This emulated the description of type 2 fun, a challenge that seemed to be never-ending. It was tough going We crashed through the forest, our pace slowed to a mere 0.5km/ hr. It’s brutal. We’re dehydrated and hungry, but we’re out here in our element getting amongst the very best of what New Zealand has on offer as part of our ‘Extreme Tramping’ trip.
7 days earlier, in a rush of logistics and gear we’d set out on an epic Covid inspired adventure into the heart of New Zealand backcountry. As the Air NZ bird descended into Queenstown, we got our first glimpse of the terrain we were heading into. Our trip was ambitious, but one that had been loosely spoken about although never planned and with international travel off the cards we decided to look a little closer and explore our backyard. We were embarking on a traverse through the Olivine Wilderness Area to Neil’s Beach on the West Coast ‘when we arrived’.
The 2 of us, myself, Mike Dawson, and Alpinist Alex Hillary, were out on a bit of a mission to journey to the hallowed ground of New Zealand adventure in the heart of the remote untouched and isolated wilderness zone. A place filled with stunning scenery, steep terrain and home to many good adventures. This trip had a few moving parts; land in Queenstown, pack as much Radix into our packs as possible, sort pack rafts with Queenstown Packrafting and get to Glenorchy. It couldn’t have been an easier start into the elusive Olivine. We’d barely bought a Ferg Burger before Huw and Harry from Queenstown Packrafting had tee’d up our logistics and kit and had us standing at the start of the Routeburn Track on dusk ready to get amongst it.

An eighteen-year-old princess, who paints his (yes, his) nails and dyes his hair bleach blonde, embarking on an adventure trip with his family, sounds like a plot for a bad 80s movie.

The North Shore season of 1957 is recognized in the surfing world as the start of an era. When Greg Noll, a young Mickey Munoz and company went out and rode Waimea for the first time, it was a glimpse of what could be in the world of big-wave surfing.
North West Circuit Stewart Island
I found myself in limbo during the winter of 2020, in between jobs in a strained covid economy. And so, I did what any outdoors person would do with a large amount of free time on their hands. It was time to pack up my belongings and hit the road. It was time to leave behind home comforts and go adventure-seeking.

âI want to be the leader!â Miss Six announced, pushing past me in her determination to be in front. Momentarily off-balance with my heavy pack, I narrowly avoided twisting an ankle on the sharp rocks and silently swore while cracking a bright smile.

I recently watched a youtube movie entitled, âHer Wayâ (check it out on the Adventure Website) which introduced a woman who had an overwhelming passion for running. The preface at the bottom of the clip, read as follows:
Adversity at Altitude
The wind and snow is whipping at my face. Iâve readjusted the stiff frozen fleece buff around my neck and mouth, desperately trying to protect myself from the -20 degree bitter wind. Adrenaline is still pumping through my body but I know Iâll start to get cold soon.
Last Great Mountaineering Challenge
Ground-breaking mountaineer Nirmal âNimsâ Purja MBE has attained an incredible new world record by submitting K2 as part of a collaborative team in the depths of winter. Until now, it was a record that was believed to be impossible to accomplish and was famously known as the âlast great mountaineering challengeâ.
