I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in a prior reviewer note.

Hi Bartfound

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Assuming this was a magnetic one? Def not there anymore Had a couple of the other Bacon men ask me if I was ok as they left the court house, looking all dodgy under the tree

not here anymore

Didn't find the cache but we found the cash. May need maintenance as it was a solid look but no find

Think it's been stolen or gone

Next time

Looked and looked, but with sticky sappy hands, wr had to give up and log a did not find

Pretty sure I know where this one should be but the spot was empty

First cache found for us after 2x disappointments today. Miriama & Renee Rakete 30/12/2021

Found it with teo and some other mates, I'd suggest getting your tetanus shot before looking for this. TFTC

Good find a lot of spiders tho. Tftc.

Quick find despite my caching skills being rusty, found with Peter and Ally. Tftc

I’ll take the L tonight couldn’t find it will bring the troops with me next time

Pretty obvious spot! Slide to open the lid

Tftc couldnt sign log as i didnt want to ruin cache

After waiting for a loitering muggle to move on, I did what was needed and squeezed my name in.

Tftf This was a cool find

Chur

The magic forces were keeping it in place, but not much room on log sheet to sign.

The kids and I have come up to see the cousins and to spend the day at Rainbows End. I’ve snuck out for this nearby cache while they are on the go carts. Quickly located cache log book is full and needs replacing signed where I could find space.

Found with toby84

Easy find in obvious place.
In the area today...

Tftc

Had a look around in what we thought was an obvious spot and after a few sets of lights we managed to grab the cache, sign and replace undetected. Fun quick find. TFTC

In the area doing the Adventure cache so walk right by this on the way to our third WP. Might as well sign this well we were here. All good with the cache

Found it but couldn’t open it. That was fun to look for

Found it, great spot and wasn’t too far to bike from home. I have placed a ladybug stone somewhere near the cache, to make up for there being no hints.

Zusammen mit Panne Koppa und Mini_JayJay bei einem kleinen Spaziergang ohne Probleme gefunden.

Came around here on a lunchtime visit from work. Had been before but not found it, but recent logs helped so came back today, and sure enough it was right there. These containers are rare, I found one previously around Pakuranga a while back. All good here, signed and replace, and back to the office. TFTC

Down in Auckland from Whangarei for the weekend to drop our niece off at the airport. After an early morning jog, before the heat of the day arrived, around the trails by Mangere lagoon, we headed over to Manukau so the other half could take the credit card for a walk ( marriage guidance 101 ) in the aircon, whilst I took a walk outside in the heat.

After doing the Adventure Lab and then the bonus, had just enough time before rescuing the credit card, to walk up the road to this one. Cache was soon located and no problems opening to sign the log, befire replacing safe and secure as found. TFTC

Nice cache. But really hard to get OPEN couldnt open it so took photo as evidence TFTC

Love it bacon man wud love to know where you got ur cache from

The log is very full.

Neat cache but not enough to sign for our group the NZGA caching group. TFTC

Took the train down to this area to get the lab caches, also transited through from the airport on public trains and busses. Nice walk through the area. Greetings from California. About to join 31 others for a geo tour and cruise. TFTC

Found 2.45pm
Creat time to do this cache with nobody around. Quick find but log is full. SLTFTC

Find number 5972. A few comings and goings around here today so I sat and did the business. The log was full but I found a spot to sign. Placed it back. Thank you for the placement.

Tftc needs new paper

Finally a cache smile. Had car serviced today and therefore time to waste. But how can geocaching be time wasting. Think not...

It took me a long time but I found it. My first cache in New Zealand (Nr. 100). Thank you.

Wanted to come out today and collect some more caches towards the mystery at the museum challenge and this was one that we could get.After two dnfs today we were pleased to park up close by walk across the road and make a quick find.

Tftc! Quick easy find on a Saturday morning the log may need replacing soon as there was only two more empty slots left

Court was obviously in session today, the were a large number of people loitering about outside, however it was drizzly so they were all quite a way from us so we went unnoticed as he found and signed this one. TFTC

In Auckland with friends with kids, they wanted to go to Rainbows end. Got off the train from Britomart, and there was Rain which we weren't prepared for, but this was short lived, and soon to End. I stopped as others carried on, but Searchwisely soon realised what I was doing and had it in hand before me.

Nice old style container. Found while in Manukau shopping area. TFTC

Found after a nice day at Rainbow's End together with Greenkiwikid the middle one. We enjoyed the day and finding a cache was a nice closure for the day. Tftc.

What a nice day. Nice little cache, found it quickly. Tftc

Merci pour la cache. Faite avec un trio de mamans. Merci de Nouvelle~Calédonie

Couldn’t open if we were meant to... TFTC!! Neat item!

Neat container, easy find once the path cleared. TFTC

Honestly don’t know where this one is.

A nice quick easy find while out with Jag50 and Aiden29.

Out on a cruisy caching day with Merlot58 and Jag50, as I was recovering from a cold. It was the perfect day to come and find this one on a quiet Sunday. We parked outside the Police Station and walked to GZ. Didn't take too long to locate the cache. First one of these I've seen.

Out with Merlot58 and Aiden29. Sunday morning was an ideal time to nab this one. We haven't found one of these cache containers before.

TFTC
Out at rainbows end for the day so a quick cache before heading home.

