River in flood, Glenorchy, Otago, 1993

Ko te waipuke te pūmate nui. Tau ai ngā kapua pōuri ki ngā ikawhenua o Aotearoa; koinei te take ka karawhiu te marangai. He maha ngā tāone ka tū kei ngā wāhi papatahi pērā i ngā tāhuna. Ahakoa tērā, he painga tonu i ngā waipuke – ka whakataka oneone te waipuke ki ngā raorao, kia noho mōmona tonu ai te whenua.
