    Search the apple or google store for nz topo 50. Great app created by a chap in hutt valley. It's got DoC open hunting area overlays too.

    On one of the updates the DOC overlay disappeared, but the next update it was back.

    Question on app use. When in the bush do you have it on flight mode to save the battery?
