Southland Times - Bowen Falls NZ

Posted 13 March 2014 to the Southland Times Invercargill

Thank Goodness for Mike Schuck of the Milford Community Trust pressing to re-install the Bowen Falls Walkway at Milford Sound
It been the Path of Shame for the Old DOC administration of the last ten years and it’s a good sign that the New Team are looking into
Repairing the damage done by previous bad management policy.

Without Doubt, standing at the Base of Such a Waterfall is one of life’s amazing Moments. It’s well worth a Gold Coin Donation for the upkeep
Because to many it would be a real life experience.

There are other places that have been Neglected at Milford Like a Nature Walk / View Point Behind the Underwater Observatory at Harrison’s Cove.
Or the Old THC Water-Tank Post Card Viewpoint of Deepwater Basin.

Hopefully the “New Guys” with the Help of the MSDA and Barry Hanson can bring back a bit of the old “Milford Magic” that is now missing
And stop those European Tourists from avoiding the Sound because they think it’s a “Nasty Place” to visit.

I feel spoiled I got to see Milford Sound in 1971, that really was something else... Honest...
