I've been walking with my pack each day for a couple of hours and that gives one a lot of time to think.
The trip concept I have in mind now after a bit of scheming is to do "pass throughs", starting on one side of a range and finishing on the other, hitching back to the truck. Pretty easy to start locally with the like of the Princhester, then maybe a trip out of the Ahururi, then if I can find some dumb bugger to tag along, one of the "great" passes next summer (the Copland or the like). I have to disclose that my name on the other forum is "Armed Tramper" - and there is a reason for that!
