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 the last reviewer note.

Hi DanielHurri

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.

Regards

Not sure if that was meant to be so easy to spot from 10m away. It could use a bit more cover. However, left as found. Log is nice and dry which is not aways the case for these containers.

16-Apr-15
Nice easy find for my fourth for the evening. In general I don't like night caching but sometimes the torch makes it easier to find by reflecting on the plastic! Cache in good condition; TFTC.

A quick find for my number 999- now for the big one Big Grin

Nice spot to sit and relax for a few minutes and quite sheltered from the wind.

Would like to have explored the reserve but will leave that for another day as I have a particular cache in mind for #1000 so will come back to do the other caches here later.

TFTC.

Quick find.

#196. Fairly straight forward find once the correct side of the road was determined. Cache was quite out in open so placed it a bit more discreetly. TFTC
 
08-Dec-14
Good one

After a holiday of full-on caching, it was nice to go on a bit of a walk to get a single cache. TFTC

30-Jul-14
Last morning in Wellington do a final chance to grab a few caches before heading to work and flying home. While grabbing the caches is great I can't say that I manage to get in much sightseeing in the dark.
Being so early in the morning the area was quiet so no issues with passing muggels

Thanks for the placement
 
20-Jul-14
Find #2004. A miserable day, wet & cold so great for picking up odd caches in the Tawa area. Very wet underfoot getting to this one. SL TFTC
 
17-Jul-14
My GPS started playing up here and insisted I was standing on the opposite side of the road, so I just ignored it and went looking in the likely places. Didn't take long at all to turn up the cache. A lovely bush walk across the road, not terribly well known, and in fact the site of my first cache placement a few years back.
