    Chris Crosses old Ahimaniwa blocks

    Hi all, anyone know who has the lease for Chris’s old blocks in the Ahimaniwa now? Can they still be booked?

    I’d hate to know how much Helisika are charging people to go in there

    May pay to double check that. I heard there was another outfit leasing them but I can't confirm.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Ok. I could be wrong about that.

    Not Chris's old blocks but interesting:

    https://www.ahimanawa.co.nz

    Lakeland used to have these blocks.

    As an aside. I got a price pre roar from Helisika to fly into the Back Ridge area by myself:

    $2020 incl GST for the H500 (max 400kg payload) + DOC land fees of $50.60 each.

    That's a shocking price

    Chris's Ahimanawa blocks have been leased to a consortium of hunters as private Hunting blocks.

    So that's not split between however many people in the chopper?

    Correct. I asked Helisika for a fee for just myself. I often hunt alone.
    Chris would always work to get me in with a back load and I was always flexible to work in with him coming out. It was great.
