So I thought it would be great to get out on a day trip on monday, probably of a vage ''M'' grading. If someone has a car I like the sound of going up mt holdsworth, but mt hector (or at least kime) is equaly possible. If no-one has a car I think the choice is limeted to Mt reeves or kapakapanui, of these two kapakapanui is a much nicer track ...

  What better way to spend Valentines day than with a couple of good mates thrashing yourself half to death along the Tararua tops.  That’s what Kieran, Ben and I thought anyway.   After 4hrs sleep at Putara (thanks to Guy for camping with us and taking that gear back to Wellington!) we were away.  Having done a previous PK ...

Also, in this vein, trying to sign the hut books at Herepai, Drac, Andersons, Maungahuka, Kime and Alpha within one 24hr period is quite doable, however getting right out to Kaitoke within that same period was just a touch too far.  cheers Kieran and Ben that was a great trip!  and big ups to Guy and Belle - sounds trite but couldn't ...

Hi Everyone I'm back from adventures down south and this weekend we have another long weekend and a good opportunity for an extended tramp or some other activities. The calendar event is a trip to Carkeek hut but I may be taking my dad to the Wairarapa air show instead...but this doesn't mean that the trip or some alternative can't happen ...

There is then around 2 hours drive and up to a 5 hour walk ...

I'd be up for that as well, fairly flexible on dates.
