Go Glenview! (Waikato) Hamilton, North Island, New Zealand
By kiwis69 on 17-May-12. Waypoint GC3K657

Checked after recent DNFs & has been muggled again; will try another position

Have looked high and low with no luck yet. Will try again soon.

Three of us had a good hunt in the obvious area while no-one was around, there was some rubbish and broken glass as previous logs have mentioned but no sign of a cache. The co-ords seemed to be leading us to the grass nearby.

First geocache experience! Lots of fun.

nice easy find, TFTC

Yay although co rds seem a bit off

Nice spot Tftc

Another busy spot but snuck in & got this one #140. TFTC

TFTC cute little find

Wow that was crazy hard to find, I feel like it was luck made me stumble upon it

Thanks for the cache

Replacement cache in place; happy seeking

Spent a while looking for this but it seems to no longer be here?

Disabling til we have a chance to check

Looks like muggles have been here it's disappeared

Had a good look but the rain was coming, plus getting suspicious looks from a muggle made us decide to come back another day

Had a look around in the most likely places, but no luck for me. Thanks

A lot of people about making us feel very conspicuous.Had what we thought was a reasonable look but with no joy.

me and my dad found Go Glenview while my little brother was playing soccer

Cheers

Great cache location youngest person on the graham Whanau team located this

There was a family of muggles playing on the nearby swings so only gave the GZ a very quick search.

Wahoo! A first find for our little family. The kids were excited to make a small trade. Thanks.

Had to wait for the mugglets to leave then found it.

Looked for ages

I've had a hunt for this a few times but there are so many places it could be and I don't feel comfortable searching here for too long.

Plenty of muggles and broken glass around this site today, so didn't spend long looking. Maybe another day?

Parked at Te Wananga today, to walk around some local caches, quite a trek, got back to the car just before the rain started. Cobwebs galore today, but a nice easy find.

Took a while then just saw its head poping out great hide

New park to see. No log so signed sticker sheet. Tftc

Easy find, contents pretty wet...TFTC

Took ages to find this one whilst out caching with Dashtastic. I even had a quick rummage in the hiding place but didn't manage to find it first time. Kudos for the hiding place

Found it !! Well hidden !! w00t !!

Cold day and no muggles around. So a quick easy find for us today. Thanks.

Not-so-quick find in the likely spot, found in between passing muggles. TFTC

I spent about 5 minutes looking in all the wrong places, then my wife strolled over and had the cache in hand in a matter of seconds [:o)]. Neat hiding spot. TFTC

Tricky little hide. My first thoughts were wrong, so struggles a bit here. Obviously found eventually. Thanks.

On the hunt for my 1200th cache find today. No strategy or plan... Just driving and picking off caches as I go.

Saturday Cricket was in full swing. Was trying to search without being too obvious. Fortunately, the dog was very playful. A stick tossed here and there gave me an excuse to be around ground zone without looking suspicious. TFTC.

I wish all caches had as much shielding from muggles as this one! GPS went a bit haywire under the big trees, told me GZ was the road I'd just parked on...thank goodness we human beings have our common sense too! I wandered to the likely location, and the GPS regained its senses just as I spotted a little something... Loved the hiding place! Picked up turtle TB as I'm caching around a lake in a couple of days, and turtles like lakes! TFTC!

Out for a quick mission by myself. Love the log book!
TFTC:-)

Nice hide. Dropped off turtle.

A nice hide, I seemed to be concealed from all kinds of muggle activity, except for coming and going. TFTC

Edit: I forgot to bring the pen from my car, so I took a photo as proof instead

Took a bit of searching to locate this one and got dreached from the wet foliage in the effort however cache nice and dry TFTC.

Cool hiding place! Impressive soccer score too! Tftf

Used my eyes and soon spotted it. SL TFTC

Found on our trip home from the snow - with a detour to CANZ Matawatu & Taranaki...
This was the last stretch of our journey. We camped out in New Plymouth, and then cached our way back to Auckland today.

Well... after the adventure we had at the nearby cache, of 'Not a Native Tree', it was good to have a relatively less intense filled cache... still thinking the swot team may be on our backs, we quickly dived out of view into the bushes, and then tried to find the cache.

I actually did end up pulling something out at first that I thought was the cache... luckily before I opened it, I realised it was actually a wrapped up diaper... gone stale and everything... gross!!

