No find, Searched all the 'obvious' places. There was a nice gooseberry bush which will be ready for picking in mid to late December. Gooseberry jam is the best! It seems an unlikely place to have been muggled so perhaps I was just not looking well enough, and its a small one too [)]
Couln't find this one. Have read the logs since being back home and you said that you had moved it. Bad luck I should have read the logs before going out
Last one for the day on the way home, 3 out of
4, suppose not bad for the first day.

Nothing wrong with this new location; it's an interesting construction.
Mama Bear was playing with the metal puzzle, but she solved it with half of it going Ping! and getting lost in the litter!
Took: half a puzzle (!)
Left: carabiner compass
Thanks; another place we'd never have thought to stop at!

Cache has become a bit waterlogged 
Maybe next person planning a visit could pick a nice sunny day and allow plenty of time to dry things out.
Left the dice from Clear Waters cache and took the Penguin.

On a work trip down to Dunedin thought I would take detour number 5... Followed Bruce by about 1.5hrs and yes the cache was a little waterlogged - did not have time to spend letting the cache dry out 
No exchange, Cheers

Good cache, driven past this place hundreds of times and never knew it existed. Lovely spot. Took Magic Glasses and returned 2 x tea candles. Trunky Travel Bug visited this site en route to Moeraki
It was a fresh, clear morning as we set out from Oamaru. This is a really interesting spot and a well hidden cache. Thanks. We left a roll of insulation tape and took the nail clippers.
