Queenstown to Wanaka today via Cromwell. We grabbed a few caches on the way.Did this fruit series in the car. Several need attention due to broken containers or full logs Here the container is smashed with no protection for the logsheets Just about found space to sign TFTCTim and Viv - ddm
Out with Natalie247 grabbing a few in surrounding Cromwell. Loos like a great series of caches. TFTC RowenaD
Took a detour to find this cache, and loved what I found (I have one of these pineapples at home too!) Happy to sign the log, all good, but sadly the pill bottle is in need of some duct tape, or a replacement.Another fun find, whilst exploring roads less travelled in Cromwell
Thanks RowenaD for the cache. Its #1831 for us. We found your cache on Wednesday 15 November 2023. Quick park n grab today
RowenaD, your geocache Little Fruit - Pineapple (GC70J1A) needs urgent maintenance. We visited it on 15 November 2023 and the pill bottle has broken down in the uv and needs urgent replacementCheers Bunkshyde
Bit of a look around Cromwell today, and decided to use the fruit as a bit of a series. Thanks for the cache.
Nice easy find, these fruit caches have been a bit of fun and great to do on your bike
G'day from Australia!!!
Stumble Trip had been in NZ for the past 6mths, working on the Milford Track. Stumble's Mate flew in to meet up with her and we spent the next 2wks traveling the beautiful South Island in a camper. Whilst the weather wasn't favourable for the first week, we had an awesome time and travelled some 3,200+kms, seeing some beautiful sites and staying in just as beautiful campsite along the way.
Thanks to all the CO. Unless otherwise stated, all caches were found in good condition.

Love the cache! All good here. Found with Piwaka54 on our epic southern adventure. TFTC
First find at 7:55am. Need 50 today for a Geocaching Licence Challenge. Thanks for all CO's placing these, especially those with safe parking. This is number 1.
A quick find and I am now driving around finding caches after doing a reasonable amount of walking this morning
Making a detour on my way to Arrowtown to get some fruit. Quickly found here. Thanks!
just loved this little one so i took a photo .
Today was set aside to do a geo caching day to Cromwell if the weather was unsuitable for skiing which is was , so we set off early at about 8.30 and finally arrived home about 5.30 with approx 41 caches in total including the adventure lab , so we were very pleased. we took a muggle who have been intro' to geocaching briefly on a few days before and so today was a big geo caching experience for her and as i had 2 GPS's with me she was able to use one quite independently by half was thro the day.
we enjoyed spending some time at the historic Cromwell area which none of us had actually explored before and where we had lunch at the Grain cafe.
we only had 2 DNFs and both were of puzzle style caches which we had solved but there was nothing at GZ.
thank you for these caches

You gotta love pinapple Found on a caching day trip to Cromwell with Haydnseek.
On holiday staying in Wanaka and decided to check out a town we haven't visited on previous trips and today it was Cromwell. Had a good time exploring the town including the museum which is near the cafes in the town centre area and then some caching - a perfect day really!
At around 3pm I was eyeing up the series as we had finished exploring the town. 'How long can I cache for then?' 'Until you get a DNF was the response' Well if that was not motivation to find them all I don't know what was! Woohoo local caches and series here we come!!
Nice quick find and cool camo themed to the series - yay!

We're hunting Tour caches and anything that's not slowing down our objective to much. We scored 3x nights at Rotary Glen with max occupancy of 10 vans. The plan was just staying 2 nights but it's just to nice here. We never explored Cromwell, just raced through so we're going to make the most of it. The wind is already picking up and growing into a decent storm as the day progresses. A quick find before we're going to indulge ourselves into some more fruit caches, yum! Thank you RowenaD
We are out and about in the area finding some caches and enjoying exploring and revisiting other areas again.
Today we focused on healthy eating, making sure we got our recommended number of servings of fruit and veges.
Thank you RowenaD.

This was the first Little Fruit we found today, and so began our fruity adventure. I don’t know why we are geocaching in 30 degrees, but there we were,looking for fake fruit all over the place! Thanks for this one. Found with Flumsy2
Pulled up next to GZ spotting the hint for the hide. Base of pineapple cache missing and yes log strip full. I managed to cram a screwtop pill bottle in the cavity, leaving the fullup one and adding a few log strips for now. tftc Rowena, family KNCN says hi!
Cache 305 PNG this cache needs a new log totally full only just squeezed my signature in there

Out for the day doing the Little Fruit trail. Mr S went for this one as well. The log is full here as well. Signed as SH. Mmmm love pineapple. In fact Mrs S is very partial to all tropical fruit, but not partial to living in the tropics.
Thanks RowenaD.
Thanks RowenaD.
Easy find. I tried to open the container at the wrong end. I'm glad I didn't break it. A favourite for this series.
Delayed log, did those once a week ago.
My last one of the cute fruit caches. Loved the containers.

Had a great time finding caches today as we journeyed back to Gore from Queenstown, took the long way via cromwell. Was a lovely mild winter's day, and although we found a few around Cromwell, I think we might have to come back and get the rest! TFTC loved the fruit series
On a 7 day caching trip with Nosynel. Seventh day on the road focusing on caches in Cromwell. Pineapple found. Thank you!

My bag broke . The log book was full and no SpongeBob SquarePants to be seen. Jude_E and I spent last night in Arrowtown and are planning on finding the fruit series, doing the lab cache and other geocaches in the Cromwell area. It is our final full day on this Otago Road trip.. Thanks RowenaD for creating this hide. It was find 8714 for me.
