Have decided to archive this one as there have been too many changes at GZ.Thanks to all those who found it and may place another here at a later date.
Cache has indeed gone missing so will have to disable for a while.Seems the PD people have been in the area doing community service and the scrub and stump as well as the cache have been removed.Will wait till work has been finished and then put a new cache in.
nice hide!! our boy had huge crashon nearby track a few days ago, so area will always be remembered!
Sent our top "tuff & hard" cacher (Ms M) in for this one after reading the other logs, as we were both wearing jandals. I managed to stay well back in a safe place admiring the find. The garden is going to be amazing in a year or three.

A great spot, nice to see how well it has cleaned up!
The area around the cache will need some attention soon or the cache may become inacessable to all but the steel shod!

Nice walk after KFC for dinner while on our summer holiday.
There was a entry saying that Geocrackers has taken the TB.
Cache in good condition, and not too hard to access.

I wasn't a happy camper when the gpsr kept pointing at a large lump of blackberry - what with me in my sandels and all those prickles. However, got around that and signed the log. TNLN Thanks.
Once upon an ugly area, now slowly being beautified. Amazing the transformation. Left Tiki Tour TB
This is going to be a great walking area once its completed! An awesome little hide - TNLNSL TFTC
The last of 4 'Rangi' caches today - ran out of time today to do anymore, but "we'll be back"
Nice to do some more of your caches after meeting you at a USAKiwi cache a few weeks ago.

Nice to do some more of your caches after meeting you at a USAKiwi cache a few weeks ago.Could have been stumped by the pricklies. Had to pick the way through a bit. Will be a great walk once more mature.

I was a bit worried about the name and the water courses so feared what was to come but in the end an easy find
Found some Nelson caches ages ago, forgot to log them and left some TBs somewhere but dont know where 
. But remember finding this one and taking Stan the Man with us

Took us a while to find this one during our holiday from the UK as it was well off the closest footpath. The area is full of wood chippings and we wondered how long the place housing the cache will last.

This will be a fabulous area once the plants grow a bit.
The blackberry around the cache site will need controlling soon though!
TNLN thanks Rangi for the cache.

TNLN thanks Rangi for the cache.
Unfortunately we had old coordinates on our GPS so after some 15 minutes of fruitless searching we loaded the correct ones and eureka.... TNLN
1396. When you get into the area that has been done up by the "Keep Motueka Beautiful" group it is indeed very nice. However, the undeveloped area around the cache is still rather nasty and overgrown. Found the cache quickly.
Thanks

Last cache for today and great to see that the town is still active at beautification. Great spot for a cache. Took toy, left 5 magnets. TFTC
Nice spot to visit. We took a roundabout route across the water. Just hope that the blackberry doesnt win the race. Its ahead at the moment. -Finger puppet + Weta
A quick and easy cache - last of the evening. This area looks like it will be nice in a few years once the trees have grown up. Cheers Gav [966]
Nice short walk in the heat, is it just me or can you smell the saw dust buring 
.
Many Thanks Bitsprayer

Neat place to walk around nice feel under your feet should be even better when the wee trees grow up a bit, nice hidding place, had to use the clue as no hiding places at GZ
Took dogs for a walk and dropped in Minnesota TB which has been in Golden Bay for 6 months and needs to move on.
Nice One!!!!!!Looks like we are swaping FTF's on our caches. Neat place to walk around and still find a number of old relics from the saw milling days. Because of location, very surprised it is still there. Let's hope they keep it that way. - Lizard + Lock and Keys. Thanks
