Log it in (Palmerston North) Roslyn, North Island, New Zealand
By Gavgav2889 on 31-Jan-20. Waypoint GC8JKAV

I am regretfully archiving this cache since there's been no response from nor action by the cache owner within the time frame requested in a prior reviewer note.

Hi Gavgav2889

This geocache was brought to my attention as being in need of an owner maintenance visit and after my previous reviewer note, there has been no owner response. The cache owner needs to check on this cache ASAP and either replace it or archive it, after picking up any geo-litter. See the [maintenance section of the Geocache Listing Requirements/Guidelines](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#listingmaintenance).

I've added this cache to my watchlist, and I will check back in four weeks to be sure that the maintenance has been done. In the meantime, I have temporarily disabled this listing. When the maintenance is completed, the owner can enable the listing by clicking on the link below the cache name to return it to active status.

Whatever your intentions, please **post a note** here on the cache page (not email) to let us know that you are still active and maintaining the cache. If a month passes without seeing a response, then I'll assume that this listing should be archived.

Please note, that if a cache is archived due to lack of owner maintenance, the cache is unable to be unarchived.

Regards

DNF looks like cache has been removed

Found with JoeyGE0. I have now made my own account and am logging the caches I have found to keep my account up to date. This is a real account. I placed the cache back as found, TFTC thanks Gavgav2889 putting this Traditional cache out!

Online logged on 31/03/23
Likely found in 2021-2022


(Using Joeys account for fast logging)

This geocacher reported that the cache might be missing.

Up in the flat lands today to catch up with a four legged friend so thought we would grab a few caches along the way.
We also discovered a log with no log as mentioned by previous peeps. It did have one end nicely hollowed out though for something.
Might pay for the CO to take a look sometime please

Can't find it.

Found the tree log but no log to sign

We weren't too sure. But thank you

Coop

Under maintenance,wet log book etc

Found but log very wet yucki

Was in town to finish some of the adventure lab caches I had started so why not kill one bird with two stones (HK saying). Found a couple of logs but no cache and then spotted the container out in the open. I am not sure where it was supposed to be so I placed it in a nearby tree. TFTC.

Yay second one found! Have a cough lolly

Nice tidy camo
Soon found .signed and replaced as found All in good condition...thanks for the cache

Well, like others, I looked at the wrong side and inspected quite a bit. After that failed I peered in tge other side and saw a nicely camoed cache. Thanks for the placement Gavgav2889

Wow looks good

Looked on the wrong side to begin with,, but logged it once I looked on the correct side

was getting dark and couldn’t see very well so will come back another day

Needed a second cache find to meet the two'fer Twosday on the 22/2/22 and earn a special souvenir. This looked like a good option and so headed over to GZ on the way home from the Deuces Wild event (GC9M11R). Haven't been caching in a while but didn't take too long two spot something of interest and soon had the cache in hand. Signed the log and returned as found. TFTC.

On the hunt for Ad lab stages and painted cabinets, this one fell within my snakey route. Parked nearby and headed along the alley to GZ. I tried the wrong side initially and pulled at all sorts. Once my horizons were widened I spotted the cache and soon had my name added to the log.

A desire to get out and about after work today and also a souvenir chasing 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 cache (or two) were on the agenda. I ended up in Palmy for a few solved puzzles, a non-logged Multi DNF and a couple of others. Nice to be able to get out and about after work with a couple of hours of daylight available. Thanks to the COs for their caches.

In Palmy for the day, so great to get a few caches here. Started looking in the wrong place originally, but quickly found when looked in correct place. Cache def worth a favourite point here.

Persistence paid off. Just passing through so good to grab some caches. Tftc

Come to palmy for some general shopping and thoughte and the kids may as well head out for some caches. Took a bit for my eyes to find but how good.

I made a day trip up to Palmerston today to gain some altitude in the November stage of the "Reach the Peak" challenge. I've decided that with the current Level structure we are in to complete each climb as early in the month as possible. Took me a while to find, but we got there in the end. TFTC

Unfortunately couldn't find this one

Another nice quick one.

Dinner should be ready now

A clever cache & worth a FAV. Was with Crystal Fairy as we headed up to Palmerston North for a weekends caching. TFTC

Due to the postponement of the Auckland Mega, Buttels and the Crystal half decided to use the dates planned for the event to do some caching between Wellington and Palmy. Lovely spot for a cache. Nicely blended into the surroundings. Thanks for the cache

Out on a walk around the block and stop in on this on way past. Nicely hidden. Tftc.

This was our first find. Found 22/10/21

Very well disguised TFTC

Thanks

This was actually the first real caching outing for Talla64 and I since the most recent Covid lockdown was lifted, and the day was not the best. Very cold and windy. However we made a plan for PN and came up from Kapiti to find some caches. I'm pleased to say it was a quick find. Thanks for the cache, no-one arround today to witness our activities.

With Flowerydaze on a caching trip from Kapiti. This was on our list on a very cold and windy day. This was our first trip since lockdown and it was nice to be able to get out once more. Thanks for the cash Gavgav2889

Loved this one! thank you. Community garden was a nice find also on the way!

Choice camo. Cheers mate.

Back home for the weekend, catching up with some of my favourite people in prep for a big geotrip tomorrow. But first I still need today's cache. So checked out the map and decided on this one - nice and close. The Etherkids wanted to come along, so they all joined in on the search.
Quite impressed with the hide here - well done on the colour match!

