Gone! Third time in as many months so I am archiving it. Either someone is deliberately taking cache or the cache is not being replaced carefully and being left visible.
Got it! Second time a charm with help from my son. First nanocache for us. Now we know what to look for! Very well placed.
I feel like I'm in the right place but coming up empty. I know this was found just yesterday but could it have been muggled again?
Nice easy quick grab this time . Thanks for replacing it supasi we had looked in the right place last time
mmmmm new log paper to write on, yummy!
place was abandoned when we arrived here, a nice quick find, compared to GC5VGQ1
Cheers

A mission was needed to complete one of the last few licence challenges on Rangitoto Island, so a passing comment to C&D at an event and this mission was soon planned. We nearly achieved what we set out to accomplish, with only 1 more cache to find to complete the challenge but that was due to miss-reading the fine print on the challenge page.
So with the mission lasting 48 hours we amassed a great set of numbers, 317 caches found, just over 1200km travelled, about 7 hours of sleep, C&D finding his 180th earthcache, completing the KAS powertrail in under 3 hours and finding numerous amazing geocaches. A lot of fun was had along the way, and some great memories were created. A big thanks to everyone for placing all the caches along the way, this mission wouldn't have been as much fun if they weren't there!
Quick find here, thanks for the placement.

After seeing a DNF for this one I decided that I will check it as it was on my way into town. Unfortunately it has gone from its hidey hole. Will look at replacing over the next few days.
Although the hint seemed pretty specific, and led to some obvious hiding places, we were unable to find this cache today.
Out for a day of binge caching in the company of -gonefishing- with the primary focus being the KAS power trail then meeting the criteria for the 142 in 24 hours challenge. After escaping the showers in Wellington the day turned out beautiful and was perfect for the task in hand. Thanks to all the cache owners who provided a great variety of entertainment along the way.
Found during a day out in the Manawatu/Wanganui with Fozzmiester. Managed to mop up the KAS trail in just over 3 hours, averaging 30 finds/hour. With that many quick finds under our belt we continued on for a little longer to bring up 146 for the day. Thanks to the COs who placed all the caches we found.

Yay found it... Was our first so very exciting .... Lotsa muggles around watching us
Out and about on a caching afternoon and this was the first. A nice easy park 'n' grab with no muggles around. TFTC
Nice easy find although we had to walk past and get ice blocks from the dairy and then pop back as there were teenage muggles lurking around. Close to home so a nice walk with the kids on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Tftc.
Lots of cars going past but no muggles near GZ, so able to look unhindered. Found quickly. TFTC
Figured that since it was late in the day we needed to stop the car somewhere so the kids would wake up- and prevent problems getting them back into bed later after dinner. So if you need to stop nothing else makes sense than to grab a cache -especially on a dot day!
Nice quick find. Thanks for the cache and the smiley

Quick pick up with SJT_NZ, trying to be subtle but lads were practising on the other side and one lad got caught short, next thing you know he was taking a leak at the GZ
A quick find on a Saturday afternoon whilst some lads were enjoying the playing fields - all except for the one who got "caught short" . . .
Headed home from a few days in New Plymouth we decided it was too late to grab many caches on the way... But seeing as it's a dot day we should really grab one. After the first one was heavily over looked by many cars and homes we left and found our way to this one.
Nice easy find by AtomsNZ at the expected location.

While up I Wanganui. For prof. Dev. it was the ideal time to. Pick up a couple more GC.
This was a straight forward cache but where the spiders had done their best work and aided the hide!
thank you for this cache.

Only here for the day before heading home (after being in PN yesterday) so the opportunity to collect a few caches between meetings.

A quick diversion on the way home from the pool. With hint I went straight to it. Great little hiding place. TFTC
Out and about today after a week away just to clean up all the new caches I haven't managed to get to. Didn't have this one loaded either so had to rely on the phone no problem with this one. TFTC
Second time lucky! First time I arrived without my GPS and had to return later with it. Never geocache without being prepared!!

Was just on our way up to the lake to replace After Hours so zipped in to grab this one on the way. Great to see you putting caches down now Supasi, you must have just about done all the Wangas ones now. It must have been a night for the spiders cos they were certainly out in force tonight, and there were some beauties on the ??????, RIGHT where you had to put your hand to access the cache. Mr RRR quickly dispatched them, for Mrs RRR's comfort. Was expecting the stated nano, only to find a bison tube, but with all the cobwebs, it was a really good hiding place, and with the spiders standing guard, no-one was going to mess with it...well except us of course. Will check the photo's on our GPSr to see if we got good shots. Mrs RRR is definitely a 'gurl' when it comes to creepy crawlies. TFTC and hope to see many more. Keep an eye out for the upcoming event - would be great to put a face to the name.
Up at 6 am only to find that the early or was it late cacher has the FTF .Keep up the hiding of caches.

Was relaxing Sunday evening and saw I had a couple of emails and thought it may be some new caches I had loaded for review, however I found two new caches in Wg. So loaded onto the GPS, grabbed the torch and headed to GZ.
With no one around and torch in hand the cache was quickly found and signed off on a blank log sheet - haven't seen one of those for a while!
Thanks for the placement and the FTF supasi.
