Lovely shot.
Can I just detect the top of Tahurangi Lodge on the LHS?
And is this on the Maketawa Track on the climb up Mt Taranaki ?

Lets stay in the land of One Tree Hills {NZ}

[eggs]

A volcanic landscape

[icefest]

Looks to be east of Chch

[eggs]

Yes...

[johnw]

Port Hills? They were actually on fire when we were visiting Christchurch, so couldn't go there.

[eggs]

Not the Port Hills.
I can go with the name of the town below in the photo

Yes this is Akaroa harbour from near Stony Bay Peak

Lake Mapourika?

[johnw]

Lake Mapourika?

Not Lake Mapourika but you're in the general area.

[johnw]

Closer to one glacier than another.

[eggs]

Lake Matheson, and bonus - with a view!!

Correct eggs. We were lucky with the weather the first 1 1/2 days we stayed in the area.
Managed this walk and both glaciers, then the heavens opened up with a vengeance.

[eggs]

Thanks John

Staying in NZ.

[GregG]

Cannibal Gorge maybe.

[eggs]

Not Cannibal Gorge.
The name of the river will suffice.
Big hint - this is a Great Walk.
And if I remember correctly they were working to put in a new bridge at this location.

[eggs]

Heading towards ....... Flats Hut / Campsite

[johnw]

Heading towards ....... Flats Hut / Campsite

I walked here but some chopper up top for a short icy stroll

[eggs]

Was it a walk to Hende's Hut?

[johnw]

Was it a walk to Hende's Hut?

No, but that's close enough. This was on the parallel valley floor walk. Hendes Hut is somewhere behind me over my left shoulder.
Angle and zoom is a bit confusing, the track rises to the view point approaching the terminal face of the glacier.
Merry Christmas eggs.

[eggs]

Merry Christmas.
Anyone can go next.

Happy New Year, Europe
