Pirate's Cache (Canterbury) Christchurch, South Island, New Zealand
By looking4thebroc on 07-Apr-13. Waypoint GC48Y05

This cache has gone missing too many times and so will be archived.

Hi the cache itself has gone missing and requires replacing. I have the log book, which was lying on the ground and can return it to the owner if they wish.

I am not sure if I should log this cache. We found the log book in its bag on the grass but no sign of the cache container

Easy find TFTC

Quick find WLTC

It's well hidden

Had a good idea where to find it. Reached, and treasure in hand! Arrrggghh

Easy find, one or two poeple around so had to pick my moment. TFTC.

A nice day to sit down! Busier here today than I would have expected. TFTC

Forgot a pen but good hide pirate man!

Had a seat and a geocache! Cheers.

Was in the area and though I would try to swab the decks and collect my unfounds. Thanks for the clever hide.

cache still there. TFTC

It may have moved. Four guys gave it a good good go...found nothing.

Cache had fallen, moved cache back to intended position to help it stay out of sight and remain in place.

Nice quick find tonight after attending a prize giving ceremony at the University. Nobody about to see what we were up to. TFTC.

Not that harrrrrrd. Quick find. Thought I didn't have a pen, but have now realized I did.

A quick find

Nice hiding spot! Found it last night but forgot a pen to sign it. Went back this morning to log it.

A quick find today. No-one around due to UC holidays, so a great time to find it. TFTC

Gotta cache 'em all!

Happened to be in the area this afternoon with a bit of time to spare so what better to do than track down a few caches? This one was a 20-second find. Signed log, TFTC!

A nice quick find on my way to CHCH

TFTC

Nearly got caught by these smelly muggles!!! We managed to avoid detection though ^^

Out with Spanky Moore 1st one tonight TFTC

Found with Mr GB while enjoying daylight savings. Tftc.

A nice quick find on the way home to the Coast after the International Earthcache Day event today. We decided to go home the slightly longer way passed some mores cache that were already in the GPS. Thanks for the cache

O r me hearty.

Parked close and sent my daughter out to get it. TFTC

fast done. Thanks for hiding

Yaaarrrr thank ye for the cache ya land pirate

Quick find while killing time waiting for the Americas cup race to kick off this morning. TFTC

Had a bit of a wait before attempting this one as a muggle was too close. Once he left i had a good look around, but couldn't find it and was about to give up when i saw it on the ground a few feet from the cache site. Signed and put back to a likely spot.

5391. Took Stella (7) and Zach (4) out for the afternoon to help continue our streak. This was a quick and easy find by Stella. We enjoyed the multi that finished up here. Thanks for the cache. Rodney, Iris, Stella and Zach.

Easy find tftc

A wet weekend cache collecting around Christchurch. Thanks for the hide.

Found it muggled last time but quick find this time.

I wasn't intending to come here today but when I had a DNF this was the nearest unfound cache. Being a Sunday it was a good choice for a park & grab. Yay I can go home now I have earned todays souvenir. TFTC

11.05 am and surprisingly few muggles around. Got the cache signed and returned easily. More muggles while typing this log on my phone. Tftc

Had the place to myself after an evening class. TFTC

Nice quick find on the way home for the 14th TFTC.

Found with Sevren.tftc
took the coin.

Even at 8pm the area had a few cars passing by in between which the cache was spotted and retrieved. TFTC

Found on an early morning caching run before some meetings at UC. The log is a little late because I am travelling and don't have regular Internet access. Quite a challenging hide, even with the hint, and the constant stream of muggles at this time of day was not helping at all! A very fitting cache for us - the 3pir8s - although only Pirate Pete is out on this particular adventure. Left a "3pir8s" pathtag for the next to find. Oops, sorry, left a "small coin-like souvenir" - Groundspeak don't like you saying "pathtag"; damn, I said it again! Please visit the Pathtag website to log that you found our Pathtag.

Container replaced

The cache has gone missing.

