Wall, due to the cache being replaced a lot deeper into the hide, the tree has now claimed the cache, its still there, but to extract it will cause damage so its time to let go. Sleep well and lets see about a new one nearby.. BB
Found but couldn't retrieve from tree. Think need pliers as tree grown tight round it. Have photo if you want.
Out for the afternoon with my muggle sister.
Too many muggles here for a thorough look.
Hate it when I can't find when someone in single digit finds says it was easy.

This cache container found it's way by photo onto another facebook page not connected to geocaching, a CO inspection found it on the ground, so let's give it a rest for a week and then put it back when things have cooled down a bit.. BB
new container placed, should now be an easy find. Please replace carefully. BB
So here was I trying blend in with all the dog walkers, when one of the dogs walkers asked if I was geocaching, lol, turns out it was Ctsnipper86's wife, with her help I was directed to the correct tree, and had the cache in hand, pretty clever cache, gets a favourite point from me, tftc Blenheim Bear
One of the most impressive caches we've seen! Really well set up! Enjoyed this one very much. Thank you for taking the time/effort to set this up dragon gem. We need more caches like this.

)Great hide, very cool. Coordinates a bit out. Muggles playing disc golf. Found with Racheldel
Boxing day in new Plymouth and this cache was signalled out for a puzzle cache back home so off we went to find this one and it did not take to long,it was found lying on the ground which was surprising so we have replaced where we think it should be, TWEEZERS is a definite here otherwise all good here.tftc and the smiley
Tricky hide but soon found! Nice camo. Definitely need your tweezers for this one. TFTC
Yay! Perfect day for Geocaching! Checked a few trees and finally found this one!! BTW just in case you're interested, they're Norwegian maples.
Armed with knowledge of an old hide type here and determination to find the cache and save the CO a visit I spent over thirty minutes going from tree to tree double checking all through to quadruple checking the most likely ones without joy.
with thanks to Tommygun9 I visited the cache this morning and reinstalled it ready for spring. Let's see how it lasts. I need to keep a closer eye on it I suspect. BB
Well now that was a rather interesting hide! Must have stared at that a number of times. Definitely was not there last time I looked..... I think......
That was well hidden.
That was well hidden.
Lots of really good spots for it to be but no cache found...... Will need to come back and try again.
Searched for quite a while with 2 of us and couldn't find. Area was very wet at the time
Great spot, thanks! Few muggles out playing frisbee golf so had to be extra sneaky.
Checked cache is still there, then replaced wet log, now good to go. Camo fading a bit, so it's a bit easier to find at present. Happy caching BB
Found but the log was wet and I could get it out so I didn't write on it. Very clever
Planning a replacement cache ASAP, last two (or three) have been muggled. Should be back in place soon.

Funny how a little bit of camo makes all the difference. You have to be looking very carefully to spot this. TFTC.
Stunning afternoon exploring NP parks. Had a nice swim before hunting this cache. Good find to Mrs Gadget. We love these more creative hides. Gets a fav. Tftc.
Container grown in. Can cache owner come replace log as lid wasn't on and log is soaked and damaged
Checked cache, a bit open but not broken by any means. Replaced container with small bison, now a bit harder to find.. BB
Cache nice and snug in its home here. Quick sign to get out before gates close. Tftc
Took a bit as GPS a bit off. Checked all Canadian trees, nice walk around with Courtney Great hide thanks.
Just happened to be in the area and wondered if there was a cache nearby. Easy find, my gps was spot on
awesome park, will return in the summer months, camo a little worn but still good TFTC
Juggling 2 dogs a parent and a friend- I found it!!!! It's my 9th birthday on Monday - so hope I find my 60th before then!!
Cool hide. Awkward in winter when no leaves to distinguish the tree. Cordinates were out but got it all same
