Monday’s Walk 13 May 2024

Boundary Creek:  6km/1 ½-2 hr one way

Meet at 9.30am usual place down by the waterfront carpark opposite McDougall Street. The weather forecast is fine apart from morning cloud and (11 degrees max/ 2 degrees min).  We may be able to get above the fog, for a leisurely climb up to an old musterers' track.   The 4WD track starts opposite the Boundary Creek campsite 50km/40min. from Wanaka on SH6 between Hawea and Makarora. It climbs 500m to a viewpoint looking back to the head of Lake Wanaka. We can follow the old musterers' trail to find a lunch spot above Boundary Creek gorge, then return the same way. Sturdy footwear will be useful. There is no water. Please have $10 for your driver.
