January 30, 201610 yr Clean Brumby, always liked those massive NZ canopies! My late grandparents built a place in Arrowtown in the 70s so I spend most holidays up there, live in Dunedin rest of the time. Beautiful part of the country, always liked Glenorchy too, there's some great fishing around there up the Rees, Dart, Greenstone, Diamond lake/creek etc... Edited January 30, 201610 yr by KiwiGL

February 2, 201610 yr DOC rangers are underappreciated imo, it's a hard job at times with all the track maintenance etc Blanket Bay lodge is it? Few Lord of the Rings stars stayed there...
