South Island Adventureshttps://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/blogs/siadventures/atom.aspxCommunity Server2007-11-06T13:10:00ZLotsofadventureshttps://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/blogs/siadventures/archive/2008/01/28/lotsofadventures.aspx2008-01-28T22:13:00Z2008-01-28T22:13:00Z<P>Hey hey, just to let you all know that your president and co are not MIA but are in fact still bumming round the south island having adventures in the mountains!</P>
<P>So far we (including at various stages Terra, Sophie, Jeremy, Alyn, Guy, Annabel, Ben, Andrea, Olly) have succeeded in not getting to the Olivine Ice Plateau, hitching round the south island trying to get back to the car, climbing Mount Aspiring, sleeping in the bushes in Wanaka, clambering up dodgy rock and ice slopes in Mt Cook, Jeremy dropping crampon off top of aforesaid dodgy ice slope on Mt Sealy, climbing Nuns Veil (and running into Glenn Pennycook up there, for those that know him) and wandering round up the top of the Tasman Glacier getting buzzed by ski planes! Plus a bit of rock climbing in between, plenty of drinking and eating here with Annabel and Andrea in Mt Cook village and generally getting up to mischief and having lots of fun!</P>

<P>I'll put some more photos up and write some trip reports when I get back - which will be early next week sometime unfortunately! Hope your all having plenty of adventures anyway and I'll catch you all at the pub sometime and organise plenty more for next month!</P>
<P>Cheers,</P>
