Logs
After spending most of the day in the hot sun at a sporting event up north, I thought I should make use of the long evening to pick up a few caches in the Puketi area before heading home.
After a nice walk around the loop walkway, hit he road again and this cache was a nice quick find here in the hint location. TFTC

NZ is back at level 2 so we can go geocaching again. Please wash your hands and stay safe. Happy caching!
IMPORTANT: Due to New Zealand's recent State of Emergency declaration and a nationwide lockdown due to commence at 11.59pm Wednesday 25 March, this geocache is disabled until further notice. Logs from now until the lockdown is officially lifted will be deleted. While geocaching is a fantastic was to get physical exercise and support good mental health, there is risk of spreading the virus by many people handling a geocache. Not worth the risk. Stay home and solve a puzzle instead! Kia kaha. Be kind. Stay home. Wash your hands.
Nice find with woolwood9 today.
*We enjoyed the drive / walk around the area.*
Stamped logs as tm/ww NZ which may just look like a black smudge on plastic logs!

*Thanks Skaga for your caches in the area.*

I spotted sign of Puketi on the road at last night. A book guide helped us decide to visit this original forest. So far we are heading for a small Kauri circuit. I like stately pines.
Thanks for the cache.

Včera večer jsem zahlédl na silnici směrovku na Puketi. Letmý pohled do knižního průvodce nás navnadil. Zatím míříme k malému Kauri okruhu. Líbí se mi statné borovice.
Díky za keš.

Out for a bit of a drive this morning to collect a few caches. A nice Puketi View from here and some very inquisitive cows across the fence. Thanks.
I am having a drive around near Kerikeri today picking up the odd cache.
Cheers for the cache.

(1862) Up in the mid North on a caching raid today, Great to pick up some easier road side caches to help the count. TFTC
TFTC. It is a lovely drive through this location although it was a very misty and wet evening.
I was up in Whangarei for the long weekend and today joined up with tikitour and PageHeart for an all day road trip around Russell, Waitangi, Kerikeri and the outskirts of Puketi Forest. It was a great day out with great company, lots of caches found and pleasingly not a single DNF! We mostly signed the logs with some variation of TPV for our caching names.
Towards the end of the day we drove around the back roads by Puketi Forest, finding all the caches around here. All caches were nice quick park and grabs. TFTC!

Out for a days geocaching road trip with mr tikitour, Vistra and Pageheart. travelling around the mid north and into Puketi forest. What a great day, weather was good, great company , lunch on a deck overlooking the beautiful Tapeka point and not a DNF today.....we signed the log in variations of TPV to save space and time.
After visiting the forest we toured around to pick up all the new caches. Thanks for placing.

So today saw a geocaching adventure with Vistra, Tikitour and myself. Our adventurer started early in the morning and saw us heading for a bunch of caches both new and old in Russel and Puketi Forest and surrounding back-roads. In total we spent over 14 hours on the road and out caching visiting places that we would never have gone without caching,

A quick park and grab. Unable to check out the view due to misty evening. I like the camo on these new caches. TFTC
No view tonight. It's been raining today and the rain has just stopped. Lots of fog around but we have been down this road before and explored the wonderful track nearby. Another easy find with great paint on the container. Another Joint First to Find, TFTC
