Geocache Description:

This is a fun cache to celebrate the 10th anniversary of geocaching and in particular the cache placement by Kevin Anderson (GC46) placed on 26th May 2000 - New Zealand's oldest and now one of the World's longest surviving placements.

This cache was placed exactly 10 years to the day of GC46's placement. It is quite near to private property (who are aware of the cache) and there is no need to go on their land. If you need to access a gate or two, remember to leave them as you find them as livestock is often around.

To see details of the original "Geocache by Kevin Anderson (Wellington)" click Here. However, the placement of this particular cache is in a random spot in a miniature forest. Being a 'clone cache' of the original any similarities are therefore purely intentional. Although over time I also hope to add my own features for your amusement.

In celebrating 10 years of geocaching in New Zealand, could trade items please keep to a theme of being at least 10 years of age? Remember, this cache is purely for fun and is not the 'adventure' type of my usual placements. PS, be warned though, watch out for the "Custodian of the Cache" and please don't disturb him if he happens to be on his tea break!
