There is water at the first camp in the saddle on the way up. Push through the bush a bit and there is (was?) a bit of pipe in a seep. Just before you break onto the tops there is another little camp site on the left, but as scotty says, no water there. The next water is in the creek on the right as you go up the centre ridge. Best to drop into it towards its headwaters from nearly at the back ridge. Once you are at the trig its pretty self evident where you should hunt. During the roar ducking off the track 2/3 of the way up to your right works ok.
Just keep going back until you have sussed it. Rushing from area to area in the hope of stumbling onto one seldom works. Get to know one place well.
The Waipakahi is ok too but you are walking past a lot of deer to get there.
