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.

I need to check on this geocache

Got to sign this time round during the day in rain, so no muggles, TFTF

Very hard

Didnt get to sign log as MUGGLE approached us, Maybe this cache should be moved as night geocachers (like ourselves) like to hunt and not be hassled by dogs and their owners (bad experience)

TTFC!

Lmao I don’t know what this does, but I found it. Well I think I did. So I went to Barry park with two of my friends and we were expecting it to be drugs or something, because it’s Barry park. It took us a good 3 minutes then we found it. I gotta say it was quite a good hiding spot. When I took it out I thought it looked like a bullet someone else thought it was a battery. And I decided to peel the tape off and accidentally twisted it open and was like “woah”. And then I saw all the names that were written on it and started laughing. But yea, it was pretty fun️and no need to worry cause we put it back exactly how we found it.

We are away for a few days on a TMGT tour journey through to Gisborne and back again. After a smash and grab on our last Whakatane Cache, we have had to be happy with a temporary perspex passenger window for the rest of our trip, so not too keen on leaving the car for any length or out of sight caches. So nice we could park neat to this one. Took us a little while to locate the clever hide. SL. TFTC.

This was tricky but JoKer found it for us...TFTC

Tftc first 4day

GPS had me in the right spot. did not want the other one.

Found this a little tricky haha very sneaky! Thank you! This was a fun one to try and find!

In Gisborne for the weekend, nice evening for a walk to find two caches. Thanks Kota0408 for the cache.

Quick find. Thank you for placing

Out with my wife on a bike ride around Gisborne before the rain and cold southerly arrived at noon. Not too obvious as the drizzle arrived after a bright Monday morning, but seen by mrs gpetonet. My second last dot day done.
TFTC

Great hiding spot... very sneaky

Found this one after a long search, turns out we were looking in the wrong place! Read some of the logs to realise our mistake, a quick find once we were on the right track again. TFTC!

This had been a planned trip in the company of HKCB to Whangarei but as the weather wasn't the best in the north we thought we would bring this trip forward and head over here to see what we could locate as neither of us had done a whole lot around this area.
Leaving home 7pm Friday evening and returning by midnite Saturday, 954kms travelled and approx. 70 caches located along with about 8 DNF's.
Thanks to all the CO's whom have put out these caches for us and completing the maintenance to keep them going.
The start of a new day and after a few hours sleep it was time to see what we could find with the real challenge being the new virtual as that was a primary goal for the trip. With the light up and no rain the day was looking good for a few caches. A nice quick find here

Thank you for the placement, thanks for the cache.

This weekend had been booked into headed to Whangarei with Cats&Dragons for a bit of caching, but as the weather wasn't looking flash at all, so we decided to head East instead to Gisbourne as we both hadn't done much caching in te area. Leave home about 7pm Friday, and returning home midnight Saturday meant we got a fair bit of caching time in for the limited time we had. All up we found just under 70 caches in total, so a big thanks for all the CO's for placing and maintaining the caches we found on this trip.

Took a minute or two to find this hide, thanks for the placement.

Very sneaky

Good easy find. Very clever. TFTC

One week off during school holiday time, combined with some cheap flights made a great adventure in the HB and Gisborne area, popping into BoP a couple of times also. I had great fun and I am grateful to all CO's who placed the caches for others' entertainment!!
Yay, finmally a find after 3 dnf's this morning! I thought I lost it TFTC!!

A nice quick find, log is full but photo attached as proof tftc

Nice find while in the area today with woolwood9.
Enjoyed the drive and caches found. SL TFTC

Very well camouflaged cache. Luckily no sports on this field this morning making this an easy find
TFTC

Quick find, thanks!

I spend some hours walking around in Gisborne. I found 12 caches on different beautiful places. Great way to get to know a city. Another 3 caches I searched for but did not find. Tomorrow I am heading for Palmerston North visiting my brother. Thanks to all co for each and every cache

Nice hide

Very good place

In town for the weekend and did a bit of geocaching. Remember this park from when I used to come and watch my nephew play rugby when he was at school here. Nice easy find as we've seen this kind of hide before. TFTC

Found on 13/01/18, nifty hiding place and cool park for kicks

Tricky one to find

Sneaky little spot

I had the right idea of what GZ is, didn't see it the first time round, but michaelteacher had another look at it and found the cache. Tftc

A nifty little hide. Thanks!

