Easy like Sunday morning.
On location, good people, good times.
Despite the lack of heat and comfort, it's just easier to wake up and zoom with my feet on days like this after sleepless nights wondering how many set waves you have missed while you try to get some much needed rest.

A day of alpine summer.
35km of banger weaving meadow, beech forest, reflective tarns, bluffs, alpine ranges and valleys with spectacular vistas of the Hollyford Valley and beyond to Martin's Bay and the Tasman Sea to start off 2025.Routeburn shelter>Routeburn Falls>Lake Harris> Harris Saddle> Conical Hill>Valley of Trolls
Lake Wilson& Mt Erebus added onto the future to do list for good measure.
Thanks to legends from @trekkeradventures for providing the trusting steed to get me here.

Southern Hospitality
Weekday sleepovers at the sea lion's abode under starry night was a good reset.
Relay in the vortex honey hole with couple of mates , warm up and cook up by the bonfire is certainly unique surf camping experience to the far south of New Zealand.
Equity in the memory bank has been fetching great growth this Spring.
La vie c'est pas mal.
