By witchegurl on 20-Nov-15. Waypoint GC674X7

I am not currently geocaching and feel i should open this area to other current cachers.

Soon saw the green pouch....but nothing inside....so we put a replacement pill bottle with waterproof paper inside...
Hope that's ok with CO.

Thank you for the cache with a friendly spider inside

A lot of rubbish in area, a quick find tftc

An easy find. All good. TFTC.

Nice quick and easy cache find here today. Tftc

Nice hide dispite the earwigs ... and the rubbish dumped near GZ. Beautoful day for caching.

TFTC. Nice pouch. Found quickly after work at night with phone torch in hand.

A rare day that we had to ourselves and reasonably sunny as well, so we set out nice and early on a Sunday to enjoy some caching in the west. MrNZT started heading into the property, but that was not needed and MrsNZT found the hide quite quickly. TFTC!

between the showers if that was possible! it was a quick sneak in and there it was just staring at me! thank you for this cache .
Up in Auckland for the weekend and a few extra days staying with my sister in west Auck and trip over to northcote to visit a 102year old aunt on here birthday. so i was able to pick up a few caches around about and we even nhad a lovely day for our Rangitoto day.

Had to come out to Henderson today to pick up a part for my daughters car from Mazspare just around the corner, so headed over here afterwards to collect a couple of caches while in the area, cheers

Quick find on the way home
All ok
Thanks

Quick park and grab whilst in the area collecting a few things. Cache in good condition. TFTC

After a big tramp out the day before I enjoyed a late start into the day to allow the muscle sore to calm down. It still did hurt walking to GZ but it was good to stretch those muscles. Searched for a while before ignoring the danger signs to get to GZ. TFTC

Was in the area this morning so stopped here for a quick PnG. TFTC

Another smilie after finding a park. Found the sneaky hide thx.

New log and reattached.

No parking at GZ, so parked on Garelja Rd and wandered over. Stepped into GZ and hunted around. There is lots of rubbish here and a bad smell. Couldn't see the cache, and felt like I needed to be decontaminated afterwards

I was out this way for work, early for my meeting. What better way to pass the time than pick up a geocache to pass the time? Quick park and grab.
Great camo - even had a resident slug inside cache!
Pouch has detached from original placement but otherwise ok

Found on my recent trip to Auckland, I was staying nearby with friends and we grabbed this one on a walk to the nearby liquor store. Nice easy find, TFTC!

Out and about for some caching fun today, taking advantage of the splendid Autumn weather. This was my first cache of the day. I invented some parking and crossed the street. Popes my head into the bushes and spotted the hide. Repositioned myself to complete the find. Looks like the cache isn't attached as designed anymore. Cheers for the cache placement!

A quick grab on a quiet mornings

Quite an odd little spot, who knew factories and distribution centres could have some mystique about them. Well let's face it they don't, but still New Zealand success stories are still good when you don't have shared driveways with them in real estate for the over-privileged.

Anyway, I liked your hide much better than I liked anything about the actors involved with this company. Holiday weekend an ideal time to come and look. TFTC. All good here.

Needed a cache today to fill in my last day on the calendar - a quick park and grab on the way past. TFTC

I was passing by and stopped off for a QEF. TFTC

Grabbing a few local caches today and started here. No troubles here and had the cache in hand quickly before the next shower came through. TFTC

Nice quick park and grab

Doing some caching out west. This spot has attracted its fair share of emptied then discarded drink containers. None of them seemed to be Charlies products though. TFTC

Found parking nearby, then had to wait for the area to clear before I could come and search. I spotted some tree's had been cut down, so was worried the cache might have been felled? Thankfully the cache is obvious when you see it, and is all safe and dry. Thanks for the hide

Last cache of the afternoon. On the way home now with Nodster74 to cook up some goat flaps and choko. Planning for a cozy Autumn evening with the cats tftc

Out for collecting a cache for my daily streak. this one looked easy and near by. managed to find it quickly. now heading for a drive around... tftc.

Another fun cache. SL TFTC

Thanks for the quick find

Back up in Auckland again for work but with a few hours to spare today I decided to go caching out West. I parked around the corner out of the traffic and walked back to GZ from there. Nicely constructed cache here. TFTC, Biggles.

Great concealment from the main road-spotted cache before I'd even read the description
Tftc

I walked right past this one, then had to make an exit as a worker read the gas meter nearby in the street. I still looked at a few other places before I returned and made the find. TFTC.

Out for a stroll in the soggy around henderson valley this evening. Quickly saw the cache and signed the log in cover, promptly made my way out of the little wilderness to stand next the fence and greet passersby. Thanks!

Driving past with Team Welsh and made a quick stop for this series. Thanks.

Had arranged to met up with Trout-fly today to pick up as many drive by caches as we could. Had a great time finding 35/35 for the day, TFTC

Yummy Charlies Juices, easy find, Thanks

Took a min then ahaa nice tftc Lokky 1 4 January 2016 21:29

Haven't tried any of Charlie's beverages.
Cute cache-pouch. But I can sense that there will be problems with dampness once it gets worn out.

Thanks for the cache!

Didn't need to go too far off piste for this one. Cheers.

In Auckland for the holiday season, ime for a few caches whilst here.

Thanks to all the CO's for their hides.

If we were just 5 minutes later this could have been akward. Geocchi and I, having just signed as Geopaz, were getting in the car when a dog walker raced under bushes with fly already undone I don't know who would have got the biggest fright if we were still there signing. A close call tftc

A quick drive by cosigned with Pazzabella as GeoPazz TFTC

After having a break during the hottest part of the day Vistra and I were ready to tackle some finds again, some were published whilst we were on siesta (if we had been in the car we may have even made a go for ftf) but that did help us plot the route we were now going to target. Took a min or two in the dark.

[u][Teal]2016 Mega Event Labour weekend in Turangi visit [url=http://www.nzmega2016.nz/]New Zealand Mega 2016[/Url] [/Teal][u]

Having finished work for the year and being greeted with a nice fine day, yorkshirekiwi83 and I decided to head out and do a bit of caching. After spending the hottest part of the day out Manukau and Mangere, we took a break for awhile and resumed caching in the evening, plotting a route up to Kumeu and back again. Took a little bit of searching to find this one in the dark, but soon had it in hand. TFTC!

Had to wait for a very sick car to crawl past belching clouds of black smoke, before popping in and signing the log.

TFTC

Nobody around today so it was easy to duck in and grab this one.

Neat little hiding spot. And a great product!

Out cruising out west picking up a few

TFTC

Nicely done witchegurl! A little cache a little out of the ordinary. Today is the day I'm off to do a cache swimming in a cave down at Waitomo: D5/T5 with a few fellow nutters, so an early start to the day and I thought I'd come here and get this one and another of yours before I meet evilno9 at his place at 6:15am! Thanks for the cache.

All quiet around gz today so a quick duck in and out, again signed as the 7th DOH! Following gorby around this morning. Cute container.

Previous finder signed as the wrong date so got me all confused at first. Soon had the right date and the log signed. Nice little cache.tftc

had to park a short distance away due to the collection of orange cones along both side of the road. Waiting for muggles in cars to move along. Ducking out of sight for a quick grab and sign, then on my way. TFTC

Nice quick night find on my way home from work. TFTC

Nice quick find the other day on a quick trip up the valley...cheers V.
