Evening John,

Fantastic pictures and stunning terrain.

I liked a couple of the sentences used "way to fu-kery above us" 10/10 for a proper description.


Also " There were no helicopters involved in the hunt! " Appreciated all the better for the sheer effort involved.


Absolutely Spot on.

Ooh yeah, it was so fkn high, with hanging glaciers and earth rumblings.

" There were no helicopters involved in the hunt! "

And that is how I have done my hunts in NZ, not getting dropped of at the top and picked up like a fresh daisy.

NZ Kea also known as a Cee-unt. Shanks was sitting alongside me and after watching the bird for a while chewing on my 7mm mag tape he said "boooom" I laughed out loud.

Kev,its a matter of simply doing it,no money involved as my hunts were reciprocal. Kiwi shot a couple of nice sambar stags here.
Our next hunt was more involved and much much tougher.
I came home and then lost four toe nails as an after effect of wet feet and rock bashing.

As a footnote it seems that `ol Klenchy didn't mention the GREEN rifle.

A grand tale, John. Makes me wish my legs were fifty years younger. But I wish that every day.
