Club Night 9 November 2020

Club members were interested in a proposal to build a new 6 bunk Hut in the Waianakarua Reserve, though being off any tramping routes, would be of limited use for the Club.

Trip Reports:
!2 members rode the A2O bike trail from Windsor to Duntroon and back on ebikes while 3 rode pedal power bikes from Cants road. All met at Duntroon for lunch.

6 trampers climbed the 1917m high Ohau Peak in a 12 hour day. They encountered gale force winds along the top, which made the necessary boulder hopping a bit of a challenge!

Wednesday Walkers had return trips along the Waiho Walkway to the Waiho Forks Hotel, Andersons Lagoon to the Shag River Mouth at low tide passing 7 sea lions basking on the beach. They enjoyed a new coastal walk south from Timaru to Jacks Point lighthouse, and a farm walk circuit near Taieri Peak with lunch beside the Waikouaiti River.

Coming trips are to Kakahu Bush, a night walk in the Herbert Forest, climbing Mount Kyeburn, and weekend trips to the Neuman range via the Dobson Valley, and the Mount Somers Track. There will be a Christmas pot-luck meal on the 14 December.

The evening then concentrated on planning trips for the summer.
