Logs for murmeltier 

An diesem Cache angekommen stellte ich fest, dass mein Smartphone nicht mehr funktionierte. Mist. Ohne ist man ganz schön angeschmiert.
Also hab ich ein paar Touris angesprochen. Die haben dann ein Bild von mir am Brandenburger Tor gemacht und es mir per e-maill zu gesendet.
Nette Option.
Danke unbekannterweise an die zwei und an den Owner für diesen Cache.

Some month ago, I found this challenge
http://coord.info/GC4642W Cache Challenge: Maximum Distance (find 2 caches with the maximum distance on earth) (20000 km)
First thought that's easy. I've been in Spain and NZ (2004) for caching and this seems to match.
But ... there are about 80 km missing to solve the challenge above.
The only way is to go to Spain (1000 km from home) or visit NZ again and look for a matching cache.
My challenge is to visit NZ again and solve the challenge above. Let's see!

Heute haben wir uns die Umgebung des Dom's angesehen. Da gehörte natürlich eine Turmbesteigung dazu. Überall waren wir von den verschiedenen Gesteinen umgeben. Dazu passte dieser Earthcache.
Interessant ist, dass ein großer Teil der Steine aus Hessen kommt, gar nicht weit von uns weg.
Danke für die Eindrücke und für den Cache

Today we 'passed' this Portal. On the picture you see Team murmeltier and Redburne.
Thanks for the cache.

Beim Köln Besuch durfte dies Portal nicht fehlen.
Danke für den Cache 

Found the cache easy, but couldn't retrieve it because of some nearby muggles.
After the disappeared, I could sign the log.
Nice quiet park in Tokyo

Today I took the Yamanote Line to Shinagawa and switched to the Keihin-Tohoku Line to Yokohama. I started a little walk (23 km) to find some caches in this area.
It took a while to find this one. Removing the cache, the magnet was separated by the box. I fixed it with self adhesive tape, but the owner should try to fix it better.
Thanks for the cache

Stage 1 was blocked by not friendly looking muggles. So I gave up. 

Diesen hab' ich leider nicht gefunden, obwohl er wohl noch da ist, wie die 2 Logs heute beweisen. (oder war er gerade entführt?)
Gruß Reiner aka murmeltier 

This was also the second attempt for this cache. Yesterday we weren’t allowed to go into the park. The security was absolutely strict.
Today it was hard to reach the cache, because of many muggles near the cache.
After a while I managed it.
Thanks for the cache and the nice place.
Reiner aka murmeltier
 

found this cache today on the second attempt. Yesterday the terrain was locked. After a while I found the box, but it was a bit strange to search for a cache at such a place. But nobody asked me what I’m doing there.
Thanks for this quiet place near the very busy touristic spot.

This well, called Brackeborn, is placed near Roth / Germany where I lived for the first 12 years of my life. In this time we often visited this wonderful place with our parents.
The coordinates of this well are: N50 42.720 E8 41.796
Thanks for this cache.

Was war das für ein Tag. Zuerst mal wieder SWANNY getroffen, und mit Ihm 5 Caches in der Umgebung gesucht und gefunden, und dann dieser Event.
Der machte seinem Namen alle Ehre. Das nächtliche Rumstöbern im Wald, quer durch Bäche und mit Wildschweinkontakt war teiweise etwas chaotisch, aber auch deswegen schon wieder sehr unterhaltend.
Ich hoffe, wir treffen uns mal wieder im Wald oder sonstwo.
Ich Danke euch Beiden für die tolle Organisation, und allen anderen Cachern für den tollen Abend.
Und täglich grüßt das Murmeltier! 

Ich sehe gerade, dass SWANNY geschrieben hat, er liebt es Fotos aus aus NZ zu sehen.
SWANNY ist Geocacher aus NZ und arbeitet für ein Jahr in Jena. Wir haben zusammen um Weihnachten in der Marburger Ecke gecacht.
z.B. LOG in 'Weil die Koordinaten so schön sind'
Wäre schön, wenn er auch kommt! oder 

Hallo maxgeo,fianna,geoPirat,

Ich werde zum Treffen kommen. Mußte lange hin und her überlegen, weil auch ein Wochenendcachen in Berlin anstand.
Ich komme früher (16:00) und bringe Bilder von unserem (Cache)Urlaub in Neuseeland mit. Beamer wäre schön.
Gruß Reiner aka 1/2 Murmeltier

After short search we found the cache. It was a little bit difficult to take it, because of the many students there.
Thanks for hiding it.

We put TB Shambock in the cache, who should travel to the north shore of Auckland. We are interested what happens now.
 

Sunny day this morning. After breakfast on the camping ground at Haruro falls we found the cache quickly. The table showes us the way to the next cache, ' The Battle of Ruapekapeka'. Thanks to Squeekybobo for this cache.
The cache is in good condition.

After visiting the battlefield, we searched for the 'natural seat'. After some time we found the right one, and the cache.

After finding a place for the night we found 250 meter away the waypoint of this cache. So we took a little walk to the cache position, and found it without problems. The weather was not very good, so we had no problems with geo-muggles. Thanks to GoGranny for this cache.

We came not via the Ninety Miles Beach. The road was so awfull, that I nearly gave up. The poor campervan. At the end we reached the cache and found it without problems. After that, we drove 1 mile of the 90 miles beach, and took the gravel road backto the 1F, where we continued to Cape Reinga.
Thanks to the Hairy Little Dwarf for that experience.

