Happy New Zealand trip with geocaching.A pity were with muggle friends and cant visit as much as geocaches as we like. I appreciate all the caches we passed and visited.Thanks, BrownscacheDiversBCD, for the cache. Greetings from Taiwan.
On our way to hike in the shadow of Aoraki/Mt Cook and stopped at this gorgeous view. Noticed the cache and made quick work of it - well hidden with some tell-tale signs only geocachers would pick up on. TD99 made the find. TFTC
Wasnt sure if i would find this with 2x dnfs, but no problem. Needs a new logsheet tho, sorry i had no spare paper on me. [TFTC]
Tftc. Span85 hopefully learnt to listen about not chucking it or it would pop open
Such a good hide! I thought someone had taken it looks like nothing was there photo for proof as pen was lost
Cache Found on the way to Christchurch. What a marvellous view from here on the Pukaki Lake and Mount Cook with the clouds. Nice camouflage . I give it a favorite point . Thank you for the cache . Greetings from France.
Didnt find. A bit chilly this AM. Gave up with frozen finger and thistles/prickles stuck in my backside
We stopped here so I could get a photo gor the children at kindy. Thankfully the cloud cleard long enough to get some photos of the mighty maunga. It is so nice to be out of the bitterly cold wind. A nice easy find here in the obvious spot.Thanks for placing this cache and thank you for the smiley

Located while out bike riding again. This time out to Tekapo B powerstation from Pukaki.
We are currently on a eight week holiday which is mostly spent in New Zealand and Australia. However, the first three days were spent in Signapore as a nice break from an otherwise long flight. This yesterday morning we arrived in Christchurch and had a nice tour through the city. Today we are already leaving Christchurch. We are driving to Mount Cook. Since it is not a long drive we spent this morning in the beautiful botanic gardens. In the afternoon we are on our way to our destination. We make a stop every now and then to stretch our legs. Here we had a stop also. We simply could not restist this beautiful place. The cache was found without any problem. Thank you very much for this cache.
We arrived in Christchurch yesterday for our two-month trip through New Zealand and Australia. Today we travel to Mount Cook.When we stopped along the way there turned out to be a cache. This was quickly found.**BrownscacheDiversBCD**, thanks for the cache.
4-week family trip through NZ - Find #138!The first of many views of Mt. Cook today . The cache was a quick find thanks to the good coordinates.TFTC!
#4748SA: Samen met Arsil0012 op pad. ik was aanwezig via Whatsapp (dus virtueel). Op deze manier kon ik aanwijzingen geven en hebben we de cache kunnen vinden op deze fraaie lokatie. Bedankt voor deze cache vanuit Europa, Spanje, Benidorm. On the road together with Arsil0012. I attended via WhatsApp (so virtually). This way I could give directions and we were able to find the cache at this beautiful location. Thanks for this cache from Europe, Spain, Benidorm.
What a fun find, great cache container. Thank you and greetings from San Francisco
Huge amounts of folk around today so it was really nice that the cache was ticked away from the masses. Such a glorious view. Cache is all good. TFTC
Log to follow.On the road from Queenstown to Lake Tekapo. Quick find when we stopped here for the scenic views and some photos. Log signed and cache replaced as found. TFTC
Excellent location even though people around ,vno muggles at ground zero, thanks for placing and maintaining
Too many people on our first pass but fortunately most had moved on when we cycled back. Quick find, a bit rocky to start with but seen this before. Put new w/p paper in to keep it going for the next 40 hunters.tftc
On our adventure around the island. We are still amazed be the incredible scenery. A fun find, luckily no TP flowers blooming today. TFTC
Beautiful view on the way from Lake Tekapo to Te Anau on our visit from Aus. Travelling with Roomar_S. TFTC!
Good spot for the cache, away from the crowds. This side of the lake looked most peaceful and sunny! TFTC!!South Australia is the place be for GCA1DNA - MEGA - February 29th, 2024 in Adelaide! Hope to see you at The Great Leap Forward!
On our long journey from Germany to Australia / Tasmania / New Zealand / Dubai of a total of 3.5 months, we also crossed NZ from north to south and collected a few caches.This one was found quickly. TFTC
An early morning stop here, which is probably wise. Judging by the amount of car park spaces it looks like it gets very busy. We soon found the cache. Tricky to get to without being a victim of the thistles though. Thanks for placing.
Nice walk down towards the water. Nice area to walk the dog. Shame that there is lots of gorse around, as it was a hot day and both @NikkiPi95 and I were in jandals. Thanks
Dieser Cache konnte heute erfolgreich geloggt werden.Danke an den owner fr's legen und pflegen TFTC Schmerzbefreit
Found it with Xandixxx on a very windy and rainy day.Thank you for the nice Cache. Greetings from Bremen / Germany Millefolia
I left Lake Tekapo this morning continuing my journey southward on Te Araroa. As the next section follows the water canals along mostly private land camping is limited and as such can be a long arduous and exposed walk, one I am sure the CO is familiar with. We opted to hire a bike, and it felt weird to cover the distance from tekapo to pukaki so quickly. I identified a potential rest stop here with picnic tables, toilet facilities and of course a cache but did not re kon with the sheer volume of tourists I encountered upon arrival..Well, it's a quick little scurry to GZ, dodge the thistles (no white paper blooms seen thankfully) and made a quick find of this cache. Now back on the road, I fancy some salmon sashimi at the info centre at the bottom of the lake. Thanks to brownscachedivers for hiding a cache here, it is great to have a string of smiley's on the geo map showing my path along the TA through Aotearoa. Cheers!-- This log is trackable ! ---- Feel free to discover ---- Please mention, in which cache you've seen this code: ---- 3TABQX --
Stopped here for a snack whilst biking to Twizel from Braemar Rd. Lots of thistles threatening to make retrieval interesting but a telltale rock showed me I was in the right place. Many thanks, BrownscacheDiversBCD. #10145
what a shame we missed visiting with the CO yesterday as we were in the area. nice quick find today as I rushed along the road to cheer Mr ap on his bike ride. t4tc
I'm visiting New Zealand together with my family for the first time and is driving around this beautiful country. As we go along I manage to find a few caches TFTC. My find no. 8.194. The cache is dry and in good condition.
Quick find during a pitstop from Christchurch to Wanaka. Beautiful here, thanks for the hide!
A couple of South Australians Road trip through New Zealand, quick stop at Lake Pakaki and found this quite quickly. TFTC
Day 8: In the MacKenzie High Country Todays highlights were, of course, the star attractions of the region, Aoraki/Mount Cook and the Lakes of the region. We attempted the two tracks in the Aoraki/Mount Cook area - the Hooker Track and the Tasman Lake one in fine but very blustery conditions at times. Then, it was off to Lake Tekapo for the obligatory tourist shots before heading back to Twizel for the evening. Thanks for all the caches in the region, they made the hikes today all the more exciting! (End of the cut and paste bit)Heres the specific log for this cache:Final cache along the lake for me and I really hate the gorse that seems to have colonised parts of the GZ. Yikes, but at least we got there in the end and could sign here with one last view across the beautiful lake. TFTC!
Auf unserer heutigen Reise hier vorbei gekommen und den Cache ohne Probleme gefunden.
We were travelling from Lake Tepako to Mount Cook and stopped off here for the fabulous views and of course this cache.All clean here and no toilet flower flowers. TFTC
