Ruahine Hut Bagging Labour Weekend 20-22 October
Saturday, 20 October 2018
Tyre blew out on Comet Rd so on went the spacie
Shutes Hut (huge rat inside)
Hill we'd come down and now we are climbing the other side
Up the river at 6:30 the next morning
Looks like a mini big cat
We had to drop into the Koau Stream and back up the hill on the left
Looking back at the Taruarau River and the route back to the car
Where we had climbed the day before
We'd blocked the rats nest and cleaned the hut yesterday
But there was fresh droppings
Bashing through onga onga
We camped under the stars
Back over the river and 850m up the hill on the last day
