Notes
Transported from Rakaia by truck & trailer to Erewhon Station. Then in the 1980's it was towed by bulldozer to Mistakes Flat by a NZFS crew, including Dave Anderson. It replaced the original hut [see 'Mistake Flats Hut (old)], which was destroyed by wind. In mid February, 2017, the hut received some attention, including a new stainless steel bench, widening of the bunks, lining of the ceiling & painting of the roof from Mike Lagan & his team of volunteers. February, 2019, saw the hut exterior painted by Mike & his team of volunteers. Edit Hut

In good condition. Maintained by South Canterbury Recreational Sportmans Club. The roof structure of the old hut is used as the woodshed.

We met the Christchurch 4WD club here again, it was very pleasant having a natter in the sun. We walked the last hour from the Forbes river as it was not suitable to cross with our vehicles.
