Description
Mid Greenstone Hut is managed and maintained by the local NZ Deerstalkers Association. A small fee is collected that goes towards
the maintenance and upkeep of the hut which is carried out by volunteers from the club. You do not have to be a member to stay at the hut. Advanced bookings are required.
Facilities
Its an old DOC hut so there are:-
Bunks for 12 people.
Mattresses and some pillows.
Kitchen bench, sink, table with stool type benches.
Wood/coal burner.
Drop toilet (away from the building behind the wood store).
Drinking water (from stream) and tap inside hut.
(During winter this tap is turned off as the pipe freezes and could burst, however there is ample water in the water tank with an outside tap but until the sun comes up it can freeze on very cold nights so fill up with water before you head to bed.)
LED solar powered lighting to reduce the fire risk, so no need for candles.
USB charging point - bring your own cable.
Axe and saw.
Plates, cups, glasses, knives and forks and cooking utensils the spoons keep going missing so maybe take one or two.
Frying pans, plenty of cooking pots, large sized stock pot, medium and small saucepans, a skillet for meat, a cast iron dutch oven and a yoyo yogurt maker.
Gas cooker (2 burners) with a grill underneath, please remember to turn the gas off when you leave.
Meat safe (for hunters).
Pantry (with emergency food often left behind).
