A short scramble up the dune with the kids and then a quick find. Was expecting to find a regular sized container but after reading the logs it turns out this a micro sized replacement. Thanks rossmcg156.

31-Dec-18
To continue with my personal challenge of having found a minimum of 10 caches for every day of the year I needed to find just 1 cache today to bring my total finds for the 31st December to 10. In preparation for today's raid I had scoped out this location a couple of weeks ago and found that the cache was missing. Sad But, after my logging a DNF the CO quickly replaced the cache.

Today, I cycled down through Bottlelake Forest from Spenser Park to GZ. I was very pleased to find that the replacement cache was still in place. Smile This would be my last cache find for 2018. Thanks for the cache rossmcq156.Time now to head back to Spenser Park and then home for lunch.

Replaced cache with smaller container. Now a 100ml camo container in same spot. Council had obviously done some trimming.
 
16-Dec-18
Stopped by just to check on the cache's whereabouts, in preparation for a planned cyclocache ride early in the new year. The GZ site was pretty obvious, but sadly there were only a few sticks indicating where the cache once was. Sad

Coordinates changed from:
S 43° 29.314 E 172° 43.369

Coordinates changed to:
S 43° 29.314 E 172° 43.469

Distance from original: 441.3 feet or 134.5 meters.

Updating East coordinate as it was somehow published wrong
 
15-Sep-18
A nice easy find. I didnt use the coordinates just used my geocaching sense and located the cach quite quickly. Tftc
 
14-Sep-18
Found it thanks to the coords supplied by Jess.daphne, I agree with S 43° 29.316' E 172° 43.465' (my phone makes that 129m out).
The find itself was easy, the sun was shining, a nice day to visit this side of the city. Smile
I dropped a wee TB in the cache (it's easy to miss so I put it in the bag with the log book).
I've attached a screenshot of my app in satellite mode to show where the posted coords are (private property). I'd be happy to meet the CO sometime and help with getting coords on a phone (I do it these days).
TFTC rossmcg156 Cool
Find # 3491
 
14-Sep-18
Found with Jess.daphne's coords though my geoplacer app says the average position was: S 43° 29.315' E 172° 43.469'. Perhaps the CO could update these coords. Picked up Rincewind's TB to take to another Chch location. Thanks for the hide. A 23° day so very warm.
 
14-Sep-18
Awesome views of the ocean today Followed the description and not the coordinates - which are quite a way off and need updating. Seems like this cache has been busy today. Must be the warm weather. Dropped off a TB. Swapped some SWAG too. TFTC.
 
14-Sep-18
This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.
 
13-Sep-18
Coords sent us to Eros Place. Guessed from the description and had an easy find in the other direction. TFTC

Hi

1. I've read the guidelines.
2. The log contains a logbook pencil, sharpener and swaps.
3. The cache is in place ready to be found.

I used the GPS on my smartphone which is how I find the caches that I've logged. I have been back and checked again ab couple of times and get the same reading from any direction.

Not sure why you get it in the sea.

Cheers Ross
