Today I went back out to the George King Memorial Drive to sign off a few more of the D/T grid plus any others that were close by.Back to the other caches. Luckily I'm not that vertically challenged.Cheers for the cache, Hall-way.

Reached up and felt something move, yup its the cache, nice one, cheers

Visiting beautiful Dunedin and its surrounds for the mega. Many city and country roads driven to search for caches and appreciate the many COs placing them for us to find.

Traveling around South Island NZ over the next 2 weeks. Arrived at GZ. Found cache and signed log. TFTC

travelling to Dunedin for the Geo Toroa Mega with Squirrel Nutcase.After a couple of changes to our air flights we arrived approx 4 hours late.we had solved so many puzzles before coming and a plan had been hatched as to road routes we would take.We decided to log caches with a shortened version of our cache names just to help with saving log space and time.so FANGS was to be our logging name for this trip.great to see most caches have been checked prior to our visit.bit of a reach to collect this cache.TFTC

With Gap (of Fap and Gap) Were here for Geo Toroa (Dunedin Mega). Between flight cancellations and re-routing, things could only get better, right? But wait, theres more! Somewhere on our caching escapades, I dropped my wallet (Tuesday) Its still at large, so if anyone finds itOne of us usually drives, the other is the retriever. That works for us. Weve either logged caches with our separate handles, or weve used FANGS to sign the logbook. Using the latter handle is more for mental health and well being. Its tiring having to write 15 + characters on each logbookAfter yesterdays wallet debacle, I had to shoot into the bank for card replacements or risk being penniless and homeless for the next few days. The bank was amazing, and they had me fixed up and out the door in good time. It was still early enough to put a plane back togetherPassing by, so why not! Gap had the logbook out while I attended to one of many work messages Thanks Hall-way. TFTC.

Have signed this one before finding the two caches. Helps being a tall bugger. Turn the page over. TFTC

There was no container on top of any of the metal strips unfortunately

DNF

Dont think its there

Pretty hard find it was up that's my only hint haha

It is hello be tall...lol tftf

I like that one

Found it! Took our friend on their first geocach find

First geocache find!

Thanks!

It was super thin! Helpful to be tall

Couldn't find this in 2018 but After severL minutes today finally located log now full

Easy

Got it

Spent ages looking and finally success. GPS bounced a bit. Thanks

After some walking around in circles on a quiet Sunday evening, I am victorious. Log is getting pretty full.

Found it 24/01/24

Tftc

Spent quite a while searching but no luck today. Will have to try another time - will bring geohubby and a step next time

Really cool find

Really cool find!

Easy find

Found it on this nice sunny day thanks

A few days away caching with Nosynel. NN is taller so she found this one. Thanks, Hall-way#9884

Thanks for hiding this cache Hall-way I appreciate it. ?? This may be the final cache of the day. The weather ?? turned fowl at the end of the day. We've had a great day out.

With daddypig in town to be my taxi driver I decided it was time to find some more geocaches. It was a good thing I brought him along or a wouldn't have found this one. TFTC

Took a while until we read the full description

Great cache thank you. The blossom is out here - quite stunning.

Tftc!

??

Had to reach for this one nice wee hidden in plain sight cache TFTC

Yeah we found our first geocacache

Fungi found it no room on log book

Found it I had a lift up to find it

Very difficult to find metres changed a lot

Out having a gc adventure. Mr topping up with fuel while I walked down. Was to tricky for me had hand on it twice and didn't realise. Mr C cMe and said 'got it', wow so clever. Thanks for the cache Hall-way.

Pretty much DNF'd it but Mrs Geckoh convinced Mr Geckoh to have another look, sure enough... Log is full but found a spot to overwrite...

Found it, cache still in place - TFTC

Found it. Good hiding place. I’m plain sight

Found the metal plate under the rock but nothing else.

Found a stone and metal plate on the ground but no log to sign.

Nicely hidden

Needed a lift to find it

Cool spot

My wery handy no.1 gave me a boost to find this cache. Signed the log page and whilst I handed it back to him to put cache away, he found another cache under it in same hide. Signers kizzima and HappyHeptonstalls seem to given approximate timelines to when the two micros have been discovered first/last entries. Cache gets plenty of attention from noobs but you will be unlikely to find any evidence the geo tour noob who logged their 100 caches from the car window wouldn't have signed log. They claimed finds on several missing caches across Dunnas. *Labyrinth **15pt** trad **240pt***. TFTC

My boy found it after requesting a lift

I'm short so I had to climb

??

Up high

Good find

Found it thanks

Cache 1151 This one took me a good 10 mins to find, with the hint so was looking in all the obvious places (obviously wrong places) I was almost to challenged to find this one, almost needed a TOTT that I don’t have in my car lol but I “stretched” my limits to get the smiley T4TC

Nice quick find while clearing a few out around mosgiel tftc

Found it!

#1

Very difficult

Nice

Needing a cache for the day, my targeted cache was a DNF. This was a easy 2nd option. Quickly found.
Thanks for the cache, Hall-way

Always good to avenge a dnf. Updated hint helped.

I had some time to fill in before my flight back home this morning. I filled this up by going for a walk along the Silver Stream and exploring a few areas of Mosgiel I haven't visited before. No worries here.

TFTC

Slightly tricky as not very tall but signed the log & off again! TFTC

Thank goodness for booster seats. Only needed a couple of inches
Thanks for fun cache

A nice quick find with a bit of height from HRDentist, TFTC

A good find, TFTC

Found some places and stones. Try another day.

Good hiding spot, little guy is loving finding them

Nice easy find

Found it. Thanks.

found it

This visit to was able to find this one. A sneaky hide and an interesting spot. TFTH

That was chilly

Found it TFTC

Hh

Good op for a pull up

Found it!

Great wee find while out on an afternoon bike ride with my two boys.

All done

New very thin cache in place.

Appears to have disappeared again. Will replace soon.

Looked everywhere according to the information but no go today

Could not find

Couldn’t see it. Not sure it hasn’t disappeared.

The container had been put back not attached to the plate and fallen in the hole. My son on my shoulders managed to get it. We put it back the right way. The geocache label doesn’t stick to the plate anymore and found it in the bush near by. We put it under the plate to hopefully stop it blowing away

Aha! There it is.

Finally found it after about ten minutes of thorough searching. Couldn't see as it wasn't in its box anymore. Had to climb on top of my bike to even see it. Might want to check. Tftc

Given a few of the logs here I wasn't quite sure what to expect or what I needed to be looking for.

Thankfully, a quiet Sunday afternoon was a good time to read up on all the things the Mosgiel environs has to offer. Whilst reading the posters I commenced a finger-tip search which paid dividends quite early on as I found something a little out of place which demanded further investigation.

A subtle hide for sure.

Thanks Hall-way

Nope. Might have to come back in the daylight for this one. Nice looking information booth, though. Well done Rotary!

Funny anecdote: nearby is a rock with an information plaque, which plaque talks about the beautification and replanting of the surrounding area. Ironically, the small font size on the plaque forces you to trample over part of said beautification in order to be able to read about it. This definitely is my style of humour.

Spent 20min trying to find it but we could not find it in the end.

Nice cache on a nice day
Cheers

Fun

Quick easy find TFTC

Easy find today, although cache wasn't what we were expecting. TFTC

Easy find, magnet wasn't really working, thought washer was better used as a weight.

Weird cache tftc
