We stopped at Jacks Point today on our way southwards, the intention being to have a good walk, to enjoy great views of the lake and to find 2 or 3 caches. We succeeded on the first two counts but managed to pick up just one cache. The other two were DNFs. I searched in what seemed the obvious place for this one to be hidden but it wasnt there. I also looked in almost every nearby hiding spot! Maybe it eluded me or maybe it isnt there. Ill be checking this one again in due course to see if anyone has found it. Im reasonably convinced its not there but I could well be wrong! Anyway there were certainly nice views from this spot!

We are on our long-awaited journey around the world in 99 days. Second try after canceling in 2020.
Our third stop after Los Angeles and Hawaii is New Zealand.

This time was of course used to find some geocaches here.
Today we were searching for a little hike around Queenstown and we found the Jack’s Point Trail.
While that Trail we were searching for the Traditional **Breathtaking Views in Jacks Point | Otago**

Thank to the Hints and the good coordinates the little box was found quickly!
After signing the logbook there is a new smile on our geocaching map!

At least we would like to take this opportunity to thank TeamCacheventures for creating and maintaining this Traditional.

Greetings from Nuermberg/Germany

It certainly is a wonderful view from GZ & a lovely place to sit & enjoy a bit of peace while taking in the surrounding beauty. We looked under quite a few places before discovering the cache. A lovely neat & well maintained one. Thanks for placing this one.

Bought a Bee Card, then $2 on the bus from Queenstown with the bike. Now biking back to Queenstown finding caches along the way. Quick find for the cache after the mission of pushing the bikes up the hill from Jacks Point. TFTC

Not my first time up this hill but having replaced the damaged cardboard cave cache years ago - the cave still gets missed when new caches get published at the Point. Somehow the extra terrain is a bit daunting for the park'n'grabbers unless you happen to walk the loop from the golf club or cycle from Kelvin Heights. Neither of which I have done given the short time traveling through QTown on caching business. Stopping at this spot to gather breath and drinks break, the micro was an easy find left well hidden by the last finder. The unlogged names in the logslip were the cache owners' buddies joining him on the walk up and placing this cache. I continued back up to the trig to get the FTF up there on another site and was surprised to see the red carpet had been laid out aka a comfy soft wrap over the barbed wire fence and wee stile to gain the real summit. Thanks for placing these caches up here and many more to come. Jack's cave is no longer lonely for those who leave the carpark. A noice place to have a cache Tob,

Found but not where we expected. It was 4m off the coordinates. Was in an illogical out in the open place so we put it back in the rightful place.

I was in QT for a day trip from Cromwell, picked up a few caches in town then thought I'd head out to this and the cave. A km from car park sounds easy. Not so, glad I carried water with me as the sun was out. Steep path up and over the hill in places, winding> so not just a km. A few rests on the way up though pup sprinted up and down a few times waiting for me to catch up hehe. Views back to the Remarkables amazing (the pic taken looks unreal) Met a fella who didn't survive, sat at the lookout to admire the panorama of the lake. Cache was out in the open, signed and tucked back in a bit.Interesting log by a couple which was mentioned on a previous log. fave for the view and that I made it! tftc

Not sure if we are the FTF. There are two names on the sheet but not dated and doesn’t appear to be a geocaching name.
Headed up on this walk with EK.Spygirl and enjoyed the walk up and amazing views the whole way.

This one gets a favourite point from us for the thrill of the FTF hunt and for the amazing location and views.

Thanks for bringing us here and TFTC
