All members and anyone else interested in finding out what the club is up to are welcome to attend. \nThis month Rose\, from Friends of Claremont Bush\, will be coming along to tell us about Claremont Bush.

SUMMARY:Sefton Biv: Day Trip
DESCRIPTION:A day trip to Sefton Biv (there and back from Mt Cook village) has been scheduled for Saturday 22 April.  Although a day trip\, the plan is to travel to the Whitehorse camping area at Mt Cook on the Friday evening and camp there that night\, to allow for an early start the next morning.  Travel back to Timaru would be on the Saturday evening. \nA high level of fitness and experience (and a good head for heights!) will be required for this trip. \nThis trip will obviously be weather-dependent\, so the final decision on whether or not it goes ahead as planned may not be made until sometime on the Friday. \nPlease contact the trip organiser\, Barry\, to find out more about this trip. \nGrade: Hard\nLeader: Barry 6885320 / 021 02689877

SUMMARY:March Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Instead of meeting at the hall we will go for a short walk in the Caroline Bay area. The exact route will be decided on the night and will depend on what the conditions are like and what those present want to do.  If the weather looks a bit doubtful to you\, don’t turn up.\nMeet at the car park at the northern end of the bay.\nPlease note that for this month we will be meeting on a Thursday\, not a Monday\, and at an earlier start time. The change of night is because some members are unavailable on Monday. The earlier start time to make sure we can complete our walk in daylight!

DESCRIPTION:This area is 6 km southwest of Fairlie\, on the slopes of the Albury Range.  The track starts on an easement across farm land\, then climbs\, offering good views over the Fairlie Basin and towards the Southern Alps.  The trip will most likely be out and back via the same route\, though a round trip may be possible (providing the necessary approvals can be arranged beforehand). \nLeader: Catherine 027 7163518\nGrade: Easy to Moderate \nMap references: BZ17 BZ18

SUMMARY:February Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Our monthly meetings will kick-off for the year on Monday 13 February. Taking advantage of the nice long evenings and mild weather we will go for a walk round Claremont Bush\, rather than meeting at the hall. Start time will be 7:30 pm. The track is short and easy\, so this will be a good way to ease yourself back into things. The weather looks as though it will be kind to us\, but if you are unsure ring or text 021 08293331 to check. \nDirections: Go right up Fairview Road and turn left onto Holme Station Road. Follow this down the zig-zag and take the first right (Claremont Bush Road). The carpark and track entrance is about 1 km along the road. \nFor those wanting to share transport I suggest you meet at the Aorangi Stadium carpark on Morgans Road at 7:00 and sort it out amongst yourselves.

SUMMARY:Wilberforce River area - Multi-day Trip
DESCRIPTION:Christine and David will jointly run this trip\, and have given the following outline of their plans …\nDeparting from Timaru early morning on Friday 20th January (in one or two vehicles\, depending on numbers going)\, we will meet up with David at Windwhistle. Once any surplus vehicles have been safely parked we will head up the Wilberforce in convoy\, driving upriver to approximately opposite the Moa Hut. The actual distance able to be driven will\, of course\, depend on the river and track conditions at the time. From there the intention is to go into the Unknown Stream area and spend a couple of day’s exploring the valley\, then return to the vehicles and drive out on Monday 23 January.\nUnknown Hut has six bunks\, but we will also carry tents.\nFor those with good fitness and experience there is an alternative way to return to the vehicles – climb up to Moa Saddle\, tramp through to Moa Stream Hut\, stay the night there\, then walk down Moa Stream and back to the vehicles.\nAt this stage we have two 4WD vehicles available\, but it would be good to have one more if possible.\nNumbers will be limited for this trip\, so if you are interested please contact Christine or David as soon as possible.\nNote that due to the nature of this trip it will only go ahead if weather and river conditions are looking favourable.\nGrade: Moderate to Difficult\nContact: Christine 021 1276964 or David 027 6863550

SUMMARY:Mt Harper (Ashburton Lakes area) - Day Trip
DESCRIPTION:Mt Harper is in the Ashburton Lakes area\, to the south of Lake Clearwater\, and can be accessed from Lakes Camp\, Emma or Roundabout.  Its summit is 1829 metres\, so from the starting point there is an ascent of around 1200 metres.  The plan is to drive as close as possible\, then ascend either via the north face or the ridge (depending on conditions).  The return will either be by the same route or via the western side and Balmacaan Saddle (again\, depending on conditions).  A moderate level of fitness will be required for this trip. \nNote:  If the weather conditions on the day mean it is unsuitable to be on Mt Harper it is possible that Mt Barrosa (in the Ashburton Gorge area) could be an alternative destination.  If neither option is suitable the trip will probably be postponed until a later date. \nLeader: Andrew  027 9365040 (Text him on 027 9365040 if you are interested in this trip and he will get back to you.)\nGrade: Moderate \nFurther information:\nhttps://www.doc.govt.nz/parks-and-recreation/things-to-do/hunting/where-to-hunt/canterbury/mid-and-south-canterbury-hunting/where-to-hunt/mount-harper-mahaanui/ \nMt Harper Circuit\, Hakatere Conservation Park\, Canterbury NZ

SUMMARY:Mt Barrosa - Day Trip
DESCRIPTION:Mount Barrosa (1364 m) is in the Hakatere Conservation area.  It is in the Ashburton Gorge area\, a few kilometres west of Mt Somers.\nThe track starts on private land and slowly climbs up a grassy valley; then there is a more steady climb following a fence line and a poled route to the top.  From the summit you get good views of farmland\, Mt Somers\, the Arrowsmith Range and the Ashburton Lakes. The return route is back down the same way.\nThe walk is 3.5 km each way.  It will give your legs a good work-out and is not “just a walk in the park”.  A good level of fitness will be required. \nLeader: Catherine\nGrade: Moderate+\nMap reference: Topo Map BX19

DESCRIPTION:NOTE: This trip has been postponed.  It is likely to take place early in 2023\, though a date has not yet been set. \nColin will be taking this outing\, and has supplied the following information … \nIntroduction to Sea Kayaking \nLimited numbers of kayaks and lifejackets are available – so first-come\, first-served.  If you have your own kayak please bring it.  I can transport your kayak\, provided you bring it to my place at least one day before event.  If you don’t have a kayak\, the cost for kayak and equipment hire is  $20/person. \nWhat to wear:  Wool or polypropylene.  No cotton\, as this gets cold when wet.  Wear layers as when tramping\, but pay attention to the underarm area as this is where chaffing occurs.  Bring a light wind breaker\, and wear water shoes (or soft shoes if desired). \nWhat to bring:  Hat\, sunscreen\, lip balm\, sunglasses (water reflects sunlight)\, bottle or two of water\, lunch and snacks.  Also bring a small amount of money – as a café stop maybe required!  A towel and a change of cloths would be advisable\, as you may be wet by the end of the trip.  Bring a life jacket if you have a suitable one.  (Note: Kayaking life jackets are shorter in the body\, due to the seating position.) \nLeader: Colin \nNote:  If the weather is unsuitable on 12/11\,the postponement date is 13/11. \n
