Mount Haast

So on the Sunday – the mighty midgets went off for a mighty feast.. and left us poor, lonely, used & abused support crew to our own devices. *

So, Steve and I decided to head up (well, Steve decided, and I grudgingly gave in) to go up Mount Haast. And I must admit, I really enjoyed it (once back at the car).

Basically a 4 hour return trip up a steep hill. Good views though. And saw some leaves eaten by bugs too. The joys of having an entemologist on the scene. Actually one does learn a lot. And it was good as Steve would just lift up boulders to see what was underneath – which gave me enough time to catch up. So unfit.

And a pretty good panorama from the top.
