[edit] Plans
Currently at an internet cafe and rapidly running out of credit looking at maps. This hash is close to my current location and so very close to a track I have been reconnoitering up Mt Hauhungatahi (1521 m, Old Baldy!) Coincidence? I think not!
[edit] Expedition
All I can say is its 171 m that way... (points...) Feeling rather disheartened just looking at the extrapolated hash location, I stepped over the train-track and ventured a mere 10 m inwards to find a water filled channel running parallel to the train-tracks. Literally already in over my head in thick New Zealand native bush, I gave up...but it looked so easy on the map (sulk).
[edit] Photos
Its 171 m that way (points...) a spur to Old Baldy in the background
600 m between hash (upper) and trail head to Old Baldy (lower)
Erua, a very very very small settlement in the Central Plateau
