Wild Natives - Fiordland Wapiti 2022

Wild Natives Wapiti block - Period 3 2022.
Instagram - @timschulpen
A compilation of footage from our trip into the Wild Natives block to hunt Wapiti/Elk. We were generously given acces via the Worsley by the two parties hunting in there, this allowed us to get into the head of the Bernard burn without pushing up from the coast and around Lake Bernard.
We hope this video helps a few people planning trips into this area in the future, as we found there is very little content or information on the Bernard burn valley or the Worsely Biv where we stayed.

Well done fellas, and great bull. Got me a little nostalgic. We were a few valleys over in the Edith same period. Was a hell of a storm up on the Edith saddle (which was also a bomb proof camp spot).

Awesome mate! how'd you get on? Hell of a storm aye, that thunder and lightning wasn't enjoyable at all.
Good stuff fellas
Thats an epic bull! Good job! Once you've headskinned the animal, you can skull cap it getting rid of the weight of skull and brain. I've got a small saw on my skinning knife for skullcapping.
Well done boys was up Worsley over that ballot and heard mean roars
Well done, big brave effort, respect!
Chz boyz im always looking for a deal or what works best
A magnificent Bull fellas. Thoroughly deserved after putting in the hard yards. Great vid. Cheers

Sorry for the slow response mate! Its a Peak Designs Capture clip.
What camera lens did you film the hunt on? Probably who ever told you there were "No deer up there" knew there was a nice bull up there... Thanks for sharing your trip Tim...Well done, both of you. I've never heard of Zoleo ...so thanks for the heads up.

Agree mate, body and posture says 5.3 years old.
Got a couple of question. After you shot that Bull did you fly camp there or hump all the way back to your rock Bivvy in the dark? What model battery banks do you use to keep your gear charged? What model Stone Glacier Pack did you use? Cheers, grt video...
@timschulpen748

Hey mate! Slogged back to the rock biv after we went down to the bull to get the head skin done and cooling over a bush. Didn’t want it to slip the hair by staying hot on the animal. Power banks are a real mix of brands, nightcore and a couple from Harvey normal. And the packs are Stone glacier Sky Talus 6900 (grey one) and then the gold one is the Evo model.

Did you use the Zoleo for Weather reports? How were they?
@timschulpen748
Жыл бұрын
The forecast through the Zoleo was pretty average but just flicking a message out to someone who knows their stuff on getting a solid forecast was definitely the way to go. The Zoleo weather forecast is for the area, not for the localised spot I believe.
Hey fellas - great hunt the hard way. Dont reckon I could do that myself. Great head there, I wondered why you didnt take any meat from that beast eh?
@timschulpen748

Hey mate! Appreciate the comment. Packs going in were 32kg, we covered well over 70km over the trip in some of the hardest country you can find. Head skin would have been around 12kg and head around 15kg it doesn't take long before your lugging around 50kg+ through a swamp!

Being pushed for time with the sun setting and the bush edge right in front of where we set up we didn't want to take any more chances. We would have tried to get closer if it was possible 👍

@ocean view! Fiordland has broken many man mentally and physically! Half the ballot winners wouldn't have even attempted what these boys achieved! Never mind the quantity of gear, km covered and weight they carried to navigate that country to get back out safely. Sadly sometimes its the way it goes...
How bloody pathetic….what hero’s!!
Can't believe you left all the prime meat What a waste of animal

Not a waist. A waist would be if guys like this could not go into that wilderness and that the Deer are shot by helicopter as a pest. This is some of the most extreme hunting available in the world and has been kept as such by people like these guys

It is a waste, but simply not practical to pack meat out when you're on a long range trip like this.
