Hi, Here is some footage from my trip into the Edith in the 2024 Wapiti Ballot. We got the 4th Period. There was no roaring heard, or bulls shot... But still a memorable trip.

Hey all, we are Fiordland Outdoors, the water taxi company for the Fiordland Wapiti Blocks. Since Scott has mentioned our boat being late in the video, we just wanted to let viewers know that one of our skippers let us down this day and neglected to turn up for work, hence the hunters that day were 2 hours late getting to their blocks. Needless to say, we were absolutely gutted and if any of you have used our services before in Fiordland you will know this isn't how we do things. We did refund 25% of the pick up charter for all the hunters that day ( costing us over $2000) and of course we did a coffee run on the way up for everyone. Just wanted to clarify that yes we did muck up but hopefully we made it right as we know no one wants to be late to their ballot! Thanks.

Hey sorry guys.. I had no hard feelings at all.. That's why I never mentioned what company it was. You guys were good to deal with and I'd use you again.

Heaps of information there, cheers. we had similar weather as you for our Edith hunt 2023. Took us 3 days to get to the saddle due to weather as well. The Henderson was over 3m high and raging. We carried on down to the Edith Basecamp but the rain and river crossings fought us the whole way. We were just lucky enough to get a bull on our way down.

Hey there... I just don't know.. I mean pay off the fiordland magic is hearing them bugle... But it was all well and truly over by then... But thats just hunting isn't it!... The rest of the magic should make up for not hearing roars... And the weather is just a lucky dip regardless the period.
