Over the last month or so there has been "chat" about how we could get together with our neighbours i.e. Counties 4x4 club, with different ideas floated most of which abandoned due to the need for finer weather, access and clashing dates. Well finally, we have decided on a 4x4 time trials event largely set up by Counties club with Manukau supplying the venue, this is mostly a social event with some 4 wheel driving, a chance to blow some cobwebs off your truck and also the opportu- nity to get up close and personal with some of these state of the art Rally trucks and their owners topped off with a BBQ. All vehicles will be welcome, keep an eye out for late September. Also last month, there was discussion at committee level on winch challenge class rules and which version to run with, north or south island, with both views put forward andFree at the end of the day a unanimous decision to stay with the status quo. You will also find in this issue the draft proposal for club vehicle scrutineering due to be implementedOffer later this year, please read carefully, not that a tremendous amount will change for most of us. The idea was born for 2 reasons, one was for safety issues the other to help out trip leaders. Lastly, last month I travelled along with Craig Brassey to Christchurch for the "Cust winch challenge" in support of Pete and Nathan, seems neither Craig or my- self could get coordinated enough to even arrive at the same time which meant Pete had to make the 40-50 km drive to the airport twice in the space of an hour and a half, seems it was all my fault (probably cause I'm the smallest and young- est... you know how it goes) anyway, a chance to see how these south island guys operate. I have to say; from a spec-takers point of view, very early after lunch it became evident; all Pete and Nathan had to do was keep it together and finish and they were in with a good result.... it was no surprise at prize giving to see them in 1st place.... excellent result, well done. All three of us at least managed the same flight home with Pete cheaping out on the baggage booking and having to ride off the back of myself to get his gear home, plus a misplaced "sneeze" saw me with a cold 3 days after getting home, the high- light of the return flight was upon landing; the look on Craig's face when the air hostess put on a pair of rubber gloves , he obviously thought it was going to be his lucky day and said as much, the only problem with that was, the air hostess also heard it, her "you wish" reply was awesome Bernie August 2014 Page 3 Planned Trips Remember to partake in any trip you must contact the trip leader and register your interest as numbers may be limited and a lack of numbers may result in the trip be- ing cancelled. The weather may also dictate last minute changes. Full details of the trips can be found when you logon to the website. MINIMUM GEAR TO BE CARRIED ON ALL CLUB RUNS Tow Hooks Front and Rear Spade First Aid Kit Nylon Rope / Strop Fire Extinguisher Page 4 Quad Torque Captain’s Corner July was a big month for me and my Co driver Nathan as we went all the way down to Christchurch and competed in the second series of the mainland South Island Winch Competition. The location was Cust about 30 km north west of Christchurch This event was a lot different to Nelson where we only had about four winches in the whole event. On the first stage at Cust we had four winches and all the rest of the stages had at least three winches each. Well we thought by the end of the day after 30 plus winches and half of them anchor winches we had done pretty well as we had finished all the stages with no DNFs and the Cherokee was still all in one piece apart from a ding in the left rear pillar and a lost plywood window. We were in quite anticipation as we fronted up to the price giving that we might be in the money and we achieved FIRST place in the Outlaw class This was our finest performance as we beet some serious south island competition and this is the first ever first for the Shoe racing team. Thank you Nathan for a magnificent effort on the end of the winch rope. Thank you to Nathans wife, Jo and daughters Alexis and Jessica who keep us feed and watered and thanks to our support crew Bernie and Craig who flew down to Christchurch and gave us serious encourage- ment. Coming up we have Mike Gibson is taking a trip to Porters road down near Rotorua on August 23 Saturday Aug 30 Woodhill patrol Sunday August 31 Woodhill patrol. Also we are going to have a club trip to Woodhill on the same day Book with Peter Yates September 21 st We are going to have a combined Manukau and Counties 4wd time trial event. Two classes With WOF and Rego and Without WOF and Rego. We have found a new location at Patumahoe for this event. We have set a firm date of October 17 & 18 for this years winch competition. Last year Manukau got more entries than all other North Island winch competitions combined so please keep these dates free as we will need you. Take Care out there Peter Haigh August 2014 Page 5 Onewhero Farm Trek During the July club meeting Dave talked about the Onewhero trek coming up. A number of questions were asked and the answers given and many people were keen to go. As the conversation started to change subject Dave mentioned just quietly ".....oh, and mud tyres could be handy......." I didn't consciously think too much of it at the time but not long after the start of the day I found out exactly what he meant! We grouped at a layby on the left just over the Tuakau bridge and signed onto the trek. About 15 trucks made their way to the farm which is down a very windy one lane road on the east side of the Onewhero village. The weather was not too bad al- though showers were forecast on the day. We gath- ered at the bottom of the hill just short of the cattle stop to air down and have the brief- ing. Dave asked if there was anyone new to 4WDing and three of us put our hands up. I have done a few treks with the club however mud is something I have not experienced yet. We were paired up with experienced drivers and Annette and I followed Rob and Martina for the morning. A long slippery uphill was the first challenge for the day. We slipped and slided to the base of the grade and made a right turn to start. Surprisingly the climb itself was tricky but not as bad as I thought it might be so we made it to the top ok. Most vehi- cles made it ok with only a new Toyota double cab with roadish tyres needing a bit of help as the turn was cutting up with each vehicle going through. At the briefing Dave explained that hill would dictate how the rest of the day would go and we were all very happy to make it to the top.

