Lake Rotoroa

We missed the 'no dogs' sign on the way in. Like almost everywhere we have been so far, not a soul around.

Denniston

A terrible coffee before we head up to the old mine. Denniston, a small settlement in the West Coast region. It is on the Mount Rochfort Plateau in the Papahaua Ranges, 600 metres above sea level. During the early 20th century, Denniston's population was close to 2000, due to the large coal mine close to the town. It is now little more than a ghost town, with a population of less than 50.

Denniston Plateau

2026 hectares that comprise the Denniston Plateau. This area is neither National Park, or Conservation Park nor does it have any particular reserve status. Very bleak, cold and unfriendly the day we visited.

Denniston Plateau

Reminds us a little of the Desert Road, North Island.

Cape Foulwind

Cape Foulwind is a headland on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand overlooking the Tasman Sea. Previously named Rocky Cape by Abel Tasman, the present name was bestowed by James Cook in 1770 after his ship Endeavour was blown offshore from this point.

Tauranga Bay

Our first Seal sighting of the trip. Tauranga Bay is home to a fur Hector seal breeding colony. Later Seals came to haunt us. Both friendly and not so friendly.
