Tramping the Rees-Dart with a side trip to Cascade Saddle
Рет қаралды 1,471
Күн бұрынA 5 day, 81km tramp in Aspiring National Park doing the Rees-Dart track with a side trip to the Cascade Saddle. This is a great multi-day tramp along glaciated river valleys and across a mountain pass with spectacular mountain scenery. Three well situated large huts provide shelter and if they are full there are also limited camping spots. A must do tramp if you have some experience in mountainous terrain and enjoy an adventure.

Wow Pete! Thanks for the virtual walk over the Dart Rees. It brings 45 year memories from when David and I tramped it with three others from AUTC. I got heel blisters the size of old 50c pieces so took a day off to sit at the Dart hut rather than getting to the Saddle. Shelter Rock and Dart hut have been replaced since then and there're also new huts now in the Dart Valley. When we have the opp I'll show you photos of the old, far smaller character huts!

Thanks Pete for another excellent trip video & blog. The club tramped this two summers ago and your comments about the patronage of huts is spot-on. The Dart hut has 32 bunks and over N/Y's we had in excess of 50 sleeping in & around the hut, plus those who were tenting on the other side of the main bridge.

Thanks Chris. Tent sites beside Dart hut at Snowy creek were very good and sheltered.
