First Solo Hunt Coming Up
I'm planning a day trip in the Kaimais this weekend. I'm thinking of parking at Ngamuwahine Lodge, heading up track to a place i'm comfortable getting off the beaten path.
This is my first mission on public land; i've got a toppo app, power bank and compass to help me from getting lost.
Any tips or info anyone can pass on to help prevent me from making a balls up of it?

To sum it all up, i'm going to take @

I think i'll point out this is all a learning adventure for me and i'd rather see a few deer running away than be ready to shoot in an instant. Although I'll have one in the chamber at half cock (safety on) walking as slowly, quietly and aware as I can be.
(i'll also have a phone, powerbank, headlamp and PLB for emergencies)
I looked into PLBs and was put off at the price of the buggers, but found they're readily available for rent at $15 a day almost nationwide; which is music to my skint ears.
Thanks for the help team.
$5/day from trek n travel, only helpful if your in Hamilton though
