This is a Heretaunga Tramping Club (HTC) hut. Originally built in 1940, It was officially reopened after a major rebuild on 19-20 May 1979 by Mrs Janet Lloyd of Hastings via mountain radio to the 32 folks in attendance at the hut. The then HTC President, Phil Bayens cut a cake shaped like the hut. For overnight stays donations should be sent to: HTC, PO Box 14086, Mayfair, Hastings 4159. Edit Hut
