Back to basics

Not feeling very inspired this week, but that's ok, as we've got some great old standby routes here in Ōtepoti. Meeting at the entrance to Bethunes Gully on Norwood Street, we'll take the In and Out Track into the reserve, then begin the grunty climb to the top of Kapukataumahaka Mt Cargill. Pausing at the top to make it count by touching the trig, we'll take the side track out to Mt Holmes and the organ pipes, before bombing back down to the start. This nice and simple route is about 11.5 km with 700 metres of climbing. Dogs are welcome this week, and be sure to bring a head torch and maybe an extra layer See you there!
