Report

Supported with a crew meeting at Tukino Rd crossing and Ohakune Rd. I used a pacer from Tukino Rd to Ohakune Rd, and then Ohakune Rd to the finish. Water re-supply at the many Huts and creeks along the route. The route could for sure be done un-supported. An early start allowed me to miss the crowds on the Tongariro Crossing section. Absolutely stunning day with perfect conditions - albeit fairly hot through the Rangipo Desert.
