Hunting

Fiordland Helicopters would like to congratulate all hunters who were successful in the Fiordland Wapiti Foundation (FWF) 2012 Wapiti Ballot which was drawn in Te Anau on October 29th.  The ballot period is always a busy and exciting time for us, meeting lots of new people, and catching up with many return hunters who have become great friends. It was pleasing to see a lot of names in the 2012 FWF Wapiti ballot results of guys that have contacted us over the past few months.  To those of you who missed out… buger…   hopefully we’ll be able to find you a good Fiordland Red block that you will have just as much fun in!

A 10 day expedition hunting Fiordland requires a huge amount of planning and preparation, as I’m sure you are all aware.  We know many of you spend large amounts of money, time and effort getting yourselves to Te Anau and then into your blocks, and this year we have decided to use this web page to  share information which we think will help you with your planning.

Over the next few weeks we will be adding information on the FWF Fiordland Wapiti Hunt, including where we are able to land in the different blocks.  This is a biggie, as some blocks require a long hike to suitable camping sites so it is essential to bring only what you can carry.

If you have any information on the different blocks you think will be helpful to this years hunters, you can email us and we will  add it to this page, or forward it to the appropriate party.

Look forward to hearing from you.
