A surprise in the forest.
In the hills 2kms away from the french border CJ glanced up into the forest and saw this large plane wreck. The tail section was intact but the fusilage was totally wrecked. I was told by the locals that the accident occurred in the late 80's during a large forest fire that was burning on both sides of the border. 4 french firefighters lost their lives. Their families requested that the plane remain.

Hi Chris chris and chris and donkeyKaren and I are sitting in Kaituna enjoying looking at your photos. Where's the one of the donkey?? PLease bottle some of that gorgeous weather and bring back as it has been crap here for a month. Rain everyday for a month. Rivers too swollen for fishing but lots of whitebait being caught in cwd apparently - but you know what fishing stories are like. Keep having an awesome time. See you soon. AW and KFC
