Upon arriving at GZ, that is when I checked previous logs. I can now confirm that this cache cannot be accessed as it's in the middle of a building site and should therefore be archived.
This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.
A lot of new building work going on at GZ so I wasn't sure the cache would still be there. It started to rain so I went back for an umbrella and checked out another possibility. Yup. The cache is quite safe. TFTC.
With a break in the weather the only thing I really had to do today was geocache. I had no plans so enlisted TNXPro and Squirrelnutcase to search for a worthy adventure. What no one knew at the time was this adventure would span 21 hours, cover 3 regions and we'd have Davidson clan join us at the half way point. A crazy day but there's no denying - it's a lot more fun with friends!
Tricky getting eyes on this one then we needed a tott to retrieve. Got there in the end though, cheers eyespyben, TFTC

The weather was looking perfect for a caching trip, so myself, Philip.Perry and Squirrel.Nutcase joined forces and decided to hit the Waikato area to try clear Squirrels map.
Were heading past this way so called in to this one.
Not sure the reason why CO would bring anyone here to this spot, but as its a numbers building day, it didnt matter. Its still another smiley face.

Having already found four caches tonight I was on a roll and a DNF here was a major downer. All quiet here on a Friday night but despite walking around in circles for five minutes I came away empty handed.
A group consisting of LiverKiwi, Dragon Griffin, NZTravellers, HeMaLuDy, Purply, Darthcacher1, EIR-0T, Keylev, and NewlynFam headed down this way to collect as many of the Eyes have it series as possible after having a solving session at the end of last year....
We had managed to locate the Eyes have it series so continued on with local caches which took us to this cache
We signed in as 'SEAC 11' or 'SEAC 18' depending on whom signed the log, to save logbook space.
Cache was in good condition.

A group of Team SEAC cachers were in the area collecting the Eyes Have It series and decided to head to Hamilton to continue our caching expedition after lunch and further continued after dinner. We continued our caching as we headed slowly back to Auckland. A nice quick find here.
Had just completed the Eyes have It Geoart series and the group of 3 cars was heading back into Hamilton to do some further caching and grab some dinner and then continuing caching back to Auckland.
Had lost some of our compliment by this stage as an urgent call meant a hasty trip back to Auckland for one member of the team.
We however plodded on caching our way back to Auckland.
Quick find here even if there were muggles working close by.

We collected a few caches on the way to Hamilton after walking up the north end of the Hakarimatas this morning. I had given up on this one but my muggle hubbie kept on and then there it was. TFTC
Checked out the logical and obvious place but failed to find. After 5 minutes or so returned and found it straight away. Nice one... thought it might be a dnf.
This was a DNF quite some time ago, but it was time for another crack at it.
Thankfully it didn't take long this time around though. TFTC

even with 2 of us this took a bit of time, there is no way this is a T1 so ignore that bit, tftc
As part of our current GIO-Licence stage, UncleSam, Dragon_Griffin and I were required to find 50 caches in a day, with each needing to be more than 1km apart. This required a complicated plan including an Excel spreadsheet, many hours spent searching geocaching.com, and measuring distance on Google maps in order to find quick, park & grab caches that hadn't already been found by any of the 3 of us (and weren't likely to result in DNFs as they had been found recently). We also had to lock in a day that fit around 3 people's busy schedules. But eventually, all obstacles were overcome, planning was complete, and the day arrived. That day was today. So caching bags were packed, coffee was consumed (yup, that was me ) and we all met at my place for an early start.
This one took a few minutes, as it was very nicely tucked away.... but we got there in the end!
Thanks eyespyben.... cache #37 of 50! Off to the next on the list!!!

Was completing part of my Geo License with NewLynFam & Dragon_Griffin where we had to find 50 caches in one day, but they must be 1km apart from each/all caches done that day. The problem when doing this with 3 people, and 2 of them have done a few around the country it made it a little harder.
We enjoyed our day traveling around. Please forgive me for the generic logs, but was a long day.
Thanks for supporting my addiction.

As part of my current geolicence challenge I needed to grab 50 caches in 1 day more than 1km apart. I hatched a plan with NewlynFam and Uncle Sam for a road trip to complete this challenge and with the cache route in hand we set off on our mission.
This was number 37 for the day out of 50 with no DNFs! This was a tricky little hide but NewlynFam eventually spotted it. Looks like this area is a bit of a rubbish dumping ground... lots of broken glass bottles TFTC!

