    Since growing up around there I never bothered applying for one. But since I have been away for 5.5 years now I'm missing those mountains.
    First time applying and missed out.

    Probably not much help Jock but I think I have the Rod & Rifle mags at home with the Wapiti blocks by Simon Gibson (not related) and the Edith is in there.

    Happy to send it down for you if you want?

    First time heading into these blocks. Drew Dark River first period. Would really appreciate any info on this block as I have already been reading that it is a very difficult block to hunt. First time entering the ballot, so one from one, chomping at the bit to get in there!!

    I had 6 years between pulling a block and then being successful again, and now have had 3 in 3 years!
