- Hey everyone, I thought while we are still just after this amazing hoar frost we've been a part of over the last week, I'd put up a few of the shots of these incredible winter scenes. Taken around the Mackenzie Basin In New Zealand's South Island.
I'm very far behind real time with our regular vlogs, but while this is still fresh in our minds, lets take a look now.

Absolutely stunning scenery. Look forward to the full edit
Cheers man, i got a lot of stuff to show you guys, was an adventure being in a caravan in those conditions, bloody awesome though.
Just stunning. Thanks for capturing this so beautifully.
Thanks mate, awesome beauty aye.
Absolutely STUNNING, thank you again for showing off our amazing country 🎉
So cool aye, we live in an amazing part of the world.
Pretty magical scenes. Thanks for sharing
Amazing scenes alright. Just magic.
what a brilliant record of the hoar frost, awesome video
Thanks John, so cool to have someone to share it with good fun making memories aye.
Awesome scenery Mike. Thats for sharing
Thanks mate, awesome spot, pity it didn't happen sooner for you .
Absolutely love this part of the South Island.
yea it's pretty special in the Mackenzie Basin alright.
Stunning
Thank you! Cheers!
Winter Wonderland. Drones are great. You have been so blessed to capture the beauty of a Kiwi winter. Sooooo much better than looking at Ardern's face. Thanks mate for sharing and rekindling memories of old.
As a Queenslander (struggling with a Queensland winter) my eye balls just froze watching this haha. So beautiful, love this corner of the world.
@@lettyelspeth lol... What makes it not as cold is the lack of wind. Wind chill is the killer it's amazing waking up to everything frozen, water, ponds lakes, you'll see all that in the longer vlog
@@leopardsgowild wind definitely adds extra cold! Layering is key 🔑 and heating in the van. Looking forward to seeing more of the winter wonderland soon!
Wow!! What a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing. 👍
Thanks, it's a magical part of NZ up here.
i am mesmerized all the Mackenzie country is amazing
Yea it's a stunning area, so barren and empty, but so stunningly beautiful
Stunning stunning stunning
Thanks, it sure was a stunning sight.
Wow so pleased I stumbled onto your video. Looks freezing but stunning visuals. Love the music track too. 👌🙂
@@peterandlesleyvl thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it
Absolutely magic mate. Thank you for sharing. Hullo to the family. And Safe travels.
thanks man, and your welcome.
@@leopardsgowild 👍
I love the little pops of colour every now and then in the white and grey landscape.
Yea, we didn't really get the blue sky, which is awesome when it breaks through... Amazingly I took those last drone shots, went back to the caravan, we packed up and left and the whole lot was gone, minus some pine trees that still had some on the south side of the tree, pretty incredible
stunning. Next year I will see this live ..
Nice, it's pretty awesome. have to play the patience game though it took a long time this year.
Stunning, almost unreal.. have never seen hoarfrost Thanks for posting
yea it's a true winter wonderland, and an incredible experience, you do have to enjoy the cold.
Lovely. Just home from work and a new thing of beauty to watch before getting dinner started.
I’ve loved finding your vlogs (only recently while recovering from COVID) and have found some of the videos of places I’ve never been in my own country have brought me to tears they are so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your family and your journey.
awww thats amazing feedback... New Zealand is such a great place to live isn't it. We love exploring.
Thanks for sharing this magical winter wonderland experience with us. 💙❄Your drone footage and videoing of the hoar frost is stunning and those frosty landscapes and frozen fences look like they’re from a fairy tale.
If you ever have or get any questions about the benefits of living on the road, you only have to look at this video and the previous one on the Ashburton Lakes and there’s your answer.
Oh I reckon, I'm really in my happy place videoing all this lovely landscape and trying to capture it in a way to show it's detail but it's awe as well.
WOW stunning thank you
Your so welcome, thanks for watching.
Beautiful scenery
Oh yea it's so awesome aye, a rare scene these days the only time it's happened since last winter.
Just Wow ❤❤❤
pretty amazing alright.
Thank you for this amazing video! Greetings from @nami-vlog! Have a fantastic time💜💜💜💜💜👍
Thanks a lot.
Was brilliant (and much warmer) watching it through your footage. So awesome!
Oh I bet others have commented about watching it in front of the fire....
Stunning thanks
Thanks mate, it's a site to behold alright.
Wow beautiful view, thank you. Plus there have been some outdoor curling games because the ponds have frozen…we heard the interview on RNZ. Meanwhile in the North Island we get more rain.
Oh I really want to try Curling... poor old North Island can't get a decent run of good weather, hope this summer is a good one.
Wow! I could spend hours out in these landscapes with my camera. Bucket list photography.
Yea same I was out there a lot, I loved it, would love to see some more, hopefully in otaho
Wow. Stunning. Postcard perfect.. thanks for sharing.
Thank you, it sure is an incredible site.
Wow, Amazing, Spectacular scenery. Never seen anything like it. Best video I have seen in ages. Well done - It deserves an award! Sue
awwww thanks so much, pretty impressive to sight to see. Love it and so glad to have been there to capture it.
Love it♥️ sitting here watching it on our big tv screen and fire blazing.
I was expecting something like this knowing you were heading that direction. Traveled through the area a few months ago. Fabulous.
Thanks, a nice blazing fire sounds awesome. We've just plugged into a powered site for the first time in 3 weeks, it's nice to have the electric heater running, all the electric sockets powered, and there are no limits to the hot showers... Going to miss that level of cold though, into Central Otago we go and maybe we'll find some snow and big frosts, only half way through winter.
