Perhaps it was bit to much to ask from my mobile torch at 9:00am. Might try again on my last day in Dunedin.
Stopped on my way by and headed up the path. GPS signal was strong before I reached the path but started to jump all over the place once I was under the overhanging trees. Used the hint and soon had the cache in hand. Nicely done. TFTC.
Visit to Dunedin for a last day with Steve who is on the way out with the big C. His dog coop really needed the wall. TFTC
Left the holiday park in search of some Wonders, parked at the bottom of the hill, and my stomach Wondered what was inside the dairy, so bought the only microwaved pie and a bag of chips for the journey south later. Cache quickly found, was busy signing as a lady and 2 dogs walked down the hill, I Wonder how she didn't see me.
On a three week trip to the lower South Island with tmann421 hunting caches.
Enjoyed the trip around and the challenge of the finds.

I don't seem to be having much luck tracking down 111Paf micros. The easy ones are missing - although noobs log them as found, the signed ones get archived before logging or trees just get logged! Made the climb to spot this one at the right angle quickly and it liked it's little hidey spot. Dry log pages aren't really needing any bags here - there usually isn't any in these caches anywho, and although tatty the logscroll got turned over to the blank sides to sign log afresh. No one came walking past but I wonder if any drivers happen to see a flash of red jersey in their peripheral vision as they drove past below the walkway as I skidded down to the tarmac. Thankyou for this smilie.
I have found this one before but didnt have an account its a awesome geocache with a lovely lookout point
Covid-19 pandemic Alert Level 4 so no one should go caching, stay home, stay in your bubble, save lives.
We are in an airbnb house nearby and have done a cache round. It was found quickly. nicely done!
I have a 3 month sabbatical mostly traveling around the planet. My goal is to find and log 1000 caches. New Zealand is my 4th station traveling from south Christchurch to north Auckland, my first visit here, its far away. This is my sabbatical-cache #502.
Back in dunnas for an event with rayzr...after pitching the tent we wandered around the block for a few handy caches
Quick lucky find as gz didn't match the hint..tftc

In Dunedin for a couple of days for work so of course took the opportunity to find some caches.
Cool little walkway with a view. Climbed higher than I actually needed to but it did mean I was out of site for signing before hopping back down, admiring the view and moving on to the next.
Thanks for the cache.

Out with the dog and enjoying the lovely sunny day. Easy find but cache is now not tied up as string is broken.
A quick find, thanks to the very good hint. The cache has become detached from whatever it was tied to, but is securely tucked into the space.
Got led astray by the slab of concrete in the tree. Once on the right track was a quick find. Thanks for bringing me to a part of town I normally wouldn't need to visit. TFTC
I dun found this here cache. Tried a few hint objects - why were there so many? - before getting the right one. Great views. Tftc!
Must have been blind couldn't find the hint item for ages and it was right in front of me TFTC
This is day three of a ten day trip down to Dunedin and back to move my daughter to Dunedin so she can get her master’s degree at Otago University.
The first two gruelling days were a mad dash to get there and unload my van full of her stuff at her new flat. I earned the eight days to drive back home finding caches all the way.
I am not a fan of climbing, but I will if it means there is a cache to be found. TFTC.

Found it! Got bored while a few hundred metres away, so I decided to go for a walk. Looked in the wrong trees for a little while before finding this one. Tftc.
This is nice. Good hiding spot. Thanks. Bottle clue was in looks like medicine bottle. Cool.
First find today, was looking at the wrong rock and tree for a second, then made the quick find. It is a nice view, but didn’t go further. TFTC 111PAF.
Day 5 of 8 touring around the South Island.
Not much happening today. It’s a bit cold so we do the touristy thing and head out to Larnach castle. Nice walk around, great views although not the best day for it. An interesting part of NZs history. After that a bit of shopping in town, then it was back to the digs to put the feet up and keep warm. Except I wanted a few local caches for the day, so left Jo at home and went for a drive for an hour or so. Found the short-cut between St Clair and Larnach castle while I was at it. Thanks to all COs.

An evening leave pass from the holiday park so picked up a few, this being the first. Nice view of the lights around town. Cheers
I had the company of a lovely white cat the whole time I was here but it just watched rather than helped in the search. Final cache for the day and all ones from 111PAF. TFTC # 12,434
More like a big lump of clay than a rock in the bottom of the tree. Hot day, fantastic view. Tftc.
A little tricky as it needed hands to hold on to prevent slipping while at the same time needing hands to get the cache! All done safely (sort of!)
Fortunately the only muggle passed by before I started, it would have looked decidedly odd to him if I had been at the exact GC when he passed!
Cache is in good condition.

Being here soon after school finished proved not to be a great idea as there were a couple of boys hanging around the cache site. I did begin to wonder if they knew about the cache and were deliberately being annoying to frustrate me. I waited a few minutes at a higher elevation to admire the views; at least this site provided a good excuse to be here. Eventually, my tormentors moved along and I swooped in to make a quick find, exactly where I predicted the cache to be.
Boys at the movies so out solo caching. Approached from above. Had to back track to claim the find. Nearly dropped the lid. Thanks for the cache.
We're from the shakey City..ChCh and spending a few days at the Dunedin Holiday Park..and have a few Caches to find while here..
Not knowing any of the Pathways,we found this one fairly quickly by the Hint..Nice views from up here..TFTC

Our last day in Dunedin we decided to go caching on foot.
With the raincoats in the backpack, we went off to make a round of about 20 kilometer before returning to the campsite.
The route started nice along some nice streets but after a while it became a more industrial area before we reached the city.
After a stop at Cadbury's and a beer at Speights, we hiked back with 14 founds in the pocket, but also 4 not founds, which is relatively much.
This was our first cache of the day and it was well garded by the neighbours cat.
