Waterfalls has been totally felled, and parts of it are being developed for lifestyle blocks, with a proposal of a huge dam and horse/bike trails. When we had a look it was very clean on the ground under closely planted young pines. It was good to see across the valleys, to realize just how steep it was, but it was a special area to orienteer in.

Mangawhai Forest has a proposal to put 200 sections on a 200 hectare (approx.)area, but I think it is the northern part, which was not mapped so well. The trees are 6 to 8 years old, and the coastal trees are still there to act as a wind buffer, I guess. This area also was quite clean on the ground when we had a look a couple of years ago and will be worth a look in 5 years or so.
