Built in 1964 this was a collaboration between the NZFS, Canterbury Conservancy & NZDA, South Canterbury Branch, although some reports suggest 1965. The former, led by field officer Lance Boyd, organised for all the material to be provided to the latter. Volunteers from the NZDA, led by Dare Midgley built the hut at Erewhon Station before it was flown-in by Ray Wilson (pilot for Helicopters NZ) where Alastair Midgley put it on site. Although this hut is on public land, access to it starts across Erewhon Station. They ask that permission to cross private land be asked, prior to arriving at Erewhon Station by calling Colin Drummond on 03 303 9739. Edit Hut
