Nice quick find here. Coords about 13m out but i just followed the hint. A lot of tagging around here [TFTC]

M25: tip: this cache relies on hint and not GPS, as the coords are way off. Yeah, I fell for it too. Apart from that it was a nice and easy find, log all good and signed here. TFTC.

Tftc, as with others, definitely a hint find and not coordinates. 15 m off.

Went off the path a bit following the gps and thought "this isn't right". Then thought about the hint and soon located the cache. Cheers!

Out and about running a few errands today. One errand was out in this general direction, so I decided to add a spot of geocaching to my agenda for the day. This was my first stop. I parked up on Old Mill Road and made the short walk to the trail head. I descended the steps and made my way over to ground zero. It wasn't raining when I left home, but a light but persistent rain seems to have settled in. The trees in this reserve meant the rain didn't prove to be much of a bother. The cache was in the first spot I looked...except I didn't look hard enough and missed it. Tried a second spot before returning to the first. This time I detected the container and completed the find. Cheers for the cache placement!

Yes, no problem today. Fitted in nicely with a memorial service I was going to nearby. Tftc.

Found thanks to the hint and thinking where would I hide a cache? Tftc

Coordinates were a fair bit off for me but hint made it a quick find. Thanks for the placement!

I just felt like having a nice evening walk so I wandered over here after getting off the bus from work. Worth noting that access from Western Springs is blocked off by the Central Interceptor works, but if you enter from Bullock Track you'll be fine Smile Nice and easy with the hint, phone had me 17 meters out, but a quick find regardless before streetmapping my way home.

Cheers for the cache!

Made the mistake of following the gps, which was miles out. Hint led me straight to cache...cheers V

My cache for the day. I had met up with merlot at one of my caches along the cycleway, I knew she was heading there so gave her a surprise by showing up there, then we shot off to another of my caches that was disabled, I replaced my cache and she signed in on the new paper, that sorted I thought I was heading to Hakanoa Reserve for a cache, merlot couldn't find it, but silly me headed here instead thinking for some reason THIS was Hakanoa Reserve, don't know how I mucked that up...lol. Poor merlot wondered what was happening but followed me here anyway...lol. She had been here just before me this morning, so has visited twice in just a few hours.

Anyway the find was an easy one, hint got me there, and off course the previous finder was also here, so now of to the real Hakanoa Reserve to see if we can find that one. Thank you for the cache and your second hide.

Coordinates a bit off for us but rereading the description and hint took us there. Great spot. We forgot our pen so took this photo instead. TFTC

We managed to get parking at the top of the hill on Old Mill Road, and after a short walk down the stairs found our way to gz. Originally, we were overthinking this hide, but then we had another look and there was the cache - exactly where the hint says!

Congratulations on your first geocache hide OscarB1309.

Congratulations on your first geocache hide OscarB1309.
A few metres out but still easy with the hint!

Years ago there was an evilno9 cache in the bushy area near here....which he archived after a while.

Nice short loop walk here tonight....
Never knew the area was called
Outer Fields!

Handy to park in Old Mill Road...

Found with kiwitrecker1, a few slips and slides whilst trying to locate it - very fun. Cache had a fair amount of water in it, drained that - log perfectly fine. Thanks for creating this one!
