I'm thinking of staying up after snow cavng and spending a day or 2 climbing/skiing. Then maybe head off and do a tramp for 2 or 3 days. Not sure where yet - maybe something nice and easy like lake Waikaremoana. Hopefully mid week there wouldn't be many people around! It isn't entirely clear if backcountry hut passes are ok during winter on it as it is a great walk, but you have to book all year. I'm open to any other suggestions tho!