And so I was glad to see the actual cache not long after... haha.

TFTC!!

Found with Sonia26642 on our way back to Auckland with a slight detour.
This one took a while to find but after a while managed to spot it.
TFTC

This one had me scratched, windblown and baffled...was making a last circuit before going and there it was. tftc

Nice easy find by my 10 year old daughter who happens to play soccer at this park

TFTC. Kids played soccer here. Spent many hours here while they practised.

Took a while, but eventually found it. Nice little spot.

Nice clean area. Tftc

Got a few scratches but found it!

Returned to release the gorgeous butterfly. TFTC

A quick find after waiting for some muggles to leave.

thanks

Out for our daily walk, we thought we'd combine it with a hunt for a few locals as it is Friday. Found quite readily after reading the notes more carefully. The big mower tractor had passed us as we were walking there, but luckily he was on the other side of the park- initially! I was caught hiding behind the bushes as he swept round and round close by, but he finally finished and we made a quick exit. Left a few trades.

Scrambled in, under and around the bushes for 20 minutes before admitting defeat.

Nicely tucked inside out of the weather. TFTC

Another miracle of nature providing a place to hide a cache. Some kids with Dad having fun on the nearby swings, good to see so many people out enjoying this day of sunshine. TFTC

crawling in bushes and playing on swings is all good fun but found it in the end. tftc

Finally found this after a thorough search. Had a DOH! moment when we spotted this as we had both searched this area a number of times over our two visits.

In the dark this left several options but jillopy's caching common sense prevailed and the grab was made in phone light. TFTC!

7.30am. Nice easy find.
Thank you. David.

Quick find. Some muggles about but all good

No one around so able to have a quick find.

Nice and quiet on this beautiful day - nice easy find - caught out by a little dog TFTC

Ooooh first gc in nz!!

To many muggles around. Back another day.

9337… Uncovered this one while performing some much needed C.I.T.O.ing nearby. Nice hide, TFTC.

GZ seemed out on the grass area, and hint suggested under the building. Not a good place to search where first logic prevails due to much broken glass.
Eliminated the obvious, then moved onto vegetation. A good hide, but the hint led us to the wrong spot. Found within 1m of the WP, considering the degree of error often by buildings, is as about as accurate as you could possibly get.
Future hunter can be assured that the holes under the building will not reveal the cache!
Left Koala TB recently picked up in Tasmania

FINALLY got this one. About our 4th attempt after there being so many muggles around the first three times!

Took 3 goes to find this one, 1st go area was swarming with muggles, 2nd go we spent 20 mins looking in all the wrong places, suspect we saw a pair of cachers arriving and playing on the see saw right as we were leaving, on the 3rd go we had some info from PAF (Thanks) and it was in the only obvious area we hadent looked.

+TB -TB

No muggle children around so a quick grab

Finally got it. For some reason i had a pre conceived idea that it was going to be larger than it was! ! This happens ocassionally. Nice hide too.

As Zorgon reported on another cache thats new and couldn't find well I will have to confess I looked for 20 + mins this morning and couldn't find it., A lady turned up at the building so time for me to bail out I think.
Needs a Cito as I found a lot of rubbish here and very sharp leaves. Ouchies!!!!

This came out while over in Rotorua yesterday so thought I had better make the find today so that I didn't let down the side, Ended up being a simple find and all quiet here today, TFTC

Had me on my hands and knees searching for this one. Should of checked the obvious places first, it would of been easier. Great hide 21 out of 10. TFTC.

tftc!

This is only 400 metres from home and I didn't have a gps at home so looked at google map and headed off to gz and got there just as Zorgon is getting his hands on it TFTC

Saw a some caches being published and decided not to head out but when this Glenview one popped up i could't resist.
Arrived to find Cosclan and Mattyswift already on site. Managed to find after hunting a few red herrings. Boges arrived just in time to sign the log. Nice to catch up with you all.
Thanks for the cache!

Just 5 minutes down the road from home and I am away for the weekend. C'est la vie.

Was just pottering around at home and noticed this pop up and less than a 1km from home so had to come down for a look with Mattyswift..
We were first on the scene but had to wait for Zorgon to arrive with his keener spotting skills.
TFTC

It started to rain as I got near GZ and the GPS had me going round in circles getting soaked! Finally managed to find the nicely hidden cache. Thanks very much kiwis69

Dam you zorgon for beating me.
