I was recently down for the second time hiking and hunting. We spent time around Rakeahua and Freshwater inlet, day tripped over to masons bay etc. It was pretty muddy when we were there. Lots of holes that would easily eat your leg.
We had dry boots for the first few hours and that was about it. Still well worth it though.
If you don't mind walking with wet feet then I'd say you'd still be okay going down relatively soon - Wasn't too cold when we were there.
I highly recommend bringing more socks than you think you'll need.
