DNF Sad
 
14-Jul-24
Passing through Tokoroa today with Kiwi Does Stuff, look a second to locate but once we put the phone away we started using our eyes better. It has been somewhat reassembled but needs a proper log paper added and maybe a tidy up by the CO.
 
14-Jul-24
Out for a random caching day with Reschedule. Found, while it has been somewhat put back together by previous finders, could still do with CO attention
 
28-Jun-24
Struggled but got there in the end
 
28-Jun-24
Got a bit confused but found it
 
02-Jun-24
Looked in the wrong place initially. Then Kimbathelion saw the base of the container in a different location. And found the top on the floor. Put the container back together, and added a log. Tftc
 
02-Jun-24
Found container with no lid, buzzybb found the lid. Added log sheet & returned.
 
25-Apr-24
I think this one might have gone missingL
 
21-Jan-24
I've been staying in Tokoroa for a few days with caching friends. This evening some of us walked around this lake, and completely failed to find any of the caches!It seems pretty obvious where a cache might be, but no cache.
 
11-Jan-24
No lid or contents but still managed to find. Coordinates were a little off
 
10-Jan-24
Sadly all the contents and lid was missing from this cunning cache hide. Pic sent to CO.
 
09-Jan-24
We took a break from driving from Auckland to Taupo to stretch our legs and find a few caches and to do th Ad-Lab.This hide took some locating and sadly it is missing its lid and contents. I have sent the CO a photo. T4tC Brophyzio,Civvnr&MissTreadlightly....(UK) Geocaching.com finds so far 11349

08-May-23
A nice quick find in the park. Thanks for placing your cache.

Ms_KR and I were in Auckland for a few days visiting family, and now we are on the trek home. A bit of a late start, so not as many caches today, but it's not all about the numbers. The sky was moody today, lots of cloud cover, with the occaisional rain shower.

Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches. .
 
26-Apr-23

What a lovely area, we would not have even been aware of it, if it weren't for geocaching. Lots of muggles about enjoying the nice evening after such bad weather. Thankfully was able to locate this one in between the muggles walking around the area. TFTC
 
02-Feb-23
We have looked for this one before with no luck. Today we were doing the Ad Lab here so we gave it a second go and this time we came up trumps
 
02-Feb-23
Didn’t find this one, but we did find a painted rock
 
22-Jan-23
I'd noted the co ords could be slightly off before arriving at gz, so was prepared for a systematic search.
I really had to be mindful of the many passing muggles as this is a very popular place on a sunny sunday morning! So I tread carefully and quietly, and checked regularly, keeping out of sight when anyone came near.
It took a wee while, but eventually the prize was spotted.
Thanks for putting this here in this lovely area
 
07-Jan-23

Passing this way after a lovely stay in the Pureora forest over the week end. Far too fine to go home too quickly, so finding the odd cache or two on the way. Very pleasant area here, lots of families out enjoying themselves. Cache found exactly as the clue said. All good. TFTC

It was a DNF for us also. Showing Wenjing some local caches after she downloaded the app. Does look like reading through the logs that it is here somewhere, but we were unable to find today. I did find the blackberry in my jandals though Smile

We traveled down to National Park today and picked up 22 caches - what fun! Some easy ones, some harder and 2 DNF's Sad. This was not quite where we expected it to be, but checking out previous logs was very helpful. A great spot, TFTC Smile

#8805. I stayed overnight in Tokoroa and was keen to avenge this DNF from 2017. So headed here nice and early (7.30 am) on a Sunday morning. Still a few people out walking dogs. Headed to GZ and started looking in places checked last time. Then went to a different area I had not searched last time. I saw something that triggered a memory from reading through past logs and sure enough there was the cache. Quite a sneaky hide. Its sort of obvious once you see it but I know from past experience you often fail to see the obvious. Signed the logbook and replaced where found. Thanks Brophyzio for hiding it here.
 
06-Nov-20
Every cool spot super fun
 
04-Nov-20
A very cool way to explore with the family...thanks heaps
