That sounds as though if you hid him under a fern he would pass as a garden gnome BRADS.

Hope you got your North Island accent sorted VC,and hope the weather plays the part when you guys come up.

What inspired ya to walk all the way up there?Apart from the view

Ditch the tracks next time mate and walk down the leading ridges providing the wind is in our favour.or from the top there drop into the head water of the rokai and stalk the bush around there im sure you will knock one over that way.Nice pics just another typicle day in the Ruahines aye!!.

My plan was to go further East from the Ruahines but could see the Wairarapa weather playing its part at the other location so headed here instead. I haven't been to the the A Frame for years so I thought I would stretch my legs. I knew where the better option was but felt the urge to climb to the top.

Last time I climbed to the A Frame it looked like this.

Bloody good climb alright . I headed down that track a couple weeks ago. Was hard to see over the Leatherwood and weather closed in . So retreated back to the hut and watched the rugby ;p

Fark that i'm prehistoric, I sent a text from the top and the Mrs got it when I got home. It would of been quicker to tell her when I walked in the door. Next mission the Ridge or further East

The boy wanted me to go for a hunt again.So after he mowed the lawns we were off.

He walked up 'Dry Creek'. I was on the ridge too the right of the creek and saw him disapear past the creekbed in the centre of pic.


The wind was swirlling all over the place. Possum trapper then climbed the left rige before coming back down via "Rokai" track.

I carried on through the bush and came down into the next creek over the right ridge.



The wind was in my face next minute blowing up the rear.



Another walk now back to work.
