No way we were crossing at Totara Point the river was blasting through, even an other group with more serious looking trucks stopped there too.

We just made it out with some very experienced guys, I kept adding up in my head the cost of the gear I had and would lose if my truck got stuck and started rolling down the river.

That's what happens when the locals say shell be right and plan things months in advance all keen to get in and make the most of time off work and leave granted by the missus.

Respect the rivers.
