Ski Mountaineering Course based from Plateau hut last season - an amazing venue with fantastic terrain!

Get stoked to get into the big mountains - learn the basics to increase your safety or hone the skills you already have.

Just back from a slightly extended packrafting trip into the Pelorous River with @jessicas.wanderlust

Dropping flooded rivers gave us the perfect flow to experience this awesome river

Got to visit 4 huts / stay in 2, lots of wildlife and paddle some really fun water

Amazing opportunities in the past 10 days in #NZ for just about any kind of sport .... However tge conditions were so epic that there was no doubt for me - #paragliding in the last week has meant I’ve pushed through a series of #headspace barriers and have been experiencing some flying I’ve only dreamed of achieving in the past

A great day out with spring touring conditions in tge Gamack range - Mt Cook National Park. A timely reminder about potential spring hazards with a size 4 avalanche running in the recent past out of the steep terrain in the region we were in. The cause? Likely heavy rain loading of a isothermic snowpack that failed to ground

After a very Intense 7 day storm cycle we finally managed to get out of the mountains after being hut bound - litterally - for 7 days while over 2 m of snow was
A blown away by severe gale NW winds
B and then around 3m of snow was again deposited by a intense and unseasonally cold NW Snow event

Epic conditions post storm at The Grand Plateau with 40cm of non wind effected powder. We kept it conservative on this particular day - with a freezing level rapidly rising to 3000m it paid to keep things relatively low angle with low consequence
