Nemesis: Thanks for checking on the cache on your trip back home Bitsprayer.[:)] It looks like the cache is no more.[:(] But, that's OK, as I was thinking of retiring it anyway (it wasn't in the most secure of locations, and it has been plundered once before). Thanks to all of you that found this cache over the years.[:D] Cheers, Donovan. [:)]

Geocache Description:

Location: About 15 km south of Oamaru, North Otago, New Zealand.

The cache is above ground, but invisible from 5 m.
The terrain is easy.


Initial Cache Contents:

* A tin of whole peeled tomatoes
* A combination cheese grater
* A roll of red electrical tape
* A partially complete variable voltage power supply kit (with instructions)
* A packet of 50 pipe cleaners (use them to make pipe cleaner animals)

Directions:

The cache (Accuracy If travelling north, you may get to the car park from Sate Highway 1 by turning east at about 1 km north of Waianakarua (at S 45°15.392' E 170°47.816' Elevation 32 m) and then continuing towards Kakanui for about 10 km. If travelling south, then follow the signposts south from Oamaru to Kakanui (turn left off State Highway 1 at about S 45°06.539' E 170°55.098' Elevation 62 m), after you arrive, continue for about another 5 km south along the coast.

There is a nice beach in All Day Bay, it has unusually soft golden sand and doesn?t disappear at high tide. Try not to flatten too much of the tussock as you walk. You should try to disguise you path as you leave the stash (bend some of the tussock back upright again).
