A couple of years ago a community group took on the project of doing up the old "A-Frame" hut at the top of the road, all of them volunteers and they did a really great job of turning a structure that was buggered into a nice clean hut that would actually be nice to stay in.
With in 3 months it had smashed windows and graffiti again, and some muppet decided he could drive his quad bike up and over the hut judging by the tyre marks on the iron.

I get that all users of the park have just as much right as any other park user to be there..... but sometimes common sense isn't as common as we'd like and a few will ruin it for the rest of us.

Yeah its been kept reasonably tidy to be fair
I'd have to disagree with the 4x4 clubs comment though.
The 4x4 club took traps up there after being asked to buy Mauri oho, that is all.
The damage has been done buy fuckwits in there lifted surfs and old rangers who think 4x4 drivers
We had the wetest winter on record and still they thought it was fun to destroy the track.
Personally I think the road should be shut.
