Ha ha! It was the blokes at Taumatatahi at the trailhead to Trains Hut that basically threatened me. I asked very nicely if I could park my truck with them for a couple of days, they said if I hunted on their land they would damage it. Interesting response, thankfully not one I hear very often. I did of course find a brilliant bloke the next valley over and ended up spending 4 days there. I asked about the Taumatatahi blokes and suffice to say you mustn't assume that everyone out there is welcoming... some have a reputation for never being so, just because.

Lol. Far too many locals believe that doc land is their land. Eventually they'll do that sort of stuff to the wrong person.
