Unfortunately this has not been found recently, I go to the aero club two or three times a week, I am there and cannot find it each and every time.
This one eluded us. Spend too long at the coordinates. Will come back later and look a little further away. Very open area as trees have all been trimmed to at least 2m off the ground.
On the way back to CHCH after having had a lovely family weekends 'holiday' in Timaru. Detoured off the main road to grab 'Totara' and found we couldn't get back onto the main road from there so detoured around.
Had a good look....all the trees here have been pruned to ~2m off the ground. The spot I presume the cache might have been (fork in trunk) is way exposed (stones on ground) and nothing doing.
Might need checking....unless it's been moved nearby?
Cheers.

Easy find, it is very exposed now as the trees have been all trimmed up pass the cache.
Covered it the best I could, might need to check it.

Pretty quiet on arrival, signed log, then carried on by road. Thanks for the cache
Found with my niece an nephew while waiting for my plane to arrive to take me back to Wellington
A quick deviation on the way back to the motel from work. It has been a while since I have flown from this airport, but a dash into the bushes..and subsequent leaves in the hair...resulted in another cache to add to the count. Tftc
Had a look at RP's copy of the plane. Took two goes to get into the airport. Tree trimmers had the road closed. (And they had no safety gear on!) Thank you.
Go ask the cool AirNZ staff at the checkin for lollie after you find this.
Had a quick look when dropping hubby off at the airport & walked straight to it. Nice easy find.

Went for a wander while dropping dad at the airport. Soon had this but had to go into the airport to use their pen to sign the log.

5866. Good to come here after checking our flight of fancy cache yesterday. A quick and easy find right by where we parked (illegally!) Thanks, Rodney and Iris.

Very quiet at the airport today so parked close to GZ with the other rental cars. A pity the museum was closed as it looked quite interesting from what I could see through the window.
Many thanks
Many thanks
Parked perhaps illegally. Who was going to tell? It's New Year's Day. Hit the cache from 'behind'. I thought it was rather exposed at GZ, and we tried biffing ground cover at it but nothing stuck. From where I'd parked though, you couldn't see anything. TFTC.
Felt pretty conspicuous getting this one. I really don't like creeping in and out of bushes
13591... Easy find once we fought our way through the branches. Geocaching gives you wings... NO BULL, TFTC.
Had to wait for the two people outside talking on their phones both to look away at the right time...
wonderful south canterbury moist winters day with a bit of a chill on the edge out to sort out a few afternoon caches, un fortunately did not have a small member of the party to deal with this one so had to squeeze the 6 foot in bush bash, at least it was dry under there and the rain kept all the muggles well out of site;-)
great spot, had 2 minutes to spare whilst waiting for Meijer Clan whanau to pick up from the Airport. Try the free coffee / hot chocolate machine, AND free parking (although I know its a wee airport, its still good to see these things) Had to send a small Meijer Person in to retrieve.
Arrived at one of this place's busy periods so was in time to see the late afternoon Eagle Airways flight depart for Wellington. Found in the 3rd place I looked. Thanks for the cache
Another lovely day for caching. First time to the Timaru airport. Was all quiet today. Thanks for the hide.
An advantage being the shortest today. Found with rediguana and moneydork on a trip down south to Stewart Island. TFTC
Good find by HelloMrs on a whirlwind visit. Driving, not flying, today.
Cheers Gav
