Trees glorious trees- The Pohutukawa (Wanganui) Wanganui, North Island, New Zealand

I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in the last reviewer note.

Hi mjmnz

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Regards

Oof

Sadly didn’t find it will definitely come back and have another look

No luck in the rain again.

It’s already budding!, beautiful! ️

new cache is position. Please cover carefully with leaf litter and bark as position quite exposed

Could not find. Started getting weird looks from some neighbors so decided to cut my losses.

No luck here today

Good quick cache

ANZAC weekend in Taranaki/Whanganui . Focused on Adventure Labs and also whatever will be handy. This hide was one of them.

Handy one. All good here.

Beautiful day for a walk, TFTC

The Pohutukawa were looking magnificent today. Nice spot for it

Quick easy find tftc

I was out on my bike collecting caches along the cycleway today and almost missed this one. Fortunately I spotted it on the GPS screen just after riding past it (for the second time that day) and turned back for the quick find. The street was quiet here today, thanks to the cool and grey weather. TFanotherC and the pohutukawa look great this time of year.

Cache # 4,917 - super quick find on a lovely summer's day (if a bit breezy). A young girl was doing joyful Irish dancing across the street as I grabbed and logged this. TNLNSL. TFTC!

#12,100. Walk and grab on Balgownie Avenue in Gonville, Whanganui. Fortunately, GZ was all quiet at the time of our visit. Quick find. The cache was in good condition, all nice and dry inside. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log.

Thanks for the placement, and for bringing us to this site, and …

Nice hide

On a day visit to Whanganui and enjoying a bike ride along the riverside path. Pleased to find this one after a series of DNFs. Good to celebrate these beautiful trees, thanks mjmnz.

Day 1 (With Squirrel Nutcase) of our Whanganui road trip.
Knew this was going to be a long day today. First cache found about 8am and last one found just before midnight.
Mission today Event, A cache starting with the letter U, Several Multi's, Earth Cache, Virtual and anything else we could find.
Achieved all the above.
Thanks to Cache Owners for their placement efforts and sorry about the cut and paste but this was a huge weekend for us. SLTFTC

With Gap (of Fap and Gap)... On a road trip weekend - We haven’t been on anything like this since Covid Episode One in March. A special Community Event in Whanganui got our attention. So we’re off to the ‘River City’ for a bit of fun...

Day One of our adventure - We intended on caching out some big trails as we made our way to the event... A parked vehicle added to the difficulty. So when the owner drove away, we were able to make quick work of this one. Thanks mjmnz and TFTC.

Once again I am up in Wanganui (from Wellington) for the weekend, out and about for a few more caches. Spent the beautiful afternoon strolling along the river pathway collecting caches, and this was one. All safe and dry, TFTC.

Not too hard, cool cache

A nice find this evening. Didn’t take long before the cache was in hand. Signed the log and took care to conceal properly. TFTC!

Left kids in car to find yay lol

First one of 16 caches located today on a bike ride from our motel in town out to Castlecliff, mostly on a shared pathway. A reasonably quick find. #3256. TFTC.

Easy find

Pohutakawa trees are so beautiful. Thanks for the placement

when u feel stupid....its been right there the whole time

Another DNF ticked off my list today. Thanks for replacing and TFTC..they sure are some glorious looking trees

My mum asked me to be quiet walking along here. Of course I stepped on every branch and leaf that I could to annoy her....and to probably alert the neighbours...after a quick sweep of our eyes around the neighbourhood we signed the log unseen..we hope.

Quick find. Vinaka

(# 5587). Decided to come up this way on a weekend jaunt from Wellington. The primary aim was to get some of the GeoTour caches. This is my second visit as previously the cache was AWOL. A quick find. Everything in order. TFTC

Find number 6379. In Wanganui with a German friend who is doing part of the Te Araroa trail. After dropping her off at where she had previously go to I spent the day caching. I had my bicycle so spent the day on the cycle trails each side of the river.
This part of the trail was actually on the road. A quick stop and sign. Thank you for the placement

Quick escape at lunchtime from the hospital to collect some urban caches. Cache all fine.

Spending the weekend in Wanganui attending a meeting staying at Springvale park in the camper. We set off today to do some caches around town before heading for New Plymouth. Mrs S got out and found this one just as Mr S came to help.

Thanks mjmnz.

new container and log sheet in plaCE. PLEASE COVER WELL WITH LEAF LITTER

No joy here today. Needs to be replaced I’m thinking

I thought I would check this out again. Absolutely clear sky which helped GPS settle down and pointed to the tree it did last time. I'm afraid I could not locate it as per hint. This one remains a sad face DNF

Couldn't find a thing

Searched for quite a long time for this but could not find.

New cache in place. Please cover carefully with bark and leaf litter.

Couldn't find this one, spent awhile looking for it too, wasn't my day for this one

A nice quick find, parked the bike right next to the cache too! Cheers.

Today is the day we head to New Plymouth, after some time biking the trail from the sea to the city. Another great weather day..

Thanks to all of the COs for placing and maintaining their caches. Cheers.

Found and signed as part of Team IE. TFTC! Not quite in bloom yet...

This street must look beautiful at Christmas. Signed Team IE. TFTC

Stopped here this afternoon on a bike ride down thie cycleway to Castlecliff and back. Found after a short search - yes it's quite a splendid avenue of trees. Signed log, TFTC

Took us a few minutes to find this sneaky little hide.
Thanks for placing this cache mjmnz

Over in Wanganui for the afternoon to watch a hockey mini tournament that one of the Jr. Cachers was playing in so decided to grab a few caches before the game. Needed a cache for a dot-day and there where plenty around that we hadn't found. The Jr. Cachers had fun clambering around GZ, however it was Mr All7ofusNZ who finally located the cache. Thanks mjmnz.
