Our October Mountain Experience Course participants got the full mountain experience and turned adversity into opportunity!
The crew had to contend with over 200 mm of rain, plus gale-to-hurricane force winds at times. They still managed to pack in a wealth of learning and adventure into 5 unforgettable days at Aoraki, no small thanks to guide Chris and his many innovative backup plans.

Peek-a-boo!
After 11 Days of bad weather, and 2 metres of new snow, it was fantastic for our glacier guiding team to be back on the Tasman Glacier yesterday!
The weather for this weekend looks perfect for a helihike. Come on up!

18/10/2025

The weather’s been wild in the NZ mountains lately — strong westerlies and heavy rain keeping us on our toes 🌧️💨

After some adventurous 4WDing, we made our way to a private hut with a fireplace 🔥

Climbed a peak called The Weasel, checked out the glacier in strong winds, and even went for a refreshing river swim 💪❄️

Nothing beats coming back to a warm, cosy hut at the end of the day.
