    N S track from Wairere falls is like a two lane highway. Pretty sure the rest is good and clear too. lots of traffic though.

    There have been several rescues on the North/South track...one of the latest was a guy sitting in the middle of the track and didn't know which way to go...a helicopter went in after dark to help him out.
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.

    A couple of years ago a dairy farmer shot up the track after morning milking for a quick hunt, was on the cellphone within two hours saying he was lost...didn't get out till late the next day as the police rescue unit got lost trying to get to him.
