Notes
A S70 type, built by the NZFS, Paul Gush & co. in 1966. Members of the NZDA Porirua have been slowly undertaking remedial work on the hut during 2021, including replacing the floor in front of the fire which had collapsed. January, 2022, saw Graeme Blanchard & 4 other volunteers paint the interior & exterior of the hut, as well as scrub-bar around the hut. The hut has been returned to its original NZFS orange colour scheme. Future areas needing work includes the chimney, window & floor in the front alcove. Edit Hut

Mid December, 2024: From Lake Ferry Rd, drive 4.8km down Whakatomotomo Rd. Turn L) into the un-named forestry road (its the road after '451 Whakatomototmo Rd'). Drive 5.8km. Park at the obvious car park on the left. Walk another 150m along the road to the 3rd cutting & pick up the 4wd track on the true left. Note: do not cross the concrete ford where you parked your vehicle.
