Martinborough Hot Spot - Returns (Wairarapa) Martinborough, North Island, New Zealand
By Yeetrees on 28-May-12. Waypoint GC3M4K8

Checked for the cache again today, GZ is far too hot with muggles managing to muggle the cache again so time to call it quits

That would explain it......

Found a place that fitted the clue but no cache

Hummmm... Other than pulling the garden to bits, not obvious

Drive-by for us... it was a hot spot for a road working crew having a lunch break next to the cache site.

Too many muggles so had to make a return to this today. Sadly no TB. TFTC

Challenging

Quick find

A nice evening find before dinner - really enjoyed the drive.

Quick find for Princess Emily who had the job of putting her hand under and up. Got to share these jobs . Cache safe and well. Uplifted Fireman Travel bug. TFTC

Found cache in it's new home. Dropped of a little fireman at the Martinborough Fire Station in time for tomorrows Martinborough Fair

Have moved the cache to a more safer location, hope it stays there

Moved the cache to a safer location

Pretty tough one, did find a $10 note in the windblown rubbish though!

No luck today. Next time....... Yucky GZ, full of rubbish, shrubs and dead birds.

Lucked out on this one in spite of 2 attempts. Our first failure

Quick stop on the way to Toast Martinborough and an easy find, even if the weather was not that flash.

TFTC - dropped the geocoin

cool place

We had found the first incarnation of Martinborough Hot spot, and this is a much more discrete hide, and another bonus is that it's not hidden in flax!
After examining the environs, decided we may need our walking sticks for prodding duties and by the time I got them out of the car boot, StreetWalker had found the cache, so put them back and returned to sign the log.

#4341. Lots of motorbikes in the main street, but all quiet at GZ. It looked like it might take a bit of finding, but it wasn't really covered so I spotted it without too much trouble. TFTC.

Found this morning early before kids were up. Second search but found easily this time. No travvel bugs around. TFTC

A quick and easy find today while out cleaning up a few caches in the area. TFTC

Took a few of us to find this one in the dark, might have been easier in day light but this way there was no muggles. Took gollum TB, no other traveller's in here. SL TFTC

Nice quick find by bubble13 while I was exploring other possibilities. TFTC #3828

Nice spot. Took a beautiful coin and left a lovely Gollum. Took a photo so you can see what he has been up to.

Found on the way home after a day caching 'over-the-hill' TFTC Yeetrees

Found during our 25 day holiday trip to NZ. In these days we both visited North and South island picked up some caches along the route of course.

TFTC!

Took quite a bit of searching for us today, then spotted distinctive cache container. No sign of Pike River GC, but we dropped off Australia NT GC.

Lovely church, shame to see it is also listed as ' earthquake prone'. Tftc

A clue with more specificity may have helped. Plenty of muggles at the nearby playground didn't. Spent 15 minutes searching thoroughly before I had to rescue JDSavannah from the Martinborough Wine Centre. A cache description might also help those following.

Found the last one, this one was a quick find, nice hide thanks

At first I didn't want to do this one as I thought it would put me on the wrong side but the GPS took me to the other side.

Out: TB

Cheers for the cache.

A good easy find while out and about with TuisReturn getting some of the latest skindo caches. SL TFTC

Out with tmann421 in the wairarapa and parts today tftc

See taybee log and the my girls temp members for the day [:X][:X] TFTC.

Geocaching for the day had the grils to day to help was a easy find for the taybee no Help from the girls which had a ball of a day geocaching or jr taybee on this one

#3156. Quick find.

Found during a bike ride with Done and Dusted - we took a coffee stop then rode to this one. An improved hide over the previous one

Quickly found. TFTC

A few muggles across the road to be wary of. Left a pet rock - a koala. TFTC

A better location to it's predecessor. Quick find. Left Wedding Gift TB. TFTC

It was a beautiful sunny day. TFTH

Thanks, I found it with my friend from France on my day off while working at vineyard.

Came here on a day's caching trip to the Southern Wairarapa to clean up a number of new caches that I hadn't found. Found this one quickly mid-afternoon on the way back from Cape Palliser after a coffee stop in Martinborough. This cache is a much better hide than the previous one nearby, hopefully it will last a lot longer. Signed log, TFTC!

Nice walk around

TFTC had to shuffle about, quite well hidden

I do not remember doing the previous one but thanks for this one.

Drove past here on the way to Cape Palliser today. Quick find. Did with Mycro Man

Did with CrystalFairy

LOL. Did same as last find. Downloaded the other day and couldn't find. Only updated because wanted to see other logs as last resort. Then found quite easily . TFTC.

TFTC. Having pen nightmare - no pen yesterday, no ink today! Etched log book.

no luck here today

Preeminent to Procure Hadn't noticed the co-ordinates had been updated and still had the old co-ordinates loaded which left us scratching our heads somewhat at the indicated GZ. Decided to look a bit further afield and eventually tracked it down.

Nice to see another cache here, many thanks.
