Good find container needs replacement as bugs all around hunt helps a lot

Times up on this one, 14 years!

Nice

Pai rawa!!! Very nice hide!!!

Dont look too high!!!

Hey! The wife found this, good on her. The lid needs replacing but well located hiding place.

Just had to search for this when picking up the hubbie. The log is very damp but still signable. Tftc!

Found

Found

In a word? Infested. There were quite a number of critters calling this particular spot home, and opening the cache revealed even more. Worth noting that there is a crack in the lid, so she's definitely not watertight at the moment. Great hide & camo though, and definitely a couple of red herrings around the place. TFTC!

Very smart hide, enjoyed it

Amazing hiding & good camouflage.

Awesome little hide, thank you

I was out in the Albany area this morning, so grabbed a few caches while passing by. Parked down the road a bit and took a short walk to GZ. Started mucking around with something that I shouldn't have (that matched the 'Power' name of the cache!) then extended my search a bit further and soon had the nicely camoed cache in hand. Grabbed a TB. TFTC!

Very cool

Thanks for the cache. TB dropped.

Awesome hide

first hunt!

Cool

Awesome find

Creative and fun find!

Found it

Good hide quick find too ... on to the next

Drove passed this the other day but there are so many yellow lines round here that I kept going. Stopped up the road and walked down this morning for a quick find to continue my daily streak (Day #318) Nice camo. TFTC

Park and walk for this one. A couple of red herrings in the site, but we eventually spotted it. Just like it says on the label. TFTC.

Out caching in the area with Merlot58 and Jag50. Pretty hard not to find this one once I figured out the clue and knew what I was searching for.

Jag50, Aiden29 and I decided to collect some more of the Shore caches. Whoops almost turned down the buses only road! Found parking nearby then wandered down for the cache which Aiden found

Out caching on the Shore with Merlot58 and Aiden29. After reading the hint, we were pretty sure we knew what to search for. It didn't take long for Aiden29 to locate this cache.

Emergency pit stop for Miss Three at the bus station on the way home from swimming, so we decided to make this our "find" for the day. Thanks!

All ok

Did not open cache as the ants have made it there home. great hiding place tho and alot off time has gone into this. TFTC

Quick find once at GZ great cache container however heavily infested witg ants looks like they are making it their new home might need something to deter them

Heading North to visit family for a few days. Wasn't planning to stop here but a foul smell coming from the little one in car seat, meant and unscheduled stop. While CB drew the short straw, I headed off to grab a couple of the nearby finds. Took the long way around to this cache via a circumnavigation of the the transformers, as for some reason I thought the cache was one the other side to where it was. I realised my mistake when the number wouldn't get smaller. A quick find though once I got to GZ, a nicely crafted hide.

Another of our dodgy parking we do oh so often when caching. First drove down the bus and cycle only road and then parked where we shouldnt have. Another cool camo job. And out of here quick smart before someone comes to tow us lol.
Log signed b&p. Find number 4122.
Thanks for the cache glyn(the only one).

Thank goodness it's Sunday! Nowhere the same traffic around here as it has been during the week. That makes parking more adventurous, yellow lines - no problem, jumping onto the grass - no problem! Power to me! Like the camo jobby here G, that might give me an idea about something. I replaced paper in the cache, I think it was this one.... can't remember.

Found before another long day of work. Lots of little creatures crawling around but good solid container! Eyed it and thought, hmm that doesn't belong there!

Parked at the bus station and walked up. Another great hide, didn't let the ants stop me from claiming another cool find. TFTC

EWWWWWWWWWW YUCKKKKK YUCKKKK EWWWWWWWWW (followed by retreating feet) was the reaction as I approached GZ.

Miss NZT had made the find and after turning over had the above reaction, it as therefore left to Mr NZT to do the log extracting and signing duties and replace the cache.

This cache had 2 purposes it kept our daily streak going and it gave us the "getting out there" souvenir.

After we had done the cache we wandered to the bridge that overlooked the motorway. Miss NZT showed no initial interest however as it was Saturday morning the traffic was almost at a standstill and all of a sudden Miss NZT became Miss Popularity as she had people waving up at her and I had trouble now making her leave.....

TFTC

Out for an end of the working week night caching jaunt with the gadget team. Once we got through the ants we were at ground zero.

Awesome camouflage!

Found! eventualy.

makes me want to carry bug spray on caching advetures now. lol

Quick stop before heading back across the bridge. Plenty of parking nearby at the bus terminal. Nice hide, was a bit worried when I saw the key, but quickly figured out it's reason for being there. TFTC

Way too many spiders around this one for my liking but great camo as usual.

A great hide and camo - thanks Glyn.
It was covered in bugs and the inside of the cache is damp, but the log paper was fine. Cheers

I came at GZ from the Park and Ride, but didn't figure out the best route until I went under. After doubling back, I got to GZ and found the cache. It had rained recently, so I got wet has I nudged the wet branches. TFTC.

Tricky, tricky. Found by Stampin.

Found it, but too many bugs around for me to open container.

Heaving with lots of little beasties but none the less a nicely camoed cache which was exactly where the GPS said it was ! TFTC

Lucky this was a quick find as the closest parking spot had a 2 minute time restriction. TFTC

Trying to get our "find rate" up to 1/day for the year. Thought Albany had a good density of caches but bailed here when the traffic stopped moving. We got a safe park 100m away but then had to go nearly a km to access. Even at 30m our GPS led us a merry chase back and forth the very busy road. So much so that a waiting muggle decided she didn't really need to wait. Good cache. PINO TFTC

Nice this was quite tricky but found it in the end. That was extremely cool and fun.

