Is anyone keen on staying in the Tararuas on Sunday?
I'd love to go to Maungahuka or further north over the main Ridge and get home by Sunday. - The weather looks good so Wellington can wait.

This will probably just be a tramp now - so if you want to get away for some exercise Friday night/Saturday let me know! (patonomatic@gmail.com)

Rough plan is Penn Creek friday night, and a loop onto the tops via Vosseler and Bridge Peak returning to Wellington Saturday afternoon.

Tubing from Penn Creek

Hi all, if anyone's keen to go tubing from Penn Creek down to Otaki Forks this weekend, let me know at the meeting tonight so I can sort out some tubes. You would need to bring your own wetsuit (or hire one from a local dive shop). Prior tubing experience not a necessity, but it helps if you're fairly comfortable in the water.

It's a bit of a walk in to the hut (about 4 hours) so I might aim to head in there Friday night (or at least up to Field), and then tube back down on Saturday and back to Wellington Saturday afternoon/evening.

Let me know if you're keen! Weather looks fantastic at this stage :)
