Logs
I am 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 OuttatimeThis 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.RegardsTheCoddiwompler
Hint was useful but extremely overgrown with very painful blackberry prickles so search area was limited.
Searched with doggydoo12. Found the hint location but the area is overgrown with blackberry so couldn't actually scrounge around too deeply.
Too wet to log and camo case is missing base. Couldn't replace as had no gear thanks for site though
Nice easy find with a good hint.
Cache needs some love.

NIce cool morning to be biking the trail. Thanks for the rest. Log paper is saturated and needs replacing.
On the return leg between Dunham Point Reserve and Atiamuri. A couple of geocaches along the way with this being the first. A quick find but the container is damaged and the log paper quite wet. TFTC
Parked across the road and crossed over to the lookout to look out at the bridge. That's a pretty boring bridge. All function and no form. Why did the CO bring me here? Ah - for the old bridge that no longer exists.
I took the wrong route to the cache and had to back out - quite literally! Found a better route in. Alas I was not able to sign the log. It was very manky due partially to the broken container. Photo attached.
Travelling north to Rotorua from Lower Hutt for Christmas - its a two whole day journey, because I keep stopping at places like this. Actually the reason I am in Whakamaru/Mangakino is because here is one of only six caches in the country needed to complete a challenge cache in Kapiti. And while I am here I may as well see what Mangakino has to offer. See? I did say it takes two days to drive to Rotorua from Upper Hutt!

Easily found but cache is in state of disrepair. Needs new container and a dry log if any one has the resources. Thanks for placing here, we are admiring the old maori fortifications and pa site from near here.
Found but unfortunately log is wet and pill container is broken will need replacing
Easy find with the internet Remember driving over the old bridge back in the day. TFTC!
Not only is there a fibre nearby but also a lot of brambles. Cache was hidden in the kind of place I would have hidden it, so it was a quick find then I could get on my way home (and then spend 2 hours sat in Auckland traffic)
Part of a small tour around the Atiamuri area. Nice to see the MTB track extended to Atiamuri Township.
Another nice diversion on our days caching road trip with Mum. She duly spotted this one. TFTC.
Almost took the wrong path but correctes ourselves straight away. Another nice spot along this beauty of a river. Thanks
We saw a geocach on the map that needs to have a new log book so added a new one. TFTC
Great place to stop on our way home to Hamilton from Napier. Had a nice wander around looking at the scenery and found the cache pretty easily with the clue TFTC
We parked over the road to do a short walk along the Waikato River and I noticed this cache here. It was a quick find following the hint. Tftc!
Be aware if the berry bush thorns. A little in the sharp side. Log book really full. Just signed where we could. TFTC
A quick find in the pouring rain. Looking forward to doing the river trails by bike! TFTC
Whilst out on a mission with EyeSpyBen , soon had this one in hand, signed and returned,TFTC
Decided not to chase the PWGT cache down this road so did this one as I turned the car around. All good here thanks.
Left Taihape later than I'd hoped thanks to a certain thing taking Extra time and I paid the penalty with a reduced itinerary. Caching still happened though.
The weekend is here and for a change I've got a four-dayer planned with a trip across from Taupo to Napier to have a couple of nights in Havelock North and local area, followed by a trip back across the Napier-Taihape Road to stay at our daughters for a day before watching the football on Monday and then Coming Home, he's coming home, capperz is coming home (football didn't as it turned out! Well done to Italy.
A few nice caches found, not huge numbers so quality rather than quantity. A few more of the PWGT caches as well as some others here and there, thanks to all COs.

Quick walk up the old road to the new technology and the cache was in hand. TFTC
A quick find once I found the spot referenced in the hint. I went on a road trip following the "Mega that wasn't" in Auckland over Labour weekend. TFTC.
On a trip down from Whangarei to Taupo today and needed to break up the journey with several stops to limber up the passengers sore back. What a good excuse to also grab a cache or two at the same time.
Once at GZ, this was a quick find thanks to the good hint. TFTC

We stopped here for a cache before the threatening rain arrived. Found it and then spent most of the rest of the journey to Auckland with rain on the roof.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Had a lovely chat to a lovely man picking blackberries and told them all about geocaching
We had a very nice holiday in New Zealand. Almost every day beautiful weather. We traveled with the camper home from the north to the south island. we have found a lot of very nice caches. Thanks for showing the nice places where we found the caches.
Greetings from the Netherlands

There is a well worn track straight to this one. Must be popular. Cheers for the cache.
No problems finding this one today although more log paper will be needed soon. Keen to bike this bike trail in the future. TFTC
A good place for a leg stretch on our journey north. We have a fascination with our past, especially where roads we remember traveling on used to go. This spot also has a bridge and river gorge to add to the interest. We noted the comments concerning blackberry, and were reluctant to do much searching, but in fact we retrieved the cache unscathed. TFTC.

Heading to Wellington for a Friend's Wake, and of course, we are taking the scenic route and must grab a couple of caches along the way. This was a good chance to stretch our legs.
No problems with the find. TFTC

Thanks Outtatime for placing this cache however I agree with Bogan88 and others who don't enjoy entering blackberry or other prickly areas...
I cleared some of the dead vines but if I ever return and happen to have a machete or rake I will clear the horrible plant well away from the cache

Found with a sister during our expedition to NZ (from CZ), where we explored part of the North Island and could visit our classmates and friends that we have not seen for several years, as it is here, in Auckland and Napier live ... Thank you for cache ...
Well... found it but got stuck in the BlackBerry bush and kiwikenny had to come rescue me!
On the way home after a week cycling in the Wairarapa Region. Thanks for hiding Outtatime
