    Harry Max ; Lake Creek is pretty baron , animal wise , Cotters has plenty of cover for a giant to lurk in , but the prevailing wind blows down these particular valleys all day and night , so it makes it difficult to choose a camp site.
    You can fly in there

    Heck, yeah it looks like amazing country but I've not been hearing very good things about the numbers at all.... harassment by heli operators etc

    Appreciate the info mate. Did you end up having it for a roar period previously or have you just hunted it in general?

    doesnt the ballot over ride the no fly zones for this purpose? i may be wrong

    They are different blocks mate. Block 31 is 'Cotters' up dingle burn. Block 38 is 'Cotters creek' up the Hunter

    Random question here....

    There is not a ton of information on some of these blocks - Is it bad form/edict to share information about them on this forum/online?

    Personally I don't expect to hunt that block again and would tend towards wanting to share information so folks have some more info to work with in future.

    Of course not, share away it’s one of the good parts of this place.

    pretty sure old mate had it for 2023, an you got it for 2024... could be wrong though, as this thread is old.
