I went to Maungatautari Mountain and did the monthly check by walking a 2km section of the 47km pest proof fence. There is a vehicle service track on the outside that follows the fence line. At times this gets worryingly steep when you are in a vehicle! This fence is made from a stainless steel mesh and is a permanent barrier to all mammalian pest species. The inside has been pest free for the past 4 years enabling the native flora and fauna to fully recover.
