    Questions over the name of Ruapehu's Turoa skifield

    Questions over the name of Ruapehu's Turoa skifield


    Documents from the Maori Crown relations office show hapu Patutokotoko is concerned Pure Turoa is commercialising the name - which comes from historical leader, Te Peehi Turoa.

    District Mayor Weston Kirton says Turoa's been around for a long time, and we need that name attached to the skifields because it has a proud history.

    The hapu and Government are having conversations about a possible reconciliation package.
