Welcome fallow 35 cal shooter,
I run the somewhat smaller 358 Win in a lever action.
Question for you , Any idea how long to walk up Thompsons from your side to the Nth Sth track. I have done the Waikato side a number of times in the 1990's.
NB I said walk and that's for 2-3 guy's in their 50's and in winter with it slippery, or is this just not even a recommended option.
Hunting mate just south of you at Whakamarama has done the loop walks from there, did see 1 and some sign but it's tight off track over summer.
Just thinking of a 3 day weekend and a hut stay.
