Whats everyone got planned?
Original post
I know that we have had this type of thread before but I figure seen as there isnt much happening on this website at the moment I just thought I would ask what everyone is up to, Have ya got anything planned for the weekend or training ya self up for a big tramp during the summer? Just thought I would see what everyones up to, its good to read about other peoples tramping trips plus it also gives ya a few ideas for tramping trips of your own.

Planned a trip around the Holdsworth-Jumbo loop in the Tararuas with my 9 yo daughter over Queens Birthday on the basis of a reasonable weather forecast and her desire to knock off a trip she's wanted to do for a couple of years.
Got to Powell Hut on Sat evening with over 30 occupants that night. The wind and cloud next morning weren't very pleasant for a 9 yo kid so we headed down to Atiwhaktu hut. The next day the sun came out and the wind died down and it was a very relaxed 2 hour walk eating the leftover chocolate back to the Holdsworth carpark.
It was really great to see a number of families with young kids out tramping.
I'm off to to do the Fraser Island great walk just off the coast of Queensland on Saturday 4 days walking on sand WooHoo
