This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
Think something has gone wrong with this one as hasn't been found since December 16
Recent gardening in the area may have disturbed cache ... looked for a long while but DNF
New to geocaching but we searched for ages and did not find it. We searched quite long. No cigar. Going to return to see if we can find it again. 
Didn't find though did find a pink scrunchie lying on ground so maybe Not there or I could just be blind. By this time the gps was going haywire.
Couldn't find this one. Hints and activity wouldn't load and we did find that the gps was a bit inaccurate, like it said in the description. Will try again another day.
Cache number 174. A very late log because I have been very busy. Nice easy find. TFTC
Tired or blind I.don't know which. Despite the day and hour corner is busy and felt very conspicuous. No luck for me and had to move on to keep the streak alive.
Quick grab @ busy area. Wouldn't recommend coming at the time I did, although people may be too busy with home commute to notice my shoe tying and fake texting and Pokémon hunting. Log needs pen, so couldn't sign. I'll pop one back in some time in the next few weeks. Pink tennis shoes (as per theme) accompany my legs in work tights and dress. Very fetching! (not) TFTC
easy find. it was quite out in the open. tried to cover it a bit better. thanks or the box, rolofant
Hehe I've got to start carrying a pen on me Foiled at jellie park but not so here.
Found after scratching around the trees I realized I was making this a lot harder than it was.
Holidays in New Zealand! We have been looking forward to them for years. We had lots of time to prepare ourselves for a great trip. As geocachers, we also picked out a number of great caches. Armed with a "to-do list" and accidental encounters we were lucky to log many caches. Thank you for placing them and keeping the game go on!
Day 28/28: Christchurch

Nice find on the way to the airport after a week in Christchurch helping my elderly parents out. Good spot here, TFTC 
Came down to Christchurch for the 2015 MEGA with a group of caching buddies for the weekend. My first MEGA, and it was fantastic- loved every minute, the caching, the events, meeting other like-minded crazies (sorry, I mean cachers!!!). Our group found 283 caches throughout the course of the of the weekend, so apologies for the cut and paste logs- but it's going to take me hours to log them all!!!! All logs were signed as SEAC (South East Auckland Crew), to reflect our home caching base!
HUGE thanks to all involved in putting on the MEGA event, and also to all of the Chch CO's for the effort gone to in their hides- we found some awesome caches, including fantastic hides, and cleverly done camo.... well done Christchurch, you're an awesome bunch!
Third day today, our mission being to find as many different kind of caches we could. This one was a quick stop on the way to another..... TFTC!!!

Day three of the ChCh Mega weekend and today's goal was to make finds on as many different cache types in 24hrs... this was another type for the day.
This one was for the ladies who insisted we find this one, and I was not going to argue...
Signed as 'SEAC' South East Auckland Crew to save logbook space and time.

Part of the “South East Auckland Crew” here for the Christchurch Mega. All logs done as “SEAC”. Sorry for the Generic logs…but when logging 200 in a day it can be a bit much. But thank you so much for placing all these awesome caches
Third day of our mega trip and today was all about the different types of caches.

Nicely hidden. Easy to find out of view from the traffic. Finally logging my Mega caches. Found with Haydnseek and Stardust.
As a small party we were touring around this quadrant of town looking for a variety of caches and we were very lucky as we had very few DNFs today and quite a collection of differing types of caches.
Thank you for the cache and another smiley face.

Found this cache today as part of a challenge to find two caches more than 2,500km apart in different time zones. We found the first of the two in Currumbin, Queensland, Australia, and this one in Christchurch, New Zealand, after we'd picked up our hire car after the flight. Many thanks Justmeg2 for the cache. It was found in good condition.
[green] My first day in Christchurch, having arrived last night. Normally I would head out each day and cache out a suburb, and so by the end of two weeks pretty much have cached out the city. But it is all a green field! I could not decide which way to go. So in the end I let the GPS decide. This is the first time I have cached in a city restricting myself to Garmin's Get Next Closest and seeing where it lead me. I started in the middle of town at the square and ended up at Riccarton Racecourse, with a trail of 50 little smileys behind me.
Made a wee detour to grab this on our way back to the car after visiting Jellie Park. A quick and easy find, tftc!
Found near the end of a three hour bike journey by night around the burbs north and west of the city. Grabbed a TB to take up to Wellington. TFTC
i had a spare 20 minutes this morning before going to university so i decided to find this cache. walking in the rain wasn't nice but i found the cache. had to be stealth due to it being a main road. however, logbook was signed and i continued on my journey. thank you.
Down south this week for some time with our local rep for some training (and after a couple of caches which I have targeted as in need for some special attention to meet the challenge that is the DGsc Challenge 
further North. 
along with Zorgon's Virtual Challenge.
It has been a mission to get here as time is always the curse for these out of town stays, and also the weather had to play its part (which it did) in the adventure.
Up early this morning to grab a couple before beginning the day. Nice and heavy frost on the ground which made things that little bit more cold
So again thank you for the FUN of the hunt
