    I know it's not the same, but you can make the trek up Golden Crown or Sentry Box.... sure, it's steep and hard work, but fuck it - are you hunters or netball players?

    This net baller got his letter today and will be driving to Ruahine hut.

    However if your real a real keen man you could also come in via the comet, walk to Shutes hut then climb the track to Ruahine Hut.

    Cheers

    You must really love climbing hills.

    Been to shutes and ikwatea forks once or twice last century when I was much younger.

    Regularly visit Sentry Box/Parks Peak ......... My Old Man lives there now.

    Cheers
