DOC Intentions Forms
These must be completed by anyone going to any of the Alpine Huts (climbers & skiers). You can do this at the DOC Visitors Centre in Aoraki/Mt.Cook Village, or we do have a few spare forms if you forget. For the hunting huts, you are not required to complete these forms.
Backloads and Combining Flights
