Finally got around to checking this one and GZ has changed so that I cannot hide the cache as first intended, plus with this one disappearing a few times already I have decide to archive this one.
A spot of night caching but we failed to find this one. One hint item was fenced off for construction, another one nearby had a large pile of wood chips over and around it. May need checking.
#11267. Our second day of cycle caching in Hamiltron. The main goals were a couple of wherigos, as well as any other caches we passed close to. First find of the day. TFTC.
Today it seemed a little cooler than the hot muggy conditions we have endured since arriving in Hamilton. We decided to attempt the Bridge too Far wherigo on bikes and this wasn't far off our route.
I had a bit of trouble crossing the road, so StreetWalker had already found the cache by the time I arrived at GZ. Now that song is going to haunt me for the rest of the day! TFTC.

The end of 2015 saw us take on a big couple of days of caching. At the beginning of the year, we set a goal of reaching 4000 caches by the end of the year. Towards the end of 2015, it wasn't looking too promising as geocaching got put a bit on the backburner for us as life and things happened. Come two days to the end of 2015 and we realised we were much closer than we realised, so set off to Hamilton for some binge caching to reach that milestone! Today was a day with a lot of more DNFs than expected and less numbers than we wanted, but regardless, it still brought us that little bit closer to our goal.
A quick find here! Thanks for the hide.

Went to check on this one today and it seems someone did let the dogs out and as the cache was missing. Replaced the cache so all good to be looked for again, just be watchful that no-ones watching you while your doing the deed!
As with previous cachers - no sign of this one...and yes there is work going on nearby which may be why this one has disappeared.
Checked the poles around GZ but there is some construction going on here so perhaps the object is gone?
On a business trip in Hamilton, but still have a bit of time for some walking and geocaching with my parents. Alouette955 and I spent a short time looking for this one. We're pretty sure it will be gone as the possible hiding place is pretty obvious. Logging this one a couple of weeks late, i see it definitely was missing and has now been replaced.
Read the clue. Thought we checked every pole pretty thoroughly but didn't have any luck in finding it.
A quick grab in darkness on the way home. I've quite often wanted to grab this, but there's always been someone parked too close for me to attempt. So it's nice to grab. And no HKCB and 11HPG11, there were no dogs nearby, you both know what I mean
Tftc! Found this one relavatively quickly, after an appointment on town today. There is some work going on in the vicinity, with an area cordoned off, but cache was safe n sound.
A short stroll in the park to pick up this cache.we have been here before in this park.TFTC
I must pick the wrong times to attempt this one. Tried today and had to wait for some muggles to finish their business before I could quickly leap in and make the find. Left the dog at home today as I wanted to work solo.
out caching with butchiebum, nothing was going to stop us not even the weather, no dogs here tonight in the pouring rain, just cachers wanting another smiley, tftc
On the homeward leg after spending the day caching in North Auckland. A quick raid of Hamilton... With Gap (of Fap and Gap)...
Forget the dogs... This was one smelly location tonight. Glad to nab this and get out... I could still taste that cloying stench on the way back to the car... But TFTC.

7.55pm - Heading home to Rotovegas from a full on day caching up North but were drawn to a few new caches in Hamilton on our way, so what's 4 or 5 more while we are in the area, lets do it. What a stench here and without the dogs. I think this could have been the quickest grab and get out we have done. SLTFTC
located the spot, but it was just within finger reach, after a bit of coaxing it was released from it's spot, returned it not so far in
Went to walk the dog here tonight but it was just too wet and there were a few cars parked nearby. Couldn't see any muggles so maybe they were walking their dogs too. Will be back again.
1073 Found on my way home from the club after a few drinks for a friends birthday. Rain had stopped by then. No one around at that time of night.
A dot day today. Overcast conditions. Making the gps go all over the place. Found after a few mins with the clue.
Knowing about the CO's affinity for all things dog related and his recent experience of sharing this passion with strangers I couldn't help but laugh aloud when reading the cache page (and especially the hint). I thought the location was particularly inspired and by all accounts a popular spot for dog related shenanigans. You could have a ball. Toss a stick. Play fetch. I bet a dog could would beg for more here. Like anyone who enjoys a good time (and Geocaching) we have been to this park before. Most recently with a bunch of like minded individuals. For a CITO. My wife decided she would go for the grab today and evidently didn't have an issue putting her fingers were others may not. TFTC.
Found with Panda22. A couple of players from the nearby building just leaving as we arrived. TFTC

Well that was a nice surprise as it was the first time that I had seen emails today and stairman1 had just left after stopping by for a final coffee beforethey head back to Brisbane tomorrow. Thinking it was a slight chance of getting there.
In the hope that many would be glued to the box following the rugby. Chance would have it that I arrived found signed and left without seeing another.
Thanks for the placement
