It's that crazy time of year where you blink and suddenly everything is happening! Blink! (Summer starts) Blink! (work finishes for the year) Blink! (you're driving across the country to spend xmas with a friend)...At least this year I'm breaking the driving up just a little Last night I spent the evening in Palmy, so that today I would be able to take a leisurely drive to Auckland, at a pace that would allow me to collect a few caches along the way that have been placed since I last did this drive.I've already found 3 other caches of this series so far, all nearer to my home than this one. But in those 3 cases, I'm still missing a single month so I've not been able to claim any of the finds yet. At least I knew I could claim all of today's finds immediately!The road was pretty busy today as one might expect, and there was a fairly visible presence from our boys in blue. In fact as I pulled over to stop near GZ, some bloke in a BMW was being given a ticket only about 200m away. No issues making the find here, and I had soon added my name to the logsheet.Thanks for setting it up, and merry xmas to you and yours.Congratulations!

I'm back in New Zealand for the first time in four and a half years to visit family and catch up with friends. Have been down in the manawatu for the past few days to do a few things but its time to head north again, but there's time for a couple of caches as i drive north. A quick find here.Pushn_Eastfulfils challenge*That Was the Year 2008 (Mini Jasmer Challenge) (GC9N3GH), according tohttps://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC9N3GH/66795

We are continuing with these challenge caches on our way further north today. This was our first for the day, and another that we qualify for. Mr nzk had driven the big rig on ahead, leaving Mrs to make the stops (much easier when driving a smaller vehicle). After a conversation with a young couple who had stopped to walk their dog and take photos of the view, she also took a few pics until they drove away and she was able to locate the cache. She admitted to some anxiety about having to dig in the snow for it, so was relieved that wasn’t necessary. All good here, thanks Phronimos.

#13,344. My last in this series today. Will hopefully find time to stop and get the rest on the way south later in August. Lots of snow about today and crunched my way through it wondering if the cache would be buried. But it wasn't. Soon had my name in the logsheet. Thanks Phronimos for the fun series. A favourite from me for the nice setting. I actually just completed the full Jasmer 2 weeks ago while on a trip to Sweden. So this series is a nice reminder of the effort its taken to get there.

Congratulations! You qualify for this challenge cache!

On a road trip today, seeking special caches as I head north. This series was on the list, starting from where I qualify from 06. This might be my first snow cache as snow was right down to beside the road today. With stunning views. Thanks Phronimos. A FAV for bringing me here today.

I have signed the log on a road trip with Lis'screw but there are some gaps in my grid still to fill. Once those are filled I will upgrade to a found log.
Still to find: Feb, March and May.

I'd just been on a great geotrip with my friend thedbees. We'd been to the Palmerston North area to collect the Stickmen and Viking puzzles. We'd then gone down to stay with another geocaching buddy in Greytown. She kindly drove us around that area before we set off to Levin via a few more specifically targeted caches. Today was the start of the long journey back to Paihia - only to Auckland today though.

Nice to collect this series today as I love a challenge. I think these ones on the Central Plateau will compete another challenge to find 10 caches above 1000m but I'll have to check that.

Thanks for the series Smile

I had trouble finding this cache even though it was a simple hide. It looks like many others looked in the same places as me, because the tussock has taken a beating. Oh well, just as well macwatt approached from the correct angle. Thanks Phronimos

Brrr. Cold up here on the Desert Road.

Heading south after a few days with my family. Did some great biking in Whaka forest. And hardly any geocaching at all! So I decided to pick up a few on the way home and then spotted this series. Perfect!!

I was not geocaching in 2008. So I have no idea what I was doing. Probably was not even born.

Easter was spent driving my cousin around the North Island, showing her some of my favorite places. Unfortunately the weather at this point wasn't the greatest, and the mountains were obscured by clouds. I also made heavy weather of finding this cache, as my phone refused to settle, sending me round in circles! Eventually, however the pesky little blighter was tracked down, and my name added to the log. TFTC!

Congratulations! You qualify for this challenge cache!

I signed this on a jaunt up the North Island, only getting round to signing this now. It was fairly dreary when I pulled over. My GPS was pushing me up the mound so spent a bit of time wandering, looking for the hint object that wasn't there, getting desert sand all over my sandals. Eventually brought back down to earth and eventually spotted it. Signed and replaced. All good here, and TFTCC.

