By tikitour on 25-Nov-12. Waypoint GC41WE6

cant get to this for awhile so will archive for now.

After the last few logs will disable temporarily until able to get out and check on it. If there is that much rubbish don't want cacher at risk. Thanks for the info.

Decided to take a DNF too much rubbish and glass.

There is heaps of rubbish around here, so thought it was just another bit of rubbish. There was a muggle here taking photos and reporting the rubbish. Not sure if cache will survive. Was a easy park and grab. TFTC.

Was it supposed to be on the ground ? Lol

Found with Happyfacedbandit true to name this was a nice easy Park and grab, just what we needed after the mixed bag day we have had. Thanks for the cache!

I must have a mother's nose because I couldn't smell the bones, though cache buddy Vanquish could. Log was damp and a bit of water in the bottom of the container, but an easy find.

We struggle with rock wall hides so paniced as we approached GZ. Whew, GPS took us past it and we found the cache easily. Thanks for this little cache trail. I really appreciate the effort that goes into it, TFTC

the rock wall was where I thought the cache would be. Quick find again. Wet log and bag. TFTC

Another great spot. Bit smelly due to some dumped bones of some kind. Thanks!

#533 I found the cache sitting out in the open. I also found a terrible smell as someone dumped lard and possum carcasses at GZ. Rescued a wet geocoin and rehid the cache with a few rocks for cover. TFT(sensory)C.

Found on the way home from a scout walk. Pretty easy find, but the smell was not so flash, given the dead creature in the grass nearby.... Dropped off 2 TBs, hope they travel well soon. SLTN, Tftc!

Easy to find

Nice... quick windy find brrrrr

Last morning up this part of the country so a final chance to grab some caches before work in the morning. This presented itself as a nice little trail and so it was.
The roads were all quiet and only had a single vehicle pass while completing it (Rural Post). all caches were quick finds and nice to find some reasonably sized caches out here.

thank you for the work required to complete and maintain this trail
Thank you for the placement

Wasp nest close by. Proceed with caution

Quick find between showers, TFTC

Found it our second find exciting times great fun

Quick find as we dodged the rubbish to find the cache. t4tc

Nice quick park and grab. TFTC.

Nice quick park and grab. Taken the breast cancer travel bug with hopes to drop it at the bottom of the South Island at the end of the month. TFTC!

Nice and easy quick layby grab. Lovely swag, cache a little damp. Dropped a trackable. TFTC

Quick find on the side of road after a great day exploring the heads & logging a few finds.

Nice quick park and grab on our way back to Whangarei after a day out exploring the bays. Thanks for the cache

Another for Jamie, easier for him. Quick find. TFTC

Container cleaned and dried out and new log placed. Dropped in Hours together TB to start its travels in New Zealand.

Found on the Tiger Road with a few other Tiger caches .
Mahopalu

Found with Redants while on our Far North Road Trip to the Winterless North. We found ourselves in some interesting places that we would not have visited had we not been searching for caches. Thanks to all the cache owners.
Found as we headed back from the Heads, nice to have a safe pull over spot for a drive by. TFTC.

We found this cache on a 2 week trip around Northland, visiting such locations as Opononi, Kaitaia, Cape Reinga, Russell, among many other places. Another good Tiger cache, TFTC

Found this one on a fun afternoon caching. Picked up the TB. TFTC

A lovely afternoon out with Kar3nlj. Picked up TB. TFTC.

TB drop

Out and about in the north this weekend to change some of the boxes on our maps into smilies. We made this our coffee stop as we felt we deserved one after rounding up all the tigers TFTC.

Someone should organize a CITO at this location. The rubbish is just phenomenal. Good cache though TFTC

Tftc

Vroom vroom to a nice cache. A bit of water in container and log damp. Dried it out as best we could. TFTC

Was feeling a bit Chuff to locate the Tiger, found with Yeetrees while enjoying a drive around the area, TFTC.

Decided to do a bit of a day tour of Northland and grab some easy drive-bys in the process. Thanks.

