Deer hunting in Wilberforce Head

Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone has any info on animals in the upper wilberforce river. Up around the Lake Browning area. Any recommendations/places to not bother with?

Cheers!!

Or around Park Morpeth Hut

Reasonably difficult place to walk to, and there will be animals. I tramped the '3 passes' route between Christmas and NY, and a guy in one of the huts showed us a photo of two deer outside the hut you mentioned. We also saw a chamois but weren't really looking hard. Stunning country in there.

Quite a popular area for hunters at the head of the valley - both 4wds and heli trips. Aside from winter gets a bit of attention up to Browning Pass. But there's always a few deer about. A bit of chopper activity too with some veni recovery.

For the cost of beating the shit out of yr 4wd to go away up there before you start climbing.3 guys in a chopper wouldn't cost too much to fly to lake Browning.

Shoot a few Hinds

Word on the street is helicopter just done a waro run through head of styx / browning pass area, apparently 60 animals taken off the tops

I have driven as far as Gifford stream which is probably about as far as you can go driving up from the Wilberforce.
Still a few km up to park morpeth hut and Mt browning but stunning scenery and relentless sandflies at river level.
There's a wee flat clearing just before Giffords stream if you wanna camp, we had a convoy of fairly modified land cruisers last time I went there a few years back. You won't do it in a stock hilux some big boulders and some technical crossing depending on flow. Stunning country though.
