Scouting the mountains
March 22, 1984
Plenty of visitors walk the Tongariro track through Tongariro National Park in the middle of the North Island. We went there a couple of times as scouts and spent the weekend sleeping in the Dept of Conservation hut at Mangatapopo.
It's a really great area and lots of fun in both summer and winter with Mt Ruapehu, Mt Ngarahoe and of course Mt Tongariro all sitting on each other's shoulders.
