Despite below average weather, the park was a fairly bustling spot today. Spotted the cache quite quickly, but stealthily retrieving it, signing the log, and replacing it proved a slow, patient process. TFTC

School holidays, so time for a road trip and some caching. After attending a geocaching event this morning at Hamilton Gardens we spent the afternoon collecting some local caches. Great park where our geohound enjoyed a run around and meeting other dogs. Found Where’s Wally 1 yesterday. Keep to find out if he had succumbed to the same fate? No problems with the find. Cache/ log all fine. Thanks for the smiley.

Took the dog out for a walk & a swim. Spotted the cache & resumed our walk. Fav for the walk.

Out in the park with the geopup in between rain showers. Got to GZ and something caught our eye. Tftc

We were enjoying a very wet walk this morning picking up a few caches along the way, pleased to have the walkway mostly to ourselves.
This cache was a great one and we liked the extra challenge of searching the picture for clues.
We checked a few places before spotting the very nicely themed cache and decided to take the log under the shelter of the nearby building to sign it as the rain was quite heavy and we didn't want to get it wet.
While we were signing it the rain eased a bit and suddenly a lot of dog walkers who must have been sheltering nearby started appearing, making it difficult to return the log without being seen.
Fortunately there was a quiet moment and we quickly returned the log and made sure the container was closed to keep out any water.
What a great hide and nicely themed too.
Thanks gogoguises.
A favourite point from us.

Found by tree in bush
 
24-Apr-23
I didn't know what the hint was about, although I was able to identify things of interest in the picture, i couldn't see anything relevant around GZ. Fortunately it was a straight forward find anyway.
Thanks for putting this cute little container here.
 
17-Apr-23
I had one in this area previously, but yours is much cooler. I found the cache container open. Might be a good idea to attach the log container so it doesn’t fall out.
I put it back together
I’ll take care to watch out for TRex when on this walk!
 
15-Apr-23
Found and logged. Had ventured by earlier in the year but without pen so saved it for another day. TFTC.

Came down to Hamilton for a day of caching. We started at Hampton Downs and gradually worked ourselves south. I'm with tramyard in his green 4wd buggy, great little car and economical.

We had a lovely walk to this cache, we came from the dedication cache to FMZ. Lot's of people everywhere by Waikato river and even more flamin' dogs, off course many are not on leads.... grhh. Anyway, tramyard found the cache, not in the large obvious tree but close by anyway. Thanks for the cache guys.

Quick one once you are on the correct path.
Heaps of dogs runing everywhere Smile

Road trip with Gorby for the "18th" Event in Hamilton. We had some time to pick up a few hides. This was one of them.

I`m logging this cache as my 10180 find.
TFTC gogoguises!

This was exciting for me and my kids with a small climb involved
 
took a little bit of finding, got there in the end
 
05-Feb-23
Wow this one was tough. Wasn’t sure exactly where GZ was so searched and searched all trees. Looking high looking low. Really struggled here. I’ll wait to see if others find it and attempt another day
 
27-Jan-23
Was in a mission to get some newish geocaches in Hamilton as staying in nearby Huntly for a few days.....
This proved a bit tricky...where I first was looking would be like a needle in an Ivy Stack .
So I read all the logs!
OH OK ....thanks for that helpful suggestion fellow cacher!
Came at a different angle and saw it exposed .
Signed log and covered the unusual container with natural cover....phew!
No dnfs so far today....
 
19-Jan-23
It it cable tied so it is still very likely there.

Believe it to have been washed away

A family joy ride… Cyclone Hale had kept us mostly inside. So on a rare fine Saturday, we decided to get in the car and go for a drive up Highway 1. A stop at Rangiriri Pub seemed better than staying home. Of course, we had caching business too…

This cache was great for the dog. She ran her little legs off and snapped at the other dogs that wanted to spoil her fun… We climbed around and spied the cache, but wanted to explore elsewhere, just in case. The cache was fully exposed but safely attached. On the way out, we recovered with some light natural camo. Thanks gogoguises. TFTC.

In the area to collect a cache that we had tried previously but failed to find but armed with some new information and knowing the cache had recently been found, we decided to give it another go. This cache was a nice easy find, which we appreciated on a wet, dull day! TFTC
 
08-Jan-23
Out with ABCDF4 and eyespyben. After collecting Wally 1 we decided to follow that with Wally 2. Lots of people and their canine friends so we had to time when searching. Got there in the end. Thank you for the placement.
 
08-Jan-23
Out today with KGD and EyeSpyBen, nice quick find. TFTC.

After a little lookin found by Mr ABCDF4 and KGD whilst in the area. TFTC.

Well I’m surprised this has not been found yet, surely you all got woken by the earthquake at 5.40 this morning?
 
04-Jan-23
The earthquake didn't wake me for some reason. Up at 8am to see this new cache published at 6am mmm I'll give it a go. The clue wasn't much help to me but used a process of elimination. Cleaver hide a worth a fav from me. Tftc [FTF]435
