“Every season up to 5,000 trampers pass through the Mid-Caples Hut on New Zealand’s Greenstone-Caples Track. The lucky ones have met Tanya the Hut Warden, who revels in her duties out in the wilderness, but especially in sharing her passion for the outdoors and conservation with the trampers she meets. In teaching people about the wild around them, she gives them the heart connection that motivates them to protect it. And she has a heckin’ fun time along the way”.
