Notes
An unmarked hut on maps. The sign attached calls it “Tin Hut". It was reportedly established in 1997 but it's not clear by whom. The hut can be found on one of the pest control lines above Korokoro Stream. There is an interesting collection of road signs outside the hut. Inside the hut in buckets under the bunks there are pots and pans, hut slippers. It also has a sheepskin, an Op-shop sleeping bag, detergent in a hand spray bottle, candles and candle holders.

Cool hut and spot - take the fairly obvious trap line by the bend. In good nick; I'd be keen to give it a paint sometime if anyone else is keen?

I clambered up the bait line to bag the Virtual Geocache. Signed the Hut Log too. Interesting location with effort to reach.
