In the area for a bit of shopping so thought I would see if I could locate this, initially was thinking this isn't easy but then I saw it. TFTC
29/07/14 14:40 After finding that parking was free for 2hrs at Te WareWhare and having a coffee with a mate nearby I retrieved my car and parked across the road from this. Could've walked but... Good hide & true to name. Sometimes the simplest hides are the best Cheers, GC.
Hamilton night market nearby gave some good cover, found with bumbasics & asylinn. Map pinpoint seemed pretty on the mark - didn't rely on the GPS at all.
finally another one ticket off on second attempt with the help of asylinn and ahbakai TFTC
12.50pm - I think we got a bit casual in our approach to this one and expected it to leap out at us. Just use your eyes I say. SLTFTC
Do I feel like caching today??? After yesterday's expedition in the rain... Heck yes!!! Gap (of Fap and Gap) was keen, and we hit the trail...
An easy one? In this place and with my current eye condition, this cache could have been a nano. I can't believe that this took several minutes and a couple of sweeps to find. I guess I was waiting for the cache to jump out and say, "BOO!" TFTC.

Tftc. Nice camo.

Found originally as part of Rebel98 team, now created own account, re-logging as rustynz
Parked on the nearby side street (I think it was a school?) and walked across to GZ. A short search and we had found the cache. Thanks again for the cache.

Found parking nearby and then made our way to GZ, the GPS did not like the nearby building, but after a short search the cache was ours. Thanks for the hide and bringing us here.
I should have trusted my geocachers instinct...I looked in this area first, but not quite in the right place...then I spent ages hunting in the wrong places - the building upsetting the GPS and giving me a large hunt area...but then I went back to where I started and found it - the camo blended in well.

Found this cache while on a trip into town, picked up two trackables on the way.
A quick stop to drop a TB as I'm going overseas and didn't want to take this with me.
Cruising around picking up a few quick ones before heading to my motel

After attempting one of your hard ones it was a joy to have an easy one.

Out and about with KiwifruitsNZ collecting caches in Hamilton in between events today. An easy one, as the title suggests! TFTC
A day collecting some caches with Vamber in Hamilton in between organised events.
A quick find and dropped off a trackable.

I was decoy while steed made the find, but I don't think he was faced with the offending rodent. We left a TB.
Went back today with rubber gloves and all but was unable to remove the offending rodent. Hopefully nature and the weather will get rid of any remains soon. Just a bit further north of the cache was some evidence suggesting a vagrant may be sleeping in the area. So keep your eyes open at this cache.
In town for a special celebration, having time to do a couple of caches with my geomate. Saw smelt the defunct rodent...

Yes, easy find on my daily lunchtime walk. Much easier to dodge the muggles than I expected. Watch out for the dead small rat that is nearby. Gave me a bit of a start!! Thanks very much nufrat
Accurate coordinates so no clue didn't matter. Looked a bit dodgy to the passers by though. TFTC
Yes it was a easy one, when I found it. Started looking for a different type of cache entirely and maybe it a lot more difficult than it should of been. Thanks for the neat placement.
Third for the day and they seem to be getting better. This cache was of a good size and provided enough cover that I didn't feel like I was being watched by the passers by. Glad to see that here are still some go caches being placed in Hamilton and not just throw downs.
Unexpectedly found myself not only in town today but about 30 meters from GZ so my son and I decided to have a sneaky look around while my wife completed an erand nearby. The cache was a little larger than I was expecting and not where I was expecting to find it, but found easily enough. Thanks for placing it.
Spied this listing, and thought at first it would be in the lovely park area. But upon approach, discovered it was across the road.
Divide and conquer was the rule, as two of us looking would draw attention on this busy road. Cache blended in so well, that we had to unite again to find it!

Not so easy for me but got there in the end. Such a big container too but not quite where intuition says it would be.
Many thanks
Many thanks
Was sitting here in traffic a few weeks ago and thought it would be a good place for a cache...turns out it was!
Really was an easy one, spotted from a distance, but due to it's camo it wouldn't get noticed easily
Thank you for the easy one. Wouldn't like to do it in the daytime, I am not good at looking inconspicuous when searching in such high muggle areas.
Spent way too long on another cache so need to come here and relieve the stress and fill in another dot day.

Driving near by and just had to stop since I figured the muggles would be busy at the cricket. Bumped into nufrat and psychrn which made an easy find slightly easier. Left my pen in the cache for forgetful cachers like myself
congratulations warthog, FTF, seems you forgot to put the date but that's ok we all forget things,
cam you FTL
cam you FTL
FTF can only be claimed by warthog, first to stroke that ink on that clean blank sheet hahahahaha
Am I FTF? Why is Warthog written in book? If I am FTF, very happy as is my first time.
Thanks for the cache, so easy was hard for a while.
Nope, not this time, bigger
