Notes
Private & locked (see below for booking details). Built in August, 1982 by the NZFS, it then became a DOC hut in 1987. Since February, 2014, it has been owned & managed by volunteers from the Southern Lakes branch of the NZDA, hence its a private hut, but for the sake of this website, it is categorised as 'back country'. It can be booked for overnight stays. Please see: http://southernlakesnzda.org.nz/huts/upper-caples-hut/ Edit Hut
