Notes gaiters, canvas ankle wraps with buckled leather straps Donor's story- "I would have joined the Alpine Sports Club c1971. I was sharing a flat in Burnley Terrace, Mount Eden with three engineers who were already members and it seemed like a fun thing to do as a University student. See the country - bush and meet people of like interests etc We would meet once a month at Saint Mark’s Church Hall in Remuera (just up from Newmarket ), where we would listen to a talk on a particular tramp-ski trip either done or planned, watch a slide show and have a cup of tea. You no doubt know the sort of thing. The Club was well run with plenty of experienced types who could lead quite challenging tramps or just take ski trips to Mount Ruapehu. They put out a great magazine every month recording Club activities. I attended and assisted in bush craft training sessions in the bush (mainly Waitakerie based at their Hut there) and camping by rivers where we would practice safe river crossings. The Club owned two huts on the mountain at the “Top of the Bruce”. One was known as the “A Frame”. They also had one in the Waitakeries. They had working bees to help build them as I recall but that was before I came along. I believe the Club still exists but I have lost contact since the late 1970s through being overseas and in the Far North . We went to the Kaimais, the Kaimanewas, the Ruahenies, Lake Waikeremoana the Whakatane River (sp.), Coromandels, Ohinemuri River etc. etc. so were away many weekends and holidays."
