  • An overnight adventure fastpacking Mount Oxford in the Canterbury region, New Zealand.
    The aim was to cover all of the Mount Oxford area and bag all of the DOC huts. Over 2 days I fastpacked more than 50km and 2400m in elevation gain.

    I admire your enthusiasm Zeb nothing is a problem nothing gets in your way as you sail along those wet and muddy tracks. Should be good .. could be the name of your channel mate it's a great catch cry. Getting chilly in those runners my friend I could feel it for you. Fantastic vlog as always with those stunning views. Thanks for sharing. Bushyboy Oz.

    Thanks for showing us another one of your (chilly) adventures, Zeb. Enjoyed watching. That's really cool seeing an active log book going back nearly forty years!

    Yikes, BK, I just saw this. Missed it first time around. You really get after it up high in the NZ winter in the mountains! Brave soul. Really enjoyed this one, as I do all of your posts. Cheers.

    Love your videos especially real trampiing rather than another channel camping in the rain storm whatever. Impressive effort. I am from waimakariri so know the area. However it would be great to show the entire route map at the end or beginning of your videos for those interested to go themselves. GPS file would be great too.Thank you for sharing!
