Wow what a view to have found this cache at thank you for putting this one here and showing us how beautiful this place is , found with bex09 and we are leaving some swag .
Just revisiting this lovely walk & saw the cache still there, so posting a note
Found - Mrs McMike2012 & I now live full-time in our caravan & travel the country visiting places we want to visit & doing the things that we want to do we had been staying near Okaihau in Northland we decided to go for a drive to the Puketi Forest Park, walk some tracks & see what we could find love seeing the mighty Kauri Trees up this close, quite magnificent & awe-inspiring makes you feel quite insignificant really this ending up being an easy find, log signed & cache easily replaced pleased to add another 'smiley face' to the tally TFTC ... TN:LN:SL ... #4,924 for us!
Clever hide, and an amazingly peaceful spot. Well worth the trip. Thanks so much.
Find #633Found while walking Te Araroa - new Zealands long pathway from Cape Reinga to Bluff. Thank you to all the cache owners who place and maintain these caches, and thank you to all the people who help me and others on the wayWhat a beautiful spot. Found quickly and replaced as found, clever cache. I hope this walk can remain open and not be closed because of the dieback. Favourite point for the massive trees and magical spot
A great walk after a nice bike ride. We are so impressed by the beautifully named trees. Great cache. Fave point because we don't have to disturb any seedlings to find it. Cache is all good. TFTC
What amazing tree's there are around here.
I was able to enjoy the peace and beauty of the bush without anyone else around today.
It was too wet to sit down today, but I loved the hide. It would be possible to grab it while others were here without them being any the wiser. Just be careful not to drop it.

Holidaying in the Far North. Escaping the sun and heat by going for a walk in Puketi Forest. Great location and enjoyable walk to get here checking out the different names of trees along the way. Not sure we will be able to identify too many of the different species again in the future but we will try. Favourite point given for the location. I imagine we will be back again some day. TFTC
After a successful FTF mission on the new NOBO trail, just had to make sure to do these other caches around the DOC campground area.
This one was a short walk down the local bush trail, just manageable after 21km in the heat. Once at GZ, the cache was a quick find. Some beautiful kauris here. TFTC

A great little space in the forest to sit and contemplate the world. Only a panoramic picture captures those trees in all their glory. As the previous finder was at the placement of this cache I am going to claim First to Find [FTF] as the first independent finder. TFTC.
