Includes 20 peaks less than 45 kilometers from Hokitika, New Zealand, the biggest town in the Westland District of the West Coast Region. All lie west of the main divide and in Westland District between the Taramakau River and the southernmost tributary of the Mikonui River. All can be seen from the Hokitika township. This challenge does not include peaks with technical climbs but some require use of ice axe and crampons, good bush skills to negotiate untracked rainforest and mountain scrub, boulder hopping, and unbridged river crossings. Created by peakery member Glenn Johnston.
