This cache has been archived.

BaldEd: The area affected will not rank very high on the earthquake repair timetable so it is best to archive this cache. This brings to 7 the number of caches I have archived due the Canterbury earthquakes. [:(]

Geocache Description:

The above coordinate serves only to give a general idea of the whereabouts of this multi-cache. (It is the Garmin South Pacific database location for Christchurch city).


There are a number of wetlands in the Christchurch area. To reach this cache you will need to visit three of the city's northern wetlands to obtain details which will enable you to calculate the cache location that is located adjacent to another wetland area.

You will need a vehicle for transport between all four areas. To reach this cache will take you about half a day.

The wetland coordinates below are in no set order so you will need to do some route planning to avoid travelling back and forth unnecessarily. One of the wetlands (with 3 waypoints) has only one access. This access is at S43 26.108 E172 38.708.

Be sure to take some time out to feed the birds. There are BBQ's, playground equipment and a surfing beach near the car park closest to the cache location. Enjoy the day.

Data Collection: Take pen and paper to record your additional waypoints findings.

The Cache: Is a 2 litre camo-painted container situated at
