    I went into the Tangihuas a few times a couple of years back, plenty of goats, the directions given by ZQlewis are pretty spot on, get a few ridges west from the main track.

    Try door knocking some farmers on the west side with a box of beers, off of Omana Road, plenty of goats around there.

    I've heard that you can drive right up to the repeater via that road, but I think the gates are locked.

    I always went in from the end of Tangihua Road.

    Same here. I have only gone in from the Tangihua rd end across the doc / private land access.
    No reason there should not be goats on the south side, just note that I think there are some hunting exclusions around the lodge.
    Also some land owners are rounding up goats and don't welcome hunters like they used to.

    If you go in from the Lion's Lodge is there anywhere to park for a couple of nights?

    I was guessing the same would go for the lodge up there.

    I'm thinking about a long weekend bow hunting mission in a few weeks, let me know what the goat/pig numbers are like.

    Should be fine then. Heard of child's road on the north east being used. But that might be the place where yah call up the farmer.
