Thanks for that ,, I know most of your interviewees so it was good to see them. Not an easy task by any means ,, Watching this documentary brought back a lot of memories from my experience in The Mighty Kaingaroa Forest 1982/83 before and during Cyclone Bola ,, I was a planning field officer at KLC Kaingaroa Logging Company then so to prevent timber and logs harvested from going off and becoming sap stained, we implemented a couple of large “Sprinkler system” in the forest to preserve logs we built one set up at Ngapuketurua and another at the small village at Tauhara ,,, so I know what Forest Managers and the people and Forest owners of Rotoaira and Taupo estate and Tuwharetoa Iwi are up against ,, one of my dreams is that we will ALL be working together as one people and helping each other soon ,, nga mihi tātou katoa ,,
Great video Ivan. Good to see the whole story, ugly, bad & the good. It shows how loggers (forestry people) work through stuff, and get in there together to get stuff done. How skilled and adaptable they are. Have to admit, had a few tears. Nice to see the Flight boys, my husbands cuzzies. Well done Ivan, Looking forward to more.
Excellent coverage of this devastating cyclone to my home country. Brought tears to my eyes to see the destruction and to hear the stories of the struggles of the Logging companies & Bushmen etc. It was hard to see. Just wish you all the best and stay safe while the fight to come back from this still continues. 💜
Absolutely Fabulous …carted my first load outta Rotoairia in 1990 and worked out of Lake Taupo and Kiko rd as well. Took that photo of the MTL MACK and LTF longs @ the Mount Wharf.
@itpv_production7358 I'd say they'd learn for a small period of time until big money comes in and all that had been learned will be put on the back burner until it happens again. Rinse and repeat
The trees are planted to be logged. Maybe you need to learn about sustainable forestry. Its providing alot in the area. Nature is fine. Consider it a tree farm. I won’t go on as not much more needs to be said
Wow ,thats very sad. Thank you for this video.😢😱😞

🤓 is this about Cyclone Gabrielle’s effects on a New Zealand pine plantation or forest as their is a difference in management skills ? 🤓
Going to be more cyclones ,closer stronger.
Needs to affect rich citys for comman people to take on board.
Will they ever learn from this? Doubt it 😂😂
I think they have learnt a hell of alot
What are you saying need to be learnt ? We are all ears
@td42williams77 Maybe learn how to nurture nature and she won't bite back
