Kevin Isemonger continues his account of celebration treks in the South Island.
Tuesday morning, we caught up with Allen and Rob, and Allen was keen to drive back up the Lillybank Road to show Rob the Macauley crossing. He had previously completed a successful trip up to the Macauley Hut with a ‘tagalong’ tour.
We headed off and got some great photos of ‘Fendah’ crossing the braided river when a flat-deck Hi-Lux came up behind us and pulled alongside to inform us that the Godley was closed and the Macauley was badly scoured out due to significant rain of recent times
We headed south
