    Aah, VT, home away from home.
    I remember when there used to be a big rubbish pit dug south of the hut.
    Before the pack it in, pack it out days.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    A chocolate fish is in the mail. Venison Top Hut or Tira Lodge on the map but Kelvinator Lodge is apt if you have been their in the winter. Lots and lots of deer bones in the gulley heads on the Ngaruroro side, must have been a hot spot.
