I took JrGun9 and YoungestGun9 out to find this cache and its multi neighbor.
JrGun9 led the way to the cache but I spotted it easily and tipped off YoungestGun9 to make the find.
Really interesting reading about the second purpose of this park!

A super quick find. Walked straight up to it. TFTC
 
06-Nov-18
I arrived at GZ, and checked the obvious clue item and no cache anywhere near. Not sure how near the clue item it's supposed to be, but did a general search of the area and still nothing. In the end I had to settle for yet another DNF.

Was in the agapanthus but got there. Left an Aotearoa pin. TFTC

i am up in new plymouth for a few days visiting mum in law and decided i needed to locate a few more of the newer caches here in new Plymouth. This is certainly high and dry and has a great view of the field below. it was quickly located signed and returned to its place and as there was no one anywhere around all was safe.
thank you for this cache another smiley face and another caches for the mystical creatures souvenirs.

10-Mar-17
Decided it was time to tackle some of the greater new plymouth multis. The nearby multi however meant searching in plain sight of muggles where as there was just one person in this park and she was leaving.
Easily located and logged the cache, must have fluked a window as more dog walkers turned up as I was driving away.

Cheers.

Just around the corner from the Geo Dog's house, so me and the Geo Kids had to take him for a walk this morning, not to sure who was more surprised, the kids finding the cache or me finding my glasses, lost them when I tried to find this one in the dark on Christmas Eve, thank you to whoever hung them on the fence, the reason I only buy $2 reading glasses, I keep losing them, tftc TaraTed
