Mt. Somers Dice Bonus (Canterbury) Staveley, South Island, New Zealand
By 8ManAfter on 03-Jan-18. Waypoint GC7GPQA

#2 has now been replaced, so I've (re-)updated the calculations for this one again.Now, if only someone would come out to make a find!

In NZ for the Dunedin Mega Mashup coming in a couple of days. After picking up the windowed brick on wheels, we were off to fill our picnic basket full of cache finds and have too many options available to choose from. Hopefully we wont get overly distracted by caches not on our targeted list for this trip.This cache is on our list GreenGecko 1 walked straight up to this one and we claim a find.

Muggle65 and l are in NZ for the Dunedin Mega. We also have some visiting to do so we are all over the place. We picked up our camper van and are discovering the joys of a very gutless vehicle.Muggle65 and l started off at daybreak to try and beat the rain. It was very windy and we wussy Queenslanders were rugged up nicely. We were enjoying days in the high 20s and low 30s at home so it is very cool for us here. After scribbling a few numbers in our notebook, we had some good looking coords and continued walking upwards. Cache was found right where it should be in perfect order.Thank you for the fun

As #2 is missing, I've updated the calculations for this cache to remove the need to find that one. So sorry for the trouble, but I am having problems getting back out to the site.

I will be heading up here in the near future (hopefully) to have a good look, and replace if necessary. Sorry for the delay!

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

This is the final in a string of caches that al have to be found to locate the final. One of those is missing and has been for some time by the looks of it. This one is therefore impossible to locate.

Got to the top but unable to fullfil the puzzle cache as there is still a cache missing in actions, really could do with been sorted

Back in business! Keep safe, and thanks for your patience.

STAY HOME, STAY SAFE, STAY SMART!

DISABLING FOR NOW. ANY LOGS POSTED FROM NOW UNTIL THE CACHE IS ENABLED WILL BE DELETED.

STAY HOME, STAY SAFE, STAY SMART!

Our first visit to New Zealand, our fourth day.
Our daughter really wanted to do this walk. After six hours I was back in the parking lot, but I was not at the top either.
My husband and daughter made it to the top and logged all caches.

[FTF] Plan "a" was to go to Fairlie and lake opuha to tidy up the new caches and a couple of ftfs . but then I noticed theses were still waiting to be found so plan "b" on the track by 10
.finally made it to the final @2.00 after a few speed wobbles at #4 and #3 of the track series.
Wont be going any further today weather not on my side and the sole of one of my boots is falling off !!!
Great series shame I couldn't get to the top but a wise man knows when to turn around fav for ftf of course

A punishing walk but very rewarding, with 8manafter and Tandem 4, waited for the publish and then the first to finder to log the find. This isn't a small wander and you should go prepared for if the weather turns, in these Alpine climates it can turn quickly.
The walk is definitely worth the views as well as challange and finds. FP from me
