North Island Weekend Tramps
by Shaun Barnett, 146pp limpbound, Craig Potton Publishing, Nelson 2002, RRP$29.95. Shaun Barnett knows the bush and what a fit person can encompass in a weekend. Time out, of course, would depend in what part of the North Island is nearby. This book begins in the Bay of Islands, heading south by way of Great Barrier Island and the Waitakere Ranges in Auckland.
Each region of the North Island gets two or three walks, sometimes more. Some are relatively simple, such Waikereiti in Te Urewera, or the Cape Kidnappers gannets. Others are for those more familiar and fit for the bush. Sketch maps and Shaun Barnett’s spectacular colour photographs make this a book to savour possible trips.
