Went in search with a torch after dark. Looked and looked and did not find but had fun nonetheless. Next time.... thanks for the play.
In Hokitika for the weekend. After all the rain the river was waaaaay up. Forced the boys & Mrs G to walk out here - none to keen due to the high river......it was only when we got here & couldn't find it I checked the previous logs and saw the string of DNFs.....doh!....
Went for a run to find this cache in the morning along with the others over the river. No cache for us.
Biked to this one and looked long and hard for this one with Mapper Ted. It was blowing a gale and in the end we had to beat a retreat.
A hot walk across the bridge poking in all the nooks and crannies another one to try next time we come to the coast. M&P
We found this cache on our way from Hokitika to Fox Glacier by car 
We found almost all caches alon this beautiful road! Road full of beautifull scenic views, nature and nicely colored river! This is such a awesome piece of nature! Two glaciers in one day and it was absolutely breathtaking! Thanks for making this cache, beautiful stop

Just back home in UK from trip to NZ so now able to log our finds. Parked our campervan in the car park by the visitor centre and walked around the town in the late afternoon. Stretched our legs walking back over the bridge for this one. TFTC
Out and about with Mrs Nofs on a lovley West Coast day. Managed to take in lots of views and snag a cache or two while we were about it. Thanks for adding these to this part of the world.
Quick find with great views... Might be closer to town side of bridge for those wanting to avoid the walk
In Hokitika for our niece's first communion. Out for a bit of fresh air before lunch. Thanks for bringing us here.
A nice night for a walk along the bridge. The stars were amazing. A quick find on a winters tour down the West Coast. The weather is great (though cool), and the scenery fantastic. What a beautiful country we live in. Thanks for the hide.
Driving from Franz Josef to Christchurch today and grabbed some caches along the way. Quick find. Signed log. TFTC!
It didn’t take too long to find this cache, after searching several of the possible hiding places, as the traffic sped close by. TFTC
After trying alot of different bugs and animals we took a stroll along the bridge to find this cache and enjoy the lovely sunshine.

Yaayyy. Thanks for this one. It was like unfinished business to find it as I spent a very long time searching for its predecessor without success. Couldn't help thinking "this must be half way". No? Well "this must be half way". - - - It's a long way across that bridge. .
.Found it today together with my girlfriend. Very stormy Weather! Thank you for showing!
I used to play on the island that was under the old rail-road bridge about this spot! TFTC.
Easy find on my walk to town from NZMC park.
A few whitebaiters trying their luck on the last tide for the season.

like the last cache here...coords bang on....but then, not much in the way of the sky!
GeoRob is so good at this now, found it before I could say its near here. Thanks for the walk along the bridge on a lovely spring evening. Last few days in NZ. We will be back. TFTC.
Great walk to here. The container was missing its lid when I signed it.

Went for a walk from the southern end of the bridge and yes, it was very obvious to a geocacher's eye as I walked towards it. Signed log, TFTC and for the excuse for the interesting walk over the bridge.
Over in Hokitika on a cheap grab a seat flight from Christchurch. The 12th of 21 caches I did today.
When we left the accommodation we were hoping for a first to find, but of course KiwiExplorer was one day earlier. We found the previous cache on the bridge, so this was a bit unexpected to find a new cache. TFTC
FTF with Kiwi Grandad while running in the X1/9s new engine. Nice place to walk across and a better view than when I was last here in the dark. Cache was spotted on approach.
Thanks gracie7 + Mum for placing this cache.
