Fred it was a great way to start my day here just south of Brizzy. Being from Marlborough, seeing the Kiwi bush makes me smile & memories flow from my hunting & trapping times as a younger bloke. Thanks for taking us on your trips mate. Once young & reckless, time changes us all to the older & more responsible type. Stay safe & take care the best to you & Family

Yea this vid from a couple of weeks ago, you would think that doc would fix that track, a few familys with kids walk up there from car park as you say, the tack has been f..ked for a few years now and all doc does is put a sign there warning people rather than fix a couple of 20m sections.
