G'day mate, Yeah the water was an amazing colour. Sure looked very inviting to jump in. But those rivers still have way to much snow melt to be jumping in Lol Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim
G'day mate, South Island of NZ is simply stunning. The landscape is breath taking. I had a great trip and a return trip will be on some day. Thanks for your feedback. Cheers Tim
Gday mate, Haha lol. Yeah made went to NZ about three weeks ago. Had a ball. Check it out some day if you can. Thanks mate for your feedback Cheers Tim
Great to see you back Tim. Really enjoyed the video. Can’t believe it was shot off a phone, quality was fantastic. Love the simplicity of the video. No product placement, no unnecessary talking. Just you and nature. Cheers Cal
Just discovered this video. Glad to see you're an all-round outdoorsman. I went there years ago to do the Routeburn, Kepler and a 7 day circuit in Nelson Lakes National Park. A magnificent country and you captured some awesome footage. Cheers.
Gday mate, Milford Track was an amazing trip. The country I hike through was absolutely stunning. If I go back, I would like to hike the Routeburn Tk. It’s more at high elevation, which would be amazing. Sounds like a wicked trip that you went on a few years ago. Thanks a lot for your feedback Cheers Tim
Gday Mark, Sure is a bucket list place to go and check out. Hope you can do that one day. I have more videos in planning for this year. Thanks a lot mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim
What a coincidence. I just commented yesterday in one of the recent 4WD Action episodes shared through the 4WD Supacentre channel (the Watagan episode) that it was good to see you 4WDing again (even though the episode must have been filmed over 10 years ago), as the last time you posted an episode in your channel was over 7 months ago. Then this. Welcome back, again.
Gday mate, They were good fun days with the 4wd Action crew. That Watagan dvd trip was unreal. I’ve heard from a few other people, that they are seeing a few dvds from the ol action days. Thanks mate for your feedback, glad you enjoyed this video. Cheers Tim
Wow just WOW. I always knew you were a great cinematographer but this is exceptional especially only using your phone! NZ Tourism would pay heaps for this footage! 🙏❤
G'day mate, Thoroughly enjoyed the trip mate. Yeah, day 3 was pretty full on rain all day. It sure made the waterfalls come alive. Thanks for your feedback mate. Cheers Tim
Beautiful country Tim, and great to see you back. We did the Routeburn three years ago, and it was amazing too How were the sandflies ?, they can be a nuisance, but only in the lower levels. But still worth every bit of the adventure
G'day David, Absolutely stunning landscape mate. I really enjoyed Milford Track. I have checked out Routeburn Tk and i would like to go back and do that trip. The sand flies weren't too bad. Really only on the last day. The lunch stop was pretty full on with them, just had to keep moving. Lol Thanks a lot for your feedback. Cheers Tim
Beautifully shot. On an iPhone? Your setting a great example. So much more to see if we get out of the driver's seat and walk some KMs. Also much better for our health. I did Conglomerate and Moroka falls on the weekend, was awesome.
Thanks very much. As you said , sometimes people need to get out the of the drivers seat and explore a bit. They are a couple a great walks that you did up above Licola. Moroka Falls is a fair distance, but it’s well worth it. Thanks a lot for your feedback. Cheers Tim
Gday mate. Planning out new vids for this year. Amazing trip over to NZ. Happy new year to you mate. Let’s all have a good one. Thanks mate for your reply. Cheers Tim
Gday mate, Thanks mate. No, I didn’t do any off road on this trip I’d love to take my Patrol over one day. Would be wicked. It was an amazing trip, mountain landscape I’ve never seen before. Thanks for your reply Cheers Tim
Thanks Tim,another amazing vid of the natural sounds of the bush and the views were fantastic thanks again and wecome back hope to see more vids this year from you.👌🏾👍🏾
Whenever I see ferns growing by the side of rivers or creeks I know that body of water is going to be crystal clear. What a beautiful location Tim and good to see you back mate. When are you and your trusty GU going to appear on a video?
Gday mate, Yeah for sure mate, where ever there’s tree ferns, you know there’s going to be a beautiful river system near by. This was a stunning trip and the rain forest landscape was amazing. I’m planning some new vids for this year. Thanks a lot for your support mate. Cheers Tim
Great to see you back Tim. What a beautiful place. That is some of the clearest water I've ever seen. Good to see you sporting a Snow Goose cap too. I had a chuckle at that. Cheers, BobbyB.
Gday Bobby Absolutely stunning place, that’s for sure. Yeah same mate, don’t think I’ve ever seen river water so clear, and drink from the rivers. How good is the Snow Goose Hotel? I must get back for a few cold ones. Top spot. Thanks mate for your feedback. Cheers Tim
Thankyou, so beautifully shot, I love the audio of the natural surroundings, without an overwhelming load of narration. I can’t wait to walk this it’s on my bucket list after watching!
Gday mate, I went with a large group of hikers. But, I made sure I walked totally on my own to really enjoy the surroundings of the hike. I didn’t want to hear voices. Stunning hike, I hope you get over some day. Thanks for your reply. Cheers Tim
G'day Phillip, Yeah mate, all filmed just off my phone. Absolutely stunning trip. I hope you can go over some day and see it for yourself. Thanks mate. Cheers Tim
G'day mate, My first time over the ditch mate, absolutely love the trip. I'll come back some day for sure. Thanks for checking out my cooking videos mate, cant beat cooking on the campfire. Thanks for your feedback. Cheers Tim

Welcome back Tim. It's been awhile. Has real life been keeping you very busy? You should add "ASMR" to the title of this episode. It definitely falls into that category. It was so relaxing to watch.
Gday mate Thank you very much. I’m glad you enjoyed this video. I tell you what, it was a very relaxing and enjoyable trip. Thanks heaps for your feedback. Cheers Tim
Yes, absolutely. All going well, I’d go back same time this year in late November. Routeburn is a shorter trip, but it covers more of higher elevation, which would be amazing. Thanks for your reply Cheers Tim
Awesome video Tim. Looks like you had a great time over the ditch. I'm from New Zealand but i've never visted the South Island. All the best for the New Year and look forward to more videos from you. Cheers Tim.
Gday mate, I had the best trip, hiking through those amazing mountains. Where are you based now mate? More videos are being planned for this year. Thanks a lot for your reply. Cheers Tim

Welcome back Tim. It's been awhile. Has real life been keeping you very busy? You should add "ASMR" to the title of this episode. It definitely falls into that category. It was so relaxing to watch.
Gday mate

I tell you what, it was a very relaxing and enjoyable trip.
Thanks heaps for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Are you going to do Routeburn it’s a beautiful track as well

Routeburn is a shorter trip, but it covers more of higher elevation, which would be amazing.
Thanks for your reply
Cheers Tim
Awesome video Tim. Looks like you had a great time over the ditch. I'm from New Zealand but i've never visted the South Island. All the best for the New Year and look forward to more videos from you. Cheers Tim.
