Fresh snow, breaking clouds and a whole mountain range waiting to be explored. ❄️

Yesterday afternoon delivered the perfect top-up of snow, with a bit more falling overnight. The Two Thumb Range is looking fantastic, with great coverage for July.

As the storm clears and the sun starts to break through, the clouds are lifting to reveal incredible views over Lake Tekapo and the Southern Alps.

Time to strap on the snowshoes and head out for another adventure. Who’s coming? 🥾🏔️
