Park fire
Tourist Hotel Corporation Tournament golfers were threatened with exploding beer cans when a Land Rover being used as a drinks wagon was destroyed by fire on Sunday 24 January. Tongariro National Park staff were called to fight the fire at about 3.30pm adjacent to the Chateau Golf Course after the vehicle was caught in a grass fire. The grass fire had been ignited by the exhaust pipe of the Land Rover after it had become stuck in a bog.
