Tags: New Zealand, RTW 2005/2006, South IslandAnother backblog which I started when I just got back from a day hike up Mount Ollivier in the Mount Cook Area.
10/05/06
The day started slow as weather forecast was poor and it was pretty cloudy so visibility of and in the mountains was expected to be poor.

Tags: New Zealand, RTW 2005/2006, South IslandJust a quicky..
Went on a few walks in Mt Cook area for the last few days.
Weather was mostly overcast with a few nice spells yesterday and despite contrary forecasts today turned out to be a fabulous, sunny day..
Yesterday (09/05/06) I walked up Tasman Valley to see Tasman Galcier and took a longer hike up Ball Shelter for a great view of Mt Cook.
Today (10/05/06) I went up Mt Ollivier with a couple to Sealy Tarns and Mueller Hut, a Mountain hut at around 1750m. This was a pretty step day hike climbing 1000m and reaching snowy hights but was well worth it for the spectacular views plus we were very lucky with the weather…
Sealy Tarns and Mueller Hut Hike Photos
Heading off tomorrow towards east coast again to Otago and further down.
Plenty of coastal area to explore with pleny of wildlife.. should be fun.

Tags: New Zealand, RTW 2005/2006, South IslandThey call it the Inland Scenic Route 72 and it is the recommended route to drive from Christchurch to Mt Cook, bypassing the main tourist tracks.

Tags: New Zealand, RTW 2005/2006, South IslandCatching up again wth blogs as I am at Mt Cook right now but here is what I did during my 2nd trip to Banks Peninsula about a week ago.. and it’s along one..
Back from my 2nd trip to Banks Peninsula. Seemingly I like the area as I have spent another 4 days exploring the region…
