"Daytrip from the Holdsworth campground, there was a cloud layer from approx 1100-1300m, but lovely and clear on top, even very little wind. Checked out the new Powell Hut, very flash 😁" — jojo11 • Mar 23, 2021
"Walked up from Kaiparoro Rd, track is no longer maintained by DOC but initial part through logging tracks is marked, and then upper section also marked, very easy to follow. There is a side track near the summit that leads to a plane wreckage." — jojo11 • Mar 18, 2021
"Hiked up from Putara Road end, had intended to go on to Ruapae and East Peak, but rain and strong winds picking up. Spent the night at Herepai hut, heavy rain all night, and back out to road end late morning." — jojo11 • Oct 11, 2020
"Cold but clear day, unfortunately cloud sitting just on the summit. Tuteremoana is on Kapiti Island nature reserve, so we took plenty of breaks to see many native birds along the way." — jojo11 • Jun 5, 2017
"got up at 4.45am so we could be at the car park at 6.30, all went well and we started our hike (we are not trampers at all just day hikers) it took us 5.5 hours to do the first leg with many stops and rest's. once we got to the hut we quickly enjoyed lunch and seeing the great views. it took 4.5 hours due to 85% being down hill. we are now all very sore and can hardly move and are dreading what its going to feel like tomorrow but weather was great.
