Year 12 Kahurangi Tramp

Discussions on the merits of FM radio, frozen mince and the occasional piece of navigation training entertained year 12 students as they traversed the ridges and valleys of Kahurangi National Park on a three day navigation and tramping assessment. Students were put under pressure to navigate through the bush to predetermined points and prove themselves worthy to be called skillful navigators. With map and compass, sweaty brows and a few false turns, most got their group to the correct locations and some discovered that limestone bluffs don't always appear on maps, eh Matt!