I'm in Auckland for a few days for a bit of a mini-break, and had arranged to meet up with a mate. He suggested Manukau shopping centre so that gave me the opportunity to look for some caches I have never searched for before.
I had a few minutes to spare, so gave this one a go. I can see why stealth is needed as you definitely felt like you needed extra pairs of eyes with people coming and going all around you.
Having said that, the cache was exactly where I thought it would be, so was only the work of a minute to grab it, sign the log and replace exactly as found. The tin is getting a little rusty, and the little plastic bag has split, but otherwise the log is in good order.
Thanks for placing the cache.

Should've checked the first place more carefully, took us a lot longer than it should have. Tftc

Hmmm. We had the gz to ourselves but this one took us a while. Not actually difficult. Maybe we're just tired. Got it though. Thanks!

Needing a cache to keep up my streak I thought this being a nice easy cache I would do it. Got to GZ looked in a few obvious place until spotting it. Then I used the Norfolk pine as shield from muggles to sign the log replaced as found. Thanks for the cache.

A nice day to pick up some geocaches, enjoyed the sunshine and the fresh air, thanks for placing this cache

Nice easy find for a dot day. All intact. Hope i never need to engage the services provided at this spot

Nice Hide in Auckland for the weekend

Nice hide still nice and dry

Ryan took his bike on the train to this area of town and cycled around this part of town picking up some caches to try and get us closer our next milestone. No problems here. TFTC

Since it is Sunday we thought to quickly grab this one as we were in the area. Don't think I'd fancy this spot on a busy court day so today is ideal. We parked around the corner near the police station and watched the shrieking families on the rollercoaster at Rainbow's End - looks like a few people had an enjoyable end to the school holidays. Thanks for the cache, all good here.

Second attempt at this one. No idea what i was doing the first time as this was a very quick find with no one around. Thanks.

After a previous DNF here, when the cache was actually missing, we headed back tonight to fill a dot day on the calendar. Fortunately there are not many people around after 8 at night and this was a nice quick find. TFTC.

This one could be very difficult depending on the time of day but we were fortunate enough to pick a reasonably quiet time so our biggest problem was finding a place to park.
Once we got to GZ we still needed to use a lot of stealth to retrieve the cache as there was a lot of passing traffic and a few random muggles walking here and there.
After the log was signed we had to wait about ten minutes to replace it as a couple of teenagers appeared and were in no hurry to move on.
Nice hide, thanks Bartfound.

Once I parked up in the right place it was a quick walk to GZ, just as well the area is dead at the moment, this place is usually too busy to get the cache. thanks for the cache.

Took a little while to find - it was in the first place we looked, but had become dislodged so we didn't spot it until we'd checked a lot of other places.

Log to follow

Found it. TFTC

Last day in NZ. We fly out at 3PM, bound for Denver, Colorado USA. Had some time to kill and didn't want to eat our last NZ meal at the airport, so we came out here. Ate at the coffee shop near the bus stop and I went to find some geocachers while the family used their last dollars at the Countdown. Didn't find the nearby "halfway" cache but looked for this a few minutes and scored. Probably my last Kiwi cache, unless I find one at the airport. Thanks!

On our way to the movies so decided to stop and find a cache close by. Spotted a car park outside the police station and was a quick walk to the cache site

I was out in the area on another mission and had some spare time for caching. Found in the first place I looked.

Ooops yellow lines.. Had to park the car bit far and walked to GZ. I think I chose the perfect timing as no muggles around here at all. The previous DNFs put me into confusion, but found it quickly. tftc Bartfound.

Feel like someone's taken it did but find searched for awhile xx

My first time searching and DNF I obviously need more practice. Will try again tomorrow!

I was up in Auckland for work for a few days running training courses. However, still needed to get my cache for the day in the mix!!

Today was the evening before the last one, so after grabbing some dinner with the work colleague I was up with, I begged him to stop at a cache! (We had a hire car, however being under 25, I wasn't allowed to drive it, making me quite dependent!! )

So I picked this as something that looked nice quick and easy - hopefully the work colleague wouldn't get too bored too quickly!!

But all good, and a quick find

Consec caching day # 1212

TFTC!!

Fortunately not too much traffic here today; a cache only for quiet weekend days. TFTC.

After seeing the Road Chip with my cousin and nephew we grabbed this cache nearby so I could continue my 50 day streak with the South East Auckland Crew challenge. This is day 45 easy grabbed and replaced. Tftc

#1610. The family headed down to Rainbow's End today. After enjoying the theme park, we decided to check for any geocaches in the area. This looked like it would be a good one to do on a public holiday. So found a carpark nearby and a had a short walk down to the GZ I spied a likely hiding spot and was rewarded with a quick find of the cache. Nice container. Haven't seen one of this type before. Signed the dry logbook and returned cache as found. Hopefully wont have to spend any time at the district court again. Thanks for the cache.

Driving home through a beautiful Sunday evening sunset and decided to checkout the local geocaches. Parked by the police station and walked a few minutes to find this tiny cache!

Paper was a bit wet as bag seal is broken

I was with @esthercrummer - I actually found it after she wouldn't share the hint and recent activity. Looks like I have the skills! TFTC

Vistra and I decided to make an early morning of it and try and get some numbers around the airport, particularly some of the newer ones, parked by the police station and walked to it, quick easy find before a muggle spotted us.

Having finished work for the year and being greeted with a nice fine day, yorkshirekiwi83 and I decided to head out and do a bit of caching around Manukau and Mangere. Parked around the corner and walked around the Courthouse to make a quick find at GZ. TFTC!
