New Zealand

We have spent the past 4 weeks skiing all over the south island of New Zealand.

Day one back on skis at Broken River. After 12 consecutive months of summer it wasn't going to take much for Laurie and I to have the best day of skiing of the year
The girls a wee bit scared getting on the Inclinator at Broken River.
Mr. PhD in Thule Packing...does he look proud or what!

After a stormy start in our first week with Jo and Karl, we finally saw something at Ohau.
Laurie at Roundhill
Mt. Cadrona
Beer was a better option this day

Our camper van was a little light in the back end for the road up to Mt. Dobson.
Touring above Mt. Dobson....when we finally got there!

The next day we put some weight in the back of the van on the way up to Craigieburn.

Keas don't like snowboarders either!
Ticket lady was gone for some turns I guess.
Walking down from Broken River Club Field. There tends to be a lot of walking involved in club field skiing.
