and walked to GZ. What an amazing track that Tokoroa has had all this time! They must be able to capitalise on the current insatiable appetite for bike trails! We were caching later at the end of the trail where there is a great park for picnics etc. such an asset.
Oh yes, and thanks for the good sized cache and for showing this to us.

Nice find! Was amazed to discover this track. Might have to bike the length of it next week. Cheers

found with lukefrog

Out and about with HKCB for a day's caching: we left Hamilton bright & early, planning to get to Rotorua via Tokoroa with more than a few stops along the way ... hoping for lots of caches & a few showers but, with torrential rain all morning & a duo of totally soaked cachers by the time we reached here, we were keen to get the caching car as close as possible. It was never going to be a park'n'grab however so time for another quick dash along the path in the rain. Thanks for placing this cache bruce32

Out for a full days caching with Kiwis69. The weather forecast wasn't the best, and we hoped we could make the finds between the gaps in the showers. Unfortunately most of the morning there were very little gaps and we spent a lot of time in the rain, shame we couldn't add "may require wading/swimming" attributes to the caches. Sun had come out by the afternoon which allowed us to dry out. Thanks everyone for the placements.

Tried to get as close as possible to this cache to avoid a long walk in the rain. With a bit of googling we worked out the closest place we could park the car. TFTC.

Found it good clue
