Had a bit of a look, before checking the logs, only to find it hasn't been found for a while. At that point I gave up.
Loads of DNFs, and cabbage trees are all dried out so can't really look without getting caught in the tree litter. Owner might pay to check this out and see if still there.
Couldn't find, loads of leaf litter around. There are many of what the hint states in the vicinity so unless you have loads of time on your hands, will take a while to look
Quite a few different hint objects in the vicinity and I couldn’t make the find in the limited time I had. Hopefully next time!
A nice pathway beside the creek. Lots of possible hiding places so was happy to lay a hand on it quickly
(# 6057). Day 5 of my South Island odyssey. Today is getting caches around Timaru as well as having a good look around. A quick find. Everything in order. TFTC
Morning geocaching with moko before leaving town. I had no difficulty pulling this one out from the hide as per hint, but for some reason my hands ended up all black, which entertained the little one. I think I was writing 6/6 for some reason!! TFTC!!
A quick find by Geomum007. Lovely walkway found near our accomm. for the night. TFTC.
On our tour through New Zealand we are locked down here in Timaru for the next four weeks. How good that there are quite a lot of caches to seek.
This one war our first. A nice place on a little stream just round the corner of the holiday park we will live at for the next four weeks. Without the cache we never had seen this nice spot.
It was quite a quick and unnoticed find as the coords are very accurate.
Thank you very much for showing us this little creek! And thank you especially for not disabeling the listing of your caches! In these times geocaching is one of the few activities that are still allowed. We think every cacher is able to mind his health e.g. by wearing gloves or taking along desinfectant tissues.

A school holiday request from miss 8 to complete the 321 challenge- so off we set - a good a time as any since we had to be out of the house for viewings anyway. This is a lovely stop on a road we used to drive weekly. Its nice to stop for a change. Lovely easy hide thanks
Labour Weekend means a camper van holiday. Out on our bikes.
Thanks motoguzzi500 for placing this geocache 7890 find for me.
Sadly there was no large event in New Zealand in 2019 but there are a few Mega events planned in Australia. New Zealand will have another large event in 2020 in Auckland.
======== NZ Mega 2020 ========
Planning for the NZ Mega 2020 event is well underway. It will be held in Auckland over Labour Weekend, 23 to 26 October 2020. Thanks for hiding this geocache.

Delightful mini stroll along the stream and a straight forward find. Contents looking quite old but still usable. Thank you.
In Timaru for an daffodil show, had time for two hour walk to find six caches. Easy find. Thanks motoguzzi500 for the cache.
A lovely long weekend in Geraldine with BCD and a lunch stop in Timaru before heading home. Nice quick find by R TFTC
At last I managed to find and log this cache cheers. It was out in the open so I tucked it back under .
Yup I know I looked and looked but it wasn't there what shame I was looking forward to it

Thanks for the extra hints, was right where we had been looking! 1st ever find!
I couldn't believe that there is an area like this in the centre of suburbia. Took a wee walk and followed the needle to make a discovery.
Thanks

Cache had fallen a bit further down the tree, I put back to original position. Will replace damp log book and add a few more goodies.
Came again but this time with reinforcements but could not convert it to a smiley . If it is the tree where the coords are then it must be very well hidden. (It is the bigger one) If you could possibly check or let me know where to look it would be appreciated. Cheers
Unfortunately even with Dr Google and the help he gave me in working out the hint, I could not find the cache , it is there as people are logging easy find etc, but not me. Spent a good 15 mins here before giving up. I never knew this little walk existed. Cheers
Found while on a weekend leave pass with Karma Reprint, heading up and down the Waitaki Valley with a few bike rides and wanders on the way. Well, can't fault the title, it's where it says it is. Cheers
A wee walk and a quick find. Cheers.
Off on a caching weekend with Kiwi Moose, to the Waitaki and slightly beyond. Great weather, great place to be, great company, and more than a few little plastic boxes.
Thanks to all of the CO's for the hides. Cheers.

The weather forecast was for a southerly change with rain, so StreetWalker and I set out early - before coffee - to take advantage of the fine weather and find a cache or three in Centennial Park. After lunch, we had a less strenuous time, mainly driving to various caches.
SW went to one side and I the other, and I found the cache. Some serious engineering work has gone on here. TFTC.

Today was an early start for a day trip to Timaru... Didn't take too long once I figured out the hint - thanks Google! Took TB. TFTC (3605)
7505. Found this one without the GPS. Knew what the hint signified and just searched the appropriate place. We are staying just a couple of hundred metres away, in a straight line, in the camping ground. Thanks. Rodney and Iris.
Find #17 on Team Walker's epic adventure from Blenheim to Bluff and back. Closest to 'home' cache for us on our visit to Timaru. TFTC
Everything all tip top and good to go nice hide in an area of Timaru I didn't know existed tftc
We didn't know what the Hint meant..so just put our Geobrains into gear,and it was quickly spotted..
Nice wee Walkway..TFTH
