    Taranaki

    Taranaki this weekend!! 

     Will be awesome - an absolutely beautifull mountain, fabulous views, and some ice on the top for those who are keen! :)

     This is a basic mountaineering trip ie there is snow all the way, and it is steep and exposed in places. That means that you need to be comfortable walking in crampons and self arresting to come. It is also a 2518m mountain, so a good level of fitness is also required. But saying all this it is well worth the effort! :)

     The plan is to drive up fri night, then walk to the summit saturday, camp up there, have a play around, then come down sunday.

     

    Please contact me if you are keen.

     

    Terra :)
