Tramped up beyond Bealey Spur Hut to Pt 1581. Beautiful morning views. Must do an overnight tramp up here to the tarns along Black Range

Rainy morning with cloud clinging to the hills. Found an interesting little side track on rhe way back straight to the car park below the road.

Took a slow walk up to the hut - about 4 hours. Longer than necessary as I stopped to take heaps of photos. Still a very small amount of snow just above the hut in mid-October.

Outstanding views, easy walk to the hut.

Hut was relocated in 2013, a few metres east and refurbished e.g. replaced rotten beech pole framing. It is possible to continue along the ridge and then drop down to the confluence of Jordan Stream/Waimak R (Birch Nook). There is a way down via a scree into Little Jordan Stream though I haven't done it yet. In low flows one can descend from further along the range between 1545 and 1581 to Power Stream for a gorge bash. Yet to do this too, maybe some lovely hot March day. There is also the obvious loop involving Jordan Saddle and Jordan Stream. We did a 2 day trip camping out at the wee tarn at the SW face in the head of Junction Stream and then descended Bruce Stream until we encountered an impassible waterfall at NZMG E2392968, N5793793. We bypassed this on the true right which was an absolute bitch for regen. Maybe try the true left next time! Gorgeous weekend anyway.
