Nice walk to get this multi. Thanks.
 
21-Mar-24
Nice early morning find. I gathered the information ages ago so this was a quick smash and grab. Thanks Busy!
 
16-Mar-24
Got the information from the waypoints and found I had one checksum wrong. Thought back to all the info and couldn't work out where I had gone wrong. Eventually realised what the problem was and then a quick find at the final. tftc to fill a multi dot day and another challenge cache requirement.

Nice little multi perfectly located between the two places I needed/wanted to be at this morning! Nice walk, easy-lo-locate clues, and a handy final. TFTC!!

A few cars parked up watching the choppers work on the Worsleys Rd fire, but only a few walking around. Quickly located the nicely hidden cache, then went for a walk around the path.. at the South End, Canterbury Helicopters (and a few friends) were using the field as a staging area. Saw one take off, and another land. then back to the car.. Thanks for the placement!TFTC busy paws, the cache was found in good order Very Happy Signed, sealed and returned to GZ. 1 find(s) of 1 today, making this find #4707

I got the information for this one a week or so ago on a bike ride. Today I came back in the car to make the find. Having studied the location on google satellite view I didn't even get my phone out but went from memory and straight to the right location. Another multi dot day complete, yay! Thanks busy paws!

Thank you for this Multi, busy paws - found after having morning tea nearby (!). Great to fill a Multi dot day without too much agony.

A fairly straightforward multi and quick find while out on an impromptu caching trip while I wait 2 hours for the bug bomb to do it's thing at home. Waking up on New Years Day to an ant infestation wasn't exactly how I envisioned 2024 starting- hopefully it's not an omen. I don't have appropriate footwear for too much walking or tricky terrain (jandals) so this wee wander was perfect. As this was a fairly unplanned trip my phone battery as well as my air buds are going flat so I guess it's time to give up on caching and kill the last hour with supermarket shopping instead Thanks for your time and effort placing and maintaining so many great caches. Much appreciated Happy New Year everyone

We came here and collected all the numbers last night but we got the numbers a bit wrong. We fixed them and so we are back again this afternoon. It took a bit of a circuitous route to find GZ but we got there and I found the cache easily. D was a bit tricky as there was a different number of arrows on each side of the post.
 
31-Dec-23
Did a better job of the numbers on the sofa. Back today for another, successful crack.
 
28-Dec-23
Need a multi today and to walk off some Christmas treats lol. Cold wind but still good to get out. Got required info and then did sums. After signing log we decided to do the loop walk back. Thanks for this multi and the cache busy paws.

A lovely place and a quick find. TFTC

17:23 FITW GreenMenace Not sure if this has changed physically or if I'm not understanding something correctly but there are two sides on the post for the D value. And two possible answers. As always, with the checksum, easy to iron out stuff like this. Great wee walkway. I have been here and walked the whole way round some time before (more caching, of course). But nice to come back and see how the natives have grown. Will be amazing and lush in a few more years.99 left!Kia ora! Paldies! Thanks for the cache, busy paws!#10062

StreetWalkerNZ had found this cache on a solo mission a few days ago, so he kindly stopped by after we had found a few nearby caches, so I could also turn this into a smile. The wetland is coming on nicely since my last visit. A short walk (using SW's calculated co-ords) and the cache was quickly found - by him as well! All I had to do was sign the log book. Thanks for bringing me back here and TFTC.

#23286. After 2 DNFs (and a find) I was keen to make two more finds so I could head back to work. This was a quick find as I'd worked out the coords (and susses out the hide) soon after publication. Whew! TFTC.
 
19-Dec-23
An early finish from work resulted in a spot of caching. I'd actually intended to solve this and leave the find for another day but it was sooo close! A nice easy find (not the first today, I see).TFTC busy paws CoolFind number 5146(Logs signed Rincewind3 or R3 if saving space. Occasionally signed BRN if caching as a team with *B*o&bronnie, *R*incewind3 and *N*otManlyJack)
 
Out geo biking today so found this newish multicache. Visited the points and collected the coords. Wp2 was a little bit confusing so choose the higher number. Easily found the final. TFTC

JD and I decided to go on a bike ride this weekend based around your multi. We biked around and around in circles at one stage . Then we walked around and around in circles until we found the cache.
 
23-Nov-23
Lots of early morning dog walkers around, anyway the information was quickly gleaned and off to the final location, have been here before for another cache possibly? TFTC
 
22-Nov-23
And another multi dot day down. Came out for a bit of a wander. Was surprised the water levels are as low as they are today.
 
21-Nov-23
A nice quick find after a bit of rain overnight. The route to the cache was dry enough though. Thanks for placing your cache. Ms_KR and I Around and about Christchurch, collecting caches as we need.Occaisionally signed MK+KR on cache logs, and apologies for the generic logs.Thanks to all CO's for publishing and maintaining their caches.

So close to home, this would have been a race between Team-Gaiters and us for FTF, but we were busy on The Coast! Fitted in well today. Thank you busy paws.
 
19-Nov-23
Quickly got the required numbers for a quick find. Now off to take my sister and brother-in-law to visit my sister-in-law ( Hotspud) in Leithfield

My how this place has changed with all the maturing plantings. A short walk,and some not too hard questions saw us in a place where we had been some years ago. Another special multi. Thank you BP.

I did the walk around of 3 multis last week in preparation for multi dot days. I have well over 100 of those! A lovely day today to come visit the final. Many thanks for creating this multi, busy paws.#10022

Enjoyed another visit to these wetlands. Strolled around and gathered up the numbers before making a quick find at the final GZ. TFTC.

This made for lovely evening walk collecting the info. I was pretty sure I knew where GZ would be and just followed the elephant tracks to the cache. TFTH and the walk.

With a very conveniently placed multi in a very familiar location we were able to combine a pleasant little stroll with popping out for household chores, and fill in a multi dot day at the same time. A troop of very cute ducklings allowed themselves to be photographed. TFTC busy paws!
 
12-Nov-23
A lovely day to go for a wander. Saw dogs and ducklings. Met a man who wondered what we were doing. We gave him a quick lesson on Geocaching. He seemed quite interested. Then while we were working out the final a fellow cacher came by and we headed off to the final to find the cache. An easy find once we got our maths correct. Thanks Busy_paws.

**FTF** 945amI was on the other side of town this morning wandering brighton spit finding a couple other caches when i noticed this new publication quite close to home. Hmmm, wonder when that was published?! Heading home anyway so stopped by for a look. Carpark empty but as i was gathering wp1 about 5 carloads of dog walkers decended on the place! Easy enough though to collect the info and make a quick find and sign at gz. Love this area....often swing through on an evening walk with MrsTG.
