EXPLORING NZ BUSH AFTER CYCLONE GABRIELLE. CYCLONE DAMAGE UNCOVERS A COOL ARTIFACT.

Exploring the New Zealand bush after Cyclone Gabrielle passed through. A lot of damage/changes to the environment due to the powerful torrents. Some wind damage but surprisingly little in the area I frequent.
The flooding and collapsing creeks also revealed an old lost artifact still stuck in a creek bank.
I have had it checked out by experts and the results are in my video.

Enjoyed the before and after shots. That water really ripped the forest floor apart. Cheers Dave

Sure did bro. Surprisingly little wind damage for an area that is littered with downed widow makers from earlier storms.

Nice one Dave, the water can be so destructive, to our eye anyway, I forget just how clay that soil is there. Great find by the way, nice little bit of history thereand in good nick to by the looks, always look forward to your videos mate, Cheers Chris

Thanks Chris. From what I can piece together from the damage, the moving water may not have been very deep but was fast, high volume and powerful

Thanks for watching. It was a nice surprise to see it sticking out of the bank, then to find it was intact.

Thanks for subbing bro. I have spent some time in the Malaysian jungle. I think it may be similar to Indonesia.
