Premature opening-out of schrunds and crevasses, however, added to the diffi culty of the greater climbs; a great advance was made in the use of crampons. Mt. Cook was ascended three times by th e Linda route : On December 19, 1927, by three guides- Vic Williams, A1f Brustad, J ack Pope-in 19 hours. This party established a record by being absent from the Hermitage only three days. On J anuary 4, 1928, by Mr. Eric Lewis, Vic Williams, and J ack Pope. On J anuary 12, 1928, by Mr. R. Aubin and J ack Pope . The low peak of Mt. Cook was also ascended , after long neglect, by Mr. B. Murray and Vic Williams. Two ascents were made of the Minarets and Footstool, and one each of Malte Brun, Hamilton, and Darby. Professor and Mrs. Algie, with A1f Brustad and K. Grinling, made a very successful expedition up the Murchison Valley. They made the first ascent of Bell Peak (9250 ft.) and of two smaller unnamed peaks to th e north of it, and the second ascent of th e two­ peaked Mt. Hutton (9297 ft.). The first winter ascent of Elie de Beaumont (10,200 ft.) was made on September 13, 1928, by Mr.H .

    West Coast Conservancy

    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand WEST COAST CONSERVANCY Karamea Estuary (45) Location: 41o16'S, 172o06'E. 1 km southwest of Karamea, South Island. Area: c.666 ha. Altitude: Sea level. Overview: A moderately large, shallow estuary exhibiting a transition from sea to freshwater and land, with inter-tidal mudflats, saltmarshes and swamps protected from the sea by a low barrier beach and dune system. The estuary is surrounded by considerable areas of farmland, but is particularly important for its high avifaunal, ecological and archaeological values. Physical features: A moderately large but shallow estuary, 5 km long and one km wide, with extensive mudflats, sandflats and saltmarshes. Resting on a low-lying prograded beach and alluvial surface beneath a 100 m marine terrace, it is divided into two distinct parts (north and south), with interchanges of water only at times of flood and high tides. The northern part of the estuary is fed primarily by the Karamea River, and the larger southern part is fed primarily by Granite Creek and Kongahu Swamp. The estuary is bounded to the west by the Tasman Sea, and to the east by the Karamea plains. Historical changes, such as land development and coastal erosion, have significantly altered the hydrology of the estuary. Ecological features: Karamea Estuary is a valuable example of an estuarine system with tidal mudflat and saltmarsh communities. The mudflats are rich in weed (e.g. eelgrass Zostera novazelandica) and benthic invertebrates (e.g. Amphibola crenata and Austrovenus stutchburyi). The marginal saltmarsh and swamp vegetation includes Samolus repens, Leptocarpus similis, Juncus spp.
