On behalf of Mikey, your friendly Chief Guide:
Freshers
This is the first trip of the Trimester. Being the first trip, it will be a social one! We are going to
Totara Flats, meeting at the Hunter Carpark at 5.15 on Friday night. We will be taken on a bus to the
Waiohine road end and camp there on Friday. On Saturday, we will follow the track next to the river
to Totara Flats. As well as at Totara Flats, there are a couple of opportunities for a swim along the
way. On Sunday we will then walk out to the Holdsworth road end. Camping will be under flies for
both nights, but if you have a tent and want to bring it, then feel free.
We will arrange everyone into groups for dinner on Saturday. Your group leader will let you know
what you will need to bring for the dinner. You will need to bring your own breakfast, lunch and
snacks.
For a list of gear that you will need, see the gear list page on the website.
The trip will cost $25, to cover transport there and back. You can sign up for the trip online or come
along the first meeting on Tuesday to find out more.
NOTE: We will not stop on Friday night to get dinner. Eat something before coming or bring
something to eat when we get to the road end.
Come along and ease yourself into the new year!
If you have any questions, let me know.
