Searched for about 30 minutes but nothing. Knew we were in the right place and saw lots of Jolly Green Hearts, but no cache....It must be gone!!Hunted for ages - nothing found 
this is not the cache for you if you don't like spiderwebs! It was fun though!
this is not the cache for you if you don't like spiderwebs! It was fun though!Well, I spent 45 minutes looking for it, no luck whatsoever, so a DNF it is. But I did get cut, slashed, bruised and bloodied as I struggled through the greenery, so at least I got something...!
Had a look around but could not find, send younger one in to have a look in a likely spot and there it was. TFTC
Nice but windy walk today. We didn't have to search long for the cache

Pleasant seaside walk but finding cache was a mtter of sorting out the altitude. Just love the amazing planned walkways everywhere in New Plymouth, you are all so fortunate to have these facilities !

Great place for a cache tucked away from people passing. Cache easily found & in good condition. Out: TB cushion. There were no other trackables in the cache. In Geocoin pen, which wants photos taken & posted. TFTC
Definitely there and exact on coord. Is easy to see from correct place:-). Moved a tb along
Well either its really well hidden or its gone and been muggled. Gave up concluding its muggled due to lots of evidence in the form of empty beer bottles. Beat me on this one
I found this on Nov 22 but on a return visit with Possum and Cleo couldn't locate it.

No luck with this one even after an extensive and much too much time spent search. Noted that a previous log has recorded that it is not in the position the he has found it in last time so perhaps it needs to be checked in case it has gone AWOL
Lots of hunting with the help of Cave Weta who had found it before but we had to give up. Interesting that others have failed too. Perhaps it has been muggled.
Looked for this in the middle of winter last year with no success but today I'm sure I was in the right place (different than last time) but still no success. So this lives for another day
GPS insisted on indicating a location on the wrong side of the picnic table - but a bit of triangulation sorted it out. Left TB F12HMQ "Black maneki neko" - now with a silver fern keyring. Took golf tee
No luck here. Running late for dinner do had to abandon. Sure it is here, just too many spots to bash into...
Yep, 4th attempt and finally found. I have just decided to give up when I checked another area at GZ. Thanks
gps had us a little off the spot, but with perseverence we finally found it.

meet up with early rizers at another cache further down the walk and told myself and muzyman that they couldn't find this cache-that's all we need to hear that ones gone missing so off we all go to hunt -didn't take to long to find -sometimes good to push the old body further in and look back-great to meet up with mr-mrs early rizers-thanks for the pens--TC-tried to log the travel coin 2007 GENERIC GEOCOIN which i got from this cache but not logged to this cache
First attempt, nothing. Second attempt, nothing. Third attempt with the help of Muzy Man and Jumboz. success. This one was tough. Our GPSr did not take us to GZ. This is not our favourite type of cache. I can see why so many logs are DNFs.

Here are a couple photos of Muzy Man and Jumboz who helped find the cache. I don't think it shows too much.

Fairly easy find on our bike ride of the amazing coastal walkway. Thanks very much
Found it! took a while, being too literal with clues. Travel bug, bulldog clip, photo in. nothing out.

YAHOO, yes its still there, we arrived and started looking, then noted the string of DNF's on this one so we were not holding out much hope, but a minute or so later we had the cache in hand, I must admit it was not a very hard to find cache....... but thats always the case when you find it quickly, I could imagine if you had looked in the many other of the same type of plant you could be excused for the DNF....... Keep looking guys its there!!

We couldn't find this one and after checking out the most recent posts on here we're wondering if it's been muggled?
The site looked like a bit of a hangout for people looking for a place to drink/hide/whatever.
Had a good hunt around but no luck.

No luck with this one. Either it was hidden very well on New Year's day or it is gone.
I agree with the visiters of 1-1-2010.
We have looked quite a long time but could not found it.

Found during a New Year's day stroll along the walkway - a well placed cache, thanks. The logbook is full.
Had a few problems - there were a lot of bottles and other rubbish that made the area look like a hangout for riff-raff. We were unhappy about looking in any of these areas so moved on.
One of the last caches on the New Plymouth trip with Indiana Jill, BookwormMum and Kayaknkiwi. We took a more scenic avenue but got there in the end. Nice hiding spot! TFLN. TFTC!
Off caching in NP with the team. Thanks for the cache and fun along the way. Nice spot, no probs with muggles today. TFTC!
In NP for a spot of caching and other fun with Seattle’s Best, Kayaknkiwi and Indiana Jill. Thought we'd get a few on our way out of town - found this one without too much difficulty. Must be one of the top locations for a bowling club every! TFTC!

Found it thanks, New Plymouth's first cache. Been here since August 2002, a well used logbook.
An easy find while enjoying the award winning New Plymouth Walkway.

Found after a major search of the area. Area had been recently mowed and vegitation was quite wet. Nearly gave up then it showed itself. TNLN TFTC
Out for a family bike ride and zoomed in here and showed some friends' boys geocaching. Went after tsunami warning lifted! TFTC
Spent a lot of time searching among various possible plants, but no luck. GPS seemed a bit flukey. Thanks for the fun, anyway!
Very nice views indeed on this beautiful day ..... Nice spot to sit for a while
