Difficult to get an accurate fix under the roof but I think this may be suffering from cache creep. Replaced as accurately as I could. TFTC.
Found after abit of looking. But the rite angle it’s easy . The hardest part was removing the log paper to sign which needs attention . Thanks
This is embarrassing - now we're definitely going blind - nice area to search - but we couldn't find the said object.
Back today armed with my tweezers to sign this log!! This was a nifty little hide, I have actually seen these online before and was tempted to buy it, so it was cool to see one in use! Hadn't been found in a few months which showed with the many layers of spider webs /cob webs hiding it. Thanks for the cache!
On my way home from work I decided to take a caching break, and as it was sunny a short walk along the river too. This cache stumped me for a while - I hunted and hunted, and started wondering about pulling out the flora, and hunted some more, and wondered about digging stuff up, and hunted some more, and finally finally! I spotted something slightly strange. Being weary of wasps after my encounter last month while out caching, I approached the spot carefully, also while wearily glancing about to make sure no muggles were running by. At last the cache was in my hand! yippee! But it then took me just ask long to work out how to get the log out! this not being a planned caching trip - I had no tools with me! I figured you wouldn't appreciate me destroying the cache to get the log out, I finally worked out how to use some leverage.
So yay - cache signed, and another adventure over. Time to head home and cook some dinner. That has left me famished!

I'm not sure how I ended up getting that because I certainly wasn't expecting it there based on the previous logs. Good hiding. TFTC
Over to do a recce for our Tauranga cycling group. Great day for it ! Had to smile when we found the cache. Golfers busy but well out of the way. Cache all good. TFTC
Nice hide we replace the whole Log sheet just 2 balls flying around today.Nice quick fine before the rain came down thanks
On a secret caching mission in Hamilton in search of 10+ favourite point caches, this was the first of them, and will secure me my prize! I have a similar hide in Napier.. Great camo for the unsuspecting. TFTC
Log soaking wet. I could have replaced it but feel it needs somehow waterproofing.
Time for one or two more caches before heading back to Tauranga.
Read up about this one last night before heading over the hill and glad I had time for it.
A nice stroll down to GZ but then I had to wait for a family of muggles to pass. One lady commented on my Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers shirt, and it wasn't complimentary. Bitch.
Once the rude family had left I made a quick find. The new log is quite damp I'm afraid. Managed to sign my name though.
And no flying balls hit me either.
Thanks Cats&Dragons

Great cache. Well placed. Had to take it with us for a walk to try & get log out as some muggles turned up. As it was, log was soggy & unable to be written on. All other logs barely able to be read as ink has run. We didn't have our cache bag with us, so couldn't replace it. Dropped cache back to same location on our way back. TFTC!
Interesting hide!
Took a little while but found with Gonna Cache Em All an the young one.

Found while out with All About that Cache. Signed with initials as AATC and GCEA. Tftc.
Found while walking (and caching) the lenght of the river... Starting from te totara panorama
As some crazy fellows decided to do some paintball close by Vistra and I decided to use the valuable time for some geocaching in town. Searched for a while when Vistra finally scouted the geocache from the right angle. TFTC
Teamed up with alpenmilch80 this morning to hunt for a few caches around Hamilton before attending an event this afternoon. This took a little bit of hunting, till I spotted it when standing at just the right angle! Nice hide, TFTC!

Another adventure with Gap (of Fap and Gap). We set off from home with a half-baked plan to blitz some caches in Waihi, but quickly realised there was pie to be had in Hamilton... It's Pi Day today...
I've been waiting to find one of these, but was disappointed to find it fading in the open weather. What a great place for a cache hide... As an aside, I laughed when Gap pointed to the suggestion box hanging in the tree. Do you have to be a giant to post ideas into that box? TFTC.

12.45pm - What a clever container, just the sort of thing that might be put in this location. SLTFTC
We have now moved out of the area so will be giving this cache up for adoption. I hope many other people will enjoy it in the future. Thanks, Brennaz.
Had heard of this type of cache but first time experiencing it. GC partner when feeling around said he had just encountered something and bells went off in my mnd. TFTC
Yay! Second time lucky! Well it helped to read all the logs.
Log almost needs replaced. Great first cache. TFTC.

I have hit my ball over the top of this cache many times but this is the first time I have been underneath. Very nice hide. Lucky there was no-one around as it took me a little while to locate. Thanks very much Brennaz
Cool cache thanks! The log sheet could probably be renewed as it is a bit worn but there are a few spaces left. Thanks Brennaz; you guys are the best!
This is an excellent urban cache. A favourite from me!
The log is long overdue for a replace. Maybe I can get out here again soon to do it.

We did a 4 hour River Walk, great views and some lovely caches. This one was not easy to find, but after searching a while we found that funny cache. Thanks and greetings from Germany
Found the cache, a very innovative place, hope I can be as creative for my first cache.
899, I was here yesterday and spent a while hunting for this. I was so thinking the wrong things to look for. Was not until I went with my gut instint and had the cache. Awesome hide will be getting added to my favorites TFTC.
Found it fast but we can imagine it being a tough one for some people to find and swallow. A new log is needed as current one is full.
thanks.
thanks.
Parked the campervan and went for a river walk. Simple and so great camo. Thanks for a great urban camo
It was a nice sunny morning so we decided to bike to here. It took all of 10 seconds to find the cache.
Another lovely Waikato spring day. Out for a walk and scoot along the river walkway. Took us awhile and had looked past it twice before working it out. Worth a favourite vote. TFTC
I had to keep going past the cache the first time, as there was someone behind me. I carried on and found the 'River Walk' cache and returned to find this one without much difficulty. The main issue with these nanos is getting the log back inside. Thanks for the cache.
Up visiting from Nelson. Wandered out for our "cache for the day" this morning. The golf course looked most inviting. Nice hide. Great first hide, therefore worth a favourite from us.

As psychrn and I had the day off it was time to attack some city caches. Got this one tftc
FORE once my GPS was spot on straight away. Second place I put my hand. For a spider phobic person some hides are quite challenging. (what was that I just touched) No it's ok just the thing I was looking for. TFTC
As luck would have it the first place I put my hand came up trumps - if only they were all that easy. No muggles at the end of the day so quickly signed and returned. tftc
11750… Didn't come unstuck looking for the Cool Camo, logsheet was a bit damp but we still managed to attach our signature to it, a busy day for the locals to practice their driving skills, TFTC.
On the 3rd visit to the area, this time without the husband and kids I located this sticky cache only to discover the husband had spotted it on the previous visit and hadn't even considered touching it .
Master 10 was excited by this so will award a favourite point because it appealed to his sense of humour. Amazingly he also knew why the cache was named as such. TFTC
No one about on this slightly damp day in Hamilton. Cache soon spotted and replaced with care. Thanks
Finally got around to doing this one. Took some brand New cachers out for a night mission. Great fun. Great hide. They Will be back for more i think
