The Bridge to Nowhere

28 April - We had an easy one hour walk from Puketotara hut down to the Whanganui River to wait for our jet boat to arrive.

A misty morning - view from Puketotara hut

First views of Whanganui River



The river's edge - no jetty here!
Waiting in the warm sun for our jet boat.  Several kayakers passed us heading down river.

Mangapurua landing - start of the walk to the Bridge to Nowhere
