    Call Chris Crosse.

    It's a terrible spot. Waste of fuel.

    Unless they're ELR spotlighting I'm not thinking there's going to be pressure off the highway.
    You're not thinking of Tataarakina?

    Hi guys, ive no concerns over Chris, never met him but his reputation is high on here so ive no qualms there.....the block is the Kopitonui, it borders the Rangitaki conservation area to the north & the highway to the east

    just wanted to know if any forum members have hunted that block and have any info on it....cheers

    Hunted up to the Upper Ohane. Great country. Expecting the Horse Paddock will be similar. It's a big block. Lots of mature native around the area. Very nice.
