Cheeseman Ski Tour

Weeks before the ski field opens, Helen, Neil and Anthony made the most of the good weekend weather and generous dump of snow in Canterbury earlier in the week to ski up Cheeseman.

Castle Hill Basin

Morning after

Below freezing temps overnight means things are a bit icy out today but looking stunning.

Queens Birthday in Wanaka

Not enough snow on the hills yet so on Saturday we rode the great Glendu Bay mountain bike track.



On Sunday we headed up Breast Hill from Lake Hawea, one of the best day walks around. Interesting walking up a narrow ridge and great views from Tutoko, Aspriing to Mount Cook.
