I cant make the trip in January but silent scope and I went in there a couple of weeks ago on a scouting mission. Saw a few deer. Just an idea, if you have bikes then Waikuku lodge might be a good base. Sutherlands hut is a bit further in and also a good base but might be pretty occupied at that time. Plenty of places to camp. Hope it gets off the ground for you all and good luck.Tony
