Looks like it is gone

Didn't look hard

Log is wet managed to log it but not in good condition

Quick find. Note that the logook is wet. TFTC

Nice easy find on a great day out. The log is very wet but was still able to sign it. TFTH

On the last day of a wonderful 7 day feast of geocaching. Still having a blast. Thanks!

Took a bit longer to find this one and then the log was very wet too. TFTC # 11261

We set up the slow cooker and went out for a few hours of caching! Great use of time, and although it did start raining at one point, it stopped before I got out of the car. We had a great time! TFTC!!

2,768: Grouseful Smiley!
Out for a nice, but cold, caching evening. We stopped by to grab this one, and it was a quick find. All good!
SL/TFTC!!

Out for the day in the Ashley area knocking off unfound caches and not visiting mother today allowed me to do this. New car is handling the terrain well also. Cache is good also.

TFTC nice little container well hid

Cute find. Ta

Made hard work of this one. Easy find just took me a long time.

Found on a sunday drive with family 5 for the day.

All good

I have been meaning to clear out the Sefton area on the map for so long now, after knocking half of them off yesterday, I came back today to finish them off. TFTC (3198)

Hubby was working today, so I decided to head off and try find a few caches before lunch to try and get the find count up, plus clear out a bit more of the area!! - I'd had my eyes on these few!! Would be nice to clear out a bit more, as my daily average is looking even worse this year than last, and it wasn't flash last year either!!

Speedy find here - nice to get the find count up I suppose...

Consec caching day # 1376

TFTC!!

Nice quick find. Tftc

Found it. Tftc

I had a go at looking for this last October over Mega Weekend but was foiled by a mob of sheep. No problem this morning. Cheers and TFTC

After several days in Chch and surrounds we headed home today but of course made time to find some caches on the way. As well as caching around Ashley and Loburn we returned to the Greta Valley to finish what we didn't have time for on our way south.By the time we reached home last night our count for the day was 53, tired but satisfied with our efforts for the week.The logs were signed HZ+HM, H+H, or on some case with our full names.
Thank you to all CO's whose caches we found this week.

After caching managed to hold us up for two days we're heading for home. Not without picking up caches on the way and not so on the way though And a detour via Greta Valley to take care of some unfinished business from a few days ago on the way down. The landscape is a lot more pleasant here than both the dry and irrigated land further South. A good variety of caches were found. Nice after doing some series on days previous. Our final tally for this multi day raid was 380+. Thank you Nosynel for placing this cache

Quick find, TFTC

Tftc nice quick find!

TFTC first night cache for youngest geocacher and he found it.

Quick easy find after the preschool pickup after working from home. Thanks for the cache.

Quick find with warfi to start the day thanks

TFTC. An opportunity was grabbed today to go out for a few caches in the Loburn area. What a beautiful day to have a look around the country.
Thanks Nosynel for placing the cache.

A quick easy find. TFTC

This was one of the caches we found on our South Island homeward journey from Picton after 3 weeks touring around the North Island in our camper van. Our thanks to the many CO's for the many great caches and placements which diverted us to many great locations. Sorry for the generic log, but so many caches to log. TFTC

Found on way to Christchurch. Enjoying the caches

A Nice quick find on our day out around the Loburn to Amberly area.

Went out for cache on a fine afternoon.tftc

Out on an Ashley cache hunt. First find of the day. TFTC

Continuing on our Mega trip with tmann421 and enjoying the variety of caches in the area.

Great find with Just-Lookin after the MEGA. SL TFTC

We came, we saw, we logged.
Easy. TFTC

A quick find while we were out in the country TFTC

On my way to the MEGA - Day 2.
This was the easiest find but no key ring.
TFTC

Thanks

A nice little cache, found after dinner, nice out tonight, before it gets to dark

TFTC

Due to the rain our FFT walk was cancelled and we took shelter at warfi's house instead. After a good chatup/warmup we were back out into the still cold but no longer rainy day. A nice quick at these ones. Thanks for placing the cache and adding to our smilies

Hard to spot on a freezing afternoon. Thank goodness for the hint. The ditch in front is a trick for the night cachers. Enjoying the little tour.

The lady contingent of the team were heading off to Disney on Ice and I had the wee man with me. So, we decided to head out an grab a few solved puzzles and do a bit of a loop via Rangiora and Amberly and see where the road takes us. The day wasn't the flashest as we had snow in the morning and we headed out in a sunny patch. We were heading this one on the Amberley stretch of our adventure after a successful FTF mission. I was nearby the other day but due to time constraints I left these ones. Nice and easy park n grab.

Thanks for the cache.

Grouse cache you set out there. A fairly simple one by torch light. A great day out and about with Karma Reprint. Cheers

An outing to rangiora to collect a few new smiley faces. A quick find on this one. Tftc

Nice we hide. Gave up on a couple in the area due to muggles and a dead hare right by another. Thanks

Very cold, wet, miserable day- and I had been saving this one for just such a day- when I wasn't going anywhere much. So ducked down the road while there was a break in the showers and fortunately made a quick find. (and now it's pouring again!). Thanks Nosynel

A lovely afternoon to go caching and catching up with friends. These 3 were easy to find although we weren't sure about which was which. TFTC

We came around the corner to see 2 familiar faces,was so good of Me&Pedro to have already found it for us.After signing we moved on to the next on our list.TFTH

FTF @ 12.01 am!!!

Saw this one and another come into my inbox but the kids were asleep and Mike was at his 2nd job so had to wait. Mike got home about 11.55pm and i shot straight out.
Found this one all good there is a wee dip in front of it and due to being by myself and not to sure if any water was in it due to no light i jumped it

Thanks for placing some more caches out here.

After a fun morning at Spencer park we headed home for a late lunch....that done and with full tummied family happily reading books and playing Lego I was able to sneak out for a daytime caching adventure.....so different than the usual nighttime trips! ...a lovely afternoon for a drive. Nice wee Cache. Quick find and sign before looping back to Kaiapoi for a Y cache. Cheers.
