Hi ya twoshotkill ( I love your new name !!!!) , when we were in there in spring we shared the hut with 6 locals from ages 50-5 years old ( I kid you not ask Mucko) who came in on horse back from the galatea end. They were a bunch of rough looking Maoris... Dont judge a book by ther cover they were some of the nicest and hospitable people I have ever met hunting.
They never walk in only come in by horse back they couldnt belive we walked in thought we were nuts, and when we brought out the back country food for dinner they said and I quote " you cant eat that shit "! and gave us some of there awesome feed of real bangers and real mash!!!! AWESOME.
I also had a chat to a guy that brought his (suziki vatara type 4wd) from the top end apparently its only accessable by 4wd from the top end. I would assume its not for novice 4 wd drivers from the landscape that I saw . Also they were , how do I say this not townie 4wd , ie they had battle scars in there 4wd.
Happy I think you started it, but I could be wrong,
Fuck that was weird though it was a bit of a joke???
Cheer up chap!
Happy, with respect to what you said about there only being 4 directions N, S, E, W. The track is like a highway with lots of fairly steep-sided valleys that run into it. It we split up into groups of two (which seems to be how we are looking) we not struggle to find room for us all if we plan carefully the night before and stick to that plan (ie. if you aren't supposed to cross that that ridge, don't bloody cross it). I'm confident we won't be tripping over each others toes if you do decide to join us in the end. Moreover, the chances are as we get closer to the date people will pull out, I mean, we can't all get time off work or not have any commitments on that weekend. No trouble if you aren't keen to come, but let what I have said be reassurance to those who are still keen to come, but want to make sure all is well.
On another note, for those who haven't had much time out and are thinking about how chilly it will be. Be warned, it will most likely be very cold and quite probably wet. If you don't have the right gears, you'll feel the cold (and possibly the wet). But shit, its not the arctic. Come with a good spirit and be prepared and it will be all good.
Yeah nah bro
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt.
Is ok that Im more interested in going to have a good time then too hunt?
VIVA LA HOWA
Probably not the right place to say this but I just jumped into bed and then looked on the wall amoung pig tusk and horns and saw 4 necklaces full of beads asome small bags of beads and the purple heart. It made me think of everything I have done but seeing that purple heart which is for completing treatment just made me extremly happy and its a great feeling I havent felt like this in a long time but Im keen to meet you lot and have to be thankful for the cancer or I would never have met you lot and its been great to have gotten to know some of you guys. Thanks NZHS
