3/3 And then... then we continued along Pell Stream to the head of the valley. The bush was very ferry-like. We climbed a saddle and roll down to Cannibal Gorge Hut. Epic. Thanks @hanssolo16 :) #pellstreamhut #pellstream #lewispass #nztramping #nzhiking #tramping #hiking #nzwestcoast #westcoast #westcoasttramping

2/3 Where was I again? Oh yes, I was telling you about my Lake Daniels trip. Okay so from Lake Daniels we were headed for Pell Stream Hut. Now this was something. It’s only about 13 km but it took us nearly 6h. There are endless river crossings, beautiful bush and some serious landslips that need to be negotiated. The hut was neat and cozy so we stayed there for the night // tramp with @hanssolo16 // #lakedaniels #lewispass #westcoast #westcoastnz #newzealand #nztramping #tramping #nzhiking #nzrivercrossings #pellstreamhut #hiking #nzhiking

1/3 How to have Lake Daniels Hut all to yourself? I'll tell you: watch the forecast and when you see some heavy rain coming, walk in 😆 We got soaked wet on the way in but the day after was worth it. Just 2 of us in such a nice hut! According to a hut book, it's been months since the hut was empty at night and we managed to find the window hehe #lakedaniels #lewispass #dochuts #dochut #nzhuts #tramping #nztramping #hikingnz #nzhiking

A couple of weeks back the weather wasn't good enough to go too far so I led a trip for the CTC in local hills. Great company, beautiful weather and a beer stop. What else to ask for ☺ #christchurchtramping #christchurchtrampingclub #porthills #porthillschch #nztr #mtpleasantnz #lytteltonharbour #lyttelton

Two week ago I climbed Mt Binser. Very pleasant day and a good climb with 2 peaks to tackle first befofe the final climb. If we only took the right ridge down and not the one full of matagouri... #funanyway #nztramping #christchurchtramping #arthurspassnationalpark #arthurspass #nztramping #trampingcanterbury #trampingnz #mtbinser #hikinginginsnow

Aren't we lucky to live in such a beautiful landscape? This was my view on Sunday from Mt Binser 😘 #waimakariririver #waimakariri #arthurspass #arthurspassnationalpark #nztramping #nzhiking #newzealand #newzealandnature #nznature #nzsnow #nzmountains

This weekend I climbed over 2000m in heavy boots (trying to break them in) and with a heavy pack (testing my new pack). I did Mt Binser which I'll tell you about later and then climbed to the top of #christchurchadventurepark chairlift with my kid. I think I'm ready for a bath now and a bed 🛀👦 #trampingcanterbury #trampinginporthills #trampingwithchildren #trampingwithkids #nztramping #tramping #hikingwithkids #kids #newzealand

Tramping companions - on my last trip I accidentaly stumbled upon a couple of #christchurchtrampingclub members and walked out with them from #binsersaddle It's alway magic to meet people you know in the middle of the bush #arthurspassnationalpark #arthurspass #tramping #trampingnz #canterburytramping #trampingcanterbury #hiking #nzhiking

I had some fun up at Binser Saddle ridges with @marcbietola in #arthurspassnationalpark on Sunday. We had it all: sun, bush, scrambling, snow, flat and steep, track and bushbash. I'll write up about in once I find a minute between work, night weaning of my little man and more tramping 😁 #arthurspass #nzhiking #nztramping #binsersaddle #caseyhut #nzwalking #hiking #tramping #trampingnewzealand
