Adventure week 24th Feb - 3rd March 2019
I have designed this tramp for every level of fitness and experience. Walking times will be 4-5 hrs/day but with options if your fitness and/or weather permits. We will be staying in huts but as some are only 12 bunks a sleeping mat is essential, preferably also a tent. The Cobb Valley road is still not repaired so we will therefore undertake either a loop, starting at Graham Valley Rd or, if the road is open, up the Cobb Valley. The minibus cost return is $130/person/return and we need 5 people minimum. I am required to pay for the bus up front so require this amount to be paid into the WTC account with your booking the account number is on the bottom of the front page of the bulletin and the code word is COBB. If the trip doesn’t go ahead you will be refunded. We will be on the tops for 3 days so good gear is essential.
If we can start at Cobb Valley then we begin at day 2. Otherwise starting point is Graham Valley road, day 1.
Day 1: Trilobite Hut.
Day 2: Fenella Hut
Day 3: Back to Trilobite Hut
Day 4: either Balloon Hut or Salisbury Lodge.
Day 5: Options are: 1) a day trip to Gordon Pyramid; 2) Dry Rock Shelter; 3) continue to Mt Arthur Hut; 4) do a day trip to Mt Arthur (12 hour return).
Day 6: Return to our bus.
It is essential that everyone is on Nelson on Saturday 23rd in time to start the next day at 9am. We will return to Nelson on March 1st.
I am awaiting confirmation of YHA accommodation options and will arrange for gas if required. Contact the leader for more information
