Gorby Pretends It's Not Easy - South (Auckland) Auckland, North Island, New Zealand
By Gorbygorbachov on 17-Nov-14. Waypoint GC5GNWE

I went and visited my cache today, it's there, just took some searching, it was covered up with pine needles though.

Alas it's time to archive, this type of cache I have here is no longer available in the shops, and so since I can't complete the whole series, North, South, West and East I might as well archive the other two.

Nice hide took me a little while.
Tftc gets a fav from me.

You're welcome Harsha!

Finished work earlier than expected... Yaaay go and find a different cache. Yes... go for Gorby's yelled Sakti..!! OK, then we nutties went out on a search, for that fine big nut... After bit of a search here and there we managed to find it and part among us.. It was so yummy... Sakti was bit disappointed that she could see any squirrels around....
P.S : I should have introduced her to squirrel nutcase instead, when he was there for GIFF. LOL!!

Very good find today while geocaching around the area.

Thanks for the fun, good cache!

As we had just been at the start of the road with the Turtle, we could not leave without attempting this one at the end of the road. took a few minutes of looking around. some one has a very nice secluded lounge set up back here. I avoided the gun toting squirrels as I was being very stealthy not to arouse them. I found the golden egg they are keeping an eye on. TFTC

For some reason didn't see this cache until we had completed the one down the road. Couldn't possibly leave without a little look. Probably took us longer than it should but brought a smile to our faces when found as it was exactly what we thought it should be. TFTC

I'd put the co-ords for Not another Lake into my car gps, and as I looked at my phone as I hopped out of the car I found I was only 10m from this one! A nice quick find here as I knew what I was looking for having found another one in this series. Tftc Gorby

GPS spot on. Didn't take too long. It's a great camo. Very natural

Finally found this cache after what must have been my 5th or 6th visit down there. With much help from super nanny. My first visit I got caught out by Peter babich.

Cool cache not to tricky to find tftc

I had a few hours to spare today to go and find a few caches. I decided to head west and wander around a few locations familiar and unfamiliar - well its all changed since I lived here over 25 years ago. Ah ha - wow - so long since I've been round here. I remember some pretty cool westie parties back here in the 80's... Anyway, GPS took me straight to the cache - and a clever one it was too - although the log was quite wet. TFTC, Biggles.

Checked cache this morning, all good.

Out n about picking up a few, rain being held at bay thankfully

TFTC

Searched and searched with no luck, made a quick walk to 'not another lake' to clear the head then gave it one last go as I knew this would be worth the find. A couple of minutes searching then BOOM found it almost straight away, just had to expand my search area a bit and there it was. Awesome cache!! Cheers Gorby!

Awesome hint. Well worth the hunt

Thanks for letting me know kw12, will get there and attend to it.

2nd time here but this time was successful.

The string has fallen of the cache

Lots of Building and development work sounds all around us as we approached this one. Not so difficult to find before returning stealthily the way we had approached, and unknowingly till afterwards, skirting the naturist club boundary.

Had a big look but nothing seen

Knowing what to expect makes it simple.

Vistra and I spent part of the day today gathering caches or elements of caches to help solve others later. Decided this time that the West had gathered a few up again and it was time to clear some of them.

Quick easy find and title gave good hint. TFTC

Went out for a few hours today with yorkshirekiwi83 to clean up a few more Westie caches. A nice quick find here, look forward to finding North, East and West now! TFTC!

Second in the series for us today, nice quick find and the last cache of the day for us. Thanks

No worries with the nuts in this series. Thanks.

Had some time to kill so finished off some local caches and finished this series. Great series thank you Gorby.

Just the north side to visit. I've loved this set thanks Gorby!

Very cool cache ....love it! (My first of the set)

First time out here, though not sure why I would have been here before in the first place.... Had my eye on these for a while, and as soon as we pulled up everything clicked into place which resulted in a nice quick find. Nicely done as usual - TFTC

Out and about this afternoon with evilno9 for a spot of caching out west. Never been down this road before but trusted the GPS which soon had us parked up within a few meters from the cache. evilno9 quickly twigged to the fashion of this one so i headed up the bank and found the cache pretty quickly. Nicely done, TFTC!

Never been down to this spot before. Interesting to see the changes happening. A quick find now that I know what to look for!. TFTC

Hitching a ride with Darby&Joan for a day of caching, with company including a driver (pure luxury).
Although I had already done this challenge, it was a great opportunity to up my number of finds.
We had to wait for several people to come through the gate before we could start searching, with us hanging about trying not to look sus. Nice hide, missed it on first pass as was looking in a different direction, at where I assumed it was likely to be. TFTC

On a mission today for our 50 caches km apart. Helefant was along for the ride too, so we have signed logs DJH - Darby&Joan, Helefant, for speed and saving space. This was find #39. Another cool cache. SL. TFTC.

Approached from the Platimun Rise end. Builders still working on the new houses nearby at almost 7pm!
A quick grab once I had figured out the gz proximity to the fence! TFTC

Group FTF. Log later.

A great group adventure in the dark thanks for the help and hope to see you all at the meet up thanks Gorby for the adventure TFTC

Yay ! Another group FTF with the gang ! Thanks Gorby for the night adventure !

Off we went from the previous location in a little convoy.
Previous experience was a help here and a quick joint FTF.
A little sleep needed now, please, !!!!!!!!! before the next one.
TFTC.

The force was strong on this one, and the cache was found quickly! The drive to GZ was special, a bit of a convoy, but also looking across Auckland and all the lights. Surprised how long this road is, the GPS had us off roading. Will need to return during the day, Supernanny and Ric have done some walks over the fence, and they tell me there is a pond over in the darkness. Kiwicouple found the elusive cache, another gorby special. Thanks to everyone, we had some technical issues with the technology, it would have been a epic mission, with uncertain outcomes, but tonight FTF.
