    its how these things go
    the gate is put in but never closed
    then the gate starts getting closed
    the gate then gets locked
    no access anymore

    gas torches are big and messy, the ones that do it up here use 18v makita angle grinders and cut off disks

    I do enjoy when small sticks and or super glue finds its way into the locks key part

    Yeah, understand that...but in cases like this that kinda response just helps validate the decision to close access, imo. Can help confirm the view that those who used/want to use the place are just arseholes ..... ?

    As @Tahr said earlier, the silence from the various advocacy organisations (and public entities) is disappointing, if not unsurprising. And its nearly always easier to stop stuff from happening in the first place, rather than trying to reverse it once it has happened. Maybe crowd funding for legal advice as to what the options might be (or NZDA members asking their executive what their advice said) ?

    I agree 100%. It got to be a lot easier to try and keep the land in Crown ownership, than to get it changed back once it's been transferred to private owners.

    While speculation about vandalism of locks that currently aren't in place is probably not in our interest, the facts seem to be that the only illegal action by anyone so far is the construction of gate structures on a Crown owned piece of land.

    The Crown does appear to have given out a song sheet to the various interested (and some supposedly independent) bodies involved, as it is almost inconceivable that they could all be so closely aligned by some random arrangement of the stars.....

    Seems to be a government department but what its maori language means is incomprehensible to me.

    Outdoor Access Commission renamed apparently, interestingly appears to be involved in this case a reduction in outdoor access for the public.
    My take on it anyway.

    Am I reading that correctly?? Definitely crown owned land for the road access, at the moment they can't do a bloody thing to stop public access and there is no real reasoning that it is going back to the Maori trust apart from back in the late 1800s there was no access routes or roads over the land (like most of the undeveloped country in that era).

    Who was the “former owner” of the Waipakihi Road land ?
    I had thought it was taken from the Tongariro National Park or equivalent at the time.
    This is the only piece if land that is proposed to be returned to “the former or adjacent land owners”.
    That strongly suggests that the adjacent land owners are distinct from the former land owners and that its transfer to the Lake Rotoaira Forest Trust is not inevitable.
    As @Tahr says, there is plenty of scope for legal debate but this may enable the road land to be transferred to secure publuc ownership and access.

    this post shows a lockd gate - presumably up to the hanger?
    Was BINGO the name of the farmer or the dog?

    Gates are not locked but road has been renovated and all the pot holes are fixed to native .As from there even a good 4x4 will have issues getting to the river after the last rain.

    At least something good has come out of this debacle. Mind you, the pot holes did a good job of keeping out civvies looking for a spot to camp just off SH1. An increase in that won't help.
