AMONG the far-flung outposts of the NZBS, none has been flung much farther than 4YZ. Pethaps being on the frontiers helps to preserve something of the old frontier spirit. At any rate, when the old track from Lake Manapouri to Doubtful Sound was re-opened by a local syndicate towards the end of last year, a 4YZ staff member, G. F. Curran, accompanied the first official party to tramp over it. Hostel accommodation has been provided at Deep Cove, at the head of Doubtful Sound, and Mr. Curran took with him a tape-recorder. He is seen below recording the impressions of two Scotswomen who visited Deep Cove in the course of a tramping holiday. On the right is L, Hutchins, one of those responsible for the re-opening of the track.
