Re: McKenzie Trail, Foxton Beach

Looks like you had a good time.
Surprising how many times full noise is needed!

My Defender with standard muds would not get over that sand dune.
Tubes and lower pressure next time I think.

Re: landrover winching up the side of a dam

I think Top Gear over cooked it. The original Landie worm driven hydraulic winch would have done the trick!
If the motor stopped the worm would have held the load.

Re: Cape Palliser Lighthouse

Thanks

Anyone know of any other interesting off road trips in that area (Wairarapa)? As the wagons are new'ish bush bashing is not desired.

Cape Palliser Lighthouse

Hi,
Anyone know the story about access through Cape Palliser Lighthouse to Te Kaukau Point. Is there a locked gate and if so how does one get access?

Is it worth driving? ( three shinny'ish vehicles, newish defender & disco 3 and a Prado)

Thanks
