Well, I was all packed and ready to head out on the trail for my next hike south.
Sunday night DOC announced it was closing campgrounds nationwide, of which I had to use 3 over the Pureora Forest Timber Trail.
Then on Monday, the Government announced a complete Level 4 shutdown of the country for the coming Thursday.
So sadly, I have had to hang up my boots, stow my walking stick and postpone the continuation of my journey until Springtime, all going well with our beautiful nation and its wonderful people.
So everyone, thankyou for you kind support so far and we will share more adventures soon.
Be kind and be strong
PS As I can't put any new photos in my gallery, I will share some more of my journey so far.
