Lower Roding Falls
Easy
From the Aniseed Valley public road end a 4WD road is walked to the old copper smelter remains beside the United Creek. Backtracking a short distance, a route is followed up the Roding river to the falls with a pool large enough to have a dip. Wet feet cannot be avoided. Will be done at a leisurely pace.
9 - 14 February

Fit or Hard
Date flexible. Approx 6 days. From Mt Robert car park - Speargrass Hut - Lake Angelus - Sunset Saddle - Hopeless Creek - Travers River - Travers Saddle - Sabine River - Speargrass Saddle - Mt Robert car park. I'm also open to suggestions if anyone has another long trip they would like to do instead, either in Nelson Lakes or elsewhere.
