First cache for the long weekend but no luck here. Three of us looking but could only find weird white stuff. Decided to cut our losses and get back on the road towards MEGA in Turangi.
I did not find, I suspect the area has been tampered with (if I have the right spot) some sort of filler or foam. May need checking.
As CO noted, cache wasn't in the correct place, took a bit of extracting. Now back in its rightful spot -finders PLEASE place it back exactly where you found it. No pen, see pic as record of rescue/find.
So cardiffboy here a not to all I here via a cacher emai me saying cach still at g z but higher up it hide so tweezers needed also see a hole and a bolt it in the area ( I try find and re position it soon thank boogie-o for the up date now the challeng to re get it
Ok so I find missing in action IF any cacher have a small magnetic nano and love to place here I will watch and maintain ( ask this as have non to replace ) if non offered I will shut up shop thanks all
Called here to hopefully dip trackables but couldn't locate , pretty sure it's missing in view of previous log and as I have found it previously.
A quick feel around and we soon had the cache in hand. All quiet here today. Tftc

As i was picked up just after 4am to head to the Manawatu I realised this was not going to be a dot day. This was an attempt to get 270 caches in one day. There are a couple of great circuits in the Manawatu that will help work toward this goal so thanks to the CO's that have placed them for our enjoyment.
Thanks also to my partner in geo crime and driver for the day Yetrees. Without an able driver an attempt such as this would be impracticable so thanks for enabling it.
Thanks to all the CO's for their contribution to my smilie tally.
It is forecast to be a long day geocaching, hoping to make the 270 target. To be honest I'd be pretty happy with 200, however why not go for the Emerald badge (see project-gc.com)

Luckily I had the eagle-eyed Mr with me and he is also tall! Log hard to fit back into nano and a little damp. Tftc
quick easy find thanks on my way home from a caching weekend aroha and happy caching
Stopped by today while in the area as the cache page had me quite intrigued. Unfortunately there was what looked like a hot air balloon being inflated in the park so half the population of Levin were in attendance! We will be back.....
Up in Levin for work So while I had downtime thought I would track down some caches
Wow tiny cache indeed. Easy to find when working with and experienced person. Just on dark so not many people around. Thanks
Great nano container... easy find on a lovely Levin night - Thanks card7ff*boy
Nice little hide! The hard bit was getting the logbook to fit back inside again! Tftc
thanks to all the owners of the geocaches that we found today in Levin, on our way to Otaki and in Paraparaumu. We enjoyed our journey!
TFTC and greetings from Belgium.

Working in Levin for the week and caging after work. Found this one on my way back to my motel. Nice easy find. Log is absolutely full and needs replacing. TFTC
Searched around for a little while before reading over the hints and description properly. Quick find after that TFTC. Signed as LCB and WK
#258. Good coordinates. Made the find pretty easy. Well hidden in a very busy area. Luckily noone was close to cache when we stopped nearby for lunch at Levin today. Logbook is full. Squeezed in a signature in a space back in the April signings. TFTC.
Found it on my way to Paraparaumu with the Manawatü Sinfonia conductor. Going to do some shell fishing!

Forgot pen, but was a fun quick find!

A quick easy find of a nice hide. There is only one space left in the logbook. TFTC
I had a few minutes to spare before my next appointment so decided to look for this one. At GZ I couldn't see anywhere it could be although did pull a block of wood out to check. As I was about to leave I used the "where would I hide it?" technique and soon had the cache in hand.
Awesome find to introduce new cachers to the game. Thanks for making it an awesome cache.
Nice quick find - had cache in hand before little Miss Setucurst was even out of the car. Signed log, placed back and off to the next one - TFTC
Quite impressed... this is our first geo-hunt in a very long time, and newly using phone app for GPS - very successful. Well hidden but simple to find when you work it out Adding a photo of the geocache with a backdrop of the beautiful snow topped mountain ranges - you can see what a good day it was! The description asks that we let the Librarian (at Te Takere, the local library) know we've been there and were geocaching... did this even tho we go to this library often, however had coffee at the cafe there and was reminded how nice it is.
second time here looking for the cache, setucurst soon had it in hand, signed m&K. tftc
A road trip with tommygun9 was decided for today so we set off from work at lunchtime for a trip down the line to Levin in a truly dreary, wet and damp winters day.
This was a nice easy find and the view of the new building is great, looks like a great asset for Levin

Expected it to be closer to the subject building. Capperz had done the proper prior research so this was a very quick find.
#47 TFTC found by chance

Found it! Then put it back again not realising. Then found it again! Very cool cache
Glad I when for the cache before heading back to porirua. Love the size of cache tftc.
Passing through to New Plymouth. gps took me straight to it. Despite all the cars no apparent muggles nearby. tftc
Hmmm. GPS took me to an unlikely spot before I moved along and let my fingers do the walking. TFTC
A quick find thanks to MJMNZ and her good eyes.
Sadly did not have time for a visit to the library! Perhaps next time I am passing through?

GPS spot on so a quick find.
Thanks for the cache.

Thanks for the cache.
Reasonably straightforward find. One of 18 located on weekend trip to Wanganui. #446. TFTC.
Found at GZ been here a couple of times just had to have patience and wait for gps to settle , took me out to road at first where we parked, walked around gps was up and down till it gave me a better clue to look at , to what the hint and others logged. Cache is dry and in a good hiding place you can not see it nor can the muggles. TFTC
Quick and easy find whilst shopping nearby on our break to Pasadena Park. Did with Mycro Man and Wandering Dragons

Finding the cache wasn't too difficult. There are only a few spots to hide. TftC
