some advice

Never spend the night in Ohakune in the summer. It is a seasonal town that caters to snow skiers. We spent a week there one night last week. They grow carrots there.  The end.

So funny! I've been to a few places like that. Glad you survived :)

When I visited Ohakune a few years ago I kept seeing these orange splotches on the road. Couldnt work out what they were until we came across carrot harvesting in progress. These were carrots that had fallen out of the bins while being transported and squashed by the traffic.

In the summer there are some lovely walks on the mountain tracks.
