Wapiti Ballot, 9 days of food....
Right team, after some advice and opinions as to how to go about planning our food supplies for the Wap ballot. We are going in 1st period, heading in using my boat and a dinghy across lake Hankinson (we have Wapiti River) At the moment we are planning to hunt as we go which will mean we need to carry everything with us. In the interest of going light as possible it's looking like dehy is the only option, and even 9 days if dehy is going to take up a fair bit of room. Would it maybe worth risking going a bit light on the dehy and hope we can bowl a meat animal at some stage? I was thinking earlier of attempting an overnight mission into the area, getting as far into the block as possible and making a food dump, but headed to Uruguay in a couple weeks time and will basically be getting off the plane when I return, chucking some half decent threads on then attending my sisters wedding before heading for Te Anau, so it's fair to say I'm pressed for time. Any advice around what to do, what to take etc greatly appreciated.
Cheers
