Organiser: Robyn Surcombe
A simple overnighter to Blue Range Hut! Short but steep and scrambly track, a cute hut to hang out at for a night (just as well.. I will have moved out of my flat and have no address by then).

When?
Sunday 21st June (meet at Hunter Carpark at 10am) to Monday 22nd June (back early-mid arvo)
What?
Two hour drive to Kiriwhakapapa Campsite, walk time estimated at 2-3 hours, it is <3.5km one way. Super chill evening looking at the view, I will bring cards. The hut has 4 bunks so we will also take tents/flies in case others are there or our group is big.
Who?
Anyone! At the moment we are limited to 1 car with only a couple of extra spaces. If you can bring a car please let me know!
To bring:
Usual overnight tramping stuff and lots of warm layers for the winter (I will email a proper list).
Bring your own breakfast and snacks
For dinner, I was thinking we could make tacos or something, but go all out with fresh ingredients and stuff if we want. Short trip means full send on fancy meal, right?
Filming notice:
This trip is being filmed for the Massey student documentary. If you don't mind being on camera, perfect! If you would rather not be on film, it might be better to sit this one out.
TBD
