Geocache Description:

The cache is located in a small urban reserve in Nelson.

Update 4/8/25: Please place securely back between the rock holders and recover well with camo.

Update: 22/4/24 Cache has been moved from original hide to a newer, hopefully safer, one. Check the hint for help. Extreme stealth required. Replace natural camo so cache can not be seen.

Original Page:

If you take a moment and read about Paddy, all will be revealed.

The cache is a short distance from the car park and 1 metre off the footpath. WARNING: Watch out for muggles from above; therefore, please rehide the cache so it can not be seen from ABOVE. GPS reception is very good to within 10 to 15 metres from the cache site. After that you just never know. The cache site will offer a great view of Nelson's summer playground and surrounding area. The cache is a 400ml camo-painted screw top container. It initially contained a log book, pencil, one 'signature' item and numerous trading items.
