You could hear the screaming by both Joe and his passengers. Funny when he flew us into the Kaimanawas and told him about it.The Mangatera had big deer but the best way was to whistle down there from Ruahine and on the left hand side were some lovely clearings. Only place I have ever seen deer go bug eyed and wide eyed as you appeared out of the blue.The dwarf rates it at 9.5/10 because it does not mention him other than his alter ego on pg 209.Got smashed many a time walking up from Ironbark to Otukota via the river even when it was too high.A fantastic contribution to the NZ hunting history.
