A break in the weather last week gave us the chance to get up onto the Tasman Glacier – and what a truly special place it is 🏔️⛷️

Skiing through incredible ice features, dwarfed beneath the highest peaks in the Southern Alps. A scenic lunch high on the Main Divide below Hochstetter Dome. And time for some beautiful spring corn laps on the Bonney Glacier.

With all the recent storms, the glacier is super well filled at the moment, with very few open crevasses – a pure delight to travel and ski through.

A privilege, as always, to spend time in such a spectacular and special place. ❄️💙
