Pukemokemoke Lookout

There's a 360 degree view from the lookout at the top of Pukemokemoke Bush Reserve. This is one of the views. After all the beautiful clear sunny days we've had over the the last week today was a bit grey and overcast.

I was going to say this sounds very like a Maori name and then I see from your profile that you are in NZ! Now having translated part of the word, I can see it has meaning - lonely, solitary!

What a great view.. well taken..

[Liana Bull]

Cool lookout. I think the clouds add perspective to this panorama. Did you climb to the top?

[Dianne]

Well done.

I think the over cast day is really making the greens "pop"! Beautiful greens! Beautiful view!

Great scenic shot. I just love how green the landscape is.

Beautiful scene!

How beautifully green - what a contrast to our brown rolling hills - although our recent snow is helping to fill our dams.

@maggiemae Thanks for the translation. It is quite apt too because this hill is on its own and surrounded mainly by quite flat land.

@kiwinanna Thanks Liana. This shot is taken from the top of the lookout - it's not a particularly high hill but does have views all around which is good.

@julzmaioro @dide @janewinfrey @bkbinthecity @northernlad @ali_pic @lookitsz @imaginings Thanks everyone. It is quite green around us at the moment. Very different from the summer when it was all yellows and browns from the heat and no rain.

What a view!
