Spine of the Fish Day 55 – To the Beach
Roadwalking is sometimes a necessary evil when you're trail hiking.
Wow Central Southern Alps Traverse
"One of the most astounding aspects of the Southern Alps is its wilderness areas. While signs are useful and huts are helpful, there are few locales left on Earth, much less in such pristine environments as the Alps, where no indication of human impact is anywhere to be seen. Wilderness areas defy every inherent aspect of human nature – to find, to organize, and to claim. But within the Southern Alps, there exist pockets where snowy footprints are the most permanent presence any human can hope to have. Aircraft are forbidden to land. No signs. No huts. No nonsense."
Kahurangi Roar of the Lion
Our adventure into the Roaring Lion valley was inspired by a trip the previous year which had given my three companions an all-too-short sneak preview of the river.
