    I went there last week. Saw 2 deer and got barked at by the last one. This was at piropiro flats campground but as mentioned every man and his dog turns up. Bloody cold. Minus 5 over night.

    That will help. The further away from the camp and the lodges you go the less likely you are to encounter people so that is I'm going to do next time.

    Your welcome to come down and set up camp with us if you can get a few days off . Will be mid October we have a well trained camp mother and I will be trying to put a young fulla onto his first deer (if he can ditch school)

    I'll be free one of the weekends if that's when you are going. So I will let you know if I am free.

    We got to within 10 metres of the first one.

    Let me know if you head back down before then and I will flick you a map with all the old tracks on it and point you to a couple of likely spots away from the crowds

    Hi Scotty, where did you get the old maps from? I'd be really keen to get my hands on a copy

    Pm me your email,
    This is one that has all the old tracks marked on in felt tip before GPs became the norm I have gpsed some of them and they are pretty accurate some don't exist bulldozed for the cycle track and some have become part of the cycle track
