Thread: Whirinaki hunting

Have been in there 3 times, only saw one deer and MISSED the dam thing , also a few goats around and heaps of rabbits, if I ever go again will pack in the air rifle. To many A T V`S , uts , and Swedish bikers, definitely be a fly camp way up in the bush via the Katamaringi track.

Maybe its really washed out now there's a sighn saying the roads closed now

yea nah the signs been up for a while since before mid october ....its still walkable.....cant see DOC fixing it anytime soon or ever but thats probably a good thing means only the keen people go up there

Hey Anthony, how is the road in there, tried to have look last time I was down there with my focus but a tree across the road. In on main road then onto south road I think, now have a 4x4 and if you got in there with a camper should be ok for my caravan, have never been in there but would like to have look.

Ok, Have checked out my Mitsi and I can sleep in the back with the seats folded up, so will base camp at okahu and car fly camp up south road just to have look in there. Coming into Piropiro flats, as you past the farm on the right just at end have seen some goats around there.
