Hi!
The next weekend is a long one - at least for Wellingtonians. We have the choice!
The 'Pouakai circuit' is fairly easy with three days, maybe we have a day to walk up Mt Taranaki. Have a look to this post.
The 'Round the mountain trip' (Ruapehu) will be a 3day@10h trip. To avoid great walk huts:
- Friday: drive up to Mangahuia camp site, stay there at night
- Saturday: Leave car at Whakapapa village and walk clockwise to Rangipo Hut (1500m)
- Sunday: Continue to Mangaturuturu Hut (optionally via Tahurangi (keen=2797m))
- Monday: Back to Whakapapa Village and drive home
How does everyone feel?

Or come on Tuesday and drink a beer at 7.30PMish in the Welsh Dragon.
