The Alley Cat (Auckland) Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

status quo: As this cache has been out of action for too long and the non-active cache owner has not performed any maintenance, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace the cache sometime in the future, just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to un-archive it.

Geocache Description:

More fearsome than a bulldog on steroids, the dreaded Alley Cat roams the streets of Auckland's CBD. Find her at your peril.



Hidden amongst the backstreets and alley ways of Auckland are hidden some old-worldly gems of places far different from the slick and sleek shopfronts nearby. For this cache make your way to Durham Lane where you will reportedly find some of the oldest commercial buildings in Auckland. The pub nearby to this cache is a heritage building and is always busy on Friday nights and weekends.



The cache is micro sized (what else in an alley) and contains a logbook and small pencil at placement but I suggest you BYOP. The GPS signal is pretty weak in the area so might want to check the google map before you set off. Good luck with the hunt, beware of muggles and replace cache as you found it.
