We have had two major slips at Kotukutuku. There is the rock slide on the video and also all the Zig Zags in the bush coming down the hill towards Kotukutuku have been taken out by the river and a slip. Chad found that this morning. One of the creeks has diverted and now flows past the seat on the flats. The rest of the track has not been checked yet but Chad said the bit he rode to get in and out was perfect with no damage, so fingers crossed the rest is good. I’m planning on riding it on Wednesday from Waihaha to the landing.

This is a major job to fix and will require funding help from NZCT. We are thinking we will make a safe, rough goat track open so people can get to the beach and picked up and then take our time at reinstating the full trail.

We also have some trees and two slips on Orakau KK bay tracks and a few trees on the headland loop. These will be dealt with this week to at least get this section up and running for Easter. Photos attached from Orakau today.

Craters also had some damage but Bruce dealt with the worst of this on Thursday and Friday (what has been reported anyway)

Rotary Ride is OK and I have had no reports of damage on the Huka Trails.
