2010, a wednesday
drove through the rainforest mountains of mt. aspiring national park and stopped at the spectacular waterfall at the gates of haast in haast pass. followed the western coast up to glacier country. at franz josef glacier, mom and i took a helicopter to the top of the glacier and spent a few hours hiking around the ice checking out ice caves and streams and bottomless holes in the ice. our guide was an american so we had plenty to chat about. the heli-hike was breathtaking! afterwards we drove up to westport, stopping for dinner in greymouth, where dad’s meat was brought out on a hot stone slab for cooking.
