Drove through on the weekend for a maintenance check. The spot is overgrown so time to archive this one.

Second look for this one, this time uninterrupted. Pretty quick find. Thanks BFG for the new log. Tftc!
Not sure what the hint’s referring to, but found the container after a short elimination search. Added a small waterproof log. TFTC Just-Lookin!
Found but log a bit too wet (and sticky!) to sign - hence photo. Wish I had some spare paper on me!
Visiting friends in Te Horo for New Year's eve, and while everyone was sleeping in this morning, I went to for a little walk and a cheeky geocache. Quick find!
Log book needs replacing.
Thank you for the cache!

Travelling back from Wellington after a few days away. Managed to collect this cache for a challenge I have been working on. So pleased to have hit the bullseye with this one.
Headed down to Waikanae for some caches. Quick detour here. Didn’t take long to find the cache although it wasn’t the first place I looked. Thanks for the smiley.
Found after realising the hint is out of date, "base of concrete" would be better. Maintenance is also needed - the logbook is very crumpled and soggy. Just managed to sign.
#1190. Had to read previous logs to realise that the hint needs changing. Concrete would be better. The cache is very damp, as is the log - it really needs to be bagged, if not double bagged. Not quite sure of the significance of the cache name.
Nice spot though. Tftc Just-Lookin.

A little side trip from the main highway heading south. Quick find once I stopped looking for the hint! TFTC!!
One of six found in the area before heading to Otaki for lunch, and another six caches after lunch. Took a brief moment to locate this one. Don’t know if this one has suffered from geo-creep – the hint certainly isn’t relevant! #3116. TFTC.
Thanks Just-Lookin for the cache. It’s #1041 for us. We found your cache on 16 January 2019. Quick find while trawling the backblocks of Te Horo. Hint is completely wrong! Container may have been moved at some stage but is fine where it is now.
Day 2 of our New Years trip up to the North Island. Today we traveled from Upper Hutt through the winding Akatarawa Rd up to Palmerston North. Glad to be off the State Highway and out of the slow traffic for abit. An easy find here but the big wet bag is making the log damp. While I signed Mum removed the wet soggy cardboard from the bottom of the container and gave the log a new dry bag. Thanks for the effort involved in placing and creating this cache for all of us to enjoy. 
Despite the hint not really fitting, it was a quick find =)
Found at 12:02 - #8299 - on a 5 week trip in New Zealand

Found the cache but the hint is a bit misleading. Like the 65 arrows name, very good and a nice easy place to park. Thanks CO for the cache.
**taybee** is caching again and taking the old man long for the ride

Quick find here to day thanks cant find the arrows had a bow in the van to shoot the arrows with
All in good order, sign log book as **taybee** or **tb** TFTC Log by Gsak

It was due to be a glorious afternoon, and after running a 10km race yesterday I was looking for a few caches to do with my son that wouldn't be too challenging on the ol' legs!
So I figured this run through the back roads around Te Horo would be perfect, and so it turned out to be.
The cache title makes it easy to figure out where GZ is, but the Hint doesn't match the cache location currently, although it was still an easy find. The container and log were in adequate condition.
Signed the log as "T & T" on behalf of myself and ThatWeirdGuy04, and returned exactly as found.
Thanks to the efforts of CO's such as yourself, to initially place and then to maintain caches, this is a great activity for my son and I to spend time together, and fantastic for encouraging us to find new parts of this great country - thank you.

Had a bit of time for a detour on my way home and all was quiet on these roads so I could park right next to GZ
The cache container was a bit wet but the plastic bag was doing it's job and thus the log was signable.
Thanks for the cache !

Found on nice weekend afternoon. Cache name spot on but hint not so much. Beware of the electric fence. TFTC
Good park and grab. Found with Rachnz and Sweatyyetinz. We didn’t go by the hint and found it. Tftc
Out this way for work today. Felt a bit exposed to muggles here as out in the open with no other reason to stop in the countryside! Searched by the sign first but once widened my search a little cache was easily found. TFTC
Another find in the rain, and tiptoeing across the grass to find the cache. TFTC

Another quick find for LD. He was out the car so quick and back again in a flash. Thanka for the loop Just Lookin
The title of this cache had me imagining all sorts of things - none of which were right. But the reason for the title became clear on approach so I figured this was likely to be a quick stop. Quick find as anticipated so TFTC.
As far as I intend to wonder from SH 1 tonight now that it's dark and still plenty of passing traffic. Found between cars going to and fro. Thanks for the placement Just-Lookin.
Last time we were here it was bucketing down and decided to quit for the day. Today, however was a beautiful autumn day and driving around this loop was very pleasant.
Glad Mr BB spotted this one quickly as quite a few cars about. (Signed as Bates B) Greetings from the UK. TFTC #7212
A sleepy dog spotted me, but only after I had already found the cache. Bleah!
The travelling fox is impish =°µ°=

It's really great to get off the main drag and have a good look at the surrounding countryside. What a lovely area this is. TFTC

.Oh now I get it!!! One of those ones that all fall into place on approach but it did remind me of the Little Arrows song. TFTC #9217
Sixth find for the day...kids are loving the easy finds...so nice to be out in the rural setting...tftc
#2734. Heading north today on a short excursion to find yet another skindo A-Z cache and build up my numbers to get over 250 cache finds in September. Stopped here at the Te Horo region to find several more caches for the quest. I got well and truly muggled here. The neighbour was out for a walk along the road and saw me searching for the cache. But he knew I was geocaching. I guess having met other cachers here previously. Took a minute to find as the container had rolled into the nearby paddock. I showed the neighbour the logbook and explained why we do this strange hobby. Then replaced the cache where I think it was meant to be. Thanks for hiding it here.
I was heading south, misinterpreted my son's comment of the turn's coming up on the left, and turned off too soon! Rather then curse my navigation, I took the opportunity to collect this one that I was unable to spot last time I was here. TFTC.
Out with a friend to collect some caches on the loop on this sunny Saturday. TFTC
