Geocache Description:

Located in the South Waikato town, known for it's iconic sculptures and buildings.

Located close to a travellers stop, the shepherd watches all passerbys.

All good shepherds have a dog and sheep nearby, and this one is no exception.


Step up close, look all around.  Take your phone or camera with you and practice taking arty photos of the shepherd from many angles while searching. 

While circulating in the view of the many watching as they go by, concentrate around the back, at ground level.

HAPPY CACHING

And watch out for those muggles!

Please do read the hint to avoid being seen and compromising this 17 year old cache in such a very public location.  

Once you find the tube, take it away to open and fill out the log – don’t be seen by others. Please do put the cache back with just the end of the black tie emerging, to allow the next searcher to pull it out easily.

BRING YOUR OWN WRITING INSTRUMENT.
