Hi Nacho the pug
This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. 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.

Looked pretty hard with my eagle eyed partner who can usually spot them if I can't so maybe it's awol?
Don't know if it's still there or not, if it is its pretty well hidden! Will have to come back and look again some time
Sorry but looked and felt for anything that maybe a cache but came up empty handed. Maybe next time we are ever out this way.
Mr C had an appointment over here so I suggested a picnic and day of caching after. We had fun on a lovely day with many walks. Nice to have a seat and rest while enjoying the view. Easy cache to find, log very full squeezed us in between two logs. Thanks SirDidymus.
Glad to have this one picked up after failing the last time I was out here a few years ago. Thnkgs have changed a wee bit! Cheers
Easy find didn’t have to give bench lap dance this time also needs new log as it’s completely full could you please write us up on the next one? Many thanks!
After a few mins of looking Beeba found it on the ground. Squeezed a signature in and logged the find and replaced in the likely hiding spot.
Couldn’t find it but with the wind and freezing weather we didn’t stick around for long.
Gestern auf unserem Erfrischungsspaziergang gefunden. Hier kann man schön verweilen und dem Treiben der schwarzen Schwäne zuschauen.
This was a nice evening walk, we enjoyed it after a long ride from Kaikoura to Christchurch. Thanks for the caches!
I didn't see Nacho on my walk. But this was a nice walk, I enjoyed it after a long ride from Kaikoura to Christchurch. Thanks for the caches!
We were down sailing at Pleasant Point Yacht Club and found this one just before we went out on the water. Log very full so couldn't really sign it properly. TFTC
Log needs replacing.
A lovely place to sit and enjoy the views, especially watching the dark clouds roll in over Canterbury. I was with a couple of tourists new to geocaching so it was a lesson in finding the cache with stealth as there were a few lads nearby. Squashed in our names almost over the top of others. TFTC

Sat there....looked all around....looked at it. Did not realise till I looked at it the 3rd time what it was. These small ones take a bit of getting used to. There are 3 seats there It is the middle one.
Loved this cache... Great spot and great view.
The log is full and no room left to write in.

A fairly quick find this time with the expected cache and location. Another full log though. TFTC
Another cool walk in the trees and another in the series found - thanks for keeping these going.
Found while out on a cool bike ride today. Lovely day here, visited with some trackables. TFTC
I have just moved over to the South Island from Australia. Hoping to live and explore the country over the next few years and find a lot of caches on the way. Cheers for the hides.
Out for an afternoon of caching by foot today and this was next on the list.
No doggos here this time around and another quick find before starting to head more inland for a squiz.

After a CITO event at the governor bay, I got plenty of hours before the dinner so I head to the Southshore to do a cache swipe. Started from the parking lot, all the way down to the tip along the shoreline, and double back to the parking along the east side of the land along the beach. I found 10+ caches on 1 trip. Very nice.
Although several DNFs on the log, I actually made the find. The cache was not where it supposed to be, but lying on the ground and got mixed in debris and rocks. I replaced the cache to where it should be and hope it will be there longer.

The day after a horrible act that shakes the very core of our society what do you do? Taken some time out and go for a walk to settle your mind. Our hearts and best wishes go out to the families of the victims of such a tragedy. TFTC
Decided to spend New Year's Eve to cycle from Christchurch to the beach. Many chances to earn today's souvenir along the way. This one was the first.

On a brilliant kayak tour from city to sea we stopped here for a break, before we went out to cross the estuary.

Found with nissan 65. Flew in yesterday from sydney for a short holiday. Hoping to see as much as i can on the south island and pick up caches along the way . Thanku for the cache
A really interesting look around the area today collecting a number of caches. Had not been out this way since the big earthquake. Thanks to the many CO's for maintaining your caches in such a great spot, which is quite unique in a number of ways. TFTC

Found on a nightly dog walk.
After a DNF on another Nacho's cache, we continued the walk to this cache. Luna the dog went absolutely bonkers, trying to chase the birds all over the low tide estuary. All you could see was this shadowy figure bolting all along the estuary in incredible speeds accompanied by violent splashing and birds lifting off, shrieking in panic. Good walk.
She slept like a dog-log all the night after this instead of usual fidgeting around.

We stay at the nearby holiday park, so walking here is like our temporary home zone. A nice walk, and it was fun walking on the pier on low tide, too: there were so many little crabs running for cover as soon as the feel seen.
Thanks for the little nano here, which could be found at the expected place.
Merry Christmas and best wishes from Germany!

In Christchurch for the weekend with my partner and while she is doing a 2 day course I came up with her as it is the perfect time to log lots of caches and try to log 2000 before next year. TFTC sadly I did find this one. But the dog next door made lots of noise while I was there.
Tftc!!! Fun find... apart from a guy on a noisy motorbike... well be back for a picnic
I have decided to fall in love with Christchurch. After waiting for the city to come up with ways I could embrace it, I realised it was time for me to take some steps instead. And what better way to do that than finding a few caches and exploring the area! To that effect, I left the house nice and early while the temperature was still well below zero, and set off to find some in town before continuing on a walk or two of some sort. Nice spot, TFTC!!
I spied these caches on my GPSr last weekend when we did our walk across the road, so today when we decided to take advantage of a break in the drizzly weather, I remembered these. Glad we went because it is such a great place to walk. Truffles loved all the smells, but he was hoping to see Nacho. Maybe next time.
Having dropped the youngest Rattll off at her university accommodation & booked into the near by campground, there was enough time left for a bit of an evening stroll before bed.
A nice straight forward find. Thanks Nacho the pug

Begins our holiday in NZ in Christchurch, we came from Italy to find our son who lives there for two years.
Long trip, but surprisingly we arrived there very tired, almost two days and two nights without sleep, but it took just 24 hours we got used to the new day.
Having Been to Akaroa and Kaukoura, and trail AHHH FRESH, today we decide to go down to South New Brighton, along the river, beautiful landscape reminds us of the Camargue in France, many water birds, there is a lot of wind at times you walk fatigue, then we follow the dunes by the sea.
photo log we were unable to open the nano
Greetings from Italy

Eccoci finalmente in niuziland e dai e dai ci siamo veramente, appena arrivati capiamo che sarà dura, cena di qua invito di la, andiamo a vedere questo e quest'altro.
Dopo essere stati ad Akaroa e Kaukoura e terminato il trial di mistery AHHH FRESH, oggi decidiamo di scendere a South New Brighton, costeggiamo il fiume, paesaggio molto bello ci ricorda la Camargue in Francia, tanti uccelli acquatici, c'è molto vento a tratti si cammina a fatica, dopo pranzo una pioggia improvvisa ci prenderà impreparati, tutta salute, sperem, poi seguiremo le dune sul mare, alcune cache non le troveremo, anche qui mettono nano sotto le panchine!!!
