Kapakapnui Circuit and Thornhills Hut

A day trip into the sunny Tararua's with Jessie doing the Kapakapanui circuit and bagging Thornhills Hut while we where at it. We got to the trig and it was cold and claggy with no views. Headed back down to the 900m contour to bag Thornhills Hut, by the time we got there it was sunny.

Then back up to the top and on to Kapakapanui Hut for a bite to eat, then a quick blast back down to the car.
