A 3 day tramp from Kerin Forks hut to the Wonderland Valley. Following the Wilkin River upstream. We took a jet boat to Kerin forks hut the tramped to the Jumboland flats where we fly camped. We then crossed the Wilkin river and headed up the Wonderland valley. There is no track up the wonerland valley so it is some pretty hard bush bashing until you com out into the open. We spent a night fly camping in the Wonderland valley before heading back the way we came in one long day.
