Shaun Barnett, Rob Brown and Geoff Spearpoint have produced with help from Craig Potton Publishing a picture book that tells the story of NZ Backcountry Huts.
The Wellington book launch will be at the TTC Clubrooms at 8pm on Monday 12 Nov, hosted by the Wellington Section of the NZAC.
If you want to come along rsvp to Shaun Barnett:
Signed copies of the book will be available for $63.99 as will some free snacks.
Shaun and Geoff will give a slideshow and Richard Davies will be doing the introductions.
I received my copy of this book a few days ago, and anecdotally it looks wonderful. So far I’ve only read the introduction but it flows well, and there are plenty of full-colour interesting photographs throughout the book.
With some care I think it’d make a perfect tramping companion book for something similar to a club-rated medium-fit trip between Holdsworth and a place like Totara Flats and back, maybe over a long weekend.
