SUMMARY:Waihohonu Hut & Club History Trip | Club Event
DESCRIPTION:\n \nHold the date! Catherine Gafa is is organising a club event to this hi
 storic hut. It's also near where the club was first founded! More informati
 on to come. \nCLUB HISTORY\nOur founders were William (Bill) Mead, a railwa
 y draughtsman stationed at Ngaruawahia, and Bernard Drake, a railway clerk 
 of Wellington. Imbued with an adventurous spirit, they imported two pairs o
 f skis from Switzerland, as well as a British ski instruction book which pr
 ovided them with the rudiments of their new sport. They tested their skis i
 n July 1913 on the eastern (Desert Road) slopes of Ruapehu near the Waihoho
 nu Hut, and on their fifth day the pioneers began their first ski tour, rea
 ching the present Whakapapa skifield. Mead and Drake promptly formed the Ru
 apehu Ski Club, posting a notice at the Waihohonu Hut, and returned in the 
 summer of 1913 to make on Boxing Day the first ascent to the crater with sk
 is. They then made the first runs down the Whakapapa Glacier.\n
