The Canterbury University Tramping Club (CUTC) is one of the largest sports clubs at the University of Canterbury.[1] It was formed for the pursuit of outdoor activities, mainly tramping, mountaineering and climbing. Club members also go mountain biking, kayaking and skiing. Most members are students, staff or recent graduates of the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand. The club has weekly meetings during term time, and multiple trips going away most weekends.

History

The club dates back to before 1934[2], first being known as the 'Canterbury College Tramping Club', then later 'Canterbury University College Tramping Club'[3] and finally 'Canterbury University Tramping Club'.

Around 1967 the related University of Canterbury Canoe Club was formed by members of the tramping club.[4]

Avoca Hut

The Avoca Hut, situated in the Craigieburn Forest Park, is a 6-bunk 'raised A-frame' design hut, built in 1947[10].

The Canterbury University Tramping Club is still responsible for its maintenance, with a committee role specifically for the hut.

Steeds Hut

In the mid 1950s the club took over Steeds Hut situated in Arthur's Pass Village. Its location is noted on a map inside the local train station.

The hut was sold in the 1990s after failing multiple building WOFs[11].

TWALK

TWALK (from twenty-four hour walk) is an annual rogaining event run the club. It is the largest event organised by the club, with participants travelling from across New Zealand to compete. The event has been run every year since 1967.

The purpose of creating the event was stated in the original report by organizer Greg Martin:

{{quote|text= The 24 Hour walk provides a unique opportunity for personal evaluation of performance under the stimulation of competition; competition which provides an incentive (for the serious competitor) second only to a real life emergency situation. But this competitive atmosphere exists within a framework of safety precaution. Navigation and night travel skills essential to 24 Hour Walk success are an asset to any tramper.[12]

}}A movie titled '50 Years of TWALK' was created to celebrate the history of the unique event, which premiered in 2017[13].

Publications

The University of Canterbury Library has an archive of tramping club publications dating back to the 1940s[14].

Magazine

The club used to distribute newsletters on a quarterly basis.[15]

TROG

TROG (trips-log) is a book published by the CUTC covering events of the year. Although described as an annual it often has large lapses between publications. It was last published in 2014.[15]
