Though I've placed several over the years, urban hides just aren't my thing & are proving to be a struggle to maintain; freeing up the space for Whooo-ever else may like to place a cache in the vicinity...

Noticed a Chorus Tech working in this cabinet this morning. Then tonight on the way home the homeowner was clearing the last of the spiky plant from around the cabinet. Stopped off just before dark on my way back from a caching mission and checked for any sign of the cache, but it's probably gone with the cleanup. Could be a good chance for a replacement and reactivation soon. Cheers.

Couldn't seem to locate it even with additional wire... spikes were a bit of a Mish too

Hmmm, didn't notice spikes upon placement but it sounds a wee bit unsafe, so disabling until I can check it out.

Watch out for the spikes. One made it all all the way through the sole of my shoe. Took a few attempts this one due to the stealthy difficulty

This wise old owl. Would surely be saying about the cache. Please dry me out. And give me a dry log". The log was soaking. And I did sing it. But it desperately needs replacing. Thank you for this cache and another smiley face.

This is my first NZ cache. I arrived from Canberra and came up here to visit relatives. A quick check confirmed some caches nearby. This one still had new log book smell! SL. TFTC

Not a great fan of these things as I know how
destructive they can be but not today. A quick
find. I think it took longer to find a car park.
