Logs for tofska 

Checked on this - cache is still there. A torch may be useful.Cheers, M@ 

The area is quite exposed now, and the cache's hide has been well dug up.When this cache was placed, the Beveridge to Arataki track didn't even exist. I discovered the well overgrown cuttings by accident in an exploratory bush-bash. On finding the Monkey Drive tunnel, it was clear that something used to be here. At that time you could walk to the end of the tunnel, which was blocked up, and scare the passers-by on Exhibition Drive by poking your arm out of the ventilation pipe!  

Cache replaced and in a slightly different position now. 

I visited GZ today and the path is still under construction. It looks like development has been halted. I doubt it would usually take this long to build a path, but Auckland does have higher priorities at the moment.

Cheers, M@ 

Lets wait until this boardwalk is finished, and if it's still suitable.
Cheers, M@ 

Yeah, I've found that the lid makes no difference. As long as the drainage holes are clear and the bag is solid, the contents will remain dry.
Cheers, M@ 

First find for our Te Awa trip 

Very clever  

Quick find. T4TC 

Getting used to these 

Quick find. T4TC 

Not at first likely place, but cacher sign found the way 

Yes, once we found the right post. A few decoys. 

Lots of mugles out today 

We took the 'Turn Right' sign seriously yesterday! 

Like to see this in action 

Lovely spot for a break. Damp-rid was too dump. 

Yeap. But too wet to sign unfortunately. T4TC 

Cool logbook and pencil! Does the jpb well 

Yeap, but damp and no logbook. T4TC 

A nice break from the bike ride 

Yes, have faith in the GPS coords . T4TC 

Looks like quite a well worn descent these days. T4TC 

Lucky find, before the clue made sense . T4TC 

Good quick find to start the day. T4TC 

Found on the wayback. Not sure why I had no luck the first time. T4TC 

Wow, fantastic views. Worth the effort. Cool logbook! T4TC 

A very pleasant spot for a rest. T4TC 

I must have gone passed this many many times. My GPS coordinates were about 15m out, although I had a pretty good idea what to look for . T4TC 

A common walk for me. I had to read the logs for help on this one . T4TC 

Needs a new logsheet. I filled the last space 

Yeap - patience and persistance pays off . I found a good log across the stream with a hand rail. 

It pays to read the logs  

Great view today, including a plane. Cache container description needs changing. 

Finally get a chance to read the art. Bring tweezers. 

Hint depends on direction, and is no longer correct anyway. This path is much more developed than last time I was here 

Difficult dodging muggles 

Certainly peaceful here 

Busy track today 

Very pleasant area 

My gps realy bouncing around here for some reason 

Can't see anyone walking below 

Forever waiting for this track to open again 

Still a popular place at this time of year 

So calm out there today 

It was a great day for kayaking across the channel today so I thought I'd pay this one a visit.

The good news is that the cache is still there - just buried a little more than intended but is now visible so shouldn't be too hard to find.

The bad news is that the (new?) land owners at the top are not very happy about people crossing the farm to access the track from above. The fishermen's track is no longer in use. Unfortunately this means the cache can now only be accessed from the sea - and that climb is very hard work!

Cheers, M@ 

Uphill ascent going well - faster than expected.

T4TC, M@ 

Very quiet and sunny today. Lucky break in the weather to be able to visit these very impressive falls. We heard that the stream can become unpassable at this time of year.

T4TC, M@ 

Found exposed and on its way down the cliff! Probably good timing to be rescued. I didn't have the pictures with me unfortunately (no coverage here!), but tried to place it according to the hint.
We're hiking anti-clockwise around the lake. Lucky to have a good break in the weather for a warm and sunny winters day.

T4TC, M@ 

Just checked - cache is still in place. Good luck
