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 Sir Belac

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

While visiting Christchurch for the long weekend I had some time to go out and find a few caches. The container was quite exposed so I replaced it and tried to cover it a bit better. TFTC, Biggles.

#20415. We were keen to make four finds today, and had to come over to this side of town to meet up with family, and decided the four red zone caches would fit the bill nicely. The weather was a bit drizzly, but we ended up staying pretty dry. This was the first find of our walk, and the only one of the four I found. TFTC.
 
07-Nov-21
There had been some unexpected drizzle early this morning, so we brought rain jackets with us on our little caching foray in the red zone. Just as well, as the drizzle restarted as we neared where we parked the car.
It didn't come to much, but the longish grass was rather damp underfoot, so we made sure we kept to any paved areas as long as possible. This was the first of four cache finds, and a quick find for StreetWalkerNZ. TFTC.

In the area for a few days, so to fill in a bit of time we had a wander around the red zone, this is one of the caches we enjoyed finding

Finally came back to quickly find this cache. Didn’t do it on Christmas Day when I found all the others in the area as people in a nearby house were having a BBQ

8437. Had some spare time today after watching my grand nephew play water polo for Waikato at QEII. Spent under an hour walking under 2km around an area I know well since Iris used to teach at nearby Freeville Scnool. Found all eight caches in the red zone (what happened to 07?). They were all straight forward and easy finds. Started at #1 and did them in numerical order. Cold and frosty with also plenty of surface water and/or ice. This one was quick and easy and it was a very short walk back to the car. Thanks for this short series, and the exercise. Rodney.

Second time lucky. Nice quick find.

Second cash with family adventure

Day 4 of three weeks winter motorhoming in the upper half of the South Island. Staying in Christchurch for a few days before heading northwards again. Did a ride around this red zone area today and picked up 9 caches. Large amounts of water lying around, especially on streets which are now ‘derelict’. Not too difficult to spot this hide! #4059. TFTC.
