A quick find, but had to spend 5 minutes talking to some cyclists about the engraving on the posts opposite lol. TFTC The subject of conversation was what plant do these represent? I thought a kowhai.

Came out tonight with rattll, needing a mystery and a trad for dot days. Having completed the mystery find, we came over here to find this one. Parked on the nearby street and walked back to the underpass. At GZ, no problems in a quick find, although some discretion required as a jogger went past. All well in the container. Signed, and returned as found. Tftc!

24-Oct-22
Easy difficulty and will only take 5 mins
 
20-Aug-22
Not a big fan of anything involving a green box so I was a bit reluctant to shove my hand underneath anymore than I needed to. Looked from the path side and spotted something that looked like it could be a cache. It was. Then had to wait for a muggle and her dog to pass before I could put the cache back.
 
15-Aug-22
Great little cache - Miss 6 spotted it while I was being confused!
 
08-Aug-22
Found quickly with the clue, I feel like I'm following on your daily walking paths through the gardens, thank you very much!
 
01-Aug-22
A lovely sunny day for a change, so we decided to visit the Hamilton Gardens to do a spot of caching.
After visiting the Gardens we headed across the road to find this cache. Why did Northwood cross the road? Well, like us he probably didn't know the tunnel was there. We used it to make our way back again. TFTC.
 
16-Jul-22
A nice quick find for us after a stroll around the gardens today. Not sure why we didnt take the underpass and check out the murals but we did manage to safely cross the road.

Clever little hide. A quiet subway when you are under the road and nice link to the gardens. Wondered if someone is living here, they keep their things very tidy if they are. Tftc

A slow trip up to Auckland for the Mega next weekend. Stayed the night at the Classics Museum on Rifle Range road. Got so hot today that we headed to the Botanical gardens swimming hole. Lots of people in the refreshing water. Afterwards jumped on the my bike and this was the closest cache. No problems finding the cache. Thanks for the smiley.