  • Critical Habitat for Canterbury Freshwater Fish, Kōura/Kēkēwai and Kākahi
    CRITICAL HABITAT FOR CANTERBURY FRESHWATER FISH, KŌURA/KĒKĒWAI AND KĀKAHI REPORT PREPARED FOR CANTERBURY REGIONAL COUNCIL BY RICHARD ALLIBONE WATERWAYS CONSULTING REPORT NUMBER: 55-2018 AND DUNCAN GRAY CANTERBURY REGIONAL COUNCIL DATE: DECEMBER 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Aquatic habitat in Canterbury supports a range of native freshwater fish and the mega macroinvertebrates kōura/kēkēwai (crayfish) and kākahi (mussel). Loss of habitat, barriers to fish passage, water quality and water quantity issues present management challenges when we seek to protect this freshwater fauna while providing for human use. Water plans in Canterbury are intended to set rules for the use of water, the quality of water in aquatic systems and activities that occur within and adjacent to aquatic areas. To inform the planning and resource consent processes, information on the distribution of species and their critical habitat requirements can be used to provide for their protection. This report assesses the conservation status and distributions of indigenous freshwater fish, kēkēwai and kākahi in the Canterbury region. The report identifies the geographic distribution of these species and provides information on the critical habitat requirements of these species and/or populations.

  • Proposed Amendments to LWRP Schedule 17: Salmon Spawning Sites
    Memo Date 28 May 2019 To Environment Canterbury Planning Team CC From Jarred Arthur (Scientist – Water Quality and Ecology) Proposed amendments to LWRP Schedule 17: Salmon Spawning Sites Purpose The Land and Water Regional Plan (LWRP) outlines several policies and rules that control activities in and adjacent to salmon spawning habitats of high value. These 32 ‘significant’ salmon spawning sites are listed in Schedule 17 of the plan. The advent of new spawning information means that Schedule 17 does not recognise a number of spawning sites important to maintaining Canterbury’s internationally recognised salmon fishery. The following memo is prepared by the Environment Canterbury science team with support from the Central South Island and North Canterbury Fish and Game councils. It outlines a proposal to amend Schedule 17 of the LWRP including: • adding 31 new sites; o 22 established from new Fish and Game spawning habitat data and information. o nine situated in the Waimakariri River Catchment currently excluded from the current schedule due to the Waimakariri River Regional Plan (WRRP) controlling land and water activities in these areas. • updates to three site descriptions and coordinates for existing Schedule 17 sites – proposed change in length/area of the existing sites; • updates to ten site descriptions and coordinates for existing Schedule 17 sites – no resultant change in length/area of the existing sites; and • a revision of the LWRP Planning Maps to show the proposed amendments to existing spawning sites and newly recommended spawning sites. Background Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) are largely confined to Canterbury with only small populations found in Otago, the West Coast and Marlborough (Unwin, 2006).

It then crosses the 60000ha Hakatere Conservation Park before nishing in the Heron Basin on a paper road that runs through Castle Ridge Station. It’s an area rich in high country history dating back to 1857 when Clent Hills Station was rst farmed as a 20000ha run under licence from the Crown. Over the years the station has survived many incarnations the most recent being the Nature Heritage Fund purchase of 10000ha, which reduced the station to a rump of 2000ha within the Heron Basin. The Clent Hills pastoral lease was in the Buick family from 1923 to 1982. The rst 3 years of this tenure was spent eradicating rabbits before stock could be reintroduced to the property. Glenrock Stream to Comyns Hut - 15.7km / 4-5hr From the DOC sign notifying “Access to North Branch Ashburton Stream” the track follows markers through farm land up the true right side of Glenrock Stream - look out for electric fences.
