Looking back at some of the highlights from our spring ski touring trips in October — the Cass Valley Haute Route.
5 days, 65 km, over 7000 m climbed through the heart of the Gamack Range (yes there were lots of side trips!). Linking huts, alpine passes, powder and perfect corn turns across some of the best ski touring terrain in New Zealand. A true backcountry adventure. ⛷️❄️🏔️
Keen to join us on a traverse next season?
