That will be the 'new' Kaurititahi, the old one burnt down, it looked out over the BoP.

Just beyond where you entered the bush at the top of Thompsons is a clearing, there used to be a hut at the top of it used by batten splitters and shepherds back when the western side of the Kaimai's was grazed.
