Notes
The site began life as a temporary camp built in 1966 to accommodate the first NZFS goat culling teams in the Remutaka Range. Later, NZFS Ranger Joe Hansen & culler, John McCann, built the hut & in May, 1990, they added the veranda, deck & steps. Brent Castle has progressively tidied the hut up, recently repainting it in NZFS orange. Edit Hut