Had several tried to get to GZ. and managed it finally.
Great cammo and hide. TFTC.

This is a fantastic hide thanks Glyn ! Can't believe it's been here since 2006 ! One of the oldest I've ever found ! I put the key to good use !

I like the hide. Very good. TFTC.

Very cool hide!!! Super windy today. Son swapped out blue flower eraser for the car (ofcourse). Thank you!

Awesome. I'd love to see your workshop, you bloody crazy man! Another fantastic cache. Dried out the inside and replaced the two small plastic bags too. Cheers.

TFTC. Orange hotwheels left, nothing taken. Nice hide. Quick find. Terrain a bit rocky.

Nice camo! Its going on my favorites list.

First cache for benson.leng and kate1217. Nice and easy.

Well hidden! Took me a while but I found my first cache

Nice camo. Thanks.

Easy find, but someone had left it open and all the contents had fallen out and got wet. I tried my best to leave it in good condition.

Took a while as GPS took me a bit off but had a few cockroaches in geocache

Managed to park right next to the and the gps took me right up to the cache both leading to a quick find. Very well camoed container but full of ants. Tftc

Fantastic cache!

My GPS was all over the shop under the trees, but still an easy find with the aid of the clue. Creepy crawly tenants evicted by a previous cacher had taken up residence again, but didn't cause any issues other than ickiness... but getting the lid off did! And now I have an idea about another cache from this CO that I've been unable to find! TFTC!

I was parked a little way away so wandered over the road at the traffic lights to log this find. Thanks glyn.

#828 I had some work up here this morning and some time to kill so went for a bit of a wander. There were some workmen at the station but I was able to make the find unnoticed. Nice cache- thanks Glyn, I really enjoy finding your hides!!

Quick find while on a lunch time stroll - the clue meant nothing till I go to GZ - clever! #5261

Windy and rainy so no one was around. Quick find thanks to the hint. Had a few creepy crawlies to contend with as I opened the cache but I showed them who was in charge TFTC

Another nice afternoon walk..............good for some caching. A rather quick find with co-ords 'spot-on' ....great camo and hide! Didn't realise how elevated this road was and how long the motorway bridge was...until we walked the length of both !! TFTC

Out and about for a couple of hours with the Future Finder for a spot of caching this afternoon. Took a cheeky park and made a quick find of the nicely constructed hide. Cheers for the cache placement!

On our beautiful trip from Auckland to Wellington and return we stopped at this nice spot and found this cache. We found many nicely hidden containers.
We would like to thanks everyone for showing us such nice locations and of course, the numerous caches.
Thanks and best regards from Germany

Awesome camo

Super camo and great clue!

love the hint xD

I decided to grab this as a quick diversion in the last moments before darkness blotted out all chance of seeing it. I ended up searching by touch anyway. In Glyn's true style, the camo felt impressive, (i couldn't see it). Apologies for unreadable signing...i was trying to hold the log, light out with my phone and sign at the same time. It wasn't a completely successful technique. Tftc! Nino.

Quick find for us as we walked right to the spot where the cache was. Enjoyed opening the cache. TFTC

Very cool camo and close to another of your caches related to the same material. I had to disturb some of its inhabitants to open the container and sign the log but I'm sure they will find their way back. TFTC

Another orsum cammo job, thanks Glyn
Have been driving past this cache for much of the year and today I felt that the power was with me and that a Glyn Cache was required to meet the addiction that I had.
Soon spotted, not a disappointment

Thanks for another great cache

They say Tom Toms are great, but I have my doubts! Ours simply can't get to grips with us leaving the road. Found the cache anyway, with the hints. Very clever.

Stop 5 on our night hunt, Could not find in the dark haha
Came back the next day during the morning and found alot easier,
Hint helped nicely as well
Took Pickin' the Blues Geocoin (TB41EDA)

Mental note: read the description before attempting to search. Walked much further than I needed to. Watch out for the spider. Dropped in a TB. TFTC.

Didn't take long to spot the cache in its hiding spot nor dud it take long to spot the sentry spider you left in charge!!! Your caches are really testing my limits on things I don't like to do or touch!!! Managed to convince the spider to move over using a stick and thought why do I need a key??? It all makes sense once you find the cache unless you have claws of steel! Another enjoyable Glyn cache! TFTC

Loved the camo

was with Pappydoc on this one. Great camo job, like the hint too

The coolest camo. Love it.

I initially couldn't locate the cache but then realsied that I'd walked right around it. After a slight change in search technique, the cache was in hand and then after another 5 minutes the logbook was retrieved.

A great camo and thanks for the additonal tool.

TFTC

Nice hide. Quiet place from foot traffic though the road very busy of course. TNLN TFTF

Once the car was sorted, thought to check this one out as well. Was greeted with roache(S) on this one. Manage to get them away with a stick and signed the log. Cache back in place. Made this one the last one for the day, as Mrs wanted to go to the Blues game so did not want to be late for that!

Loved the spot.

TFTC glyn.

Found it just where the clues said it was. I can see why you need the key.

Good camo. KirsTim

Fairly quick find. Good hint. Awesome camo. TFTC.

Out caching with Missfeez and her dog, searched for a bit and soon had the cache in hand, Love the camo on this one!

Out caching in the area with naana7 & my puppy when we found this one, love the camo!! Very impressive

Found while in the area

Replaced log, cleaned cache out, all good.

Found it! Log book is really wet, couldn't sign it. Nice camo...

Easy find. Got away with using the 2 min parking. Log book still soggy. Nicely camoed cache.

Great camo. Wet log book

Cool camo, clever clue. TFTC!
