Kia ora friends
I'm leading a trip from Marchant Road to Alpha Hut on Saturday 15th May, returning Sunday 16th.
It'll be a tough eight hour slog each day through the very gates of hell.
(no kidding, a feature called the gates of hell is two hours before we get to Alpha hut. I have always wondered which side of the gates hell is on. But I digress).
There is a fair bit of climb involved, generally under the bushline. A decent level of fitness will help. Winter is coming, and warm clothes/sleeping bags are required.
Especially keen beans are enouraged to storm up Alpha peak for sunset or sunrise (and hey, why not both?).
Please bring the gear and equipment from the quick gear list page (I will supply cookers and gas).

If you have a car, or a big old billy (the more dents the better) please let me know. Dinner will be supplied, but please provide all other food. Let me know if you have any dietary requirements. Any questions, email me for details.
