Lovely footage and timelapses  O0


Apologies to any Scottish peeps (if required), beefy's mother comes from Scotland, so we don't mean any offence by the jocular nature of the vid with the Scottish accent and silly hat bit.


OMG I am such an old git, I couldn't even get up off my knees! My excuse is I had a precarious pack because the frame was broken  :-[

Don't forget we were really tired from the rough terrain no wonder you struggled with a heavy pack :)

Great vid looks a lovely area.
Was April quite pleased to get to a path? I thought she enjoyed off piste tussock hopping.
Love your approach to light weight camping, obviously a comedy hat is absolutely essential.

She was, it is rough walking,
I thought the forum needed a bit of humour after some of the recent posts

Very fine video of the area ...this is how it should be seen, I guess. My own two visits were in early wintery conditions and later in wet overcast weather so didn't get to see it at its best.  Don't think that I will ever get back there now...I stay too far away to face up to the drive down South. :)

Fab vid beefy.  I also had a chuckle at April kissing the ground  ;D


That's worthy of a "walks where you've felt like this" topic of its own!


The scenery looks wonderful.
