As this cache has been out of action for too long, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

I noticed that this cache has been in need of owner attention for a period of time well in excess of the period of "a few weeks" as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other caches from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it (using the archive listing link in the upper right) so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location.

If you plan on repairing this cache, please log a note to the cache (not email) within the next 30 days so I don't archive the listing for non-communication.

We started on the wrong level, however, when we had that sorted, a short search and we had it. Also found the lost lid, but log is very wet. Tftc

Have been to this park before for a cache which must have been archived. No problems in locating the cache. Thanks

Saved this for a dot day. Easy find but in a very sorry state. No lid and sodden plus it's getting eaten as well.

Badly needs someone giving it a once over-see my last log

#150. Just a pen, paper, and an original Navman. Resisted the temptation to bring up the milestone on recent trip to Brno for the MotoGP. Log a bit damp but good hide. Tftc.

Out biking so decided to look in on this site - neat spot

Out and about fighting the elements while finding a few specific caches towards a challenge we are working on. Took a while to locate this one and slippery under foot today TFTC.

Found. What a neat little walkway
Thanks for.taking me here.

1034 Looks a lovely gully in the dark so will have to come back in the light and see the work that has been done. Thanks for bringing me here.

Another great find while in the area with Just-Lookin.

Thanks for setting up this cache - having fun touring around.

On a short road trip with tmann421. Enjoyed the area collecting caches along the way.

Todays Challenge was to work on my own little challenge of completing more "Dot Days" and so have been keeping local caches all quiet and un collected specifically for that reason. However as today was one of those days it was time to collect these three.
This was the third of them and a quick find following on from work at dusk. Went in the hard way in the failing light and came out the correct way back to the car
Noone out and about so no problems encountered here

thanks for the placement

Nice little spot, it will be nice to see how this area develops.

Parked car on Cambridge road and took a nice long loop walk and collected a few caches along the way, this was the second and what a great little hideaway.
Coords spot on.

Had a few minutes to kill before picking up the small one from drama class. Decided to shoot down here and grab this one. Great to see all the work that has gone on here. Found cache with no problems, it all makes sense now. Thanks for the cache to get me out and about and show off this great little place.

What a magical spot - a hidden path through a quiet reserve...

Found the hide where expected, thanks for bringing us here.

Didn't have much time today, so was thankful for a nice straight forward find. Thought about heading straight down the bank, but with work gear on I thought twice about it and decided to go for the stairs. Once at GZ soon had the cache in hand, thanks for the placement.

9am - Soon spotted likely spot with hint given. Quick count and soon had container. Cache all well. SLTFTC

Queen's Birthday Monday (An extra day of caching). Another raid into Hamilton with Gap (of Fap and Gap).

I hadn't noticed until this morning, I have a blister on the heel of my foot. I hate that... It means I'll be hobbling for a day or two... The pain of it all was the added pressure to climb up and down hills and steps... Will just have to tread carefully for now... The coordinates and hint combined to make this a quick find. TFTC.

The 1st day of winter and time to go and get some caches. Very peaceful late afternoon on a public holiday tftc

The lid is missing from the container

Also been to this wee park before, nice to see all the work that has been done...TFTC

last one for the day, came across a council worker who was interested in what we were doing, he followed us to the cache to have a look and watch us find the cache.

We've just been to the 6yr old Iammrwalker's birthday party and wanted a dot day find, although the weather isn't the best. This was close to party and home.
We have been to this park once for another cache, but it was on the other side, so it was nice to be given another ' I'd have never been here except for geocaching' cache. It has certainly made us aware of the wealth of little green spaces Hamilton has and how our landscap,e with all the gullies, makes for interesting secret pockets. Well done to whoever is developing this one.
I loved the name which made sense at GZ. It was a bit of a muddy retrieval today, but all dry in the container.
Thanks for the cache.

I decided to pop in here after work, which turned out to be later than expected. I unwisely decided the quickest way to GZ was a straight line and slid down a bank and broke the headlamp I was holding. Since I was grubby anyway I didn't mind having a good scrummage around at GZ and soon unearthed the container thanks to the helpful hint. I was really impressed with the work that's gone on here and how much more accessible the area is now. TFTC.

{FTF}!! Was curled up by the fire when this was published last night &, knowing I'd be right by GZ today - my turn for the school run - decided to stay warm & try my luck this am. Was fairly certain the FTF hounds would have nabbed this already so, after a short walk to GZ & a nice quick find, it was a very pleasant surprise to get the FTF. The gully has changed a lot in the short time since I was last here; great job on the paths by those involved. And well done too on your 1st hide. Nice one! TFTC
