    Yep.

    In the OP MBraga mentioned he wanted to do the McCauley - southern mountains rivers. This is very different terrain to the Canterbury plains, to north or south Canterbury downs country, or rolling Waikato terrain etc - know the latter well. So easy here to cruise up a river to a hut, then notice a bit of cloud cover happening, and next thing the river's rising rapidly due to a weather event further up in the Alps.

    When you head into these mountains, either on foot or in the truck, the best policy is to RESPECT them - and prepare well. As 257 notes - if you have a doubt about it it, don't go there!
    7mmwsm, dannyb and MBraga like this.
