Hey all,
for a number of reasons (hazel being away, me being busy, etc) hut bagging won't actually be happening this weekend.
So instead I was wondering if anyone would be keen to go on a real good mission somewhere and brush up on those navigation and bush bashing skills? It'll be a great chance get out and about in the hills before the epic 8 day trip to Kahurangi, and also good practice for those who might be leading trips in the future (or want to get into it).
Anyway come along to the meeting tomorrow night and I'll hatch a plan depending on interest - I can only make it for a day on Sunday (or possibly overnight saturday) but theres no reason why we can't have a full weekend trip going and meet up somewhere. Anyway let me know if your keen and we'll sort something out probably in the rimutakas or southern tararuas - and warning, it mite be a little mad! :)
See yous tomorrow!
PS if people are still keen for the whole hutbagging idea we can reschedule it for a bit later in the year - it will take a fair bit of organisation and a lot of keeness from people to work, so let me or hazel know if your still keen for it to happen. If you don't know what hutbagging is its basically trying to get groups going to every hut in the tararuas in one weekend (all 50 something) and get our logo in every hut book!
