    Mangatainoka 1

    Hey guys heading into mang 1 with Helisika for a look first week of jan. Having never been into this block before any advice would be appreciated by those who have been before. I understand some of the bush is shitty from the storm a few years back but places to avoid because of this would be a great start to save time scouting. Cheers

    Which block is that one?

    The one at the junction of the Mohaka & Mangatainoka or the other private block up the Mangatainoka bordering DOC land?

    I’ve only hunted the from the Mangatainoka Hut on DIC land.

    A SHIT LOAD of Ongaonga in there. I found the bush a bit tight but plenty of slips, clearings and while this was a few years back we were just bumping into animals everywhere. Great trip

    is this the small creek right by the hut? or the mangatainoka river? roughly how far are you walking from hut to get to rock?
    cheers
