Reyburn Bench (Whangarei) Whangarei, North 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 the last reviewer note.

Hi PageHeart

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit. 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](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

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.

Nowhere to be found - instead i found a new favourite spot

Cache seems to be missing.

Tried my luck anyway, yeah- nah, its defo not there

Whyyyyyy

Hard to find

It has gone.

Right spot, no cache

Unfortunately I couldn’t find this one either - had a good search.

DNF

Could not find this anywhere looked high and low for it also

A quick visit, yes the log is still wet

UnAble to sign saturated log.TFTC.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

The log is full and damp so no signature from us but a quick grab nonetheless, thanks

Quick find, thanks

Found it but paper is wet and can’t write on it

Awesome find!

Camping nearby for the night in our motor home. Went for a short walk. Unfortunately I didn't take a pen with me to sign
Can produce a picture of cache and location if owner wants confirmation. Felt it before seeing it. Nice hide. Tftc

Clever hiding spot in a beautiful location. Running out of space on the paper

No more space on the paper, I hope that you will get another piece of paper for others to log their details A good hide anyway

Beautiful spot for a walk

Thanks PageHeart for the cache. It’s #1064 for us. We found your cache on 16 June 2019. What a lovely spot on a sunny day.

So tiny! Mr 9 stoked

Quick find, log is fill. TFTC!

DElightful place to be on a sunny Sunday morning - even a piper to add to the nice vibe. T4tc

Set a new benchmark!

A nice easy find in between all the muggles walking past. Log is full but found a wee gap to sign. TFTC

Super small but easy to find

Fumbled around in the dark (it's just after 8pm with no torch) but managed to feel and find this cache. Walked over to the nearby footpath light in order to sign the log.

Cache needs a new log as old one is full. Lovely spot

Found it

Way more complicated than it should have been! Hahaha. Then so obvious! So small! Thanks for such a clever cache!

Nice little bonus find on the way back to the motorhome from town. Nice spot by the river.

On a road trip north, enjoying the day and pic up some caches. TFTC

Onroute further north, stopped off to stretch the legs. Quick find, did need to wait for fellow geocachers to do their find first .... so was a muggle in waiting as they eyed me out and me them, all in fun. No pen on me to sign log. TFTf

Juste au bon endroit

Yes, yes really micro.
We don't have pen.

#3,484: Restful Smiley!
I came to this one waiting for the rest of the family for dinner. I had some time to myself, so what else to do? Found quickly, once I found the right bench! All good!
SL/TFTC!!

Première micro pour l’ami qui nous accompagnait
Merci pour cette cachée placée dans un coin très sympa

A lovely spot to enjoy the sunshine and scenery, and sneak a cache. Hint made it simple. Whangarei has changed hugely since I used to live here TFTC

A good hint meant did not look absolutely silly searching TFTC

What a lovely secluded spot go rest at. Lots of muggles passing by far enough away or to hinder us. Thanks for the placement PageHeart

Enjoyed a rest here taking in the atmosphere ..
Lots of people out walking today...soon found the sneaky placement...thanks pageheart for your cache

#809 - Up here visiting family, got some free time so I'm on a mission to find as many as I can.
Lovely down here at the town basin. Found quickly. TFTC

Out on a walk around sunny Whangarei. What a nice place, cache quickly found and signed. Tftc.

Day three of our get away up north and it was time to head home. Had a few 36 degree challenge caches to still get but managed a few extras on the way home and a nice lunch in Whangarei town basin and of course the usual Friday afternoon traffic snarl up in Auckland. Overall a great couple of days in the north and again, many thanks to all the C.O’s.

Several benches to chose but the gps was true. TFTC!

Found this one yesterday but violated the first rule of geocaching & forgot a pen. Grateful to be in this beautiful country. Visiting from Oregon USA where we have a foot of snow, cold & power outages. Log was full so I replaced with a fresh one. Tftc

Found the cache, log is full, no where to sign. Also, log is wet.

Heute ist einer der sehr wenigen Tage mit Regen, während des Urlaubes von Heckenstürmer und mir. Morgens hatten wir aber echt Glück und hatten nur während der Fahrt Regen und beim Spazieren und Cachen eigentlich trocken. Nachmittags dann halt Dauerregen und dementsprechend nasse Schuhe. Sind aber sonst gut von Albany nach Whangarei gekommen.

Greets from Switzerland

Day 26 in Newzealand. Today we drove from Auckland, Albany to Whangarei.

Thank you for showing us this place.

Another that's needs a new log. Tftc

Nice place to take a break! Greetings from the Uk. TFTC (log full)

The bench wad occupied when we approached so we passed on. When we came back it was still occupied so we asked if we could disturb them explaining we were geocaching and what that meant. Soon had the little blighter found and we said farewell to our new friends. The log is full and needs changing. TFTC

cloudy day, but still fun to go caching woth Findbobi

Northland Day 4: Travelled down from Kerikeri, through the beautiful coastline of the Bay of Islands, before ending off in Whangarei. Today’s journey was marked with a bounty of seasides and waterfalls, and with the weather being particularly fine today, there was no excuse to stay in today. Another wholly productive day, with nice haul of caches of all shapes and sizes: a wholly great birthday treat with the family today.

The following is the specific log for each cache:
Last cache before dinner at the Quayside. This was quickly picked up thanks to the clear hint. A standard cache of this sort. TFTC and showing me this historic place!

On A road trip with Dee+ME from Tauranga. Have been having a poke around here and there and been taken to some great places, many thanks to all you COs for your placements. Cheers

Passing through Whangarei with McJandals, on our way north to do Twin Coast Cycleway. Having abit of a cycle around picking up a few caches. Very impressed with this area of town.
Cheers

Cute found one just like it at NOT QUITE SORRENTO

Attended a wedding in Tutukaka on Saturday so I had time to find some caches in Whangarei.
Signed and replaced as found.
Thanks for the cache.

Dont need ya eyes haha subtlety is easy

Today we had our second day in Whangarei, thereby visiting many locations in the town and near the road and looking for caches, too. On this trip we searched, found and logged a lot of caches. The weather was good all day long with only partly some dark clouds.
Almost no muggels observed us as they had other things to do than observing harmless geocachers.

Thanks to 'PageHeart' for showing us this location and for the fun we had at 'Reyburn Bench (Whangarei)'. The search we had here today didn't take too much time.

Greetings from Germany and hope to see you soon in the forest.
