It is a NZFS S86 design, built in November, 1965, by Des Mills & two others. It is lined & has a single louvre window. Des has said he'll provide some photos & history at some point. April, 2022, saw Tim Marshall & co., re-roof the hut, replace the leaking louvre window & install the tie-downs. At the same time, the route into the Matakitaki valley was re-cut & marked by a Jobs for Nature / DOC crew. Edit Hut