A long weekend and balancing the weather with what we wanted to do meant that an Easter Sunday trip to Taupo was what we wanted to do. We stayed overnight with our daughter in Taihape the night before which meant we were 45 minutes closer to the lake and enabled a sedate drive North grabbing occasional caches. On my radar for today was the remaining 'This was the year' challenge caches, a recce for the Stump Bay LBH caches and a new Ad Lab in Taupo, as well as the recent Virtual placement. As has been the story lately, not huge numbers, but a nice day out and some nice sites and sights. Cheers all COs.

With Gap (of Fap and Gap)… We’re on a big Easter weekend excursion visiting Vikings and anything else in between.

Easter Friday: Away early and crossing paths with the Geckohs heading South… We did a quick visual search expecting to find a much larger section of hint material. We should have trusted the iPhone gps as the coords were good for us. Thanks Phronimos. TFTP and TFTC.

Stayed the night in my van at Whakapapa Village, first time to have done that and it was quite cool, although I must remember never to park up under trees in rain, I was kept awake with drops of water falling off the wet trees. I'm down for the weekend, for cache maintenance and to place a few caches too. There are a series of challenge caches all of which I qualify for by this C.O, they have been a must to do.

Love driving over the desert rd, done a hundred times, never tire of it. I had a few caches of my own along this route I had to attend to. Nice to pull over and claim this hide too, thanks Phronimos.

Greetings from BC, Canada.

We are a family of 5 on vacation in New Zealand. Cachers in the family include BeesKnees34, SOB_4M, AlexBN16 and me. We have been enjoying the beautiful landscape and visiting some awesome locations.

Stopping along the way to grab some cool caches. We targeted high favourite, old caches, different cache types and some other caches along our routes.

[Bike4me](https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?u=Bike4me) has used [Project-GC](https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC9N3GH/66795 "Project-GC Challenge Checker") to see if they qualified for this challenge and they did.

After a bit of searching spotted the cache.
Thanks Phronimos for the fun challenge cache!

Now finally i can put together the necessary to log these caches after bottling 10kg of Peaches and a little bit more of pears all from our trees which greeted us when got home after visiting Rotorua . I qualify for nearly all of these except, of course , the very hard ones of 2001, 2002 and 2003 although very close to 2003.
Thank you for this set of new Challenge caches

Another one of the series we qualify for.
Thankfully the rain had stopped, so having bypassed a few because it was too wet, we jumped out for a reasonably quick find here. Getting a bit chilly though.

Another long weekend, and despite the weird weather we've been having all over the country I still managed to get away up to Taupo (from Wellington) for four days of summer fun that included the annual Taupo summer concert as well as some lake kayaking and some geocaching.

I left Wellington straight after work on Thursday night and drove to Taupo. Despite the rain I was able to collect a few caches along the way. Friday was my main day for driving around the area and doing both the couple of Adventure Labs. Sunday was mostly about the kayak, and a particular cache that I could only get that way. And Monday was the drive home again for a few more road side ones on the way back home.

One of my goals for the trip was to collect all the remaining *That Was the Year (Mini Jasmer Challenge) caches that I qualified for, like this one.

Today we are making our way south from Gordonton to Feilding for a belated Christmas catchup with one of our daughters and her family, and of course we are finding a few selected caches along the way. Again we were able to safely park on "our" side of the highway and carefully make our way across to GZ. We were expecting the hint item to be a bit bigger than what we found here, but once it was spotted the cache was soon in hand. Thanks.

We had found most of our qualifying caches within 3 months of starting caching on 1st Jan 2009.

Made it harder than needed to be. GPS put us in vegetation, which is not required to find the cache. Can be reached from side oad, with no standing on plants. About 5m out. Happy to find, see previous qualifying log

Well, with worldwide triple jasmer under my belt I knew I would over qualify for this, so it was just a matter of making the find, which we did this evening - in the company of Punga & Paua and Jagersmum. This one of these challenges gave us the biggest fight - just because we were being lead a bit further away, but really this ended up being in the most obvious spot. Found on the second look.
