Did manage to find two magnets on a power pole away from the GZ, and a bird feeder but that wasn't terrain 1 (wheelchair friendly). Sadly no signs of the cache anywhere.
Lovely location! Unusual hiding place. Not neasy to put the cache back securely though which may be why it was found on the ground in the past. Thank you
What a lovely place! After finding the cache, I spent some time by the water watching the ducks. TFTC!!
Out for another July Souvenir streak day. Quick find of the nicely done hide, thanks Bax001!
Out caching with NZ_B today to find a few caches towards the new solstice challenge starting today. We found ourselves along this lovely waterway - a nice park with lots of ducks - but didn't get to see the namesake today. TFTC.
This was a quick find -I tried to get the car close to o this cache as well so the map would say I was zero metres away from the cache - only managed 1 metre!
Out and about with Itchyfeet2020 having an easy morning of caching in an area we have not visited much.
Kia ora rawa atu for the cache Bax001.

We had such a good time yesterday in and around Lower Hutt that we decided to go back over again today for another crack.
Our 19th cache of the day and after parking the Geo-mobile right by GZ the Geo-wife leapt out and grabbed the cache from the first place she looked before I even had a chance to get out. Oh well saves a bit of wear and tear on my shoes I suppose. Log sheet was very full but managed to find a tiny spot to leave my name and the date.

This reminds me of the cache I was trying to retrieve from a similar cache, except that was was connected, straight in and out, tftc Bax001
#2056. A coffee morning on High Street with a couple of old work colleagues gave me the chance to pick up a few previously un-sought Trads in the Hutt. This was the second, very easy, spotted it before leaving the geo-mobile. The hint is very helpful. No ducks or pukeko to be seen during my visit. awry.
Tftc Bax001.

Way that was a fast find! Saw the cache and knew what it was before I had even got off my bike! Didn't see any pooks today.
Many thanks for the cache. Interesting little dinosaur inside

We found it and left a little prize for the next treasure Hunter. A little something to take your worries away!
A nice quick find thanks.
Time for another trip to the North Island for Ms_KR and me. Wellington and beyond here we come. Today we cruised up to Ohakune to see a carrot.
Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches. Cheers.

Hmmm, well I know you can't beat Wellington on a good day, but today wasn't quite one of those. It had been threatening to rain for most of the day, but a friend and I decided we still fancied getting a bit of fresh air. We managed to get about an hour of caching in before we decided we had earned a well deserved coffee break at the nearby garden centre 
This was a quick park n grab. The hide is a good idea, but it is becoming a little loose and doesn't work quite as well as perhaps it once did when created. But no issues otherwise with this cache, and after adding our names to the logsheet the cache was replaced ready for the next seeker. Thank you for placing, and maintaining, this cache.

Out on a sunny Saturday with TharntheHalken. A very pleasant spot and a quick find. All good in cache, tftc!
Quick easy find in the fading light. Loylts of lovely evening birdsong. Signed log and replaced where found. TFTC.
Familiar spot as I used to have a cache in this park myself. The area is looking much tidier these days and nice to come back to it.
A quick find. No muggles watching from nearby as far as I could tell but even if there had been, as long as they didn't see the grab and return all they would probably notice would be an old guy "taking his pills"
I had hoped to do all of your caches around here today but some complications at a different cache elsewhere delayed me getting to the area so this was the last one I had time for today. I'll be back!

I forgot to mention that there was a cache guardian sitting just above it, a tiny ladybird.
Nice to have a pleasant beetle encounter at a cache for once.
I considered adding a photo but it wasn't really practicable to do so without a spoiler for the cache.

A quick easy find of a nice cache, although it really needs something to hold it in place more firmly. TFTC
How lovely! When I was a kid we used to pick blackberries around here. What a transformation! May thanks
One of six caches we located in Lower Hutt today, mostly near the Waiwhetu Stream. We’d tried to walk to this one from the south but didn’t manage to make it all the way. Landed up driving around by road. A very quick find. #3611. TFTC.
Found with Ricky_Reindersnz on a beautiful sunny Sunday avo. Had to take the long way around because the footbridge was still out of use... good way to get my steps in . TFTC.
. TFTC.Mum is helping me log all my caches that I haven't logged yet.Found with Mum (LL113) and Dad (GNARwhal).
QEF. Cache was hanging out of its hiding spot a little. We secured it nice and tight after signing the log. TFTC
First find for Arianna and fourth for Sosefo. Mo’ui found it for reals. Great hide TFTC
I planned to visit the garden centre which was not too far away, and as always, I had a look on my phone to see what caches there might be within a reasonable distance. Good, I thought, there is this one. Talla64 grabbed it within seconds of arriving. Nice one Bax001. TFTC.
Out and about with Flowerydaze looking for 7 wonders of the world. This one was not one of them. Parked not far away and walked the rest of the way. QEF for this one, thanks for the cache Bax001.
