Also called Thirteen Mile Bush Hut The track to Trailhead/roadend now requires 4wd due to wash out. Probably muddy and slippery after heavy rain/winter Good water all the way to hut Predator traps along track had caught 3 Hedgehogs and one Rat, well done whoever is doing this great work. No wasps in December