News Years Day, perfect for a series of driveby and walkbys in the Waikato. With no-one around parking was pretty easy. Thanks.
I love these cache hiders, they are my favourite. Found with kiwirupen and jjcob. TFTC
On a mission today to find 120 + as a team of 4. All logs signed Naki 4
Team is Blenheim Bear Thatsneat Tmninjaturtle and 2 Bulbars.
It was a fun filled day finding many sorts of different caches and visiting many interesting places.
Many thanks to all who placed these caches to help make it such an enjoyable day
Found this with the team "Naki 4" (Blenheim Bear, 2Bulbars, TMNinjaTurtle and myself) on our mission from Huntly to Hamilton on our hunt to 120. Was a long day but pleased to have it completed! Thank you for the cache.
Found this cache during the Naki 4 team (Blenheim Bear, 2Bulbars, Teenage Mutant NinjaTurtle and That’s Neat) run on the 120 caches in one day on the 3rd Oct. Many thanks Mission accomplished, this one is a wrap. TFTC! Blenheim Bear

I was determined to find this cache today especially since the cache owner had verified it was still in place. He was right but it took a bit of hunting to track down and sign the darn thing.
Geo caching app needs to update the map. This part of the road doesn't exist according to the map. Easy find, some mongrels chucked rubbish everywhere.
***found with hideandseekteam pretty easy once you know what XS means and what ones it could be.***
Nice quick easy find on a day where we needed one for the souvenir on offer. Wow has this part of Hamilton expanded! Found with blacksticksgirl. SL. TFTC.
Somehow, gps didn't store the cache leaving me blind, however, had some idea of location,
worked on the hint and soon had it in hand. Tftc

It was a bit busy around here with a few big trucks in the area. Found it with just a little searching. TFTC.
Haven't grabbed a cache in quite some time, so thought we'd go grab this one in transit. Had cache in hand when an older guy rocked up in his little green truck and asked us what we were doing, he thought we were trying to get into his yard.. put the cache back when he reached the lights, but he mustve been lookin at us in his rear view mirror, because he ran the red light. [8]
Looking for at least 45 minutes and still no luck, I'm pretty sure I looked in all places and left frustrated. There is a huge pile of dirt and rocks there though, maybe the cache is underneath?
"Stop molesting that snail" said the electrician, "and go and look somewhere else", he added. Tftc.
Found this afternoon while out with family. Co-ords were bang on. Thanks for placement.
Team Welsh and I had had a busy few days but we couldn't resist finding a few more on the way home. T4tc
We checked out a few caches in the area on Sunday so we knew where they were for midweek dot days. I left home at seven in a wet, grey dawn. Lucky I knew where it was as the adjacent yard was busy at this time of day. The cache came with me for a walk around the little walkway nearby, several times as I thought I might as well combine a bit of exercise into this morning madness.
Home in more light with a rainbow. When I left I thought it was going to be wet, but the rain is holding off and now I'm sorry I didn't do a grassier one and leave this for a really nasty day. Never mind. 8.30am, logged and ready to start my work day.

We had to run some errands out this way so popped in and made a quick find. In fact it probably took longer to put the log back in the container than it did to find. This signifies our 366th consecutive day with a find.
Late Saturday afternoon and the chores were done around home so mum said I was allowed to go and play so on the bike to get some city caches tftc very well hidden
11.10am - Seemed to ages to find this one, perhaps it was the aroma in the air that was distracting us. SLTFTC
Queen's Birthday Monday (An extra day of caching). Another raid into Hamilton with Gap (of Fap and Gap).
We were trying to make a connection between the cache name and the location... This one took us a while to find. We searched the obvious, then the obscure... We kept coming back here though... We found this eventually, after changing the angle of our approach. TFTC.

975 Queens birthday holiday so a short drive out for this one. Cache all good.

Was hoping for a nice quick find for this one, unfortunately that was not the case. Was pretty confident I knew where about's the sneaky little thing should be, but I missed it on numerous passes. Turns out I just wasn't quite at the right angle to spot it.
Nicely hidden, thanks for the cache.

Slight diversion on the way home from a day of business in Auckland. Now with the nearby express way open I don't think I've been down this road since it opened. A quick and straight forward find along with a quick retrieval while looking across to a customers back yard
Thanks for the placement
Thanks for the placement
Had a really good idea on what I was looking for and where I might find it, and the idea was spot on!
Figured that when I was chasing around doing errands in the north part of town today, I had just enough time to quickly detour for some of the new hides published since I was last in the area. This was one of them. No-one around, had a quick look in the obvious, nothing .... mmmm. Rethink - relook - gotcha! Sneaky little fella! TFTC.
FTF at 2011hrs on this one also with Geo-goober on the way home. 3 in a row?? Although it's bloody cold outside
