Hi, wondering if anyone has been in the kaimanawas lately and is there sign/animals around? thinking around Oamaru, Boyd and Cascade huts, thanks.
Was in kaipo last weekend. Yes there was sign. There are 2 less animals though
My son was there on Saturday watching and videoing a mob of small pigs. No deer.
I've seen/spooked animals it those areas in just about every month of year so they are around. Shot bugger all of them mind you but that's on me :thumbsup:
Grass growth at the 1000m altitude is going gangbusters now. In a fortnight it will be hitting all that 1200m hunting ground.
Apparently a bunch of 'legends' thermalled 7 deer on the flats around Oamaru. Gut bags etc left around tracks
Name and shame!Quote:

Was in halfway between kiko and clements mill couple of weekends ago. Sign everywhere seen two stags and one hind and spooked another over 2 days.
Just came back from gold creek which is just downstream of Boyd. Lots of animals about, spring growth in the guts and gully’s is pumping and animals in prime condition!
I see the desert road is going to close for nearly 2 months!
