Easy park and grab. Container broken and a bit wet

Found it on a lovely sunny day thank you kindly for placing this one.

Lid is indeed broken.

I decided to go on a little tiki tour along the lake. Quick find, TFTC!!

It was broken but not bad thanks for the tomato sauce found with JD

Sorry, lid of container broken by accident today. We wrapped all in a plastic bag as we had nothing else as replacement. Material of the container is aged and brittle, new one is required. Found-log later!Oliver+Gabi

Now in Covid19 Level 2 so activity can continue.

Disabled while we are all supposed to be in "lockdown"

Found it on App accidentally, stopped to look at the boats, a random road turndown.

Finally managed to remember to stop on the way past. First time I tried a quick look, but the car GPS wasn't accurate enough, and after a quick look at the obvious hiding spot, I checked the clue, and realised there were a few hint items in the vicinity. So we stopped again on the way back from our paddle , and with the real GPS, it was a quick find. The box was out in the open, so I tried to cover it a bit better. TFTC.

This was a must do for us because we are staying 5 days in Quail Rest.
Thank you for putting us the cache directly for the door.
The cache is in a good condition!

A quick find while Mr eve07 waited in the boat. This cache had been left in the open so replaced stone over cache. TFTC

We are on our summer holiday driving around the South Island with no real idea of where we will end up each day. We are often drawn to an area that has the potential to give us a few geocaching smilies and somewhere we have not spent time exploring before. In some cases we are revisiting placed that we have been before but liked so much we are going there again.
We thought we would go for a drive to see what is further down this road, what a shocking road it is, we were shaken and rattled as we went over the corrugations. So many people camping along this dusty stretch of lakeside.
The cache was a quick find, signed the log and returned it as we found it.
Thanks for placing this cache and thank you for the smiley

Out geocaching with Tufty (taking a break from watching the Otago Rowing Champs at Lake Ruataniwha). We made this the first stop of the day. No problem here, the specific hint made for a quick find. TFTC JemNZ and Sargenz.

I had parked up at The Club in Twizel mainly to go and watch the Otago Rowing Champs on the Saturday but decided to team up with BaldEd to sign off a few caches today.

This was a nice drive down the Ohau Canal.

Cheers for the cache.

We found a number of caches on this trip - thanks to all the hiders for there hides. Trying to get these all logged.

TFTC

Nice drive. TFTC

Swung by just before Xmas, nice to see everyone out camping by the lake enjoying their holidays. Tftc

Found it just before muggles come by. Tftc

A very large boat named "Serenity Now" was towed past - seemed ironic.

Back up at the canals chasing the big one. no luck so far so time to grab the last 4 in the area that have been bugging me for a while.
Wasn't parked in the best place so a mad dash to get this one tftc

In Twizel for the long weekend for a get together with friends. Time for a bit of a drive/bike around the place to find a few smileys.

Picked upthe Dragon TB, and will move it on. A nice quick find cheers.

Thanks to the CO's for the hides. Cheers.

Beautiful day for a drive out here with two girlfriends. They are both muggles but they humour me.

Found with Polargirl after we got bored of fishing

Quick find while on a fishing trip. TFTC

Great booty in this one!

My 200th find Picked this up while staying at Fallstone camp during Easter. Dropped off "Explore the World" TB

Nice Place! TFTC!

Totara Peak Turnoff (South Canterbury) was transferred from JemNZ to user sargenz

Having grabbed a FTF further along the road decided to make a quick stop and grab this cache too.
Thanks for the cache.

Would be a shame not to grab this cache as we went past. Thanks for the hide.

Very fast find by Mum, Dad had hardly turned the car around when she had the job done.
Thanks for the cache, a nice bonus after a long drive to grab a near by first to find.

As you might have guessed from my name I link Minecraft, so identifying the hint object was easy. Only two in the area so a quick find.
Thanks for the cache.

Awesome drive around Totara Peak road

The gravel road would be best described as a track today as I ventured down I saw the grader hopefully rectifying this.
Thanks

Found easily, all good inside.
Cheers and thanks,
S.t.

Quick bike ride from the campground. TFTC

But of a long diversion down to this one this evening. A lot of campers set up near the salmon farm. TFTC

A quick easy find, a long way off the beaten track. TFTC

Nice easy find today. TFTC

Heading to benmore view to catch up with a mates family,last one for the day,TFTC

gave up on fishing for a while and went for a scenic drive. So beautiful and a great spot for a cache. If only more ventured that far down.

Lovely camping area will have to return when the weather is betterTfTC

Last cache for the day, and it is starting to rain again.-Bitsprayer

The hint item was showing good autumn colour.
+ a marble, - nothing.

I noticed this one published a while ago and began watching it when we decided on a trip to the area for this weekend. I never expected it to go without a find until today. We approached the log book with trepidation and were pleased to find an empty log book. It was a beautiful day and a beautiful drive to the cache. I cant believe I havent been out this way before. Thank you for taking us out here! Joint FTF. Cheers for the cache, JemNZ.
