Found but this is in a lot of need for maintenance. The vial is broken. Log missing. Good sneaky cache though.

Vial is broken and cache missing log.

Started raining.. will try later..

Found the top.

More carparking

A previous visit had me believing this was hard. The cache was spied quick smart (although it was upside down). The lid is brittle/broken and the log is wet so the container may need replacing soon. TFTC.

Being in the area I decided to stop and get this for my streak. Got to GZ and had a looked around nothing suspect so I started to search a little and soon found the sneaky little cache. Nice camo. TFTC.

Easy find log wet but able to sign. Tftc

Easy find this morning because vial was not hidden but it in the open tftc well hidden now

Out to get my minimum one a day for the 2017 streak. Not usually very keen on rocks in rock walls or bark in bark gardens, but decided to try anyway. Used the description and found a seat at GZ and got the eyes in action and it wasn't long before a suspicious piece was spotted. Sure enough, it was the cache, so was able to sign the log and depart, withut raising any suspicions from the locals.

TFTC

Pretty easy one.

Sigh... log absolutely fine. Dry and just needed a tool to remove from container. Have replaced vial regardless.

Found it.....log too damp to write on

Could have taken a rather long time ...But I got lucky , and it was one of the first things I touched !!!!!
Great idea thanks Riser5 !

This one could have been soo much harder, but fortunately it was located in a way that something stuck out

Found at 15:29 - #6718

On my way up the line for a week of r&r on my way further up to northland today. Last cache for the day before heading into Onerahi. Read the description and thought I might be in for a bit of a hunt. Pulled up and waited for muggle kids to move on and the quickly spotted the hide. TFTC

Looking for some drive bys and this one fitted the bill nicely. Had a little search before noticing what we were looking for. Nicely done and TFTC

Managed to find the cache... nice to avoid the rain. T4tc

311 Changing weather today

Nice ret in the sun and laid hand on it. Nice hide. Thanks for the cache

Quick find and sign and outer here thanks for the cache

In the area for another crack at some unfounds on the OC series, which was only mildly successful. Pleased at least to get some other finds while in the area.

Found

Had a bit of a dig around, cool camo. Tftc

This could have taken a while, but hubby put his hand on it when he sat down. TFTC

I'm back up in my home town of Whangarei for the holiday period and today joined up with fellow Auckland cacher yorkshirekiwi83 and local caching friends tikitour for a hot summers day of caching around the city. The logs were either signed with our caching names or some combination of the letters T,V & Y for our caching names - depending on who had previously found the caches. Made a quick find of this one as the cache container was clearly visible, so re-hid it a bit better. TFTC!

Decided to finish the year and see in the new year in Whangarei, Vistra and tikitour decided to join me and we spent the time grabbing caches around the region, in some cases it was just one that needed to sign in others it was all three of us, signed as TYV (or combination of those letters) or VY when it was more than 1 of us.

Vistra pretty much put his hands straight on this one. TFTC

The cache nearly got cleared away with the camo but luckily one of the team spotted the cache & log was signed and tucked up nicely before an elderly muggle strolled by. TFTC

Was lining all the clues ups when the cache was accidentyl disturbed. TFTC

Found after a bit of rummaging

After having been away for work for the past week this is my second to last day away so thought I should make the most of it and grab a few caches. As this was closest to my hotel it was tenth on my list of grabbing caches before breakfast.
heading off down a side street this one was soon in hand and on to the next. Nice cammo but managed a nice and quick find
The locals are still asleep

thank you for the placement

Quite amazed this one had deteriorated as much as the plastic had. Shoved another micro in to the hole.

Tftc lid broken

Cool cache. Easy fond with honeykz

TFTC second bark picked up. Found with yomama76. May need maintenance lid on cache is torn off

Yay!!! 3rd time lucky. Last looked for this over 6 months ago. Knew we would just have to try, try, try again. Walked right by it and must have looked right over it. Searched further along and then back again to where I started...and there it was...exposed for all the world to see. How did I miss it??? TFTC

Exposure to the sun has made the lid brittle. Disintegrated as I opened it. Made sure it is face down but will get very wet if it is upended again.

Tftc out and about with scout n about

Awhile since this one has been found, but do hope it is still there, but not for our eyes today.

Cool cache. Easily found it - good clues thanks. TFTC

#1399 Night time dash to get my daily cache (and a couple extra to get a nice round number). Was pleasantly surprised how quickly I found this one- it was in the first place I looked. TFTC- clever hide.

TFTC

Today we spent a full day of caching in the Whangarie area followed by a bit of sight seeing.
The caches we found today were all in great areas with wonderfull views of the harbour.
This could easily have been a DNF, a cunning hide, luckily found.
Thanks for placing this cache Riser5

Almost a needle in a haystack but there was a slight evidence of previous geocachers which helped direct my search. TFT(very tricky)C.

Got it! Initially thought this one could take a while, but found after a couple of minutes. Clever hide, TFTC

Weekend visit to find some of the caches published since our last visit. Lucky we found this one after only a very brief search TFTC.

Nice

Quick and easy find on the way into town. Had not been replace well last time or has been knocked over, not in right 'position' - will make sure it's done properly this time. Tnlnsl. Tftc.

Too easy! Someone or something had left this face up for the world to see.... wiiphe hid it well!

Awesome hide! Think it was more luck that we found this one quickly. TFTC

Thks

Found the cache 17m away from GPS point, so moved it closer to clues ... About 10m.

Chased off by the nearby wasps from the nest on the wall.

Took a few minutes to spot this one

CAUTION: Hornets?? nest very near cache. SL TFTC

Great cache. Many ways of interpreting the clues.

#6201. We're getting a bit lazy about reading cache descriptions. Taking the time to read this one yielded dividends. TFTC.

We looked at GZ and our hearts sank - this could take a while. After an unsuccessful search, as both GPSrs were wavering a little, StreetWalker read the cache description. After that, the find was easy. Good hide. TFTC.

When we drove up there was a man right next to GZ putting up a 'for sale' sign. Once he had left we were able to have a decent look. Didn't take us too long - only because the great Blondini51 was on to it straight away! Good hide, we enjoyed it.

clever hide. Found it in the end. Thanks

Sneaky sneak indeed. Read hint and bingo found it. Quick sign and off as needed elsewhere .

Found on a day trip - had a do to attend at night

TFTC

(633) What a tough little find amongst the hundreds to look through. Eventally found what I seeked. TFTC

Turned over cache with out realizing what it was TFTC.

Found surprisingly quickly,glad I had the tweezers today.TFTC.

Mrs CHLYBN loved the camo! Thanks!

Our 4th FTF in our 'race' - bit tricky but Mr tikitour spotted it!! Another one with great terrain rating for cautious 'older, injured cachers'!!! Thanks Nick...

Found surprisingly quickly, TFTC

Haha this one could be sneaky and may move around a bit !!! love it.......after a wee hunt Mr tikitour made our 4th FTF today. TFTC

If you tell someone what they're looking for before they find this, the look on their face would be priceless!
