    The limited snow gives this area a captivating appearance. It's quite moonsxape in many ways that it makes you look for a lunar module .. must be one somewhere you get there and back so fast my friend. Awesome camera work Zeb you've come a long way since you started. Sundays are THE day we look forward for. Thanks mate. Bushyboy Oz.

    Top shelf gear you've got, BK! You use it well. I enjoy these technical hikes you've been posting, it's a different look for your channel. Anyway, carrying the ice axes instead of strapped to your pack has them quickly available if you encounter a Yeti. :) Great post and, cheers!

      Thanks Rick.
      Yeah, I've really enjoyed this winter and I'm loving getting into more technical terrain, it's awesome.
      Haha got to be prepared for a yeti!
      Cheers mate.

    "casual morning stroll" would also suited this tile with your current evolving content (humour)... awesome looking trip, what stunning day out indeed. Fascinating thinking back to the older content of wondering round the muddy kaimai ranges, cool seeing the progression.

    • @BackcountryKiwi
      @BackcountryKiwi  ปีที่แล้ว

      Haha love it 😃
      Glad you liked it mate. Yeah, I am enjoying doing these type of trips. I'm sure I'll be back stomping mud at some point.
      Cheers!

    Awesome trip there BK! Beautiful! I’m gonna be the one parent here and say it. As the father of two adults myself, id like to see ya do this technical stuff with another person. But that’s just me.
    Take care bud! NQU

      Hey mate. Thanks heaps.
      I had planned on doing this trip with a mate but he bailed last minute.
      The avy risk was very low and snow conditions were good. I am comfortable on this terrain so I was happy to do it solo but I appreciate your concern.
      My next trip I will share is with mates 😊
      Cheers!

    A superb video, Zeb. I've climbed Philistine in summer and a little bit of snow. Nothing like what you did though as I don't have the best head for heights. Fantastic views at the top.

    Shot for the climb. I've been hiking with heavy loads and have done a beginner's mountaineering course. Would this be OK to do or too technical cheers

    • @BackcountryKiwi
      @BackcountryKiwi  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's a grade 2 so a slight step up. It's alot of fun but you'd want to be confident with crampons and 2 tools. Try find someone to do it with!

    Unreal bro! Was that last ridge as steep as it looked?

    • @BackcountryKiwi
      @BackcountryKiwi  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks bro! The summit ridge? It was a bit of a knife edge in spots.
      I'll send you a photo.
