    Where I stay when Hunting or just wanting a weekend away

    And yes that is a tram in the middle of no where.
    I don't get to go there offed as the property is land lock and the neighbouring farmer (who just happens to be French) Does not allow us access to take our vehicles but on rear occasions we drive in without telling. Anyway working on getting a road in of some sort very soon. Once that's done I'll be down there all the time.
    Its been a mission trying to get access

    For reference that is the old Newmarket Tram 101

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    It looks fantastic but for me there would be two issues

    1. Its over the hill in Takaka and
    2. the price, it would be difficult for me to live there and earn enough to pay for it with my skills

    I wouldn't want it as a weekend place but a full time place.

    Awesome home away from home!
    I would love something similar, ... but not sure the wifey shares the same thoughts...
    ...Nelson is a bit of a drive from Auckland.

    He won't grant you access? Whatta prick... I'm not up to date on NZ land ownership law but here you can be granted access to any piece of land simply by saying you want to open up a business ie. register a firewood company on your parcel and plant a few gum trees.
