The Rimutaka March

The 34th Reinforcement leaving the Rimutaka Road summit during the march from Featherston to Trentham.
The first march began on 23 September 1915 (7th Reinforcement), starting a routine in which almost every reinforcement (1000-2000 soldiers) marched over two nights and three days to Trentham Camp, just before embarking for the front. The Wairarapa Patriotic Association provided a meal at the Rimutaka Summit on the first day.
