Another small batch from my central Darrans trip b Another small batch from my central Darrans trip back in late Feb, early March. Our second to last night was spent camped on rock slabs between Taiaroa & Tuhawaiki, and from there we scrambled both of those peaks the following day, before heading down to Rainbow Lake for the final night.
