Hey guys, I know I haven't been around the club for a while and and my boots are getting cobwebs, but I still like to keep an eye on the website and any tramping related stories out there.  I saw this article on Stuff over the weekend. A must read for anybody who has done or is considering doing the Southern Crossing. Pretty chilling story and pictures. Copy/paste into URL.

Thanks Scotty, look out for instructional meetings on the safety/ survival side of things next year by Army/ SAR guys.

Also on a side note, try and make thread titles more informative in future,

Cheers
