Trips
The normal transport cost is $20 including GST, unless we’re travelling further afield.
The Grade is measured assuming a reasonably fit person with some tramping experience.
E = Easy (4-6 hours with undemanding terrain)
M = Moderate (4-6 hours that may include some steep walking) and
H = Hard. This could involve tramping for more than 7 hours in tough country
E/M = Options for both easy and medium tramps
