I had a good look around and could not find it... this one may need checking to make sure it hasn’t been removed.
 
Had another try, no luck. Is it lost?

I haven't had much of a chance to go out geocaching after our release from lockdown, being busy with work and finally seeing my extended family. Today was the first day I had to myself and I was out completing a few errands. Found myself close-by and wondered if there were any caches nearby. I recognised this park as I had visited here before. Always feel a little awkward here, as it feels like someone's backyard even though I know it's public land. Quickly found the cache and hastily made my way back to the car.

Hey just found it with a few friends left a nice gift for next person who can find it dont be pursaded by the residential area

We found the previous cache in this park a couple of years ago so were keen to claim another smiley.
Despite knowing it's a public area it still felt very much like we were intruding so we were pleased to make a quick find.
Very interesting spot. TFTC.

We were on our way home from collecting some caches around Takapuna and as we had some time before dinner decided to come and try to get the little cluster of caches around here.We parked up nearby and walked to this cache.We soon realised we had been to this reserve once before. We were worried to start with about the neighbouring property but once we saw the note on the cache page we followed the recommendation to allow us to make a quick find.All good here.

Nice find with woolwood9 today.
*We enjoyed the drive / walk around the area.*
Stamped logs as tm/ww NZ which may just look like a black smudge on plastic logs!

Odd little reserve, I remember getting another cache here a while ago. Came around the longer way, but unfortunately as I was putting the cache back some people came out of the building right beside the GZ, so I hope this doesn't get muggled, really sorry for getting spotted, TFTC
 
19-Jan-20
A great little treasure near our house. I’ve logged this previously and then spotted that it has been replaced. No pen today so I will come back later to sign log. Tftc
 
19-Jan-20
I plucked up more courage today and got to GZ and the cache. TFTC.
 
16-Jan-20
Really like this unknown reserves and hopefully it won't get swallowed up by neighbouring properties. Parked where suggested and the cache was soon in hand. Many thanks
 
15-Jan-20
Nice and easy to find
Allok
Thanks!

Tftc. Found this last Friday, 10th Jan, but haven’t been able to log until now.

I remember finding a tricky cache in a tree in this wee park before. This cache was much easier. Tftc.
 
Sadly gave up as I came to grief on yucca spines, a muggle was cleaning the building and kids on bikes close by. Think I need to bring a helper. Hints welcome.
 
06-Jan-20
Have visited this little reserve previously - guessing prior to the official title. Strange that such a small piece of land exists, even stranger than sense prevailed, stopping yet another infill development. cache quickly located, all good. TFTC
 
06-Jan-20
Fun easy find!
 
02-Jan-20
Found it, cool info on the land thanks

Needed a cache for the last day of 2019, and we needed to collect something from the North Shore so met Merlot58 to find this cache together. We have visited Rosie Bolt reserve previously and knew it was a rather unusual park. Spotted the cache on our approach, so added some natural camo before returning to our cars.
 
30-Dec-19
Almost forgot to log this one. The last cache of the day. I remember finding the previous cache here, there didn’t seem to be as many trees now so felt bery exposed to the neighbours who thankfully weren’t home. A nice easy hide to find too
 
28-Dec-19
Cute little reserve, no-one around on a Saturday afternoon.
 
21-Dec-19
Really tiny reserve, apart from the risk of a Muggle neighbour the place is very calm to look around and find the cache. It was a quick and easy hunt.

Small reserve, a bit intimidating to snoop around but cache is exactly where it should be
 
20-Dec-19
Checked. All good.

- John has spoken.

It was hard but I found it. It was fun.

Weird little reserve, and not easy to find a way in.

Surprising location. Thanks for the cache. Nice evening for a walk there.
 
04-Dec-19
I was worried about muggles watching, so I gave up after a few moments.
 
30-Nov-19
Thanks for the hint as to where to gain access to this one. Was here at dawn so tip toed in to make a quick find. Hoped the neighbours were still snoring. TFTC Big Grin

I am out and about taking advantage of a day off work to add some finds to my tally. It's a great day for it weather wise. I decided to head to this local hide first, before heading further afield, as it allowed me to avoid the que along esmonde road. I parked up near GZ and entered the reserve by the little building. Nice quick find once I arrived at GZ. I remember finding the earlier hide here. Cheers for the cache (re)placement!
 
15-Nov-19
So cool to find a local reserve I would otherwise never have known about. Thanks!

Its funny how I only just recently found the old cache with helefant a few months back. Noticed this new cache this week and thought this might make a perfect lunchtime journey. Checked the motorway cameras, all clear, so Wairau Rd to Northcote in a few minutes. Nice quick find here. Look forward to see a nice seat or something for people to enjoy. This also covered off another day of improvement on our calendar as well. SL. TFTC.
