Heading North...

So we 'finally' decided that we're kinda getting tired of living in a van so decided to head north again, aiming for Wellington where Helen has a 6 month job with GH lined up, via a few favourite and some new stops on the way.
Hemi's Crag, high above Lake Ohau in the MacKenzie Basin (near Mount Cook). A steep, gravelly drive up the ski access road (Bongo got a bit hot)

Lake Ohau

Looking towards Mount Cook (look closely and it's just hidden by the clouds at the head of the valley)

Climbing at Hemi's
Lake Pukaki and Mount Cook

Bouldering at the Pukaki Boulder in view of Mount Cook



We met up with Simon again in Twizel and took him off his standard KiwiExperience itinerary for a stop in at Castle Hill and to the Port Hills above Christchurch


Next stop; West Coast (if it isn't too rainy)
