Tararua Forest Park
Mangahao Track

? Sections of the Mangahao Track from the No. 1 dam through to Mangahao Flats Hut have been affected by extreme weather events and some track sections have been lost due to slips and river bank erosion.

? The affected sections of track have currently minimal track marking.

? Please exercise extreme care when tramping between the Mangahao Roadend and Mangahao Flats Hut.

I walked this track on the weekend of the 12 to 13 May so can personally vouch for the above information. The following helicopter evacuation happened on our trip http://www.stuff.co.nz/4059225a11.html

Should be about 5 to 7 hours for most people