Nice quick stop for the cache. SL (LOG WET) TFTC

Nice easy find on a beautiful morning dropped duck b.........t f t c

#1590, Quick find, Picked up TB. TFTC

Lovely bushland here and we enjoyed the drive, left a TB to be moved on. Thanks for the cache.

did this one on the way home for the day. my sister put a travel bug in it. Thanks for the cache

Finished all our weekend meetings in the city and now we have visited the brother and sister in law, we have just enough time for a few more caches before it gets too cold and dark.

Getting very cold now, what happened to the winterless north. It's colder here than in Rotorua.

Quick find for this one but we couldn't believe the amount of traffic on what we thought was a country back road. If they were all locals they must have thought we were a bit odd.

Thanks tikitour.

Detour route home with some time to grab a few caches. Thanks!

Decided to head to Tutukaka for the morning to have a look since we'd never been there. This cache was on the way so we stopped to find it. Pleased it wasn't at ground level as it was a bit smelly down low. Nice big container and in good condition. TFTC

173rd find for The Great Scouts Australia Geocaching Competition 2013. Found with sunhalo, TFTC tikitour.

Found orginally as part of phasevisitor team, now created own account, re-logging as yorkshirekiwi83.

We are in my old home town of Whangarei, visiting family for Easter and decided to go out for a wet afternoon of caching. After a few caches around Glenbervie / Whareora, we decided to take Mt Tiger Road to Parua Bay and pick up the caches along there. The rain got heavier along here, so we tried our best to dodge showers as we grabbed caches – but we still got fairly wet! An easy find, thanks for the cache!

Thanks also for the Tiger trail – it's been a few years since I’ve been along Mt Tiger Road – great views from along here. Nice to meet you too at the TCCT event!

The CO, tikitour, who happens to be my sister has been very busy hiding caches. Being in town for a few days, I was very lucky to have the CO accompany me on my quest of all her Tiger caches. Geobuddy, Flowernz was also there to find the few she still needed.
We started here at Rocks on Tiger?? I jumped out, headed to GZ and quickly found the container which still looks nice and new.
Thanks tikitour for the smiley!

Decided to go and find this series, it was a hot afternoon but really enjoyed ourselves. TFTSeries

Now off to the store for an iceblock.

Rounding up the tigers today, a fun series and a great day to enjoy the finds.

Many thanks.

Another park and grab on our way to the Heads.

A nice place to drive by

TFTC

What's a few dead animals to put off a dedicated cacher? Mrs gernita was very brave and removed the cache while Mr gernita was on the phone organizing lunch. An easy find made all the more interesting by the local residents
TFTC!!

Made a brief stop at the Rocks on Tiger and soon had the cache found and logged. Liked the cache-weight used here. Thanks.

BTW: Not a lot of rubbish around at the moment - apart from the item at GZ

As the area has disappointingly become a dumping rubbish ground yuck and I don't like the thought of everyone having to endure rubbish while caching I will go and change the location in the next few days. I won't disable it yet as the cache is still in place but will update once I get it sorted.

The showers cleared for a bit so the Smith Family went out on a cache hunt; this was the first of the Tiger caches on today's "to find" list was quickly in hand. It looks like this little parking area is starting to become the local rubbish dumping ground unfortunately. TFTC

Out with my mate for the day, Lots of rubbish has been dumped down the bank, and also a few animal carcasses as well. Sheep and ducks etc.

Nice Skulls

Found with butters* TFTC .

Found a couple of interesting skulls at GZ (animal of course)then located cache.Nice Sunday drive.

10.50am. Took a few minutes as this is not the usual place for a hide of this type.
Thank you for the mini series. A pleasant trip. Thank you. David.

Another good hide tiki tour. Lovely placement.

FTF 11.59pm Nice quick find and a good size cache. Nice little hide. Took me a moment as there are a few spots to look.

There on placement - with my friend tikitour checking the spots and co-ords together.
