Notes
This was the former 'Savlon Biv No. 2' & DOC's Colin Tripp & Pete Shaw, relocated it in 2001 to replace an earlier Makomako Hut on the site [see 'Makomako Hut (old)']. Some materials, namely the fireplace, bunks & woodshed of the relocated 'Savlon Biv No. 2', were recycled & incorporated into the new 'Makomako Hut'. Fay Zhong's photo shows the chimney & foundations of the old hut. It burnt down in suspicious circumstances on or about 29 November, 2022, despite a high court injunction order protecting it.
