Ball Glacier


For Ruth and Peter's first overnight tramp we ended up leaving the car just before dusk to walk into Ball Shelter. A recent road washout meant we couldn't drive as far as we had hoped, even with Caddy.

So after a night camping outside the new (tiny) Ball Shelter, we headed up the hillside. to be rewarded with fabulous views of the Caroline Face of Mount Cook and up the Tasman Valley.
