If the bush is very thick then find a spot with good visibility and sign and then sit on yah butt and wait. Can skmetines be quite successful

Nice read mate, I was in there on Sunday also, the Te Tehi, Plateau, Waipunga and Pukeroa are favourites of mine.
Keep up the work just please take care, those areas have taken some tough guys over the years.

Good stuff Anthony.
Well done keep at it you didn't come home empty handed you bought knowledge home with you
@anthony you might want to consider carrying a bit more food a puffer jacket matches and a light fly tarp.
Just in case ya never know.....you could have shot one right on dark and had to spend another night out.
You might need to get a new survival blanket. If there anything like the old ones you can forget about repacking it unless your good at origami. :thumbsup:

Quick overnight hunt into the Matakuhia Valley I had intentions of hunting in via the Opureke Track but after a reece decided too much windfall to attempt with it with a pack on, so bail out option 2 was the Upper Matakukia Hut,
Very little sign to be sign, be it pig or deer.
I put in a good evening hunt threw the day pack on and hunted at least 1 1/2 hours past the hut hoping to bump something at last light no cigar. In the morning I left at first light and hunted out in the rain all for no reward. So it ended up being a good leg stretcher climbing back out up the saddle which is always a bonus on the fitness front.
Track in good condition with an abundance of sting nettle hence I took no dog on with me this trip
Just got back from piropiro same seen fuk all sighn but was good to get out and have a look nice camp ground tho
No probably about 5 others
good effort mate. sounds like youre in the same boat as @Russian 22.
should go out for a hunt together some time.
plus a good night to be had by all at the waterfall, what was that song mate that was on repeat, (I'm in love with the coco) @AndrewH had the sound track I think
It was my first time in that area I'm going to check there next time
about 2and 1/2 km up from the capark on the left of the track theres a good north facing campsite to flycamp away from the crowds and good hunting once your up there . last time i was up there the track was so washed out you would struggle to get a quad up there.....which is a good thing means less people going up there
