Cornwallis Loop

13 June 2010- First experimental run in the Waitaks. Plotted out the course thanks to the Waitaks map I obtained earlier in the week. Parked in Cornwallis off Huia road. Very wet trails with lots of surface water. Steady climb up the Panto track with views down to Langholm. After thirty minutes we turned down the Parau track which descended very steeply to the Kakamatua Stream then climbed steeply before undulating to join the Kakamatua track. This section did prove to be a bit of a scramble. The Kakamatua rose to give views down to the Huia Dam along a small ridge. Final section along the Farley track was a great bit of single trail.
