So now the Longwood Forest Section follows after you have to wait so long to see some pictures.
The section goes from Riverton over Colac Bay and than trough the Longwood Range to Merrivale Road Exit. At Merrivale Rd the nice Guy (Stearne) gave me a hitchhike and so I came to Otautau for the last Weekend (but thats the next post :).

| The Forest Track follows an old system of waterways for early chinese gold miners, and its after about 60 years really in a good condition in some parts which are not made of wood :P |
 |
| thats such a small water tunnel when they can't do it around a hill, it's not the entrance to a mine. I checked that for you ! (NO I DIDN'T MOM, GRANDMOM ....) |
 |
| Now it's the turn for an historic hunting and tramping hut and it was even the worst I ever had, A tent is a thousand times better than this ! |
 |
| The hut is called Martin |
 |
| Very uncomfortable wooden beds made out of some linen sacks are thrown on a "Maschendrahtzaun" between two wooden branches. | |
|
 |
| Next day I got nice views over the southcoast of the south Island |
 |
| Even the clouds look really cool |
 |
| A small lake on top of the Longwood Range in wetlands |
 |
| And an amazing windfall tree. That's are the root's, very flat |
