    Lyell Hut May 2021

    Malcolm Prouting of Station Air flew us into Leyll Hut.


    Set up for the shot,Sako 7MM REMMAG 162 A-MAX

    Bull down.

    Heading to the Hut.

    Possum stole my Chocolate the first night.

    I had hoped the caffeine may have killed him as he didn't return the second night, but no joy as he return the third night.

    Im not a fan of Snow.



    "You need to check the front of the Car" i was told.

    Neat story and photos and tubby-looking possum. Is the hare factory-fitted or an aftermarket accessory.

    Nice trip. Done that in the summer months years ago and walked out shooting the whole way down to Lake Stream, when tahr numbers were high. Great country
