Gets hammered Rushy, there is a public Road that Dundee was standing in in some of those shots, it's like 4 meters behind the hut.
Drop down off the tops a bit and yes there's plenty if deer:)
You can even see our woodshed in one of those pics:)

I walked back down the track Brads as it turned to shit real quick and couldn't even see the "Cats Paw" on the way down.
Sakokid yeah I glassed slips on way up.
Rushy all that you see of the inside of the hut is on those two pics,no matresses,no fire but just a shelter but you certainly appreciate it when you hike to the top.
you guys glass deer from the track?
can't wait to get up there

Hope you got your North Island accent sorted VC,and hope the weather plays the part when you guys come up.
What inspired ya to walk all the way up there?Apart from the view:yaeh am not durnk:
Ditch the tracks next time mate and walk down the leading ridges providing the wind is in our favour.or from the top there drop into the head water of the rokai and stalk the bush around there im sure you will knock one over that way.Nice pics just another typicle day in the Ruahines aye!!.
My plan was to go further East from the Ruahines but could see the Wairarapa weather playing its part at the other location so headed here instead. I haven't been to the the A Frame for years so I thought I would stretch my legs.:D I knew where the better option was but felt the urge to climb to the top.:wtfsmilie:
Last time I climbed to the A Frame it looked like this.:)

The boy wanted me to go for a hunt again.So after he mowed the lawns we were off.:)
He walked up 'Dry Creek'. I was on the ridge too the right of the creek and saw him disapear past the creekbed in the centre of pic.

The wind was swirlling all over the place. Possum trapper then climbed the left rige before coming back down via "Rokai" track.
I carried on through the bush and came down into the next creek over the right ridge.

The wind was in my face next minute blowing up the rear.

Attachment 88895
It was a chilly 6degrees and fair pissing down on my way back.
Attachment 88898Attachment 88899
Although it was chilly I still had to lose some layers and when putting sweatshirt in my pack I noticed no knife in my sheath.
Attachment 88902
Bonus was I never needed it today.
Attachment 88903
Got my wet arse out of the bush and had to be at work soon.
@BRADS girlfriends were slowing me down.
Attachment 88904
My knife had fallen out of my sheath in the car.Cold and wet never saw anybody or deer but it was a good hike from Tamaki to the Rokai.
Mel said you picked a nice day for it mate[emoji16]

It was brilliant no other dumb bastard around.:thumbsup:
Oh, yeh righto then. Never got that far before opening my mouth, inserting my foot and chewing vigorously. Still Dundee is a former soldier so should know to check his kit before heading off. If you read. This Dundee then drop and give me twenty for that wee fuck up. Next time you will be confined to a kitchen full of vegetables.

Never change @Rushy love your work!
Decided to head back up into the Ruahine Ranges to see where all the water is coming from. No wonder the lowland rivers are in flood.

Back up "Dry Creek" today had a stag roaring to the left of the waterfall but couldn't coax him down had to get off the hills for milking. I'll be back before the Easter madness in the Ruahines.
