Possum Hut/Green Ridge circuit – Silver Peaks

The trip will follow the new contour track from Mountain Rd down to the north branch of the Waikouaiti River, then swing right following the gully to Possum Hut (relic). We will follow a spur out of the gully which eventually connects with the Green Hut/Pulpit Rock track, and then head back to Semple/Mountain Road. It’s a good track, quite steep in places both downwards and upwards, but only for short bursts. The vegetation is quite modified and comprises of regenerating coastal bush. Good footwear and appropriate clothing needed as the Silver Peaks can be quite exposed. About a 4 hour trip. Rain date Sunday 13th March.
