The trust was delighted with the surprise news that “Shelter from the Storm authors Rob Brown, Shaun Barnett and Geoff Spearpoint had nominated the trust to recieve a donation in conjunction with Craig Potton publishing and Scorpio Books where the book was recently launched.
Shelter from the Storm celebrates New Zealand’s unique backcountry hut network with a huge range of beautiful photographs and a wide ranging history of their stories. Garry Moore, who gave a short address and thanks to the authors at the launch recommends this book highly. “What excellent people produced the book,” states Garry. “I am reading it at nights. Pam and I thought we might set a goal of visiting a number of them over the years. We’ll start with the easy ones!”
