    Doesn’t look like river-crossing weather for any of those main valleys for the next few days.
    Shearer and chainsaw like this.

    I wouldn’t go near the Macaulay in the weekend - too many idiots in there.

    Rivers are rising pretty fast as of about 2-3 hours ago. Wouldn't try anywhere that requires getting your feet too wet in a decent stream or river. Try the hills out the back of Twizel way, no rivers to worry about there. And hope your good on your wind calls, its meant to blow a tad.

    The forestry block on forest creek Station was 1080'd about a month ago. I've searched online but can't find any notifications for it.