No problem here. Thanks.

Moved to Palmy for a few months. Decided this was the ideal time to get a streak going. Now Day 48. Took a walk after work to find this cache. Nice camouflage. Was a cold sunny afternoon with brief rain. I guess that’s the recipe for a rainbow. Thanks for the smiley.

TFTC! Love it!

Super creative! Love it

????

Thanks for the cache,
Nice and tidy grab on the way through

Such a good hiding spot! Loved the camo paint. Tftc ️

Nice quick find during my lunch break. Tftc

Headed to GZ where I spent a wee bit of time checking out the area, some perhaps, decoy logs.

Then relying on what my GPSr was showing I had a good look and found something not quite right.

Cache was found, log signed and left as found.

Great camo Gavgav2889.

#12,203. A short walk in Roslyn, Palmerston North. Fortunately, GZ was all quiet at the time of our visit. Relatively quick find. Great hide. The cache was in good condition, all nice and dry inside. Took nothing, left nothing, signed log.

Thanks for the placement, and for bringing us to this site, and …

Excellent hide. This was a good one to find while in the area. Thank you for the cache

The hint was perfect. Great camo, that almost had us fooled. Very nicely done.

A fave point added for a great cache hide. Many thanks for the cache

Very cool tyftc

A nice quick find thanks. Almost gave up but then had a brainwave, and there it was.

Ms_KR and I are on our annual pilgrimage to Auckland for our family Christmas. Today are cruising around Palmerston North, with fine sunny weather in conrast to last nights rain. Please excuse the generic logs, there have been a few finds and they get muddled up sometimes.

Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches. Cheers.

On a over night trip from Hastings. A quick stop in here for this cache. Quickly spotted. A nice camo. Fav point for the effort.
Thanks for placing the cache Gavgav2889.
Find number 4513.
Log signed b&p.

I was in Palmy running errands and naturally decided to grab a few caches while I was out.
I finished the day with this little group of three caches and walks through the little neighborhood parks.
At GZ I found the cache after a fairly brief search in the third place I looked.
This caches camo is clever enough to get an FP from me.

Even though the cache was quickly spotted I really enjoyed the clever camo job, nicely done. All quiet at GZ - just the way I Iike it!

Could not locate. Might not be here anymore.

Good hide, took us a couple of minutes haha

Very wet. Took the little bear and left a coin

A little wet and drizzly this morning but I had some spare time to come and explore the area.

I had had a quick look for this cache back in March just before we went into lockdown, and had been in a rush so hadn't logged a DNF as I didn't feel like I had a proper search at the time.

This evening I found myself in Palmy visiting friends and it was a dot day so thought I'd have a better look this time. It still took me a few minutes to spot the nicely hidden cache, but was happy to add my name to the log.

Thanks for placing this cache, and a FP from me for the good hide.

Thanks for this cache, great to visit another wee open space. Superb cache, gets a favourite from us.

Had enough time between appointments on this side of town to find this one. Neatly hidden with good coordinates, thanks Gavgav.

It's a very still morning, ideal for a bit of caching. A nice hide. Thanks

Early morning bike to find some caches. Thanks Gavgav2889 for the cache.

Today's not a dot-day, but it's the next best thing - a souvenir day!

Happy Palindrome Day

On our way back from attending the special palindromic event in Feilding this afternoon, GC8HYVZ "Oh Two - Oh Two - Two Oh Two Oh", we had to pass quite close to this new cache, so naturally we stopped here.
There was no one about on this windswept late afternoon and we were able to go quickly to the GZ area. The GPS was a little unsettled at first, but we soon zeroed in on the correct GZ. The title was certainly helpful and the nicely made cache soon located. We took care to return it as asked, and the reason is clear. We'll give a fav for the container - it's always good to see creativity. TFTC

Neat container that blends in nicely

Well crafted cache! Tftc.

I'm checking my email after dinner while procrastinating from chores, and notice a new cache has just been published! Well, not *just* published... it was a bit over an hour ago but the FtF hasn't been logged yet so I'm off!

I arrived at the walkway entrance and headed towards where the needle was pointing and found the first decoy. I searched on the other side and found the second decoy, but then saw the real host.
Is it a blank logbook? No! Not by a long shot! the FtF was claimed 1hr 11min ago, only 11min after publication!
You've got to be quick to beat Haydn.Seek!

Oh well, I'll save this for a dot-day later in the year

I spotted this soon after it was published,went to investigate as soon as possible..alas! Was beaten to it!Wrote the log at 2055 hrs,and then re-concealed carefully.A nicely concealed cache,thanks!

Sorry guys! I thought i had logged it when i found it while on my cell phone but obviously i still did not do it right! Yes i just happened to look at my phone look away and talk and when i looked back there was this new cache and only 1.2 km away! so said to daughter 'want to come with me and see if we can be FTF " so off we set, no other cachers in sight! WOW so it was a {FTF} It is so long since i had a real one like this! a great thrill and even my daughter was quite excited about it! A lovely clean slate to write upon. and a well constructed cache so well done gavgav and worthy of a Fav point from me . Hopefully a new cacher who may join our ranks in our manawatu geocaching page on facebook. and come and meet some of us at the various events we have. Great to have you:)