Spotted by my youngest. Glad he found it, I wouldn't have seen it. TFTC

Looked over this at first. Tftc

No games on early on a Sunday. Tftc

While on holiday with whanau here we decided to find a few caches...this one tricked us for a bit but all 3 of us were drawn to one spot...took way longer than it should have lol...tftc

A quick find on the road from Gisbourne to Tutira.
A quick yomp across the field and a good long look round at GZ until I eventually spotted the cache.
TFTC

Great little hide. Took us a bit of time. Thanks

Shahuhugrub found this cache, nice hide. Log full, added replacement, owner may want to pick up original to save it getting damaged

Was searching in the wrong place but eventually the Geo-radar switched on and the cache was in hand. And so my daily streak continues. TFTC

NB: The log is full

Quick find just before it got dark.

TFTC

Off the Golden Princess cruise ship, and we hired a car so we could cache our way around town. This was our 5th find for the day. A bit of searching before we had the cache in hand today. Cathylm was the one to spot it, I was at the wrong spot yet again!
Thanks for the fun

Number 5 of 13 found around the area today whilst on a day trip caching off the beautiful Golden Princess and number 52 of 76 found in our 6 days caching around NZ.

Took a while to find this one - eventually spotted the little blighter in a well hidden spot!

Thanks for the cache.

G'day from Australia!

First cache we have found. Cool place, might need another piece of paper soon.

A nice Saturday afternoon with no muggles around

TFTC

Great place for a small cache. Awesome hidy hole!

Well placed, had us guessing for a bit!...TFTC

A quick easy find after walking across the deserted playing field. TFTC

CZECH
teda ten logbook je fakt hrozný
chvilku jsem místo obhlížel a pak jsem zjistil, kde hledat

The hardest thing was to get into the park. Great hiding place, I just had to put my sunglases down to spot the cache. TFTC

Collecting a few around this part of town.

On a short holiday, destressing and roadtripping up to Gisborne via a heap of caches.

Had initially been looking nearby but not actually at GZ, so when I went to the other obvious location the cache was in my hands pretty quickly. TFTC

School holidays, must be time for a road trip to Gisborne. And of course a cache or two.
No one using park today, Redants spotted cache first.
TFTC Kota0408.

Or some

Very cool indeed ! Thanks guys !
My first one on my Gisborne Mini break !
Great for your first hide !

Fun hunt with our babies

Found it

YAS we found it

Almost gave up but then spores it. TFTC

So many caches, so little time. This was one I found on our weekend stay. Great caches, great scenery, and not that many bugs. Thanks for putting out all these caches!! SL

TFTC. Nice hiding place

After a bike ride to Wainui this morning, we returned to our accommodation for a coffee and a leisurely lunch before heading out again for some more exploration of Gisborne, and to find some more caches, of course. The CANZ Gisborne cache was on the must find list for today as we have the info from all the other North Island caches in the series (apart from the semi final).
We had a bit of trouble finding access to GZ, and in the end walked a bit further than we needed to but once at GZ, StreetWalker's eagle eyes spotted the cache. Perhaps I need a visit to specsavers? Nicely hidden. TFTC.

#11993. My first attempt to navigate to GZ was unsuccessful as we ended up outside the croquet club. We then looked at a street may, and found a side street to park in. Cache was a quick find once we had walked to GZ. TFTC.

This sneaky little cache was further from GZ than our GPS indicated. However, with a bit of lateral thinking, we soon had cache in hand. TFTC

Nice little hide. TFTC

Very tricky nearly a dnf but found it

Found it

Great little use of a manmade hideaway and good camouflage! Not inside the powerbox so no need to open.

We were right where gps took us but couldnt find searched for 20 minutes or more. Any clues be welcome

Fun little find. TFTC

Found it:-) thank you

Good hide
