Pistol Pete (& Susan) purposely pointing at a pile of packed pony poo! (The theory being that the wild Kaimanawa horses up here all poo in the same collective piles.)

Damage from the last big storm

A break before entering the bush.

The Trig on Mt Wainui

The view from the top looking north.

A jolly bunch!

Looking south to the Pauatahanui and Porirua inlets.

The Tararua Range in cloud.

Paekakariki and Kapiti Island.

A jolly gathering at the Trig.

The same gathering.
