Thread: Ruahine ranges

Hi Can anyone help me out with a access point that is safe enough to leave a ute and go for a strol in the Ruahines my freezer is getting low

I have never been broken into at the Rangiwhahia car park, and can't remember ever having seen broken glass. Been there hundreds of times (hoping to shoot a deer up there one day ) But I guess there are exceptions.

Kashmir Rd seems ok too.

I've had more trouble at the Sth East spots.

Where do you want in?

Any were in the southern ruahuines Loveday road,tamaki west,Kumeti all safe to leave a vehicle ive hunted those spots heaps and never had a drama and never heard of anyone having one.

When ???? and were.

Thanks guys

Not worried where just wanna do something different than hunting farms and iv never shot a red deer and with a baby due in 7 weeks!! thought id better get out sooner rather than later. But i had heard some car parks are bad news but noone would tell me what ones.
Would be keen to tag along if anyone was heading up in the future.

go up coppermine creek, it's a bit rough but plenty of little clearings and there should be plenty of silly spikers out and about at the moment. Bit of a drive from your place though you could stop in and see Trav on your way home.

Cheer bro will prob take him

Reviving another old thread...'
Is it too early to start looking at the tamaki road end and up in the ruahines ?
Been up a couple of tines , but no deer shot , alittle bt of sign.
Im a novice , have not dropped a deer yet but been hunting rabbits for a few years..

I have never had a problem at the Tamaki car parking area, I stopped there heaps of times with no issues.... yet?
