Description

  
Just an idea at this stage:
 
FridayDrive to Lake Kaniere and climb Mt Brown Hut. It's a 4 bunker only and needs booking! There are camping spots next to the hut.SaturdayExplore behind the hut, then descend and stay at Lake Kaniere campground. If time allows, walk the easy, but very pretty water race walk, crossing over with car swap.SundayDrive to Smokeho carpark and climb to Ces Clark Hut on the Paparoa track (needs booking! Great walk)MondayDescend via Mt Watson to loop back and drive home. All weather dependent. Working folk can join for parts of if. Details to follow.
Mt Brown Hut is already fully booked on Saturday night (as of 15/9), but we can still go Friday or Sunday. Ces Clark has fewer than 8 spaces free on Sunday night. It will be tricky to plan. We can only book at short notice, as I do not want to go in pouring rain. Alternative could be somethiing in the Hokityika area, e.g. Rapid Creek Hut or Cedar Flat.
