Nice view. Couldn't find and felt a bit weird rummaging around so close to somebodys property
Caching in the north with Team Welsh today. After our epic 5/5 find we are targetting some of the less strenuous caches on such a hot day. Pulled off the road as much as we could with 2 cars parked here, and admired the Beaut View of Toot. Stunning today with the ocean so blue. Thanks for the cache placement here.
We were very keen to get some drivebys as it was very hot and we just weren't up for a walk. The views from here are stunning and I could even spot the old family bach from up high. Great camo and outlook. Easy fav point here
Checked today whilst passing. Cache is still there in original location. Hint updated slightly
This took quite a while but together we found it. Construction work going on here so luckily no one on the Saturday. Tftc
Had time for a few more before breakfast so headed for 3 up this side road. Nice and easy find here, though the work on the nearby residence is fairly advanced so a stealthy dash down the bank in the long grass and back for the find. All good and replaced as found.
A few more pre-xmas days up in Northland visiting my son and his family were a few days well spent. We stayed in the works bach at Ngunguru yet again and had a nice time, as usual. There was a very small amount of time for caching, nothing like previous visits, and enough time for a few finds. Glad to see some new ones near the bach from 0B80B8 and managed a pre-breakfast rain one day. Thanks to all COs as always.

With the excellent hint it did not take me to long to find the cache.
Wow like the camo on this one.
Lovely views and lots of building activator.
Thanjs for the hide

Back up home in Northland for a few days, so I took a drive out around the Tutukaka Coast to check on my caches and find some of the newer caches out this way. Clambered down the bank to this one and spotted the cache from about half way down. Nice hide and nice view! TFTC!
Stopped by this morning after a successful FTF jaunt, to replace the lost lid on this cache. All good now.
Got hammered by rain so abandoned the search only to return with sunshine. Tricky find. Over thought this Cache.
I dropped my son off for his early Monday morning physics lesson at Boys High. I wasn't starting work until 9am so figured I'd have half an hour to travel out here, half and hour messing around which would be plenty. Then half an hour heading back to work. Well I ended up pushed for time to get back to work. There was a very slow driver in front of me and no places to pass. On the way back I was a few cars behind an ambulance so also quite a slow trip.
To make matters worse I ended up dropping the lid to the cache. I spent a while hunting but it was futile in the long kikuyu. I'll be back out soon as I need more caches for my streak. I'll stop by with a magnet and hope I can locate it. Very sorry about that.
I hardly got a chance to admire the view and the dogs down the drive started barking. They could obviously hear or smell me. Thanks for the hide that starts me on Signals labyrinth

Enjoying exploring somewhere new!
Very exciting 4 days ahead of me.

[FTF] 12.40pm Was out this way with kids when these caches popped up. Fortunately we were up high and didn't have to worry about tsunami or surge threats. Bit of an unusual day today with the constant treat of a Tsunami over us. These caches also up high so made the decision to head over. Within 20min of them popping up we got to the first cache. At GZ searched for the obvious but could not see anything. Then knowing the C/O widened our search. Cache was located after a bit of a search. Yes it is a P&G but we as usual over thought it. Signed and replaced. TFTC. Not so beaut view of Toot - several vessels being salvaged from the ocean floor while we searched.
