Labour Weekend

A wild Labour Weekend for 2025

Tuesday, 21 October

Well it sure is a bit breezy and damp out on the trail, over 120mm of rain in last 2 days, the Waiau Uwha running at above mean flood level and still more to come on Thursday, including snow and winds to over 150km/hr and stronger

As with last years storm, Labour Weekend will see extreme conditions on trail with the few trees we have likely to have dropped branches and definitely significant washouts to be expected

Take care

If you are in Hanmer Springs Saturday night (25 October) then come along to the Mountain Film Festival, a fundraising event for the St James Trails Trust - see you there at the Sports Pavilion 7.30pm - be inspired and motivated for that next adventure!
