Rangitata River

And so when I came in, I picked it up, and I'd hosted Todd in, in Timaru at one of our firearms forums.

And, um, and, and it makes sense, I think, for someone like me from our area- When you've got amazing fishing opportunities, particularly in and around the canals and around the rivers that I've got in my electorate, and I've got the Rakaia and the Rangitata River, two of the best-

Mm-hmm

... you know, fishing spots in the country.

Afterwards the same party, having come round by coach to Canterbury, carried their triangulation up the Rakaia River and joined the west and east coast surveys, ascending to the same point on the divide, thus proving a pass practicable.

South of the Rakaia, the Rangitata River flows from two or three glaciers of more or less second-rate importance as compared with other alpine districts.
