AWESOME cache!! We left two lollies in the container for the next finder
Ahrund & I found 2/07/22. Easy find, great hints, great return to geocaching (first time in NZ)

Phew... yep, Agrelephant & I are a little unfit, that's for sure! The downhill wonder was a lot easier after the find
Great cache and was well camo'ed, but a quick & easy find once we reached the location - was gorgeous out there!! Had always wondered what the parking area was all about down there on my daily drives to work - now I found out
TFTC!

This park is just down the road from where I live, so was nice to see someone had planted a cache here!
Quick & easy find - thanks for the cache!!

Third of the "Wandoo" finds for us - unfortunately I was a "typical woman" and didn't fuel the car right up, so we didn't dare go too much further, also we were running out of daylight and I needed to get back home for horse duties.
We'll certainly hit up the rest of the trail another day!

This was our first time on the way to do some of the "Wandoo" caches - was a shock to find the "container"!! Wasn't expecting that at all!
Great cache - thanks!

Drive down this road when I go to my dentist and had never realised there was a sign there and a trail - was lovely to go up there and learn a little local history. This is one of the main reasons I love geocaching so much, because it takes you places you take for granted and you explore new areas.
Thanks for the cache!

Wow... what a huge and gorgeous park!! Loved walking around exploring this place - room for many more caches as well.
This cache had two Travel Bugs in it.
It was actually left open when Agrelephant & myself went there to find it, so we packed everything in there nice and tight and made sure the lid was well sealed. Surprisingly, nothing was wet in there even with the recent rain.

Actually took Agrelephant and myself some time to find it, and only just found it on the 'third look' in the spot where it was hiding to just see it. Great hide!

Looked up and down and all around, but couldn't find this one. Would like to go back and actually log a find on it, if anyone could send a hint or two our way (for Agrelelphant & myself) then we'd certainly go back and grab it to sign the log.
As soon as we rounded the corner in the car, we knew exactly where we had to look! LOTS of muggles around, but they don't seem to mind you much attention at all.
Funny enough, I actually pointed out the cache itself and was talking to Agrelephant about it before we came back and realized that IT WAS the cache. Great hiding spot - unfortunately the log is wet and soaked through so we couldn't sign it.
Was pushed a fair way underneath, took us some time to get it out while dodging lots of muggles driving in and out of the parking lot.
Funny enough, Agrelephant & I actually took a picture at the same spot as Everlasting along the trail to the cache, was a gorgeous trail and area - thanks for hiding the cache!
As Agrelephant said, my name is Sam and we have a mutual friend called Kate, so this was an awesome find - as soon as we seen "Sam" come up on the cache's to find, we knew we had to go and find it.
Thanks for the cache!

This park was just down the road from where I work - so was a super quick park, walk and grab. (yes I did complain about been bent over with my sore back while signing the log - but still a great find). Didn't know this all was just 5 minutes down the road from where I work.

Both cache & log were soaked - for memory we couldn't even sign the cache because it was too wet. Great location though, loved it.
Absolutely awesome cache - I had seen the animals in the trees down the road on my way to work every day, had no idea this was all linked to a cache until I took Agrelephant down there to find it. His second Australian cache on his visit "down under".
Took Agrelephant down the road to find his first Australian cache on his visit from the USA - nice easy find.
Drive past The Lakes every day to go to work, finally stopped to get this.
