  • Presidents Report
    Otago Goldfields Heritage Trust, Inc President’s Report 2013 I am pleased to present my fourth annual report for the Otago Goldfields Heritage Trust. In the year just past the focus continued to be on the 150th celebrations marking the discovery of gold in Cromwell and elsewhere in the region. A New Generation Honours the Past One of the lasting memories of the gold 150 celebrations will be part played by the schools in our region. All schools took as their main theme for the year a remembrance of gold rush times and most children will have had the opportunity to pan for gold. The Trust has had a mobile gold panning set up which has been taken from school to school and while the “gold” might have been gold painted lead shot this doesn’t seem to have deterred the amateur sleuths. One of the Trust’s aims this past year has been to link today’s children with the events of the past. We are fortunate in Otago that there are still strong linkages with the land and its people and our wish is that today’s children and their parents will want to keep these memories alive into the future. To that end we were kept quite busy in the week immediately following the Cavalcade where we had involvement with 3 Schools visiting the Cromwell area and we were able to take them on guided walks, do some panning and provide information. We are very fortunate to have within our members such knowledgeable characters who we can call upon to interact with groups.

  • 8 Day Southern Scenic Route
    8 Day Southern Scenic Route The Journey Few New Zealand road trips rival the Southern Scenic Route for diversity. Sure, it takes in Queenstown, Milford Sound and other landmark attractions on its wiggly ‘U’ through the deep south, but it also travels to quieter corners, with hidden gems just as likely to wow you. The Southern Scenic Route website paints a comprehensive picture, but read on for a hit-list of our favourite stops (often involving home-baking). Highlights of the trip Queenstown Te Anau Milford & Doubtful Sounds Bluff Day 1 Queenstown Frequently lauded as one of the world’s best mountain resorts, Queenstown lives up to the hype with a buzzy centre and beautiful lakeside setting. It also offers a bamboozling array of activities within easy reach including hiking and cycling trails, golf courses, wineries, and iconic must-do’s such as the TSS Earnslaw lake cruise and Skyline Gondola. It’s also campervan heaven, with plenty of holiday parks and reserves near the town centre. Day 2 Queenstown to Te Anau SH6 skirts Lake Wakatipu and meets SH94 to Te Anau. Sitting prettily beside the South Island’s largest lake and boasting seasoned visitor facilities including three top-notch holiday parks, Te Anau is a great base for Fiordland adventures such as world-famous Great Walks and Milford Sound. Attractions close to town include the other-worldly Glowworm Caves, and the conservation-focused Wildlife Centre, accessible by foot or hire-bike along the view-filled Lakeside Track. Reward yourself with a Miles Better Pie. Yum. SIDE TRIP - Milford Sound Pies aside, we’ll eat our hats if you’re not totally wowed by this spectacular drive through the beautiful Eglinton Valley (campsites, sandflies) and rocky narrows around Homer Tunnel.

  • Otago Conservancy
    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand OTAGO CONSERVANCY Sutton Salt Lake (67) Location: 45o34'S, 170o05'E. 2.7 km from Sutton and 8 km from Middlemarch, Straith-Tari area, Otago Region, South Island. Area: 3.7 ha. Altitude: 250 m. Overview: Sutton Salt Lake is a valuable example of an inland or athalassic saline lake, with a considerable variety of saline habitats around its margin and in adjacent slightly saline boggy depressions. The lake is situated in one of the few areas in New Zealand where conditions favour saline lakes (i.e. where precipitation is lower than evaporation). An endemic aquatic animal, Ephydrella novaezealandiae, is present, and there is an interesting pattern of vegetation zonation. Physical features: Sutton Salt Lake is a natural, inland or athalassic saline lake with an average depth of 30 cm and a salinity of 15%. The lake has no known inflow or outflow. The soils are saline and alkaline at the lake margin (sodium-saturated clays), and surrounded by yellow-grey earths and dry subdygrous Matarae. The parent material is loess. Shallow boggy depressions exist near the lake, and there is a narrow fringe of salt tolerant vegetation at the lake margin. Algal communities are present, and often submerged by lake water. The average annual rainfall is about 480 mm, while annual evaporation is about 710 mm. Ecological features: Sutton Salt Lake is one of only five examples of inland saline habitats of botanical value in Central Otago. This is the only area in New Zealand which is suitable for the existence of this habitat, since in general rainfall is high, evaporation is low, and endorheic drainage systems are absent.

  • Safe Passage for Visitors
    SAFE PASSAGE FOR VISITORS Neil Bennett Road Asset Manager, Fulton Hogan Christchurch, New Zealand Abstract Tourism is vitally important to New Zealand’s economy and in the year ended March 2014 over 2.7M visitors arrived in our country. Increasing numbers of tourists are electing to have “self-drive” holidays. In Southland there is a popular tourist route known as the Southern Scenic route, that has an unsealed loop off the sealed road that accesses the popular tourist attractions of Curio Bay and Slope Point (the southernmost point in New Zealand). This paper explains the novel use of a cell phone application, originally developed in Sweden to survey roughness, to accurately monitor driver performance, identify out of context curves particularly from the perspective of a driver who has never seen the road before and often never driven on unsealed roads. The tourists are followed by a survey vehicle through the unsealed road section, photographed every second while driving and the phone data is analysed to enable monitoring of road condition trends at different times of the year. A seal extension would reduce the problem but as a standalone project this has been unable to gain NZ Transport Agency subsidy and so was unaffordable for Council at this time. Unsealed road maintenance strategies are therefore necessary to ensure the safety of our visitors. Key Words Unsealed, Tourist, Gravel, Accident, Crash, Overseas, Self-drive Introduction centres on seeing as much of that landscape as possible in the time available. In most cases In mid-2013 Southland District Council came tourists pre-plan a geographical outline of their under significant pressure from locals about trip, including if they want to see both islands, the condition of the unsealed roads in a what the ‘North Island – South Island’ split will popular diversion off the Southern Scenic be, and some specific tourist destinations, Route through the Catlins.

  • New Zealand National Climate Summary 2011: a Year of Extremes
    NIWA MEDIA RELEASE: 12 JANUARY 2012 New Zealand national climate summary 2011: A year of extremes The year 2011 will be remembered as one of extremes. Sub-tropical lows during January produced record-breaking rainfalls. The country melted under exceptional heat for the first half of February. Winter arrived extremely late – May was the warmest on record, and June was the 3 rd -warmest experienced. In contrast, two significant snowfall events in late July and mid-August affected large areas of the country. A polar blast during 24-26 July delivered a bitterly cold air mass over the country. Snowfall was heavy and to low levels over Canterbury, the Kaikoura Ranges, the Richmond, Tararua and Rimutaka Ranges, the Central Plateau, and around Mt Egmont. Brief dustings of snow were also reported in the ranges of Motueka and Northland. In mid-August, a second polar outbreak brought heavy snow to unusually low levels across eastern and alpine areas of the South Island, as well as to suburban Wellington. Snow also fell across the lower North Island, with flurries in unusual locations further north, such as Auckland and Northland. Numerous August (as well as all-time) low temperature records were broken between 14 – 17 August. And torrential rain caused a State of Emergency to be declared in Nelson on 14 December, following record- breaking rainfall, widespread flooding and land slips. Annual mean sea level pressures were much higher than usual well to the east of the North Island in 2011, producing more northeasterly winds than usual over northern and central New Zealand.
