I made the mistake of waiting as well. It's still down.

They sorted it out sometime this morning and I've made my booking. I'm a bit confused by it as I couldn't find the form controls for ordering fine weather. :lol:

Some departure dates have already been fully (or nearly) booked already.

I'm starting the walk on 16 December. I've planned for 7 nights on the track to allow for side trips. I'm excited! :D :D

That's a good time of year to go weather wise (well, as likely as good as any), and 8 days is a good time to enjoy the walk. Plenty of time to either take it easy, or do plenty of side trips. You should have a great time!
