Beaver Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 What, you ask? A bunch of dudes, interspersed with those of the fairer sex, chilling out, spinning yarns, sipping on refreshing beverages, with some questionable music in the background. Will also be throwing of rocks into the river until we get sore arms, some dam building, Frisbee etc. Where? Otaki Forks DOC campground http://www.doc.govt.nz/parks-and-recreation/places-to-go/wellington-kapiti/places/tararua-forest-park/things-to-do/campsites/otaki-forks-campsite/ When? December 16, meet at the Plimmerton weigh station (map below) at midday, and we will head off in convey from there. For those that cant make that time, no dramas, see you at camp! https://www.google.co.nz/maps/place/Plimmerton+Weigh+Station/@-41.0771871,174.8736812,327m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x6d3f56a34ebebe7d:0x16191115f11b57eb!8m2!3d-41.0770214!4d174.8733397 So clean our your chilly bins, chuck bread tags on your jandels so you don't have any blowouts, and come work on your tshirt tans. Tents, vans, wagons, sedans, and even coupes are welcome. A few of us will have same gayzeboes so don't worry about a little moisture. Bring cash for camp fees (although says eftpos is available...) $8 per adult, $4 per kid (up to 17 yrs). Beaver, out. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nominal Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Went for a swim in the Otaki River this evening, lower down near the road suspension bridge. Water was nice and warm. Heaps of people there though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 How far from where we normally camp is a swimming hole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted December 7, 2017 Author Share Posted December 7, 2017 There is a swimable area like 100m down the river from where we normally camp (follow the track to the river spec), and then a better one (more pool like) a short distance back up the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
