I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.
Quick side of a busy road stop. Found a trackable that is about to accompany me to Canada this evening
Took my mum out for the day starting at Cambridge. The rain wouldn't let up but a look around the information centre made me decide to head to Pirongia. Thankfully the sun appeared on our way over and after a lovely lunch we headed to the redoubt. Stopped at this one on the way back to Hamilton. TN, left a pathtag. TFTC novalightning
I was hoping this would be a nice quick find as I had left it for a day when I needed it to earn a badge. I have driven through this busy intersection many times without even noticing the sign. It was interesting to learn about the boundaries. Thanks heaps.
#272. Out on another mission today but called in here. GC in good condition despite weathered hiding place. Tftc.
Found this little cache on a trip with Vinnie from Hamilton. Great little fact around the border boundaries. Thanks for the cache.
A little caching mission to end my night. Saw this one this afternoon, and was going to grab it on the way past but five o'clock was too busy a time. Half nine much more suitable. I have been through this intersection repeatedly but never thought to check for any caches. anyway, i have now and its another one for me. Easy cache and its in good condition. TFTC.
We decided to follow our satnav's intriguing route suggestions, as we were making good time to Hamilton. This leg took us past South of the Border#1, so had to stop, back-track a bit and grab the cache. Busy roads meant all the muggles were going so fast they didn't notice us. TFTC
Manage to get a safe park and walk to the busy intersection quick sign and away TFTC
Staying with a friend in temple view and decided to look for a few caches on the way home. Thanks for the hunt!
Found it with Team FIN [janahola, kapeka, laalaa & temyllyl]
We had fun with caching few weeks here in New Zealand. Lots of geocaches and many sort of them too. We saw awesome places, weather was pretty good all the time and people were friendly and polite. Caches were pretty similar like in our home country. Of course there were some exeptions. Nice and really scenary country!

Fourth day on our geo-roadtrip in New Zealand, and caching our way towards south. Logged using our group nickname FIN with janahola, laalaa and kapeka. Driving to south and heading to Christchurch Mega event. Todays mission was to visit Ruakuri tunnels and other interesting places via some caches of coarse!
FIN (laalaa, janahola, temyllyl, kapeka) holiday in New Zealand. First we drove from Auckland to Wellington. We enjoyed the scenery.
Greetings from Finland.
Thanks for the cache.

On a geoholiday road tripping to Christchurch MEGA and around beautiful New Zealand. Our four people group (temyllyl, laalaa, kapeka and myself) from Finland used group tag FIN to log the caches.
Welcome to MEGA Finland in 5-7 august 2016!
Today we drove from Hamilton to Whanganui and stopped to some caches on the way. This was quick find. TFTC!

Quick find as I made my way to Pirongia, a beautiful drive in the late afternoon sun. TFTC novalightning, #7870
Easy find. Unfortunately the log was so wet it was like papier cache so I couldn't sign it. Tftc
as the previous logs say, log is too wet to sign, well it was more like paper pulp, took that out and replaced the log, tftc
Our first of what we hope to be many finds. Not able to log it as it as paper was water logged. Nice and easy.
Quick find but unable to sign log as its completely deteriorated in the weather! tftc
Just passing by and said I would stop. Did not know this was the boundary lines. Thanks you.
Need a new log book as the container has got wet and the paper is all mushy. Cant right on it.
Out and about for a days caching in Hamilton with Trout-fly enabled us to find 50+ finds. Trout-fly had already found this one but kindly stopped for me. The log book is completely mushed so was unable to sign but can certainly describe how it is hidden if required. May check for the CO to have a look at this one.
2.10pm - Quick easy drive by, log sheet full so have replaced with new one SLTFTC
An easy find but the loog book is wet and I had some trouble to log.
#82 and #44 in NZ.

Found on the way past, heading south after following the expressway through to Frankton. TFTC
Hooray another find. How many times have I gone past here and not known of the treasure?
Good quick find on a day when we were moving at a slow rate with locating caches. Thanks.
This cache needs to be replaced as the container is broken. Signed the log, just.
Cheers for the cache.
Cheers for the cache.
Day 3 of our Mega roadtrip to Auckland. A quick P&G and trying to sign before walking muggles approached. The cache lid is broken and will need maintenance. We put the container into a little baggie and returned it. Thanks for the cache.

A nice quick find after returning from the Pirongia craft market today. Discovered that the lid of the cache container has broken off. Was pleased to find the log in an ok condition. We had hoped to have a replacement container but discovered we didn't so I bagged the container itself since we had some glad bags to ensure the log remains on good condition. TFTC
I had a pretty good idea where to find this, so I cycled out this morning and pretended to have a rest, drink some water and played with my phone until there was nobody around. I didn't seem to arouse much suspicion. Thanks for the cache.
A nice easy find, I parked ½ meter from ground zero as the pull over bay 20m up the road has been fence off. I think it was some time ago due to it been used for abandoned cars T4TC on my 31st day
