Rangi Taipo

A very long day outing from Carroll Hut. You must firstly climb Kellys Hill, descending steeply to the saddle on the Bald Range, and then follow a series of terraces to avoid the numerous buttresses on the ridgeback. There are steep ascents on slabby rock as the final approach to the summit is made. The track leading to the Taipo River is overgrown.
