    hi team , keen to hunt 3 days eastern Ruahine for meat , no trophy needed just venny and pest control . What would be more productive , Longview area or Sunrise access? open to suggestions.
    Recent trip to Kaimanawa , we were fast packing(no gun) Makorako and spooked 12 sika in 30 hours . Will come south for the reds.

    Id take sunrise at the moment, longveiw thrashed buy hunters at this time of year sunrise track gets you to the top in a less hunted area with good access north and south on the tops.
    The slips behind sunrise never lack an animal morning or night.
    Just be aware there will be lots of trampers about
