Tramper.co.nz mentioned in the Listener
Original post
Well, this site has just managed a mention in the current issue of the Listener, in "Life in NZ" page 7.
That is thanks to honora's addition to the English language at http://www.tramper.co.nz/?view=object&id=3448
Delighted that Matthew's site has been publicised. Even more chuffed to see that Waharoa Saddle is getting mentioned as it is a magic place to be with those *flybys* of the tuis and kakas. Just as well we did all that work tidying up the track we cut a few years back that enables people to get up to Pfeifer Biv without a heinous 300m vertical scrub bash.
I see DOC are also providing links to NZ Tramper website ... gotta be good!

Yep: I see that Google has you as the no.1 pmcke in the world courtesy of NZ Tramper. Note also that bigpaul's down at position 24: mate you need an obscure acronymous username like pmcke!
Damn almost made it to obscurity. How do you top pmcke it just rolls off the tongue.
None of my accounts appear on the first 10 pages...
edit: Ok one does, but I last used it in 2001.
I noticed those DOC links too -- but it's only in one area. We must have caught someone's attention there. :-) I think it's nice to see official organisations recognising community knowledge and not fretting about liability.
