Lachie's loot (Southland) Roslyn Bush, South Island, New Zealand

I am regretfully 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.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Have found this previously and cache isnt here. Has been 6 months with no owner action, proberly needs archiving

Hi christinebirss

This 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.

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.

Any update on this one? It's close to home but have stopped for a look before and couldnt see it.

Kids and I out looking today. No luck.

Had a good look but no joy. seen the hint. Is it here?

Had a decent look seen the hint and looked everywhere behind it but no joy today unfortunately, might try another day.

Good cache. Grandchildren with me but would not help (friends with cache owner)

Had to come check out Lachies Loot. Left my calling card. Cheers. Now time to get back to Zara for dinner.

Friday 6 November. We are off exploring Waituna Lagoon and Seawards Downs today. Its a beautiful sunny day today.

Toby, Zara and I are on a 3 week geo adventure of Cromwell, Southland, Catlins, Balclutha with a day in Dunedin and quick stop in Timaru. With Lenny, my trusty navigator and TBD my companion/mascot. we managed to visit lots of green boxes, now happy faces with the odd sad one. Did some LABs , earth caches, virtuals and wherigos, all chucked into the mix to rack up 500 odd caches. Lots of kilometers, lots of exploring and lots of fun. Thanks to all COs for our wonderful experience.

Easy park and grab on a sunny spring afternoon with kayekaye30 and my doggo tftc

tftc nice park and grab

Thanks Lachie!! Topped up your loot today.

Nice fast drive by.

Bit of a dumping ground for grass clippings but cache safe and sound.

Cache 11 couldn’t help myself had to find a cache now we are at level 2 and it was literally just around the corner from work so grabbed on my way home
Nice quick find, dry log a couple of bits of swag and I’ve added a bug ️ TFTC

Another wet day out caching. Nice quick find

I second the motion that a weed whacker killed the container TFTC

This weekend is my last chance to access the vault for the Mystery at the Museum.
Found after a second look. Sadly container lid is gone and the container has holes in it. Just as well the paper is RITR. Replaced in a covered area, knee hight and tucked under with what is left on the container upside down on the contents.
Thanks for the smilie christinebirss.

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

Quick park and grab, good hint tftc kids (who are probably grown up now!)

Thanks for the hint and the cache.

A quick and easy find. Cheers

Easter holidays, and a road trip to Milford Sound. Today we drove around Southland: Winton, Gore and Invercargill, with lovely weather for the day, and lovely Southland countryside.

Thanks to all CO's for placing and maintaining their caches. Cheers

We are on our summer holiday driving around the South Island with no real idea of where we will end up each day. We are often drawn to an area that has the potential to give us a few geocaching smilies and somewhere we have not spent time exploring before. In some cases we are revisiting placed that we have been before but liked so much we are going there again.
I had a bit of a look but it was not until GK came out to join me that he found the cache, signed the log and returned it as we found it.
Thanks for placing this cache and thank you for the smiley

Quick grab in the early morning. -. Thanks Bitsprayer

On a great tour of Southland today. Zigged and Zagged quite a bit.
Thanks

Lovely summer evening and perfect for caching. Being watched by kids on farm bike. Tftv

lovely summer evening out on the MTB exploring the gravel roads, found this cache on a road I have never been on before, many thanks

#4882. I have been down south on a work trip and today was the second day I had set aside to do geocaching. Had hired a car on the Monday and had until 5pm today to locate as many caches as possible close to Invercargill. Parked nearby and then went to look for the cache. Wasn't in the first few places checked so widened the search and found it within a minute. Signed and replaced exactly as found. Thanks for the cache christinebirss.

Finally turned this frown upside down and found it. Wasn't too sure about the orange gel on the lid. Made sure not touch it and tried to wash it off.
Internal contents all good.

Not sure if the 'open home' sign right beside the hint object was good for us or not as there were quite a few extra cars in the area but then again with so many extra vehicles around, our activities weren't quite so suspicious. Found with AorakiSheep

Thought we were going to DNF this but the 'one more look' proved to be what was needed. Found with debsnz

Nice find on way home from a drive in the country tftc

Nice spot but couldn't find container

Nice place. Searched few spots until found. TFTC.

Beautiful day for it! Cache is s bit damp. Shook out all the water i could! Tftc

Lively place. Cache sad a bit damp.tried to dry it.

One of the last caches for the night and Me's getting a bit wary, been a big day. Yep hand slipped and I tooted and just about woke the whole neighbourhood. The little woman swore lol. Grabbed the cache and SL. TFTC

We searched and searched in all the wrong places for Lachie's loot. I had actually given up when the passenger found it - whew! Tipped out the water from the bottom and grateful for the waterproof log because I just wiped it and then signed. Just a point of interest we are heading back to out Lachy so it was a must do cache - looking forward to when he's old enough to come caching too. TFTC #10,006

Found with a smiley wee cache owner

I had a quick look but to no avail. There were muggles approaching so I left.

Nice quick find today. I was just getting back into the car when a local pulled into the driveway, she didn't seem surprised to have someone parked there, so I guess I'm not the first person she's seen