We spent a long time looking but no treasure for us today. We did find a wee green pencil on the ground in a small bag.

On the way to St Georges hospital to visit my wife after she has been in surgery but figured she would be still in recovery, so why not score a couple of caches to buy some time. Out with my son, there was little traffic and muggles about. Lickity split the cache was in hand, log book signed. TFTC

We looked and didn't see. We looked again and, what do you know. Right there. TFTC!

Quick find.

Took us a while but we found this well hidden cache, took green button left black M. That's the last of the close to home ones, time to look further afield.

A quick find, rather pleased it was very quiet muggle wise today.

Found on an extended Queens Birthday road trip with the infamous Kiwi_Explorer. Thank you for this cache and your contribution to Geocaching in general.

Always nice to acknowledge other cachers. Thanks looking4thebroc for placing this cache.

An old haunt of mine. Easy find thank goodness on a wet and cold day. What ever happened to Gyargh??
Thanks for the cache,

Had to wait for a muggle or 2 and then a bus arrived, other than that an easy find. TFTH

A quick find early in the morning, no muggles about.

1 this is my first one. I can see this will be a very fun thing to do with family.

Lovely warm sunny day - just right for a few local caches. Number 1 for us on today's hunt.
Loved the hide. TFTC

Took longer than it should have thanks to slowly passing muggles from all directions TFTC (1026)

Had the same issue as La Vista with the original multi cache, TFTC.

TFTC. I was out in this area and realised that I had forgotten to log this cache. Unbelievable luck here at 9.05 am - a cold and frosty morning so everybody must have rushed to where they needed to be and left this spot peaceful for me.
I have almost got all of the new FTF Event cahes now.
Thanks looking4thebroc for placing this cache.

Tftc! German geocoin dropped off here.

I remember finding the original cache here so it was a really quick find. I remember we solved the original cache by just finding the "under" and guessing the rest as the "over" looked a bit dicey. TFTC

Quick easy find in the dark of the night

Quick find. TFTC.

Had a rest on the seat,then it was found quickly after a Muggle had walked past.TFTC

easy find

I forgot Uni was back this week. But I did choose a good time to visit, just before lectures ended. I parked across the street and casually sat down on the seat and looked inconspicuous sitting in the rain!!! I found the cache quickly and waited for a few muggles to walk by and then I was able to replace the cache. When I was at Uni this place was still Teachers' College. Raced back to the shelter of my truck. My first cache from L4TBs flurry of last weekend. Looked like everyone had a heap of fun.
Thanks for the cache.

Bother - a "server error" ate the stunning log I had crafted for this cache...
Anyway, thanks, l4tb, fort his cache not far from home which filled a dot day.
I'd love to knock off the 13 dot days I have left in May - maybe I'll manage a streak longer than my previous somewhat feeble attempts, to clear them all.
TFTC.

Easy find while out for a run in the area.

Dropped the kids at the dentist and headed for the bank. A quick muggle free stop here soon had the cache in hand. TFTC.

Pleased to find a simple cache where we couldn't cause any problems. TFTC

MacPacMum & MacPacSon carefully followed the Pirate's Map and reached the treasure - by the outlined body on the road close by it doesn't look like everybody made it! Hope the pirates don't get anyone else. TFTC Day 235 of MacPacmum's cache-a-day streak

My 400th find!!!! Tftc

Had a busy afternoon with the family so came out in the evening to start knocking off a few of these new caches. Quick find at night with no muggles to worry about...could be a busy spot at times! Nice one. Cheers.

Yay my first FTF in Christchurch city. Nice and handy to home. Tftc

After an enjoyable afternoon at the Share a Cuppa and Some FTF Yarns event, we called here on our way home.

My last find of the new ones for today - such unexpected fun! I've spent many hours here previously, and so it was nice to revisit this old haunt of mine. A quick find without anyone around. Thanks for another reason to visit here. Now where did I misplace my patch....
