Thanks! It sounds like I did exactly what you did, but didn't find the proper track 200m to the west. Now that I know it exists, I'll be able to have another go at finding it. The rock on a stick on a log, that marks the start 200m to the west, did you find that on the little road (where you found the tags that went nowhere like me 200m east?) The little road directly above and kind of parallel to Ted Ranseys Rd (that doesn't appear on your topographic map)?
Or did you go through trees? If it is on that little road, I will be a bit sad, cause I walked up there.
Ollster, maybe you found another route? Or maybe it has been tagged again since then? Maybe I will take some tape just in case anyway.
Ta!

We found that the forestry coup at "the start" was quite a bit higher (50m or so) than it should have according to the information we had (ie; it was encroaching on the "no not log" boundary, or whatever it was, by quite a margin). We wandered off into the forest and picked up a taped route after a few hundred metres by chance. This later turned into a scrubby and indistinct pad on the steeper sections.

Also I'm pretty sure that the track shown on the 1:25000 map doesn't match reality either.
