Hey guys anyone know if pureoras been 1080d yet
Call DOC, they will tell you who the operator is, can't see it been done with the weather conditions. They will want at least 4 days of clear conditions.
@tetawa cheers
Prefeed is scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday this week.
Is that all the pureoras ie hauhangaroa, rangitoto north block south block Piropiro ??

Thanks for the head sup as I was heading in there this week if I can.
Just off the phone and got the following information.
There are going to be 2 pre-feed drops with the first one scheduled this week to be followed up about 5 days later with the second drop. After the pre-feeds they are looking to drop 1080 about the 10 day mark so probably another couple of weeks before it turns to shit. I was informed this is the last drop they will be having in that range unless they find TB which for long term is great news!
They are dropping in the entire Pureora range including east of Piro Piro campsite and I will update this once I receive an email from them with more detail.
Looks like Rangitoto will be there as well.
Time to get your hunts in people.
Just talked to DOC, only the South Pureroa block, nothing North HW30.
Hey as promised if anyone can moake more sense of this then good luck.
Talked to the guy from TB Free and he said yup the whole range is being done but I for the life of me can't find anything on the website.
This is the link and if anyone wants to enlighten this person then great, cheers.

everything except a small block east of titiraupunga (arataki road) and north of the highway from benneydale to mangakino according to this
At least they don't bullshit about why they're dropping the shit on this.
It is all about using up their budget. The test lines that the ran yielded a massive zero coons, but they decided to do it anyway. They were pre-feeding before and during the roar.
They must have a great budget for poison this year when you look at what the whole country is going to cop.
But not enough to maintain bridges huts and tracks [emoji107]Quote:

When no animals live in the national parks we won't need bridges, tracks and huts.
Any idea why they leave the blocks/sections in the middle?Quote:

Only bit left is the northern end that got smashed twice last year due to high rainfall after first application. Ngaroma got hit pretty hard too last year. Getting harder to find 1080 free applied land to hunt these daysQuote:

The deer I've seen and shot over spring - summer in the Pureora north block weren't in top condition and there was no shortage of tucker.Quote:

With the week end forecast it'll be a popular place.
Can anyone give me an idea if Ketemaringi Track area would be 1080'd? Considering going in this weekend
it is on the agenda.....whether its been done yet i dont know the weather could have put the poo poo on it till later call DOC...i would go anyway, always a good time to hone those stalking skills and see how close you can getQuote:

if you do not have a GPS take a map and compass
Went in there for 3 days a few months back with a mate, setup with GPS, compass & map. Agreed it is easy to get bushed if not careful.
weathers looking good for you , fly camping? had some trail cams set up off the southern end of the kete showing good numbers (in summer tho)was down there earlier this year and spooked i big hind not far from the flats so they are there but very wary

will probably head down a couple of times once to set the camera and then a month later to stake it out ..... so can alway let you know when im going if you want to find some good spots not too far from the campsite. admittedly you do have to push thru some shit to get there
Contemplating heading in this weekend.. Wonder if it's too soon since the 1080 drop in June. Hmm, need some more solo spots.. Any recommendations??
was it only done in June? I thought it was later than that but could be that i just misread it haha.
