Walls Whare carpark

The big swing bridge over the Waiohine River

Hold on!

This is just a sidestream!

Nothing biting today!

Setting up camp

Chris tending the fire while Darrel and Owen set up a seat.

Neville and Glenda enjoy a brew.

Darrel with the club tent

Chris trying a bit of fishing - again nothing biting! (We did see the resident eel)

Trying to ignore the grumpy hunter who thought we were scaring away the deer!

Fireside contemplation!

The happy campers!

There's nothing like a campfire!

Some of us visited Totara Flats Hut.

All good camping comes to an end!

Heading back down river.

Looking back on Totara Flats.

This part of the track goes under water in a flood.

Suddenly the ground opened up in front of Owen!

There are some big trees in this bit of bush!

Finally out and a compulsory stop at the Tin Hut.
