I think it's gone. There was a slip and I could guess where the cache would have been, but it's empty now.
Searched and searched, unable to find have a feeling it's gone now. Really moved branches etc around without luck. Path is still closed due to slips, could actually be further up, unable to check further.
Lotus walk is closed but as the GZ is near the entrance we looked for it quite a lot of time without results
I looked where I remember this hiding, and dug really deep but couldn't find the cache. Had a good look around but nothing to be seen.

A stunning evening for a walk. Easy find. Thanx left a smilie face, a dice and army man
Hideeho thanks for the cache:) Greetings from the USA on day three exploring the coast for cache in Auckland. Took out the candy someone left in cache, added a new log strip.
Great spot! Had to really put your arm in there! Natalier211 and I left a little water Pokemon in there as it is by the sea. 
Found on our walk from Long Bay to Campbells Bay. "Nothing there but a hole" says Mrs Jag50, I have a quick look and say "nothing there but a hole and the cache" "I left my glasses in the car" she says!
Some consternation among us as we got close to this cache when it was thought that we might have approached from the wrong end. But we were OK. Then it was Oh-Oh discovering an empty hole. Well the top half was empty and the bottom half had a cache.
Out doing a walk from Long Bay to Campbell's Bay with Merlot58 and Jag50 getting caches along the way. We approached and were afraid that we would have to climb all those stairs to the top. Luckily that was not the case. Good thing Merlot58 was on to it and searched the location that Jag50 had missed.
After a coffee and a bite to eat at a lovely local cafe we decided to go for a walk & collect two caches close by. Walked up to Sharon Road first, enjoyed the view and checked out a house that has just sold. Headed back down the path and began searching. Almost gave up the search between other flax and trees higher up, but thanks to jensen.bx7 we achieved our goal finally. TFTC Zork V
Shared this find with a Hamiltonite and a Brit/Zimbabwean on holiday! Excellent fun in the rain. Easy find. Very simple. No need to step off the path...but height would be a plus to actually see it.
Our last one for the night, kids sleeping in the pram now, but time to go home. TFTC!
Got it! Also found what looks like an old cache... And a few discarded beer bottle. Did my bit to keep the surrounds clean.
Back dating some of our finds as we have just created our account for a Guiding unit. Took us a while to find this one. Really good hiding spot! The girls were close to giving up and then spotted it. Thanks
Looked for a while without success. Couldn't have stayed longer, mosquitos were unbearable. Both of us left covered in bites.
Second attempt with mossie repellent.. Easy find! First attempt we went way too cross country.
The end of 2015 saw us take on a big couple of days of caching. At the beginning of the year, we set a goal of reaching 4000 cache finds by the end of the year. Towards the end of 2015, it wasn't looking too promising as geocaching got put a bit on the backburner for us as life and things happened. Come the 31st Dec 2015 and still needing a good portion of finds, New Year's Eve called for some binge caching in th North Shore to reach that milestone!
After a quick rummage around, we soon had our hands on the cache. A beautiful spot with some stunning views across the beach today! The water certainly looked enticing, but goals to be met.
Thanks for the hide!

Thanks for the hide! Took a walk on the beach this morning with some friends and their dogs. Started at the other end and when we spotted there was a cache here, we made a quick diversion to find it. T4TC. Did with Mycro Man

I was in the area today with a couple of hours to spare so decided to go for a bit of a walkabout and find a few caches. A good spot for the cache. Found in the first place I checked. TFTC, Biggles.
A nice hiding place for such a busy area, quick easy find. Tftc

I must have walked past it multiple times but just couldn't seem to find it! Maybe I needed to go off the walkway more?
)Lovely quick find by Ric after coffee at Ben Gusto ! Always forget how great Browns Bay is with eateries ...beach and shops !!!Shame so far from West lol
Off to try pizza place now ..

Due to an event being held at Long Bay today, yorkshirekiwi83 and I spent the day caching between Browns Bay and Long Bay. We walked down from Sharon Rd and made a quick find of the cache at GZ. TFTC!
Spent the day caching with Vistra, we were heading to an event in the area so decided to take the opportunity to grab as many as we could from within the area. Parked at the top of the hill and walked down, quick find, but the log was full, found a little side patch to sign in. TFTC

Well we took the long way as we found after we had walked over the hill and down the other side...still it s good for us. T4tc
Searched high & low for ages. Decided to give up & try again another day as it was getting dark. Heading back down the track in defeat, took a sideways glance to comment to the team that it's a shame to end the night with a failure and there it was, looking right at me. Can't believe we missed it. A successful evening's caching.
