All rough pastoral country, more or less broken by gullies, with occasional flats near the streams, there being a good homestead-site on the S.W. corner of Section 3, Block VII. The soil is good and well watered, resting upon a formation of papa. The land is wholly covered with bush, consisting of rata, rimu, tawa, towai, and the usual undergrowth. The ridges rise from 600 ft. to 800 ft. above level of main streams. The northern portion of the block will be approached from Urenui by way of the Mokau and Uruti Roads, they having been opened for dray traffic to the junction of the Uruti Road with the Moki Road, portions of the Mokau Road being metalled. The Uruti Road has been formed for some distance towards the block, which is distant from Urenui about sixteen miles and a quarter. The southern portion of the block is accessible via Okoke bridle-road, distant from Urenui about sixteen miles.
