Information

Mt Hutt is closed today. Not a good day to be in the mountains with low viz, strong winds, extremely cold wind chill and challenging access conditions. Tomorrow is looking fantastic - light winds and sunshine. Hopefully you can adjust your plans and we'll see you back up here tomorrow.
