End of March. Looks like the weather reports can be of some value only about 2 or 3 days ahead; if longer - it is pure guessing...Also Auckland weather appears to be quite different from the west coast of the South island...

Prepare for rain. God, I remember tramping and camping out that way years and years ago, rained for 11 days. My feet were rotting so finally gave up the outdoors for a bunk at a quonset hut run at an RV park that was filled with campers who were similarly soaked to the bone. The smell of thoroughly soaked flesh and charred clothes and scorched vulcanized cloth (people were holding their soaked clothes and tent flies over a cast iron wood stove) haunts me to this day. Still, it was a glory to be dry, indoors and puttering about in a clean dry lava lava.
