Has anyone received their info packs for this years wapiti blocks yet? I have the Lugar Burn 2nd period and haven't received my pack yet. With time ticking on I am a bit anxious that it hasn't turned up.
Hi, me and a couple of mates are planing a trip to the Worsley in about 2 months and were wondering if you had any advice or information for us. We are planning on taking our own boat and basing ourselves from the hut for starters. We are average in experience and have only been hunting in Fiordland once but not in the Worsley area. Thanks.
If we weren't supposed to eat animals why do they taste like meat?

plenty of deer and chamios running around in there especialy the northern side of the valley and castle. ive been in quite a few blocks now and sandflies are by far the worst in this valley!!! good fish there too but guess youll be there out of season.

If anybody is interested, I created an interactive map where you can see the various wapiti blocks and change basemaps (topo 1:50k, topo 1:250k, satellite, etc). You can also turn on a 'wilderness area' layer to see which blocks this affects.
And I have some other maps here that you may find interesting. Including the results of a kea sightings project between the FWF and Kea conservation trust for the fiordland area. www.isaacbain.co.nz/maps.html
If you have any suggestions on what would be useful additions to the map, please let me know. Or if there is another map you'd like to see created that you can find anywhere else, also let me know - assuming there is data for it!
Cheers
