    I had half a dozen rabbits and a magpie by tee time.

    Shot a hind on a slip up the Makaroro at 8:30 NYE...but she fell onto a ledge I couldn’t access even after 5 hrs spent in total trying.

    Lived up there 1979/80 for a time doing possums. Some difficult steep terrain in there for sure. But some nice slip shooting too. Good stuff.

    Did you find a lot of the ridges tough to access?
