+rediguana Posted September 17, 2002 Posted September 17, 2002 Some talk ensued recently via email, and mention was made of having a cache event up here http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=11803 Nothing more has been said, but I thought I'd post here, and see what sort of interest there would be in getting a few together to slog up the hill, stay the night, claim the cache and come back down the next day. Sometime in January perhaps whilst everyone is one holiday? Perhaps we could have a BBQ sometime in Chch too once I get back??

+BigNick Posted September 17, 2002 Posted September 17, 2002 As it was my idea, I should say that I am keen. Need to set a date so Bernadette can arrange time off work if required (she works 2 weekends out of the month) I have sent a email to "The Mechanic" to see how much space there is at the summit, but I have not heard back from him... will keep you posted. Cheers Nick. Quote
+ssarc Posted September 17, 2002 Posted September 17, 2002 Sounds great, we would need to know dates in advance so leave can be booked early. Sometimes we have to do nightshifts etc but that would be our tough luck. Quote

Yes, not to steal the idea from Nick, I just thought we should get discussing it so we can nail down a date ASAP for everyone who needs to organise around work! Cheers Gav Quote

+ssarc Posted December 29, 2002 Posted December 29, 2002 Well January is almost upon us, has anyone come up with any dates or ideas yet. One idea from another cacher was to do the paraparanoia cache in golden bay- it has yet to be found. The only downfall is that its a big climb to get there- approx 1100 metres up Ruth and I will try to get there in Jan/ Feb sometime anyway. Quote

Man time has flown by! We'll probably organise an event here in Chch at some stage over summer. Haven't picked a location yet, but Nick and I have talked some over potential activities. I will be heading up to Ruby Bay a few times over summer, and would definitely be keen to do Paraparanoia. Have you any dates in mind?? Cheers Gav Quote
+ssarc Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 No definite dates as yet, Ruth starts nightshift soon so will be out of action until around 7 January- possibly do the trip during the following week. It would depend on the weather- I'd hate to climb all that way to be clagged in by ****ty weather. Then again the weathers always good up here Quote

Thats cool. That might fit in quite nicely with me. Hehe last time I drove over to Takaka, we couldn't see the top of the hill! And it was misty over the road pass as well! But I must say, I also had some fantastic weather for 4 days seakayaking early this year. Cheers Gav Quote
