There will be lots of little tendrils that will go into the ground, once they take grip. They quickly become roots and then if you pull the rest out they will still resprout.

Yea but it would kill the big ones killing that tree.
Not a long term fix obviously

Ongaonga got me on Saturday Dundee.

Steady on chaps Onga Onga is the local pub

There was the old German fella that used to live on the corner at Te Whaiti. He was a tough old hard case, always trolling up and down the roads with his rifle, I used to pig hunt with one of his Son's. I built a couple of campsites (mid eighties) in the area for a tourist venture, they had hot showers and flushing toilets supplied by Ram pumps fed by small dams. One was just past Skips, or Rodgers, which ever is furthest in from the Okahu Rd. Not that far from the Mangahika saddle and the other was at the Bull Pen down towards Central Te Hoe hut. Anyone know if they are still there??

Yup agreed Onga Onga is shit

GA The camp past Rodgers was still there about 5 years back when I was in the area.

They used to take me 8 days to build with a gang of 4 track cutters, they also had Hot water and a septic tank and field drain. The last nite was always hot shower nite, instead of the creek ,luxury. This was in winter, bloody cold tent camps.
