Week 5th - 10th January 2019
It's been a while since the Club has had an extended trip in the Tararuas. This is the mountain range that Allan first started tramping in and he is keen to spend as much time as possible re-visiting some old favourites. The focus will be on doing a "double crossing" of the northern section by combining a Bannister and Northern crossing.
The tramp will start at Kiriwhakapapa north of Masterton, to Cow Saddle and via Waingawa Peak to Mount Bannister, a peak that is one of the most sought after but often thwarted by bad weather. From here we pick up the Northern Crossing via Arete and the Waiohine Pinnacles. Given a good weather forecast we may include doing a full Waiohine and float down river to Walls Whare near Greytown - a true Tararua classic, stopping at Mid-Waiohine and Totara Flats huts.
Please book early
