Cascade Saddle, 6 months ago I could have not imagine to be a confident enough tramper to attempt this route. But a Weekend with perfect conditions made it possible. By far one of my favorite hikes!
I accessed this hike from the Raspberry Creek Carpark in the Matukituki Valley and came out at Chinamans Bluff after crossing the Cascade Saddle and going down the Dart Valley.
I stayed one night in the Aspiring Hut and one in the Dart Hut with a Backcountry Hut Pass so in total it took me 3 days.
Going up the Saddle should only done with good physical form and perfect condition. There are some sections that can be dangerous when they are wet or icy.
