The coords wanted us in the middle of the road. Spent around 10 mins looking for this one, didn't want to go onto the property.
Am sure I found the right place, but a huge tree has fallen over and taken some other trees with it.
Has a good hunt around, but I think the tree may be covering the cache.

Had to grab quick in between the muggle appearances. Clever hide!

TG for the clues! Was looking in the wrong tree when I realised I couldn't see the sky
I did attempt to sign the logbook, but in the heat my pen had decided to die. So scratched onto the logbook is "8/3/10 nzgrobanite"
If the next person to find this could go over my scratchings, that would be awesome

What an amazing tree! Wish I'd known about this before I developed my horrible fear of heights!

On the 4th drive-by was finally able to get it... One silly muggle sitting in the same spot nearby for 3 hours!

Needs urgent camouflaging as it is extremely obvious. Have already seen and overheard muggles questioning what it is and why it has been left there. I am happy to do this as I am less than 40m from cache, but need owners approval.

Nice easy find.

Have moved back to "the first step" and covered it as it was very visible to muggles where it was.
[Nice easy cache, 50m from my front door! Met some lovely cachers there too ]

TFTC Had a few muggles about (some who looked like they might've been geocachers themselves!).
Cache was not where it was supposed to be - velcro backing seemed to have been affected by the heat. Have put back to where it should've been.
Left Hectors Dolphin Geocoin, dragonfly. Took variety badge.

TFTC cache very damp, logbook will need replacing soon. Perhaps put some of that damp-rid stuff in it? Did not take nor leave anything

Since going back a FOURTH time, I have finally found it. Had the right flax bush, but just couldn't find the cache.
Hint for others going for it: it is NW at base of flax bush, not SW as hint says
Took North Island Hector's Dolphin Geocoin, left a heart and a bunch of flowers

A hard find! Found the 'alien' but took me forever to find the cache! Coordinates about 10m off (W)
Beware: wear long trousers and long sleeved tops, otherwise you'll end up covered in scratches (like me!)
Took nothing, left 3 butterflies

Great find Had to nab it quickly as could hear jr muggles approaching.
Be warned: lots of hidden prickles in grass so wear shoes and be careful where you sit!

Couldn't find it first time around, coordinates would've taken me into private property.
After coming back and re-reading the hint (duh) I found it

Not sure of date as I just realised I forgot to log it, but I know it was around the beginning of Feb.
Nice and quick cache, although my GPS kept trying to tell me to go to the picnic table!
