Filming for TTT on NZ's Mt. Ruapehu. 5/20/02, 11:20 pm EST - TehanuNews from an NZ Ringer: "People from the Powderhorn Chateau in Ohakune [a really nice hotel on Mt. Ruapehu - the cast and crew stayed there last time] said that Peter Jackson will spend two days filming there this month. At a waterfall scene up Mountain Road. It is for the second film."
Good find Penny! - I was there looking for snippets of news myself earlier... and couldn't find a thing!
