I like the name .... and wonder about the history behind how it got it's name...
Is that the awesome rocky mountainous landscape at the Whangarei Heads?

Yes it is - there is an old Maori fable about people who were turned to stone, cant remember all the details..but Mt Manaia has the jagged edges that represent those people. Must ask someone... Very Happy
