Drove to Queenstown for the next set of adventures. The Rees-Dart (after the rivers by the same name) Track was first. I decided to do the 37 miles in two days as the weather was forecast to turn rainy.

| Hardly noticed me (I don't have a telephoto lens) |
 |
Beautiful walking in the alpine rainforest
|
 |
Many waterfalls
|
 |
Chamois, endemic to the European Alps were imported to NZ
in the early 1900's |
 |
| This is looking straight down |
 |
Much like the PCT where some of the trail is carved (blasted) out of rock
|
As the weather was forecast to become rainy with low overcast I was going to miss the views in Fjordland so I decided to splurge and stand on a glacier as well...
 |
Alfie also worked as a helicopter pilot filming
Lord of The Rings |
 |
| Birds eye of valley I had hiked the day before |
 |
| Some snow time on the glacier |
 |
| Mitre Peak in Milford Sound |
 |
You don't see this from the trail
|
I have just a bit more to do in NZ but the internet is always an issue so thanks for your patience.
