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 nzkellyfamThis 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

Couldn't find it but couldn't have a good search as it was very busy.
 
Started looking but cache placement is not ideal Sad
 
May want to re-think placement, bush right next to toilet door is not a place you want to spend time
 
03-Mar-24
Been multiple times and no find

Arms are all scratched up but no cigar

In TA helping a friend set up her new dog grooming salon: Dave and Andys Dog Grooming. Had a Bit of a break and decided to let the dogs roam at the park and look for a cache. Found nearby where we thought it would be. Definitely in. Thanks for the cash!
 
31-Dec-23
Previous logs helped as GPS was pointing us a bit further away. TFTC
 
20-Nov-23
Quick find put it bk in the same place it's more in then under whanau.
 
21-Oct-23
Had almost completely given up on this one after diving through all nearby shrubbery at the indicated coordinates, but just before giving up I spotted something in a past log that it was a bit out of place
 
21-Oct-23
The last find for today's outing. More than a little confused where this might be at first. Had to rely almost entirely on past logs to locate this one.
 
12-Oct-23
Not so much under, more in. Had to Abandon initial search as muggles arrived to find a loo. Then after looking under a few things only to find ivy I looked in and there it was. TFTC
 
05-Oct-23
It's in a sistema container. So not to small.
 
28-Sep-23
I looked like it was thrown in a bush
 
27-Jul-23
Quick find after the rain cleared.
 
07-Jul-23
A quick find by Mrs B. Our first for this trip. TFTC
 
21-May-23
The coordinates were a bit dodgy but after reading some past logs found it easily. The cache is all good. Thanks for the placement.
 
15-May-23
Lots of muggles coming and going so I had to be patient and wait until the coast was clear before looking. It was found pretty quickly thanks to reading some previous logs.
Thanks for setting this up
 
23-Apr-23
The previous post was a big help, found in, not under, replaced as found, TFTC
 
19-Mar-23
Definitely more in than under - but we got there in the end. #nopencil
 
12-Mar-23
Our very first find thank you!
 
04-Mar-23
Passing through Te A on a trip away and decided to pick this one up. Took a few minutes and it definitely wasn’t where my phone led me but I managed to find it. TFTC
 
20-Feb-23
Literally in more
 
17-Feb-23
2.00pm. Another find where the coords were spot on and I went straight to it.
Thank you. David.

Today we visited Te Awamutu to pick up the container for our archived geotour cache, and noticed we had one unfound cache in the area - this one at Anchor Park. As we pulled into the carpark it looked very familiar, and we realised that we had looked for this one unsuccessfully in the past. Checked the latest logs and saw that the cache was being found, and a comment or two helped explain why we had missed it last time. Walked across to GZ, and found the container in the first place I checked. Well that was easier than we had expected. TFTC
 
22-Jan-23
Thank you
 
08-Jan-23
Found more in than under

Nice little PNG TFTC
 
02-Jan-23
Found this one with novalightning. Just started my account yesterday so will be logging with my dad. It's more in then under
 
02-Jan-23
This one took longer than it needed to. After reading the previous logs we started to look in instead of under. This helped and eventually we got the right in and had cache in hand.

Everything is fine with this one. Dry and plenty of space to sign.

Bit of a panicked trip to Te Awamutu to intercept the Intercity bus mum had missed catching in Tauranga. Managed to get her on it here luckily.

While I am in town, I might as well find some caches, seeing I've not found any here before.
Nice to have a bit of a tour around town.
Quick find here.
Hint is more like inside, than under.
Thanks for bringing me here.

Found with Polargirl, it has been on our list for a while and luckily there was no one around this time. Found after a short search

A beautiful morning to find the new caches in Te Awamutu with Nahkins. Found 7 out of 7. Another find for Nahkins. Gps had us going back and forward over the driveway. I think our Gps were a bit stale as we haven't used them for awhile. Finally found and logged. TFTC

It's been a long long time since we have been caching and since there were some new ones in town NZPatoto and I went adventuring out today in the beautiful sunshine. I drove as I know Te Awamutu and we didn't bike as I have a injured arm.6 of 7 Found by Nahkins Had a walk around, GPS being naughty and sending us both in the wrong direction, then decided to start looking under and found it. TFTC Big Grin

With Gap (of Fap and Gap). We’re heading to Huntly to catch up with our friends this evening. We have time to kill, so a round about journey is the ticket…

A bit of systematic searching got us a result. The cache could easily be mistaken for rubbish, so we had to be sure… Thanks nzkellyfam and TFTC.
