Flying Leaves (Wanaka) Wanaka, South Island, New Zealand

Played the game and visited the place. Tftc

Also found on a spot nearby

Found about 30m from zero, added our name to log and rehid where found.

As this cache has been out of action for too long and does not meet the guidelines, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

No idea what is going on here. Cache type is traditional, yet there is mention of some strange 'mission'. There apparently isn't even a logbook any more. (edit) The coords are in a grassy field, so there is no way there is a cache nearby anyway. This is not a cache (any more?)...

First time here

Found a container with a note in it. Not sure if that was the cache or not?

TB out

Visited during passing disc games. No sign of container at GZ coords. TFTC

Visited

We played 18 holes on the course and then left a little souveneir in form of a tb on the box. Cheers from Sweeden, TFTC!

Walked up the hill through the bmx track, nice location.. thanks..!!

Found the spot Thanks for the walk

Night mission done on New Year's Eve, 11:55pm

After the fireworks for New years got this cache at 12 mins into the new year whoop whoop Happy New year

Before heading off to the glaciers today, I was very happy to explore some more sites in beautifull Wanaka
This was sort of a virtual cache - nothing there [?]
But anyway: thanks to the owner for showing this awesome place - and cheers from Germany!

Was in Wanaka recently, and was disappointed to find this cache had been muggled and obviously completely gone, even though it hadn't been marked as disabled.

Now... um, there once were "virtual caches" where going to a particular landmark and taking a photo or answering a question earned you a smiley. The nearest to you is Goldfield http://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GCDDAB_goldfield-otago. However, virtual caches are no longer permitted http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=401

I would suggest that you either:
- buy a very small cache container to tuck away out of sight at the current GZ, or
- move the cache a few metres to somewhere which is better hidden (you can move the cache coordinates a short distance by yourself - anything over that you need to ask a reviewer to do for you) http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=61 or
- sadly, sometime you just have to archive a cache once nasty muggles find where it is.

Hope I was at the right place, logged in a natural way...

Nothing to find . Thanks for the location.

Would be great to have a box and a logbook
Such a good idea!!!!
Thx

Yebo but that's a cache?
Hmmm what about some maintenance to turn your work (lovely description!) onto a box?
Tftc

**************** Unfortunately even though I have maintained and replaced the logbook several times, it seems as though people have kept removing it/stealing it from the site. Sorry guys. For that reason the cache is the landmark itself. Feel free to leave things for others though it might be stolen. ***********

Nothing found.

Took 4 of us each contributing a bit to the solution. We had no idea what the baskets were about so a local filled us in on the rules of the game. One of my favourite quotes is that "It will be all right in the end. If it's not right it is not the end". So we kept working on it. Took a while but Mrs Redink worked it out at last. TFTC

A plastic bag + stones in it = geocache? NO WAY! Needs to be checked by owner...

Found this one a while ago on a trip down south. TFTC!!!

Watched some people playingthe other game. There was only a bag and pebble in this one, no log book, and no pen. Just a small plastic bag. Needs a bit of maintenance.

Well, I think I found it. All that was there was a plastic bag with stones in it and a pencil. It was a long way from GZ if my GPS wasn't having a bad day.

No log book.

Easy find if you read the Description even Though Coordinates are a little off the Mark. TFTC

Found it!

Finally found. Co-odds seemed way off for us. But figured out where it was. TFTC.

GPS well off but easy find in the end. Cold but sunny day. TFTC

Quick find.

knitted together as a family to find come this. tftc

Nice easy find, we went early in the morning so no muggles. :~}

Tricky but not to bad. Just a little off

It would help if I knew what sort of a container I was looking for. Also, the gps seemed to change so I'm not sure if I am even in the right place. Bit disappointing

No jokes I just found it. Yeah the gps is off by a bit

Coordinates changed from:
S 44° 41.401 E 169° 08.196

Coordinates changed to:
S 44° 41.414 E 169° 08.200

Distance from original: 79 feet or 24.1 meters.
Sorry about the coordinates, these should be the proper ones!

Surprise FTF here 2nd in 2 days Found more from good luck than anything as GPS was all over the show

Found it after a lot of hunting GPS well out. Maybe I should have paid more attention to the verse that might have helped. lol. TFTC

Cords out a bit. Found this crafty item thought it must have been it even though no geocaching marking on it. TFTC.
