11 March 1998: I now discovered that my faithful Nikon F-501 wasn't water-proof, even shower proof. Next tramp I will take the F4, despite its weight. So I've had to rely on Cathy Thompson's, John McCarthy's and Alan Roger's pics.

The Little Wanganui Hut was replaced by the Little Wanganui Gorge Shelter in 2011. It seemed perfectly functional in 1998!
