We avoided the Rugby World Cup final by heading for the hills and making a round trip from Otaki forks, over the Tararua peaks and along to Junction knob then down via Waitewaiwai hut. Three days of pretty nice weather as these things go, but no views from the main range.
Nice loop, eh? I was on this sharp ridge on a windy day, a lot of fun! ;o)
ReplyDeleteThe wind was pretty gentle, by Tararua standards when we were there. But it was wet enough to make the rock step before the ladder a bit exciting.
