this one of me tentatively tackling this stream in the Wellington Province (Karapoti Forest) taken by my pal 'Postie'. I'm not an expert at these crossings - seems to me among other things it's good to stop and take a look before entering the water - try to judge the best line then look into the distance (the bank) rather than the front wheel.

Here's more on the same trip with Postie and Garry W - all on BMW GS's

Me during an off-road weekend last spring.
The next pass I fell and broke my rib.

No rib breaking - None - I ride with gaspipe - so NO MORE broken bones, K?

The crossing went AOK - so WTF?
