    Good use for night vision goggles!
    Also good job they had there beacons on them. They could have been buried as most would take it off once in camp.
    It's all fun and games till Darthvader comes along
    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.

    hats off to these guys for getting in there to do the trapping & great to hear they survived and got out. Where's the recognition & thanks from DOC & Sage ????
    Cant speak highly enough of the SLH guys and their rescue efforts.
    Need a few trap lines set in Wellington to get rid of some of the resident ferrets & weasels that infest the Beehive.

    What a cool thing to do volunteering to trap stoats. Lucky guys too. I'd buy them a beer if they walked into our pub.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