We reached this point after some strange kilometers gravel road. The poor campervan. Many people there, but we haven’t to search for a real box.
The logbook is no more at his place. Instead I found a key where the logbook should be.
Thanks for this cache
Reiner & Jutta aka Murmeltier from Germany
 

We found this cache after a short walk along the lake. It was guarded by some birds, which where disturbed by us.
Everything in the cache was a bit wet, so we dried it as good as possible.
The sheet for the logs is completely filled. Peejay, you should add a new logbook to the cache.
Thanks for hiding it.

We found this as the first cache of the day without problems. The cache is in good condition.
After this we climbed the hill. This was a bit harder to do. But the view was wonderful and a good reward.
Thanks for hiding the cache.

On our way to the north we stopped here to walk through the park and search for the cache.
With the given description it was easy to find.
The cache is in good condition.

On our way to this cache, that is placed near the motorcamp we have been for 2 days, we met 3 geocachers that visited the cache yust bofore us. They saw our Garmin and asked us 'do you search the cache'. Nice place for a cache.
Thanks to Klaymen.
In: Marbles by Murmeltier
Out: nothing.

Take care!!! the TB was no more in the cache. I took a foto of the log from the geocacher who took it, and ask for the bug.

The GPS reception was very poor, and we had only a rough distance ftom the seat. So we used the hint and found it after some minutes. Thanks to Saff and Tiger for this cache.

We came to this place to watch the bore fields. After that we switched on the GPS and found that we are 'standing' on this cache.
It was easy to find, besides it was placed under a flax bush. The cache is in good condition.

It was a bit complicated to drive up the hill on this hot and sunny day. But finally we found the way with our campervan. We enjoyed the
View to the harbour, and found the cache exactly at the given coordinates. It was a bit muddy, so we cleaned it. Now it is in good condition again.

Found by Murmeltier,

After breakfast, we drove to Te Mata Peak and took a walk up and down the different hills to the cache.
With the hint it was easy to find the box. The cache is in good condition.
Thanks for hiding it.

Reiner and Jutta from Germany 

We found the place, and I think we found the right position.
But we found no box. It might be that the box is lost.
Thanks for showing us the interesting oak road.
 

We came here to see one place of 'Lord of the Rings'. We where happy to find a cache nearby. After a short walk we found it without problems. Everything in the box was rather wet, so we dried it as good as possible. The sheet with the description of Rivendale is wet and not yet readable. It should be replaced.
Thanks for this cache.

We saw the cache in the GPS from the RH2 and want to have the great view of the summit. What a road to it! I always want to go a real gravel road during our holidays in NZ. That's it. At the end of the road we had a wonderful view (also to the road we have to go down). It was no problem finding the cache. The only problem was the strong wind. We thought that our campervan starts to glide.
Thanks NZWIDE for leading us to this point. We surely hadn't come to it without the cache.

After breakfast, we directly drove the this nice recreation area. But what a pity, one bridge was closed because of the heavy rain in February. So we had to go a little more by feet.
Finding the cache was easy.
Thanks for this cache.

On our way to the north during holidays we stopped here to visit the cache. Thank to the by Sallies & Raewyn for the confirmation of our answers and the nice spot.

After we visited the city of Wellington, we went here to visit a place of 'Lord of the Rings'. Finally we searched this virtual cache location to have a wonderful view around Wellington.
Thanks

We had some time until the departure of the ferry to the north island. So we started to Karaka Point where a TB should be. After a short time we found it. The TB Snowflake was really in the box. Thanks Moneydork for the cache.
+ keyring
- TB Snowflake. It want to go back to Sweden. I think we can help.

On our way to Pickton we passed this nice place and had a wonderful view. After checking a moment without tourists, (except of us) we found the cache without problems.

We walked along the old trail line and found the place. After using the hint, I think we found the the place where the cache should be. But we didn`t find it. Instead we found an zip lock plastic bag, in whitch the caches of Moneydork normally are packed. It might be that the cache has been stolen. Could someone who knows the cache side check it?
Reiner & Jutta aka Murmeltier
 

It's a long time ago that I heard about this famous man in school and during studying in Germany.
I didn't know that he came from NZ. Thanks to Steve and Ruth for this cache, and the confirmation of our answer.
Otherwise we would have missed to dtop at the monument.
 

We found this cache while we visited Moneydork, in the eavening of the 4.March.
We came back at the next morning and logged it.
Nice to see the glow worms.
Thanks

This was an easy cache without too much gorse. Thanks to Tazzie&Lizzie for hiding it.

Found it after a short time of search. This is a nice beach, but too dangerous to swim. Thanks for this cache.

The walk was a little bit longer because the bridge and the last 1km was closed. We found the box quite easy. With the coordinates out of the box it was no problem to find the hot spring. I build a little dam and I sit in the little pool. I didn't mix the water with the cold water from the river. The temperature was quite OK.
Thanks for this extraordinary cache.
Reiner & Jutta
 

We found the cache with the hint very easy. The only problem was to hide it after loging. In the mean time some girls came to swim at this place.
Thanks to Moneydork for this scenic view. (We didn't swim)
No trade
Reiner & Jutta from Germany
 

We took the wrong car park, so we had a nice walk at the beach. It was a little bit difficult to reach the cache due to the camping people nearby. At least we managed it.
Thanks for showing us this nice beach.
After the cache we visited Lake Matheson, but there where too many dugs, so we couldn't get good pictures with the mirror of the mountains.
No trade.
