Thread: Any ex NZ forest service fellas here?

Found the odd track up there, but am talking the late 70's.

As an aside, a workmate's dad was the dozer driver who put in Takapari road. Once he had finished he was told by P Nth head office it would be several weeks before they would get a low loader up there to return the dozer to his Dannevirke base.

So he drove it North along the main range for about 2 kms then down the least steep ridge into the west branch of the Tamaki river and out to the road end. There's still the odd bit of evidence that something big went down that ridge...
