About this word search
Tramping is the Kiwi word for hiking, and the Department of Conservation looks after the huts and tracks, the Great Walks included. In a hut you write your name in the hut book, and in your pocket you carry scroggin, a mix of nuts, raisins and chocolate.
The grid is fourteen by fourteen, with words across, down or diagonally, never backwards. River crossing and locator beacon are the longest at thirteen letters. Map is only three. Look for the double G in scroggin and the Y in billy. Swing bridge, Great Walk and head torch run together.
Plan a short family tramp and use the list as a packing check.
