Who’s standing Scott Waldrom for Wainui? chases sevens’ P12-13 top job P72 The Hutt News Tuesday, September 13, 2016 The man who saved Sir Ed

NICHOLAS BOYACK

A former climbing partner of Sir Edmund Hillary feels immense pride for helping save the life of the great man on a perilous Himalayan expedition. Brian Wilkins is not well known outside the climbing world but in 1954 he changed history in a little-known high altitude res- cue. Wilkins taught at College and is a vice-president of the Taita Cricket Club. Now 90, and living in Kelburn, Wilkins and Hillary were part of a New Zealand Alpine Club attempt on Makalu in Nepal – the world’s fifth highest peak – which nearly led to disaster. The dramatic rescue doesn’t feature in TVNZ’s Hillary, which Wilkins says doesn’t accurately replicate the high-altitude climb- ing scenes, and misses the mark on Sir Ed’s tense relationship with his father. One year after shooting to fame by climbing Mt Everest, Hillary embarked on an expedition which went badly for him from the start. Burdened with the expectations which came from making history on his Everest ascent, Hillary was under- prepared physically and mentally, says Wilkins. The situation got worse for Hil- lary, who by then was Sir Brian Wilkins, centre, with Charles Evans, left, and Sir Edmund Hillary on Makalu in 1954.

We’re celebrating the new Avalon Park Playground with a special launch for the community. Hutt City Council and contractors have been working hard to have the new Avalon Park Playground ready so it can be enjoyed by families, originally for 11 September. Despite our best efforts, Council and contractors have not been able to meet that deadline to complete it. We’ve agreed that it’s best to postpone the opening until 2 October. The playground combines new and custom-made play equipment in a specially designed landscape to make it one of the most contemporary playgrounds in New Zealand. There’s a zone for the under-ives and water play. The over-ives will love the more challenging and adventurous zones, which include climbing equipment, tunnels, and a new twin ying fox. Make a day of it, have a picnic, and be the irst to discover other exciting features and enjoy the variety of special launch activities and entertainment.
