Trolltunga Norway (in the snow)
Our first proper trip out into the hills since our move to Norway. Trolltunga is a popular tourist destination in the summer but also a magical, quiet place in the colder months.

Remarkables Grand Traverse
Переглядів 1,2 тис.3 роки тому
Finally bagged the world famous in NZ classic day route, on the fourth attempt. Fringe season conditions so somewhat mixed but leaning towards nice warm rock. Didn't quite beat the standing speed run record, maybe next time! Music is by a good friend of mine - check them out! Time To Talk, Azertion & JJD - Street Lights (Ft.

Mt Brewster (SW Face)
Переглядів 6853 роки тому
A sustained steep snow/ice climb via the South West Face on Brewster. The true summit was blocked by a risky loose rock and snow section so we settled for the view a couple of metres below it!
Mt Manakau

Mt Uwerau
Переглядів 6175 років тому
Our second attempt at the Manakau ~ Uwerau traverse, this time taking a slightly different tactic and going for Uwerau first. We called it on the top of Uwerau in favour of another attempt via the traditional route later in the year. This route up Uwerau is not supposed to involve so much scree and rock fall risk, but was the only feasible route we could find. The Seawards are not the most invi...

Girdlestone Peak (South Face)

A successful climb of Girdlestone Peak Ruapehu via the South Face. We picked a line just off the side of the SW buttress with some interesting route finding along the way. Good snow conditions albeit a little loose in places.
Pinnacle Traverse

Full traverse of the Pinnacle Ridge from North to South at Whakapapa, Ruapehu. Stuck ropes and soft snow slowed us down considerably, but we got through it, highly recommended!

Mt Annette via Sebastapol ridge
Переглядів 9136 років тому
On New Year's Day 2018 we hit the trail at 7:30am to attempt to climb Mt Annette via Mt Sebastapol and its West ridge. We managed to get to within ~100m of the top of the edge of the Annette Plateau, before slushy (and lack of) snow, high risk of rockfall, and lack of time forced us to turn around and descend.
