Nick Walking in the Tararua’s

“Nick (shown in photo, with his absolutely beautiful Macpac Torre – A genuine antique.) and I met in Nelson Lakes NP when I came to NZ to do some tramping. That trip changed me – From then on I knew that NZ would just keep calling me back. What an amazing place. Nick told me to ring him next time I was over, and I did. He organised a 2-day walk in his stomping ground – the Tararua’s. An amazing walk – quite different to the walks I did in the south island. (One thing was in common – rain!)
I’ll be back again though. I can feel it calling me!” – David
