Glenorchy and Paradise

A couple of welcoming female orcs?

Glenorchy is very big in the Lord of the Rings as it nestles at the northern end of Lake Wakatipu, surrounded by the snow capped Misty Mountains of the story.It wasn't until late 1862 that settlers arrived followed by about 3000 european gold prospectors who turned up to not find very much and soon moved on.It stayed pretty much wildness country until 1980 when about 50 prospectors mined for scheelite an ore used to make weapons grade tungsten finally gave up.So it stayed until it was rediscovered by Peter Jackson in 1999 when he was looking for a location for Middle Earth.We discovered a female pair of would be orcs welcoming us to the area.
