    @johnd Do you remember this hut, just upstream on the Clarence a bit from your second photo on OP? Bluff Stream.

    @Mathias, dont exactly remember the hut, the colour seems familiar if that makes sense, the land looks pretty green though!
    So was it on the Muzzle station? Looks to be up one of the side streams ? Tiger country for sure.

    Some of the back country huts are only still there because they are maintained by the likes of NZDA and some Alpine Trusts/clubs , thumbs up to anyone who’s ever been involved in maintaining one .

    Went up there for a look once but by that stage the pot belly was already rotted out and the place wasn't very inviting. It was in a great area.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
