    Managed to get away for a couple of hours for a look at least. Not sure what the water is usually like but it was milky, flowing reasonably rapidly and I could hear the odd rock rolling about. Drove up as far as Boulder Creek where there was another vehicle parked up so just had a smooch around the rivers and streams and pointed the binoculars round some on the hills and clearings. Saw some evidence of others success in the car park, with some pig fur and bones.

    Will be going back there. A nice wee valley.

    Pigs have hair GM.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Do you mind? I'm trying to mildly infuriate the pig hunters on here!

    Really nice place though, just about planning a weekend trip back there, along with fixing a few things at the sister-in-laws.

    There are a few things that need fixing up here GM. If you run out of things to do that is.

    My old welder lives up there now, essential equipment really. The thing weighs as much as I do. Was very handy when the round bale feeder was nursed back with 5mm of twisted weld connecting it to the tractor. Fair few other bits of machinery could do with attention.
