Peel Forest Hunting
Hi Guys
Just wondering if anyone could help me out. I'm looking at heading into the DOC land at Peel Forest and was just wondering where the best access point would be to get into some decent hunting looking for my first deer. I don't want secret spots but I also don't want to get blocked by waterfalls or vertical climbs :pissed off: So any info gratefully accepted.

Head up deer spur track up towards tge tops.... Gets u into good country for deer with chance of tahr
-

-
careful, some of the area is hunting prohibited and certainly closes for huntin 1st Oct.

Yeah thanks guys, should I head down the far side of Deer Spur if i'm gonna stay the night and then sidle around stalking/glassing or hit the gullies? Does anybody know what access is like at the other end of the park?

StrikerNZ and I were in there today, plenty of sign just off the track low down along towards Emily Falls/South Ridge. Apparently has also been two school camps of five year olds through there during the week, which may have contributed to us not seeing anything :yuush: :oh noes:

Probably better off going a we bit further savage and head to mespotamia.
Peel forest is open for hunters between may and october so as they dont clash with trampers.
Surely these ppl arnt going to go where you would be going
