    There is some hard walking ( but mostly scrambling) through there....well done!

    That's some wild terrain! Would love to go up there some day.

    Interesting to revisit some of those places worked in during the 80s-90s. Some have changed a bit, but most of the character building aspects are still there. Boulder bashing & torrents, & pleased about not being a climber so picking the easiest way through/around the gnarly bits.
    Notable how the vegetation has changed up the top, for a few years there were patches of lilies & tussock, only a few tussocks seen on the Douglas saddle in the vid. The lower gorge is a sight few get a close look into too. A good bed would have been welcome after that trip

    Interesting trip. Looks like you needed to climb up to the 1500 m contour at the head of the lake to get around the lake on the last day. Shows the bottom of the climb at 12.37. People seem to go over the Karangarua Saddle, but it doesn't look pleasant. Looks like it may be easier to do your trip in reverse.

      You could get around the bluffs at the head of the lake lower down than 1500m but need to be ok with some exposure. The K saddle ledge route was at another level and we suspect it would be ok if following someone who had been thru there before. We were happier with the Douglas Pass option. Trip in reverse - would make route finding thru the bluffs on Douglas Pass easier.
