Take the track from tussock over to the Boyd to the river, then downstream from there. As @7mmsaum has said, there is much better hunting up the side valley’s both up and downstream when you hit the river. Did a circuit a few years ago now, went up the second valley downstream of the track, nice tussock, walked up the bush edge as it got dark, saw 2 and tipped one over. Camped on the spot and squealed at all night. Tipped another over first thing in the morning as I went through the saddle back into the tussock hut valley. From there an easy walk back to the hut.
Good luck with your trip
