Thread: Kaimanawa Forest Park

The catchment Sth of Waipakihi is the waipahihi which is also moari. I seem to recall it was crown land and exchanged for some maori land bordering tongariro nat park. A helisika base on waipakihi rd would give cheapish heli access into waipahihi valley as well as waipakihi and sthrn kaimanawa and upper ngaruroro and rangatikie catchment ecology ck etcso I feel there is a business plan there and I also think DoC would be aware of this along with tuwharetoa. However the present vehicle access should not be denied to hunters and trampers as a result so some lobbying of parliamentarians is called for asap IMO. This jackup has obviously been in the covert pipeline for quite a while.
