Kokatahi-Toaroha Westland Hell Mission interested?
Original post
Going to try a trip starting and ending at the Toaroha-Kokatahi Rd ends.
Zit Saddle does not look too challenging?
does any one know where I can hire a ice axe in Hokitika???
If your interested in joining me for all or some of my journey this is a basic outline.
Day 1 Drive down from Nelson, walk into Boo-boo Hut, 4-5 hrs
Day 2 Twins swingbridge-Crawford Junction-Top Crawford Hut-Crawford Biv-Return to hut if time
Day 3 Crawford Junction-Top Kokatahi Hut
Day 4 Adventure Biv-Cedar Flat Hut
From here I might continue up the Toaroha and return a few days later normal people probably choose to soak in the hot springs then walk out.
Day 5 Mullins Hut-Top Toaroha
Day 6 Toaroha Biv-Top Toaroha-Crystal Biv
Day 7 Yeates-Cedar
Day 8-out
If good on Day 4 round the top to Yeates or Crystal then Top Toaroha from there.
If not then possibly get to Yeates then walk out next day cutting it down to 7 days!
Cheers Phill
p.s goin to try do this in a couple days or nxt week when we get a good spell of weather
