Spaghetti Junction Churton Park (Wellington) Wellington, North Island, New Zealand
By scrabbly on 27-Jan-17. Waypoint GC6ZQPB

No luck. Had a good look allowing for my age and Grammy leg. Nevertheless, enjoyed finding this track and the exercise. If it’s lost I hope it gets sorted soon. Thanks, anyway.

didn’t find

Couldn't find Feelsbadman .

2nd DNF of the day.. Searched everywhere the hint suggested but just couldn't find anything. My GPS kept taking me about 6 to 8 m down on of the paths and searched there as well in the flax and still nothing.. After 10 minutes, called it a day.. Will wait and see if anyone else finds it before returning...

All quiet at GZ, nice quick find. Tftc!

Nice hide thanks. A bit of water inside so tidied things up a bit, removing the matted pet hair that someone left too

Beautiful day for a walk around cp. Lovely and easy find. Tftc

Found by the "A" team. Thanks!

Took a short break for the start of the school year but I am back! Nice quick walk and find today. Tftc!

Kept reaching forks in the road and going all which ways to find GZ but managed a find in the end. Well stashed away in its little hole and gave me a few scratches for the scratches I put on the log sheet. TFTC

Found the remains of this geocache scattered and the container totally destroyed. Log book is okay. Geogranddaughter and I gathered it all up, took everything back home, found a suitable container at a local op shop and returned the cache on the 10th. Hopefully it won't suffer the same fate. TFTC.

The junction was quickly found, but the cache itself eluded us.

Good spot my brother found it haha

Trying to get exercise in today around my local area. Beautiful day for walking and looking for caches. Thanks

Nice easy find - thanks!

I am not sure if geocaching is a permitted activity during this level 4 lockdown for Covid 19. If it is not permitted please do not dob me in! Although I guess it Is not much different from hunting for teddy bears
I have walked past this locations lots of times but never looked before. It was exactly where I expected it to be.
The pencil in the cache needed sharpening so I pulled out my trusty 60 year old pocket knife and got enough lead to sign it. TFTC

#1086. Had a Trade Me purchase pickup just up the road, so nice easy park, walk and grab for this, my 1086th find, the same number as on the letterbox at my orchard.

Assisted by my US muggles, Kiana and Casey.

Tftc scrabbly.

P.s. the pencil in the cache needs sharpening. Just saying!

Easy find!!!

Chur

Found!

Found with all the geocache friends! Took the TB as we’re going on a road trip!

Quick find with little miss 2.5 and little miss 7. Dropped off a trackable that we found in Dunedin

Easy find

Nice easy one for the kids. TFTC

Found on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Tipped some water out of cache container, log still signable. TFTC

Thanks for the find. Just fyi, log book is getting pretty wet

visiting Churton Park to do a multi and decided to find another couple of caches while in the area, cache found quickly, tipped a bit of water out of the container but the logbook itself was dry enough to sign, TFTC

Second visit here with Selesi but no UlmusLynx this time. Cache was found quite quickly and when replaced was hidden better with suitable material! TFTC.

Found with Gilgul between showers on the way to get a coffee at local cafe TFTC

Found by 6 year old in 5 minutes. Our 3rd find

Found

Found while caching with my four year old. He really enjoyed ‘treasure hunting ‘. He used a magnifying glass he took as swag from another cache to find it TFTC SL

About 15 -20 odd minutes of searching. TFTC!

Found it. Really cool

Easy enough find. Thanks ️

Toys

Nice day for an excuse for a walk. Didn’t have a pen to log. TFTC

A pre bedtime find! Only our 2nd find

Miss 6 found this one just as the sun came out.

Found it thank you

Back in this area tonight, only a few left around here to find. All safe and dry. TFTC

I was nearby for work and checked to see if there were any caches in the area. This one was only 50m or so away. Reasonably quick find although a tad ‘exposed’. Covered up a little better before I went on my way. #1751. TFTC.

An easy find once I selected the correct track. Tftc this afternoon

Another nice little walk in a park All dry here TFTC

Found nicely tucked away TFTC

Nice spot. Straight forward find today. All good here. TFTC

All dried out and ready to go.

Will disable until can retrieve and dry out.

Our first find. Was very easy but contents were soaked so couldn't fill in log book

Found it. Contents are very wet so could not sign book. TFTC.

Found it. Lid of the container was open and contents saturated. Managed to sign the log book, but it needs to be dried out

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

After 30 mins lol tftc, my phones coordinates and location thing was glitchy AF thank you!

This was our final cache for the day as the rain was really setting in now. Luckily it was a quick find as it was easy to spot. Provided a bit more cover on hiding again. TFTC

I have seen spaghettier junctions but, when it comes to walking tracks in urban locations, this one is right up there. I didn't notice any signposts to help visitors to get to where they wanted to go.

Once at ground zero, it didn't take me long to find the nicely hidden treasure. I grabbed the Texas Challenge geocoin that I plan to move to the Kapiti Coast tomorrow.

