The entire cache has been destroyed sadly, such a shame, took some time to create this one.

Easy

Richardson found it

Clever little hide. TFTC

Found after an evening orienteering. Looks like a cool cache, but log book and cache were separate to each other.

Looks like this one needs maintenance. The cache is broken, tried to put back together, but to no avail.

We found the log but not where it was suppose to be and nothing else.

Hahar cool as imported...TFTC with Snaippy and mighty Duxz

Another awesome find

mean pretty cool thanks

Find number 7813. On a day trip with eyespyben and ABCDF4 to cache in both Rotorua and Tauranga. Heading out of town and came up here to grab a couple of caches before going over the hill again. After reading the hint I spotted something that caught my eye. Yeah Nah. Not the cache but soon spotted the actual hide. Thank you for the placement.

Out bright and early before the heat of the day with KGD and EyespyBen
To get our first cache for the 2022 and points for Reach the Peck
Nice wee walk KGD was on to this one
Nice easy find

Out with ABCDF4 and KGD for the day to tidy a few caches in the bay, to get some points for the peak, neat we hide. TFTC.

All fixed and ready to be found

Needs a new log book

Very full of water so will likely need replacing. Pencil could not work. Nice spot however.

Nice. Thought we were going to have to get wet feet. Stayed dry

found it was easy

That was a cool find! I love the craftsmanship that has gone into this cache. Thank you for your efforts! Favourite from me.

Flogged find number 100 yipee, such a cool cache totally awesome.
Thank you

We found some coconut pieces among the trees.. how bizarre! And then what looked like a whole coconut!! Until we lifted it up and realised something was inside!

Le-roy, Jessica and Logan

P.S. “Logan found the treasure” -Logan (6yrs)

Cool Find The Fabulous Five.

GPS had me going all over the place. Read the hint wrong but discovered it anyway. Stepped into mud when in the wrong place. Fav point for the cache container. Tftc

Very crafty, had fun on a walk with the fam

From foreign shores...pretty easy find

Thanks, cool camo!

Love it!

Cool

such a good one map was off but still good

Very imported

Just went for a look. Cache is still there and waiting to be found.

Looked for ages, didn’t find it

We looked for long time. We found a destroyed tropical fruit but no cache

I found it (TFTC)

Found it with my family (TFTC)

Man must I say this is one of the best finds ever, have been doing geocaching in Australia but this one here in tauranga was very clever and cool . Worth getting my feet dirty when they didn't need to be haha. Awesome

Found by Maskell kids

Very cool, Mr2 worked it out! Team effort to find

Fun one for the kids

Really enjoyed finding this - a very cool idea for a cache container. All in good order.

Nice day to get out & about for a bit.The hint had me pondering until i got to GZ & then aha so subtle & cool.10 out 10 for the effort you have put into this cache,thankyou very much.

I have 1 fav left,it's yours

Making the best of a lovely sunny winters day for a bike cruise around the countryside for some smilies. And what a great day it was with some very inventive caches to enjoy! Cache is all good. TFTC

After ringing Mrs and yelling down the phone " we got our first FTF!" , we thought we would scoot around the corner and hit this one too. Once again keeping an eye out for other cachers, we scrambled into GZ and started hunting around... GOTCHA. Another clever cache thanks.

Imported for sure. They don't grow here.

Took Trabant travel bug.

Thanks Grifter

Added Trabant trackable to cache. Hopefully will go on many more adventures around NZ and the world.

Another random place to explore. Definitely out of place, glad no one was passing and wondering what we were up to! Cheers Grifter13

I had a bit of free time today so I decided to whip out and grab a few caches.

This one was on the list and a short walk from the car. Cache found quickly and in good condition thanks to accurate coords and a straight forward placement. Cheers grifter13 & TFTC

On an early afternoon jaunt with brother and the dog... Our intention was to head west and attempt the new Adventure at Omokoroa.

With a few caches squared away, it was time to cut a track homeward. This hide was one more for the road... In the dark, everything looks out of place. We stumbled on some red herrings and sent out an SOS message to our help-desk. Before the replies rolled in, we found what we were looking for. Thanks grifter13 and TFtC.

Nice to be back in the North Island after six weeks away completing the pwgt series. Many new caches whilst I was away. Nice to have new ones close to home. Yes definitely out of place here. A nice effort so a Fp from me. Note: found this without its lid on. Tried to put back with it on.

well do one like this sometime ago.
spotted from a few meters .
hopefully we will see more of these caches.

The gps isn’t quite correct. Dont go in swampy area lol

Nice to clear a dot day! We found this one nestled in its resting place, but it was opened and the contents weren't sitting quite right. We tried to put it back together as best we could - great camo, though! TFTC

Cool find

**13,816**
A super quick find before continuing on to the Waikato for a family get-together. TFTC

My GPS initially had me heading for the swamp in sandals. Looked at the attributes and decided to ignore the GPS and use my geosenses - which yielded me the cache in less than a minute. I'm not shy in saying "Fair play" - definitely out of place. TFTC.

Published

FTF. That was a clever way to hide it ??????. And I thank you for this hide ???

Actually now that I am looking at this I think I am the 3rd to found ????????????????

It's been a busy day of {FTF} finds. After haring out to Apata this alert came through. I thought we should give it ago and our young grandson was also keen. I forgot about the road works and traffic jams and it seemed an age before we arrived close by. We all conspicuously headed to gz. At first nothing seemed out of the ordinary. Young Em headed in and shrieked as a large cobweb enclosed him. But that was the trigger to spot something else not quite right. Nothing there but close by was the real one. Great camo. Thanks for bringing us here Grifter13.

We had our young Grandie with us teaching him the finer skills of geocaching..it’s also good too have him as he’s a great asset for the tight spots ..arrived at GZ and it’s all quiet after a short search the well blended in camo was spotted ...yippee a nice clean log sheet { FTF} after completing the required formalities and returning to my transport I did notice a couple of other samples laying around...must have been a party here Thanks Grifter13 for the tidy piece of handy work and cache

Keep trying Jesseschmidt. I thought you had this one
