Porirua, Titahi Bay circuit, M, Paddy Gresham
On Wednesday 26 January, 25 members joined Paddy Gresham on another leg of the journey from Waikanae to Wellington along the west coast. The trip went around the Whiteria Peninsular to Titahi Bay and then climbed through Pikarere Farm into the Porirua Reserve and back to the Porirua Railway station. It was a long, varied and interesting walk. “Exhausting but satisfying” was one verdict.
Matthews on the side, SF, Colin Cook
Five members scaled an obscure ridge on Matthews' west face, encountering scrub, lawyer, wind and rain as they did so. Cloud was down to about the height of South Saddle so no views on offer either.
A 10-hour round trip with most of the time (seven hours) spent simply getting in to and out from the area of interest.
Total: 31 club members out in the hills
