    Probably gone down in the dark so he can spotlight his way in.
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.

    Home again, well here are the events that unfolded I could not find army road campsite ended up at the road end so I turned around and had another crack at finding it, still drove past it and ended up staying at Clements clearing. had a very rude awakening at 4am when a deer caught its foot on one of the guy ropes on my tent only to send the frigging thing down on top of me and I know it was a deer because the fuckin thing squealed as it did it. Hunted from sun up till just before 2pm when I slipped twisted my ankle and ended up pulling the pin and coming home. Going to try again later in July after the school holidays

    I didn't actually realise I had photographed the kaimanawa wall until I googled it when I got home as it had me wondering all the way home if it was what I thought it was, I don't even know the story behind it, first I ever heard of it was when I was a member of the other forum and saw it mentioned in a post and have never seen any pictures of it in the past or googled it as I was never curious, now I have to go and do another search and read the story of it.

    No story.
    It is a natural rock formation. Dozens of them in the area. That particular one is just a bit more symmetrical than others.
