Stan Lowe

We regret to advise that Stan passed away unexpectedly recently. We acknowledge his great contribution to the Kaimai before KRT was formed, and since its inception right until the end of August. We will shortly commence the search for a deerstalker to become a replacement trustee so that hunting interests continue to be well represented in our collective mission to ensure the Kaimai is great place for all to visit.

Tony Walton

Tony lives in Auckland and is our secretary and treasurer. He is president of the Auckland Tramping Club and a member of the Federated Mountain Clubs executive committee. He is also responsible for fund raising and maintenance of our website. He regularly organises multi day maintenance work parties for many of the Kaimai tracks
