The cache owner is not responding to issues with this geocache, so I must regretfully archive it.

Please note that if geocaches are archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ for lack of maintenance, they are not eligible for unarchival.

Hi

It appears that this cache has been inactive for quite some time. Is it going to be replaced or should it be archived to make room for possible future caches? If the cache owner does not contact me within Three Weeks, I'll assume the cache needs to be archived.

While I feel that Geocaching.com should hold the location for you and block other cachers from entering the area around this cache for a reasonable amount of time, we can't do so forever. Please either repair/replace this cache, or archive it so that someone else can place a cache in the area, and geocachers can once again enjoy visiting this location. Also, if you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past and am looking forward to seeing your cache up and running in the future.

Thanks for your understanding,

Regards,
TheCur8or
Geocaching.com Volunteer reviewer

Action required

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

this needs checking

Dnf

No luck here either. Maybe it's time to archive this one. Too many DNF's.

Another one I just had to try, but no..

Gave up at 09:25

ISAG

Had a dozen people looking for this without success.

DNF

Also looked quite extensively about GZ with no luck so I put my last cache replacement in place with a page from a notebook as a log strip. It is not well camoflaged and I avoided an obvious place to put it as I thought curious kiddie muggles may discover it. Remains to be seen how long it remains. If someone else does find the original, please feel free to remove this.

Looked everywhere but couldn't find it.TFTC

Couldn't find it today, saw the pic how it looks like. Looked into every possible hiding hole under benches and table, but didn't find the cache

Grabbed it on a beautiful late-summer day. Luckly no muggels around and quickly found.

Nice quick find of a well hidden cache.TFTC.

On the road for our first venture into the North Island with our little caravan to explore this part of the country. It is not a caching expedition as such, but we do manage to stop for one or two []. We’ve been on the road now for 16 days since arriving in Wellington and have made it to Napier. Had a variety of weathers, but mostly ‘good’, and have already seen and discovered lots of interesting things about our country that are new to us. Our travels brought us to your cache, as we travelled north, many thanks, purplegoosenz, for bringing us here. We’ve had great fun so far and look forward to finding a couple more caches as we travel on our way. TFTC.

Thanks for the cache. Just visiting from Canada

A quick find on a rainy day! Visiting area and staying nearby. TFTC

Ich reise mit elchis1 und dem Team. TFTC

Ich reise mit dem Elchteam und cache gerne. TFTC

Ich reise mit den elchis1 und gehöre zum Team. TFTC

Juppieh! Our 1000th Cache

Wir cachen mit dem Elchteam. ( känguru05, Mou12 und MrJona). Im Team macht cachen mehr Spass und einer hat meistens den richtigen Blickwinkel ( von unten oder von oben ). Momentan sind wir für 2 Monate in NZ unterwegs und sind begeistert von der Landschaft und den vielen Caches. Grüsse aus der Schweiz und TFTC

Short stop here to find a cache. Thank you.

Good hide. TFTC and the placement. Cheers

Found it this cache with Cic
TFTC!

I found this cache together with my partner Pityulino during our holiday in New Zealand. On this day we visited Te Awanga to taste and purchase a couple of bottles of good wine in a nearby winery. Of course we had to search for the nearby caches as well. We found a total of 5 caches during the day. This one was the third of them. We had the leave the geo-location twice, because the seat was in use when we arrived. Our third attempt was successful and finally we had the cache container in our hands. TFTC!

Qwesy!

Luckily for us no one was too close so I was able to locate the cache, sign the log and return to vehicle without any trouble. TFTC

Really nice place. Nobody’s here. I’m walking alone around the coast, such a wonderful time. Tftc.

Thank you for hiding the cache. Good spot. The paper is full and there was no cap on it.

Quick find tftc

Say it as we drove in needs a new log book tftc

The log was full could sign it

I was driving through the Hawkes Bay and stopped to grab some of what I thought would be easy drivebys. Turns out some were easier than others! A good day of finds. Thanks.

In Napier to hold a black tie dinner last night for work. Out and about early this morning, given the lateness of the hour that I got to bed and feeling reasonably ok, so I decided to do a bit of caching on the way home.

Another quick find here so I could get back on the road and head to the next one.
TFTC

Great find by geokid. Log full. Off to find some more

Left set off from home yesterday about 9am after Mr watcache finished work got some ;lovely caches along our way even took the time to do some bush walks even thought wet cold and windy it all adds to the adventure, went out saw the ranges with snow on them and then across to see the beach areas so beautiful its been great and now today been around town a little and then onto old mcdonalds farm now to get some other caches in the area.Wasn't sure what we were going to be looking for here, but Mr watcache had a quick find signed the log and placed it back where we found it. Thank you for placing a cache here. cache is all good TFTC so beautiful here.

Quick easy find. Log full TFTC

Great place to stop for lunch!

Quick find

Found it, hint spot on

Was having fish n chips and decided to see if there was any caches around , turns out we were on one haha

Quick find on a quiet morning. TFTC

Its Been a while and now its time to catch up on all the logging that I've put off to a rainy day (while it may not be raining, where we were heading the roads are still closed hence sitting here doing this).

Over here for the Arts Deco Festival and a little bit of caching thrown in. We headed over early so as to get at least a little of the fine weather before the change and a weekend of rain. Just the opportunity to grab a few quick caches before heading along to view the Ganet colony. A great spot here full of eager people about to start the walk along the beach to cape kidnappers.
Finally managed to make the grab before moving on

So thank you for the placement, thank you for the cache.

Thankfully this spot was vacant today. Did a couple of laps before taking a good proper look. Tftc!

Nice bike along the coast with my sister. Thanks so much for the cache. Happy near year.

Feeling like things are looking up for my caching-to-Clifton-day. Muggles around but retrieval easy to do unobtrusively when you sit in the right place. Thanks for the cache.

Nice location thanks

Walking along the bike trail on warm afternoon. Quick find. Love the log paper, Cheers.

Knew right away where to look

Quick find during our drive along the Cape Coast.

Nice quick find after lunch at the park

We hired bikes for the morning and happily pedalled around. Once again I encountered lots of dnfs. Only 3 finds and 6 dnfs.
My husband and eldest went to the car museum while I dragged my youngest son along with me. Yes another smilies.

Found. Clever. And beautiful view to go with it

Thanks for another fun cache!

Found on a brief detour on the coastal bike ride, from Napier to Clifton and back. Great day for it and we had a blast on the bikes. TFTC

Great spot. Cheers

A quick find Master G said he had eaten fish n chips here the weekend before with his Grandparents. He was quite amused he didn't know a cache was so close.

In Napier for the weekend, grabbed a few caches in this area. Easy find after three muggles had there lunch here. Thanks for the cache.

I love these mints

Mmmmm mints!

Nice Spot easy find

A short stop on our way to take the tractor ride to Cape Kidnappers. A few people were about, but at a safe distance.
The nice little hide was soon located. TFTC

Wandered over to GZ but had to bide our time, having quick looks between muggle cars going past. Cache was soon spotted, grabbed, signed & then had to wait for another moment to put it back.
Thanks for setting this up purplegoosenz

Nice find on a beautiful day! Was here for a wedding and stopped in for it

First on new log. Nice wild beach. Awesome spot helpful hint. Tftc.
