Thread: Wanaka Ballot 2019

Cheers @Cowboy06 - according to DOC the hut is owned by Hunter Valley Station, but not planning to spend much time in Hunter Valley proper. Lake Creek is the side valley with the lake. Cotters itself does not have lake. Both “creeks” on Topo maps show a track on TR for access. But from experience some of these side creeks are pretty gnarly and tough going. Will chopper in and trying to decide best way to move from Lake Crk to Cotters or vice versa. Either via Hunter Valley or via tops at the end of head basins. Might have a spare spot in the party as one of the guys may have to drop out.

I’d be keen. I found out tonight our roar block bids were not successful.

I was looking at the wrong area I thought you were meaning cotters flat up the dingle not on hunter valley, I know the Cochrane’s up the hunter, went to school with digby and Andrew. They still lease or manage it after they sold it to some overseas people a couple years ago. I’ve flown up and down there looking at strips too. Nice country.
