I am 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 sara.andrew21This 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.RegardsTheCoddiwompler

Beautiful hike..I didnt find the cache unfortunately, Iam wondering if it is still there....

Was unlucky today during our hunt, searched for a while

Might need updating

No luck here for me today. Will have to have another go when I come to the East coast next

Found, although is damaged. Maybe Found by someone whom wasn't Geocaching. Have rehid it

Great find

Temp replacement cache in place. Thanks Taybee

EOh wow this sculpture is awesome. Thankfully no one about so was able to spend heaps of time searching all central colums from ground to head height with no success. So arranged a replacement black mint time with temp RITR log to keep this one going. Cheers.

Day 14, Wednesday 2 February - Gisborne - Tolaga Bay - Anaura Bay - Omanuka Bay - then the back road from Togaga Bay to Gisborne on a TMGT hunt for the day. Stopping off at Grays Bush on our way back to Zara. Come on Lenny and Toby lets get moving!

Zara, Toby, Lenny and I are on our North Island expidition for a couple of weeks. Got The Seagnoid along for the first 4 days, heading to the Auckland Mega. PWGTs and TMGTs are on the radar for this trip. Lots of driving on gravel roads and visited lots of amazing places on our 6000km road trip snagging 200+ caches along the way. Visiting Cape Reinga, Bay of Islands, Gisborne and White Rock along our journey.The highlight cache for the trip was GC815zh Journey to Pandora (night cache in Ack) Another awesome trip. Thanks to all CO's.

Cache appears to be missing. Will check and replace asap

Spent a loooong time searching for this cache, on both the trip up and down. But no luck.

Beautiful spot but so luck for us today

Had a bit of a look, but no joy. Still found a few others though and great walk too

Spent ages at GZ. No luck for me. But thanks anyway.

Found the cache and took it to the nearby picnic table to sign the log. Meanwhile some muggles turned up and were examining the sculpture so I decided to return the cache after we had had our lunch. Only I forgot as I had popped the cache in my bag in case it blew away (it was quite breezy)! So the cache had a trip to Cook’s Cove with us. Lucky I remembered about it and didn’t bring it back with us to Wellington! We returned it to its location on the way back from the cove. TFTC

Found it thanks to the logo on the lid. No pen so I’ve posted a picture. Nice cache

We are on a big 2 week caravan holiday in the North Island.... lots of driving so far. This is the 2nd campground for nights 5-8. Today I am wandering up this track right beside the campground and have a friends 14year old daughter keeping me company and helping me cache. Managed to find, sign and replace without the muggles taking photos up here.
Very nice views!! TFTC sara.andrew21

Lots of muggles today, but eventually found a period with no one around. Took a bit of searching to find.

Thanks for the cache.

This is the time of year to escape Gisborne when the crowds turn up for R&V. Heading up the coast and happy to detour for a short walk. Great views and sculpture at GZ. GPS at bit out but following the clue we soon had the log signed. Thanks. A favourite from us.

Found it. My 1st, 2nd to find...if that makes sense. Great view. I used the clue and nothing else. Not too hard. GPS is a bit out be you know where it will be.

Got a notification for this one and decided I would see if I could find it first. So headed on ️ to Tolaga from my home in Rua dropping off my moko in Toko I met a young man Adam at the parking area. From Whangarei who was travelling around on his British motorcycle. We hiked up the hill to get her. While he went on to the lookout I did my thing. Looking. When Adam returned I introduced him to geocaching. As he didn’t know what he was really looking for and wanted to carry on his travel we went to the car said our goodbyes. I got my mirror and headed back. This time wella found it. TFTC awesome day warm as, Really nice to get FTF,
Cheers FS TN LN
