You could.. Before the last cyclone... Not sure now... We might just have to go for a recce

Sounds good, somebody else may have some current info on the track conditions.

I'm keen and a relative youngy at 66. Will have my mate's young fella (10) with me. He's got a few young bloke problems related to ADHD, but for some reason listens to me, so I help out a bit with him. Anyway, he's raring to go and has promised to behave and would be rapt to be in such august company. He's a bright lad, and really wants to become a hunter. Hope this is okay with all. He'll be my responsibilty and knows he'll be going home if he doesn't behave. Anyone against, please let me know and I'll drop out, no hard feelings.

Keneff that is exactly the sort of young fellah that needs to come. All power to your right arm.

Thank Biggun, Paddy and Rushy, But I'm not big and not scary, just old. Except sometimes to myself when I find myself in a dodgy place above a big drop

it would be great to see a 10yr old there, but @Rushy you are not to teach him the benefits of Waikato

Didn't think Waikato had any benefits, @ONYVA, apart from reducing the volume of that putrid river

You can use Waikato to poison your enemies

Thanks to all you guys who accept what I've asked. I think it's a big thing to be able to get hold of these young kids and try to channel them into a constructive, happy life BEFORE they run off the rails, and this is something he's really interested in, so that will make it easier for him. He is a good, likeable kid and I'll be keeping a close eye on him.
Cheers,
Ken
