Thread: Quick hunting trip kawekas to backridge

Here's a few photos of our quick hunting trip over to back ridge hut. We shot one
spiker heading up the ridge at 8:45pm gutted and took all the meat off the animal and headed onward to back ridge hut. We reached the hut at 1.00am in the dark and hung the meat in the meat safe. The next morning we tieded the meat up and packed it our packs ready for the horrible haul out. Back ridge hut we took the lighter brown SikaCleaning up the meat

Nice!!! And great to see appropriate summer footwear

Nice one! Photos look mint.

Good stuff wot caliber did u use

Nice work

Good work Josh.

From memory It's a good walk into Back Ridge from Makahu .... probably too far for this fat boy to walk anymore.

An excellent report and good pictures too.

Cheers
Pete

I was using a .270 and my friend a .223 the shot was taken within 200m.

Good effort and a well deserved animal.

You made a good choice taking the young stag and letting the other animal go. Within the month she will probably produce another to replace it.

She ? is a fine looking animal.

Well done Josh, great result.....

well done

They were two males still with hard antlers

Result! Nice man

Is there a nicer place in the whole world?

That why the question mark. It was hard for me to tell. It would have been a good one if it had have been a hind.
