    I don't think I know anymore than anyone else sorry.

    I need to get to Whataroa for a hunt.
    Heard that people have got as far as Franz from Hokitika even tho Road is closed. I will be towing a boat so will wait for the all clear.

    I know the big slip just north of the Whataroa bridge that had the road closed a week or so ago is not affected. It is still open.

    Rain has eased down there according to people I have spoken with.

    I will try and post any info as I come by it. Just packing gear now to head down when it is viable.

    I don't see why he won't be unless weather conditions prevent it.
