HiTAC November 2026

President’s Report

Kia ora koutou,

What a mixed bag of weather, a snowfall a couple of weeks ago which I hope some of you were able to take advantage of! Plus, some sunshine to invite us to the slopes!

Open climb concession is in its final stages. My understanding is that Te Tōpuni Ngarahu has requested an extension so the application can go before the board. I should hear around the 11th November, so all going to plan, the tickets will go on sale then.

Please be aware that we can’t offer this unique experience with the maunga without you, our loyal volunteers! See you at club night 5th Nov (note change of venue Beach Street Hall) to complete the safety presentation & register your willingness to help us with this event. If you are unable to attend, please contact me directly. Thanks!

Hope you get to enjoy some time as the lodge and on the maunga!

See you on the slopes.

Sheryl – Madam President
President – Taranaki Alpine Club
