Scamper Torrent was the last of the NZFS S81 four-bunk huts built in 1971, at a cost of around $1600. Unlike many earlier S81's, it's frame was treated pine & it was lined. After no maintenance for over 40 years, 2001, saw a DOC volunteer party install the water tank & paint the hut. The hut was overhauled by DOC in March, 2021, with a new roof, sky-light, tie-downs, stainless-steel bench tops, aluminium windows & flashings. They repainted the interior & exterior, built a doorstep & installed a toilet. The track from the Waitaha River is maintained by Permolat volunteers. Edit Hut
