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 TeamCacheventuresThis 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
This is a lovely trail but it all needs checking. Event the containers that are still there could do with new logbooks etc - theyre full of old receipts etc. This one is gone I would think. We also acknowledge the traditional custodians of New Zealand / Aoteroa, as we geocache throughout their land while on holiday.Thanks for showing us this place, & for placing and maintaining this cache. The is our playground
If it was as exposed as #11 it probably got muggled.we searched the obvious places but nothing turned up
My husband and I are on holidays from Brisbane Australia for 2 weeks travel around the south Island. Today sadly was our last day . I hired a bike to ride around this beautiful lake and find some caches. I had a great time cycling and finding caches and enjoying the view. Sadly this was a DNF for me but hope its just cache blindness

On another morning I was again roaming around in Qtown to while away time. I got me a Beam to carry me greater distances and be back for breakfast.2nd stop was #10. Lots of places to hide a cache. Even after reading the hint I was looking longer than expected. But in the end I could locate the box as per hint. 2 numbers for the bonus were in the box. Thx for hiding.

We were staying on the Frankton Road and today we decided to park the geomotor close to #10 and walk as far as #2 and then back to the car. Another one which is not wheelchair friendly, nice big stump. TFTC
3rd find of the day in the series. Easy enough, given the name. Hid it well. TFTC TNLN SL
Took a while but found the right spot eventually. Some mega trees around here, amongst the construction chatter and hum. Lovely beach too.
A sneaky little hide. Cheers

Two years ago i did not find this cache when i went cycling along the Frankton Arm Trail , but this time with our trip to Queenstown and Frankton area , for skiing again , i walked up to this cache from the Queenstown end this time and did a more thorough search and at a different level this time , and so i was rewarded with the cache after not a very long search , so i was very pleased . i So now it is good to change the blue face to a happy smiley yellow face . Thank you for this cache . I took nothing and i left nothing . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
It had us stumped for a while as our GPS was bouncing around. Good hide and good find. TFTC
Taking my bike from the camp site to town in the darkness of the evening. Was working on the camp site all day and need to get out now!
Searched for a little while in all possible hiding spots around here, then found it beautifully tucked away, tftc!

The third times to visit Queenstown. Surprised to see new GCs along the frankton trail. It was a quick found. TFTC
I had read while looking that there wasn’t a pen for the log so I left a pen for everyone to use!
Beautiful day to walk along the lake finding caches. Greetings from Kentucky USA.
Found it today with team VStaab on a very successful jaunt along the Franklin trail to play disc golf in Queenstown Garden. Spotted quickly by one of my teammates (the names sure do help!). TFTH!
Tftc. Last grabs before the airport. Sorry no pen hope photo log is ok. Love this town but back to SA soon.
Day 5 on our holiday in New Zealand. Today we explored Queenstown, and the surrounding area. We also visited this traditional cache, found it, and signed the logbook.
