The cache went missing when the council chopped down the tree it was in and we are moving away from Stonefields now so we won’t replace it.

I apologise for the generic log, but today was all about the numbers. I am attending WENZ in 10 days time, and I want to have the Mega event as my 1000th cache, so I have only these few days to find about 90 caches.
So whilst I'm staying in Auckland for a few days, I wanted to take a look around an area I hadn't previously visited, which was Stonefields and the surrounding area.

So parking near GZ, my GPS brought me to one particular spot that seemed like a good place to hang a cache. Sure enough it was, as it took me a few minutes to locate the actual container. But once found, the log was signed and replaced exactly as found and then onto the next attempt.

Thanks for the cache.
 
07-Oct-18
Thanks, that was a great cache. Very well hidden, not easy but not super difficult. Enjoyed it.
 
27-Sep-18

21-Jul-18
I had no plans for today so I decided to grab my bike and do a nice trip at Stonefields, - a really lovely and clean area. I enjoyed my ride and all the nice little parks and the Geocaches there! The weather was also good so I had 14 finds and two DNFs at the end.
My first idea was right so I quickly had the logbook in my hand. Waited for a quiet moment and put it back.
Thanks for hiding!
