160422-Whananaki
Fri 22 April - Whananaki - more of the beautiful north.
Intro
Details to come folks. This camp will be the first autumn/winter camp so cabins may be a better option than tents. This area has walks (the longest foot bridge in the Southern Hemisphere) and at least one river paddle if the wind is adverse. Outside of the harbour there if lovely rockgardening. At the mouth of the harbour there is a bar, often with great surf.
Joya's instructions
Also, footwear should be minimised to booties for kayaking and jandals/sandals and/or gummies (if remotely cold) for camp. Camp footwear will get wet in the dew on that inevitable early morning visit to the long drop or loo block. If its cold enough to need socks then gummies are recommended.