Took us around 5 minutes to find. Wish we had brought something to swap. TFTC

Quick find with the geofamily once we found the right junction. Geokids loved the swaps and I loved that they were better quality than we often see. TFTC

Quick find with my geofamily. I had to choose the pink swap! TFTC

Quick find with my geofamily. I like the swaps and grabbed a travel bug. TFTC

Easy find. Left a trackable. TFTC

Easy to find once we checked our location.

Cache # 3,870 - a lovely afternoon for a short stroll, and hopefully a quick cache. Stroll was even shorter than I expected. No one around, so checked out the first place the GPS pointed to. Nothing there so decided to wander around the junction and just look. Quickly spotted cache, not well hidden - but if course I knew what I was looking for. Sat on grass and signed log. Dropped in two trackables, took nothing, and replaced cache, with better cover than before. TFTC!

Consecutive caching day # 1,536

Last find in a caching expedition to Churton Park to get a few coins for the team for the Mary Hyde souvenir after I had suffered a caching drought caused by weather and other commitments. Enjoyed exploring an area which was quite unfamiliar to me apart from a relatively small amount of the suburb where I had cached previously and some parts where I had only passed by on the bus,
A quick find once the GPS settled down, until then there were several places that appeared to fit the hint. Nice to see such a good sized cache.
TFTC.

Our first find

Not sure whether the spaghetti refers to the paths or the Churton Park roads. Found using the hint after a few moments. TFTC.

Found pretty quickly but not in the first couple of spots that I tried. Thanks for a nice tidy cache.

#4013. I needed to find a few caches today and decided this one would be a good one to pick up on a sunny clear Wellington day. Parked nearby and wandered down the path. I checked a couple of sites without any luck so read the hint. The cache was then found in the next spot checked. Quite a reasonable size container for a spot that must get walked past quite often. Signed the dry log and replaced the cache as found. Thanks for the cache.

Found it.
An nice afternoon caching in the rare sunshine.
SLTNLN, TFTC.

A few locations tried before finding the right testing spot. TFTC

GPS was bouncing all over the place. Was a pretty quick find though. Really nice view! Tftc

Foolishly accepted the wife's assertion that the cache was not in the obvious place so spent five minutes scrabbling around the wrong bushes. Luckily all was quiet on the spaghetti junction paths. Cache is in good condition.

Picking up a couple of caches today to clear my dot day. A quick find at the GZ. Cache was a little exposed so I covered it up a bit more when I was done. TFTC

Easy find. No muggles around.

Whilst the lad was at swimming, it was the perfect time to pick this one up. TFTC.

A little wander around an old stamping ground. Spotted eventually after looking in a couple of other spots first . Thanks for the cache.

In the area, and a dot day for me so I made a visit. Interesting views from up here, including the ongoing development of the area.

TFTC

Just passing through and stopped for a cache. Cache in good order TNLNSL TFTC

Found with EK.spygirl this evening on our way to dinner. A quick find. TFTC

In town so thought I should try to pick up a few caches on the way back home.
Soon found the cache here.
SL TFTC

Quick find in recently developed area — first comes the infrastructure, then houses, bus routes, and finally caches! TFTC scrabbly.

Out and about this afternoon so I paid this one a visit. Parked in Claverton Grove and walked up the well-signposted path - the cache was a quick find at the third hint object checked. Plenty of signs of others having searched the area too. Signed log, TFTC.

I think the title might be just a wee bit of an exaggeration. I was expecting to see multi-layer flyovers and all manner of compexity! I entered from Tattenhall Grove which turned out to be much closer than I was expecting. Although as I didn't have my car with satnav I got here the old-fashioned way - by making wrong turns and losing my sense of direction. No problem finding the cache on arrival. TFTC.

Tftc. Easy find on this nice Friday evening.

Nice quick cache to fill in a dot day. TFTC

Nice find. TFTC

A nice quick find today while passing through the area. I walked in from Tattenhall and was suprised at how short the walk was! Great spot for a cache, and everything was in good condition.
TFTC scrabbly

Happy Days FTF at 6:15 this morning . A nice QEF before heading down town for my walk around the bays before work. Nice spot, well done on your first placement. Cheers and TFTC

A FDF after the usual crowd racing for the exclusive FTF. Took my time this morning due the the light drizzle falling. A quick find and all in order. TFTC

#8895. Second to find at 07:15. Decided not to park at the closest trailhead on Neston Grove in Churton Park, but to take the longer walk from Derry Hill instead. The path and GZ were all quiet at this time. Quick find. The cache was in excellent condition, all nice and dry inside. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log.

Thanks for bringing us to the site, and …

A short drive from home and when I checked the location after I'd parked there was nothing logged. FTF, perhaps? Actually, no. I wasn't surprised to find two signatures already in the log. 3TF @ 8:05, and I'm going to have to get up earlier!

Nice easy find and home for breakfast. TFTC

Was confused when I saw the name of this one, as there is another Spaghetti Junction cache in Lower Hutt. Look forward to finding them both!
