Logs
A quick walk around the playing fields on a blustery and showery day.TFTC
A quick easy find with the hint, although perhaps a little southwest of the coordinates for us. We note half the inner container is missing. TFTC
I was surprised to only see the top of the tube inside, log already slightly damp, but I think it is more from being signed in the rain.
Here in the land of the king white cloud to attend the mega in Dunedin. Many thanks to all those involved in the organisation! Today we targeted some oldies and virtuals . Much better weather and lots of fun. Travelling and caching as a group Qld+1. A big hike included! Cheers
Half of the bison is missing and logsheet will probably be wet before much longer.
Travelling around South Island for 2 weeks while in NZ. Finding caches here and there. Found cache and signed log. TFTC
Had a few hours spare today so caching was on my do to list. Thanks for the cache
Took longer than it should have. We interpreted the hint differently to how it was obviously intended. Half of the bison is missing. TFTC.
How can the hint be "clear" when the cache is at the end not "one panel from the end". TFTC.
A nice quick find. Thanks for placing your cache. Ms_KR and I are off on a cruise around the south of the South. Great to be away. The Mega is over and now it is time to head home. With a stop in Timaru too! A nice day for driving. A little showery at times, but otherwise great.Occassionally signed MK+KR on cache logs, and apologies for the generic logs.Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches.
Lets stop the car and see where we're going. Oh, I think we're going right here. Said hi to zephyr and family after our morning tea close by.Thank you, TeamOtago
In Dunedin for the mega, an early morning walk with 2wombles before the next event. Thanks TeamOtago for the cache.
Doing a final few trads before we need to return rental car , and catch our plane home!This was another easy one just where described in the clear hint.
Outnabout with Chamad, Snickersallan, Ardom, Bluewattle, Gcoven & BenM70 on my first ever trip across the ditch. Log signed as QLD+1 to save some space. After a week of caching around Brisbane and at events last month with other Geo friends, I couldnt pass up the opportunity to hop on board for a NZ Mega adventure. Another great day for caching. TFTC TeamOtago
Down for the MEGA with Supernannny and Net61 collecting some caches on the way. Nice quick park and grab before heading to the airport. Great to see so many visitors to this cache this MEGA weekend. TFTC
Well done on this one!Second time around and with someone who was already here we discovered it. Well done, very creative!FP added Thanks
????MEGA WEEKEND CACHING??????Joint find with DownsouthInv, Annielin, Wombats_4, MrandMrsFraggle, MrsHazzar, Abbykitt and KNCN (together the group is known as SRT, Southern Raiders and all logs were signed with that name to save space and save time) busy busy day for the group from the south, but enough time to clean up some more solves/caches ??T4TC?? PS sorry for the gereric logs so many caches to do so little time ??
Well that was easy.. wasn't it.. found after a very brief search with lots more eyes.. cheers ??
We did get help for this one and then found it, much to the relief of the little ones Thanks for a great quest!
Nice container, found quickly enough once I looked from a different angle. TFTC

Grabbing a few caches around the event location, this one had already been found and was super easy to sign.
Cache near a Mega event is always that much easier - we rocked up and pretty much got handed the logbook to sign. Loved the container too. TFTC
Had a wonder around while volunteering at the Mega. Good to stretch the legs and see the sun! TFTC TeamOtago
We found Geo Toroa 4 (Dunedin) on a nice quiet weekend visiting Dunedin for Geo Toroa, meandering through the suburbs, seeking the occasional cache. Thanks TeamOtago for hiding this cache so that we could come and enjoy ourselves
We came down to Dunedin for the great Mega event - which was really good ! - and we had several days either side , for caching up either side of the harbour and other caches around about . It was a shame that the High cliff road has been subject to the weather patterns and heavy rain and blocked the road . T he Weather either side of the mega was reasonable, but both the saturday and the sunday were rather wet . . sadly. there are so many caches all around this area so even after 5-6 days of caching there are still hundreds of caches to be found . With so many caches some get lost in a bit of a fog . We took nothing and left nothing here . Thank you for this cache .
Found shortly after the nearby multi and just before the prizegiving event. This was intended by Lord_Asker and Flaker2rule as a bit of fun - to watch me struggle and flop while they pointed and laughed. However, as is the case near a Mega, a handful of other cachers had already extracted it and were halfway through signing it. Keen to avoid time pressure, I took advantage of this fact and signed it while it was still out. Cheers!
A quick find here with a couple of other young cachers who were fossicking around when I turned up. TFTC TeamOtago.The morning was given over to having a crack at the airplane series, which was productive while it lasted, but soon ran into a snag with a closed road.So RG72 and I made the decision to head back in, source some food and keep the rest of the days caching close to home base so we could pop in first to do some pathtag swapping and the lab caches, and later on attend the prize-giving and farewell event.Thanks all COs.
Heading off to the prize giving event, LuckyL10n and I stopped by for a few local caches along the way. No issues here and the cache was soon found and the log signed.Thanks for another one TeamOtago...
Our app took us abit off. It actually was easy! Thanks to the team that came out to help!
We were looking but taking a while when some clever catchers arrived and found it. Thanks so much

09:33FITW ObnoxiousSpaceCat, Jude_E, Nosynel, wombatwandering, rowena_d, flip_nz, CentralOtagoHiltonThe Mega resgistration had opened but instead of standing in the ungodly long line for it, we decided to do some geocaching!As we arrived, there were some goecachers already sheltering in the bus stop but they hadn't found the cache yet. OSC spotted it soon enough though.Kia ora! ???? Paldies! ????Thanks for the cache, TeamOtago!#11452
Thanks so much ?? for maintaining and creating this hide TeamOtago. Another one found while waiting for the queues to die down. Obnoxious Space Cat made the find. We were joined by the Central Otago crowd and Wombat Wanderer.
Found with Kiwimykl, Paolob72, Marchwood and Agazo. I'm sure their logs will be more interesting than mine, so refer to theirs.TFTC TeamOtago
A small group formed to make a loop around the area to find a few caches. The rain was coming and going (mostly coming), so we got a little wet in the process. TFTC.
Quite a few people at GZ and the cache was located where someone had just looked. Liked the container. Thanks.
Our first physical find of this mega trip after a delayed start due to cancelled flights yesterday. Looking at the logbook, we missed the flurry of activity earlier and had gz to ourselves. Nice easy find and nicely made container. Thanks TeamOtago#17353
Found with Gazania Rigens & wombatwandering (together with a gathering of other Mega cachers), as per their logs.TFTC

A lovely Mega to attend to and thanks for all the new released caches (plus all the ones which are waiting a bit longer to be found) was fun to find them, though mostly I just cued up to sign the logbook Tftc
FTF 1215 !!! Couldn't believe my luck.. was searching for the nearby ones when this popped up! Such a cool container, so clever!!!
A TTF for Grub62 and I, Smrff78 would be impressed. Also a seat provided for logging the cache. Thanks for the entertainment and TFTC.
bunadoorian and I had just arrived at our accommodation and decided we would come for a walk to get some supplies. A bit further on was a cache - ok lets go. bunadoorian finally had the cache in hand. We hadn't realised it was only released today. TFTC and for bringing us here TeamOtago.
