I went on an interesting trip with my family to Puketi forest in Northland.

The forest is very lush with some very large mature Kauri trees as well as other species that are only found in Northland. It is kept in good condition by DOC because of its importance as a conservation area.

From Puketi hut we headed up the track through the Kauri and happened upon another small hut used by DOC for it's conservation efforts in the area. On the way back we saw a white Alseuosmia macrophylla (they usually have crimson flowers). They smell amazing.  We also saw a pair of rare North Island Kokako that were singing in the trees.
