Thompson's track in the Kaimais is the most accessible hunting spot I know of. It is a 4wd track which is in good shape, especially if its been dry - when I was up there last I even toyed with the idea of driving my 1.5l little nissan sentra up there (I don't have a 4wd). You could drive most the way up and once you get to the top, its about a 15min walk (on a good track) to a big clearing. Like any place that is easy access, it gets pretty hammered; but in saying that, it still produces. I don't know what its like in the roar though, you could PM spook to ask him, he is a local and lives at the start of the track. If you are lucky, it will be that place that everyone who hunts it will say "Hell know, go to that place in the roar? that's like suicide, if its busy outside of the roar, it will be super busy during it". Sometimes a popular spot will be left alone in the roar because everyone goes further afield, or thinks it will be over-populated. Its worth looking into.
I hope you have a good roar in spite of the mobility issue.
PM me if you have anymore questions about it, but I've only been up there once, so I'm no expert.
Have a read of this too
