Humphries hut

  Humphries hut was sited near one of the tracks that take you to the Maungarau trig. The view here is magnificent. Unfortunately DoC Wanganui is not a fan of these old Forest Service huts and this one and Otaraheke hut were very hastily removed as The Hon Sandra Lee (Minister of Conservation) placed a moratorium on hut removals. The site of the hut is obvious, and has plenty of flat land for tents if you are not a fan of the three DoC huts.
