great find! might need to be replaced as the plastic is breaking.

We were in the area as matagouri was looking for a puzzle cache to fill a dot day on his grid, but as I didn't need one today, I opted for this trad instead. Bice and quiet around here when I was here, so no issue's finding the cache. Thanks for putting it here

Set out today for a goal of 1000 caches. Headed off from Rotorua detouring around seeing where we end up, appreciate the cache!

On a mission with Reschedule to top off an epic caching weekend by both hitting the 1000 cache mark. At the same time we took the opportunity to knock out some caches in the Waikato.I love the simplicity of the name it certainly was a barrier.

Found, easyyyy

Out for a weekend adventure with team SEAC. TFTC

Had seen a post in the Geocaching NZ Facebook page regarding a field Puzzle Cache (Technology Pioneers GC1PRKD) that was due to be archived in Hamilton. Mr NZT did some preparatory work and found there were 2 other similar type caches by the same CO. Well that sounded like an excuse for Team SEAC to take short trip from Auckland to Hamilton for lunch.We all meet up in Papakura and headed south. Just before Bombay the message went out that NurseDr Geowagon had developed issues. We agreed to all meet here and re-access. The geowagon wasn't going to make the distance. NurseDr jumped in with us and Mr NurseDr had to now Nurse the Geowagon home.Well the idea of JUST doing 3 caches and then lunch and heading home was NEVER going to be acceptable.... soooooo.....A Quick easy find and good parking in the dead end road.TFTC

We returned home yesterday after a day out geocaching in the Waikino/Paeroa to a message from Mr NZT about a handful of mystery caches in Hamilton he was trying to solve and head down to retrieve before they are archived. We decided to join him, along with LiverKiwi, and NurseDr.A nice quick find here

Yesterday, the idea was hatched to grab three particularly good caches in Hamilton as one of them, possibly all three, will be archived at the end of July. As they were puzzle caches, the Team SEAC puzzlers got on the case and started to solve these puzzles. With co-ordinates in hand, the plan to hit Hamilton today to grab these three caches, and possibly a few others, was hatched and co-ordinated.This cache and another nearby cache were soon on our list of targets as they were not far from where we were solving a field puzzle. So a little detour was planned to come over here and grab these two. Finding a nice place to park, we headed towards this cache first. A little bit of searching ensued and soon enough the cache was found. The log was signed Team SEAC to preserve log space.TFTC

My mate Ben found it

Thanks!

Found this one on my way out to Mystery Creek this morning, a nice easy one here between ducking muggles. TFTC!

Headed out to try and grab a couple of caches tonight and this was the one and only find thanks to a DNF down the road. Was a nice easy find and it was nice to see a little bit of the new suburb. Tftc

After securing the nearby roundabout cache, I made my way up to also quickly grab this cache. Seems the Camo isn't too keen to stay attached to this one TFTC

Walked over to this one and quickly located it. A quiet spot with no one nearby other than moving vehicles at the roundabout but it will only get busier as the city expands out this way. TFTC

Nice easy PNG

Found with Spudge. TFTC

Last cache of the day then off to explore under the roundabout (unfortunately the other nearby cache is currently disabled), but it was fun to walk through anyway.

We had looked for this on a previous time in the dark so good to come back & not feel like naughty people. How did we miss this last time, quick find.

Had looked for this before when the road was blocked & saw it's open now & daylight so give it another go. Saw it straight away, how did we miss this last time. TFTC

Found it. Nice new suburban area being developed.

A quick grab

Snel gevonden

I as in the area collecting a Lab at the lake and decided to get some traditional ones at the same time. With the softball cache looking like it’s gone this was the first on our list.

Almost parked at GZ and soon had the cache in hand. Took us longer to open it than it did to find.

Everything in good condition and thanks for the hide

nice quick find
TFTC

A quick park n grab, although opening required some effort. All good, tftc!

Hard find like they all are lol

A nice quick park and grab after leaving the Celebrating Weekends event at the Hamilton Gardens. TFTC

Nice and easy early in the morning. TFTC

Quick find, TFTC!

Quick easy find.TFTC

Good hide thanks

All quiet up this end of the roundabout and an easy find

Another trip to Hamilton .
Grabbing few while in town

TFTC

I had itchy feet and a desire to Cache but I was also having car issues... Fortunately it was Fap'n'Gap to the rescue whisking me off to Hamilton on a mission to tidy up the few caches we have left to get there.

I'm very pleased I was able to convince Fap'n'Gap to ignore the road closure signage and drive directly up to the cache - that made this one a nice park and grab. Cheers nufrat & TFTC

Not a park and grab with no way to get through the barriers, but a pleasant stroll nonetheless. TFTC!

Found! Second time back now that the road workers are gone

Happy to change to a smiley face. Don't know how I missed it the first time

Quick grab on the way to the roundabout.

Having had such a nice, lazy, slow start to the day it was time to get out and find some caches. Staying nearby so this neighbourhood looked to be the best to go for...took a bit of a shortcut so getting here was interesting but thankfully not impossible and with a quick grab and sign I'm off on the trail of #2
TFTC!

This one took longer than it should have

Was a bit tricky...couldn't feel it at first... but then Jan put her head at just the right angle!
Success ..!
Thanks!

Couldn't find today.

Cache is where it should be so all good here

Quick cache, thank you. Previous log didn't seem to save, sorry if it doubles up. Hi vis would be useful for this one.

Out for a few caches this afternoon, and this was one of them. No problems here, TFTC

Quick stop and grab on a walk in the area
Had to wait for some builders to leave before i could get them, but once they left was real quiet
TFTC

A bit of a hiccup with totally wrong park, however, a bit of cross country solved that for a quick find. Tftc.

Tried this many times but the road barriers were up, this time they were down so we went for it, took long than expected to find, but got there in the end

found a good parking spot and soon had cache in hand
tftc

With an older brother, a dog, and a Gap (of Fap and Gap)... We're making hay while the sun is shining - and boy, the sun is definitely shining today!

Pulled into this newly formed road and parked alongside. A nice, straightforward find - Thanks nufrat and TFTC.

Tftc I’m glad I found this one before the homes were built

TFTC

I stopped on my way home for a little visit with the CO. Afterwards, I went over to get this cache. The title kinda give the cache location away. TFTC.

Loved the nearby Pukeko

As I walked towards this cache from the last one, another song poppef into my head - We're on the Road to Nowhere. It is a barrier and still very shiny. Not even any cobwebs to contend with as yet. TFTC.

Another new development...nicely hidden...TFTC

Find number 7220. Time is no barrier as it was about 11.30 pm when I signed the log. Thank you for the placement.

Last one for today, to easy even in the dark, TFTC

Early morning and no one about tftc

Heading back to base to drop the car off, I had some time up my sleeve so thought I'd grab these two caches. No problems spying this one. Be interesting to see what the area looks like when it's all complete, I'd imagine this would be a tricky find then with all the passing cars

TFTC, nufrat. #2348

Up early to plan a mission for new caches further afield. Nice new area to explore and an easy find. Of course I was in the general area late last night after work. TFTC and a [FTF]

Definitely not a park and grab at the moment as the road is blocked off. Took longer than it should have done. Found by feel not sight. Thanks for these 2 placements.

Easy easy find while out for a ride

Nice easy find
Happy New Year

No barrier to finding this and once signed I went back and resumed searching for the other new cache in the area.

Nice easy find

I was out geocaching with Barondriver, when I found this one. This was a good hide and I had fun finding it! Every thing was in good shape!! TNLN SL TFTMC # 8605.
