•A giant tree come to a stop. His
way was blocked by the Tararua
and the Ruahine Mountains.
The rocks were very pointy and
tough, so was the tree.

The tree busted its way through the
rocks and it meandered through the
mountains untill it made its way through.
THE ROCKS WERE HEAVY!
They may of fell on the tree, but it kept on
going.

The rocks fell to the ground and the
tree formed the Manawatu gorge
The rocks were heavy and the huge
rocks smashed on the ground.

The Totara tree made its way tumbling to the giant sea and formed the old
Manawatu river bed, the river had blue and green streaks that shone in the morning
sun light.
