This cache has been archived.

TheCur8or: As this cache has been out of action for too long, 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 unarchive it.

Geocache Description:

Geocache is back up and running - have tweaked the coordinates slightly. New owners coming soon too!





If a TB is left at this departure lounge, it will need a “StarGate-Label” to be transported to another StarGate-Cache. You will find these labels in a small ziploc bag inside the cache. Please log the destination into the logbook and in the logs at Geocaching.com, so that Stargate Command (NZ) receives the information correctly. Any TB with no label or destination address will be available for 'local duties' around NZ. Visitors are always welcome! Trading goods are available. Please take ONLY TB's WITHOUT a StarGate-Label.

If a TB owner doesn’t want their TB to travel the Stargate network, quickly contact me (hansen family 75) and I’ll revoke it's traveling orders. If the cacher dropping off the TB doesn’t want the TB to travel the Stargate network, include this information in the cache log (both paper and web). The TB will be assigned local support duty.

Anyone interested in establishing a Stargate TB Cache that’s at least 500 miles from any other Stargate TB Cache please contact Wakiwi P31115 or Drossdross P4079

Please note that a Zero Point Module (ZPM) is required to establish a wormhole to various destinations - this sometimes includes a second or third trip thus requiring a second ZPM and meaning additional delays.

Securing a ZPM may take several weeks or more!

If the TB’s commanding Officer (i.e. owner) does not want the TB to volunteer for these lengthy, long-distance missions, just contact dragonsinger and she will change the TB’s travel orders to redirect the TB to a local cache duties.



Please pick up only arriving Travel Bugs. That is, if you find a Travel Bug that is waiting for transport to another Stargate TB Cache, please leave it in the cache.

While this cache is themed to Travel Bugs, there still is a log and trade goods to welcome all geocachers.

The longevity of this cache is going to be directly linked to how well each cache finder rehides this cache (you’ll understand when you find it). Please take a few minutes to do a world-class camouflage job after your find.

This cache adopted and re-located in the Kapiti area Jan 2007. Many thanks to Saff & Tiger for the original cache. The cache is a clear plastic sistema container.
