Is anyone interested in doing the peak to powderkeg race? Basically is a race from top of Turoa to the powderhorn in Ohakune. It involves skiing, running, biking and beer sculling so sounds like it would be pretty good fun! Anywho's it's on the 13th of oct. Let me know if you are keen. It costs $50 but you get a half price lift ticket if you don't ...

Hey John, I'm probably keen - have been trying to get down there again for ages but haved failed for various reasons. It is definately an awesome place and there is potential for an awesome trip in the south of the island too if you want to avoid the people - its a bit of a harder trip but very doable. Not exactly sure what my situation ...

Hey guys, Anyone keen for some skiiage on Friday? Not sure if i'd just stay up there for the day, or possibly head to Tukino for a day in the weekend and do some top roped ice climbing. Let me know if there is any keeness anyway. The forecast for friday looks mint and there won't be the hoards of people around so skiing would be awesome! Craig

Not sure where yet - maybe something nice and easy like lake Waikaremoana. Hopefully mid week there wouldn't be many people around! It isn't entirely clear if backcountry hut passes are ok during winter on ...

yeah i'd be keen for some horse action too! I think jousting could be cool ...

Just to clarify - that budget is done on going all the way there and back - if I decide to scope off somewhere else climbing, I won't be asking you to pay for the expenses to get me home!

Righto, just realised this is the last week of uni before the holidays! I thought there was another one! Anyway I'm pretty sure my feet are going to be sweet for some stewart island missioning, so the plan is: Leave Monday 20th Aug in the morning and drive down to bluff. Get the ferry across to Stewart island on the tuesday morning and start ...

yeah but it does have a special self centering screwdriver for adjusting gun sights. It's clear that there is no need for vegetable preperation implements as you should only be eating possums, dear and goats - and while there is no tuning fork there is a ''Fine fork for watch spring bars'' included.

Hi guys, if anyone is afte any plastics check out this place - seem pretty cheap, but are in France and postage is a bit killer. I'm thinking about getting some, so might be cheaper if we ordered together from them. Haven't quite decided yet tho. Drop me a line if you may be interested. http://www.telemark-pyrenees.com
