	Description:		There's tension in Te Urewera, where work is underway in the remote, rugged country to strip, dismantle and burn down backcountry DOC huts. Fifteen are gone, and another 33 are set to be removed by December. Eventually they will be replaced, according to the local iwi, with modernised, 'eco accomodation'.
