Had no idea where Karangahake gorge is so just looked on google, photos of place look great. Are you gonna learn some roping!
You gonna have such a cool time. I got my horse from a guy who does roping, I know what you mean by responsive. LOL.
I bet you will be ditching your english saddle and bridle when you get back.
Have a great time.
Cant wait to see photo's

I remember my first roping lesson. =/ Not very good, but def fun.

Never seen anybody twirling a rope in an English saddle, so I can't wait to see piccys! hehe.

And yes, roping/cutting/cow horses are VERY sensitive. My boy High Five(the one in my avatar) was a futurity cutting horse, and he is absolutely the best horse I have ever had.
