No trouble. 500 grm sleeping bags and in a bivy bag. Good insulation under you is the important thing.
In the winter I do the same but upgrade to a 800 grm bag, and up really high to a tent.

Dundee. Is that track an actual legal unformed road? You can't put a gate accross a legal road. I can check if you're unsure.
Yes its a legal road
What they up to ? Putting in parking meters ?
A case of "Loose lips sink ships".
But don't worry as the steel gates are only there to keep the Riff Raff out.
You'll be fine @Dundee ........................... unless of course you identify with the above mentioned category. ;)

Then it can't be gated.
'Under the Local Government Act 1974, landholders are permitted to put swing gates across legal roads, provided they have council approval, the gates aren’t locked and the gates are signposted to indicate that they are accessible and across a public road. This situation is rare on formed roads, but is more common on unformed legal roads in rural New Zealand.'

As long as they leave foot access, I think it is ok.
If its the new rules for Health and Safety for quarries, the thin edge of the wedge is locked in, we are becoming more like England every day?
They are stopping vehicle access to the quarry, as there has been a couple of contractors heading in there with trucks and diggers and have been helping themselves to gravel. After the chap was killed in a digger in a quarry in Christchurch recently the council have made the call to block access to it.