Wow, Mike, that was absolutely beautiful !! Drones have really made it possible to capture nature in all its glory. I hope you don't mind, but I did some screenshots the second time I watched this. Cheers mate.
Thanks
If you head over to the Leopardsgowild facebook page mate, you'll likely see all the best images any way.
Beautiful
Thanks mate, sure is/
A bleesing from above
For sure
Wow thanks Mike!
Any time!
My ex and l used to do the milkrun Timaru to Twizel 75 / 88 and had many hoar frosts like this ,have pitures of it back then enjoy your stay
Oh thats a pretty cold stretch through those parts.
Absolutely awesome. Great shots .
thanks a lot.
Beautiful it’s all I can say, thanks
it sure is, it's so detailed but so massive
This is just pretty. I love how you capture things.
Thanks its very beautiful.
Wow thanks for that pretty spectacular
ITS awesome aye, I just love it.
Hello from Mossburn! We drove through your way yesterday. Just beautiful. Thank you for the gorgeous video.
I imagine it was fog through then or was it back to freezing fog, it melts so fast...
Absolutely beautiful. You can see the lake slowly turning to ice.
Yea that was really cool to see, still pretty thin on the edges, but skimming rocks across was fun, listening to that noise the ice makes.
bet your'e loving those heated jackets now!
I tell ya what, they have been pretty awesome... You'll see when I get to the VLOG of camping in this, I was out wondering around in these conditions all day, was so epic having an awesome jacket.
Beautiful. I was wondering if you got to Twizel from Ashburton Lakes in time to see it. You've been rewarded by Nature for returning this winter. Looking forward to watching the main vlog.
We actually went to Geraldine, Tekapo, Twizel, then Aoraki Mt cook, before the hoar frost, videos are miles behind. So glad we got this though.
Amazing, stay warm and keep the episodes coming.👍😊
Thanks! Will do!
Wow! Great job.
Thanks, pretty stunning spot to be in the middle of winter... Not so fun when it's just fog.
That's crazy stunning!! Sad about the bus crash this morning though on the black ice. You can see why driving is so dangerous.
yea driving early mornings are so dangerous, you often see the grit trucks going on making the road safe, better to wait till later in the day.
wicked would you do another winter south? great videos thanks guys
@@leandalynch975 this is 2nd winter south we love it, currently parked up in the snow and Otago... Jump on our Facebook page see some real time stories and photos
Brilliant Man. and shitt you can Sing as well. haha
Ha ha, thanks for noticing my great vocals 😂😆
Thankyou,that was magical.
Thanks for watching, such an incredible display of Nature.
Epic 1 brother.. such a cool unique thing.. hope every1 is staying warm. Talk to yah soon✌️♥️🤙
Thanks Cam, do you guys get Hoar frost in michigan?
@@leopardsgowild no, as close to the lake as I am the only tome we get any fog is when the lake is significantly warmer than the air or vise versa and inland they get fog but when it gets cold it just snows lol
Wow this is so spectacular❤. Your one tuff family camping out in these conditions😂. How does this winter compare to last as far as the hoar frosts are concerned Mike?
It's a very awesome winter when it looks like this, currently in an inversion layer sitting at 3 degrees, so boring
❤
Thanks
A little background.
Hoar comes from old English meaning old.
Hoar frost causes trees, and such, to appear to be growing long white hair. Just like an old person. 🤓👍
interesting, it definitely transforms the landscape. I couldn't imagine a hoar frost that went on for weeks apparently in the 80's they had one that went for over 40 days in Twizel.
Absolutely amazing! What is the backing tune?
hey there, songs called Joy River, by a band called the Dramatics. I use the music off a subscription called Musicbed, all unknown artists trying to get discovered, but I believe they have some stuff on UA-cam
Yes it is very cold down there
cold, but it's worth it when it looks like this... Pretty depressing after it melted and then it's just fogged in and damp and muddy.
No good for solar panel recharging of the house battery. Luckily, you have a generator. Great country in the Mackenzie Basin.
Awesome spot alright, hopeless for solar in these conditions not much better even with the generator, batteries got so cold, could barely charge and barely hold charge, was a real battle.
Dumb question but are they gritting the roads there seem to be accidents every day?
Yes they do get gritted I feel the accidents are happening early in the morning when the roads are the most frozen
Time to break out the Hottie.
@@brucehardwick8824 yea we luckily scored some heated jackets getting plenty of use
Whatever happened to global boiling 😮😮😮😮😮
@@tlb2970 well this is becoming a very rare event use to occur most of winter, in the 1980s there was a hoar frost which lasted over 40 days, we've had 4 days of this for winter 2024
@@leopardsgowild but we weren’t supposed to have any snow at all 😱 what a surprise 😮
@@tlb2970 first I've heard. Talk to anyone farming for more than 10 - 15 years they'll tell ya winters are way warmer, we talked a guy whose been farming up at lake heron his whole life he said they used to ride horses across that lake in winter, doesn't even freeze over now.
Farming in the far north for 60 years and no significant change to seasons.
Looks lovely down there but would rather the 18 degrees in northland
@julieharris8562 Thats great, amazing you haven't had any changes in the Far North in the last 60 years. I love it up there.
Stunning
Oh it sure is, it blows my mind how beautiful it is.
