Geocache Description:

This cache is placed on the Start/End of the Meridian Wind Sculpture Walk in Evans Bay.

This cache brings you to the beginning of the awesome Meridian Wind Sculpture walk that continues from here around to the other end of Cobham Drive and consists of five sculptures that utilize the wind that is iconic to Wellington.

These artworks include the Zephyrometer, where the cache: "What's the point?" is located.

You will have some amazing views over Evans Bay while you search for this cache.


This cache is also at the end of the Wellington International Airport runway. While retrieving this cache, you may be muggled by some very unusual muggles, as I was when I placed this cache....


The closest Sculpture is "Pacific Grass , by the artist Kon Dimopoulos. It was installed on the Cobham Drive roundabout in 2001. At night, the sculpture takes on a new live, when it is illuminated and takes on a enchanting form, as seen below.

This cache is located at a very high muggle zone, and thus, care must be taken while retrieving and putting the cache back.

The Cache is a 200ml camouflaged sistema
