Safely back!
Sunday, March 25, 2012Back from the Tongariro trip with friends! The Tongariro Alpine Crossing was an intense day of all kinds of imaginable weather conditions.
From Friday when our original transport got cancelled due to the operator feeling that it was too dangerous to bus people to the tracks, thus last minute stressful searches for a replacement; the steep first leg of the track to the last long drops with the long as queue; the steps that hurt your quadriceps; the strong gusts of wind that blew people off balance; the foggy mist that prevented you from seeing anything but a few metres from you; the rocky terrains, the sandy terrains, the muddy terrains... We experienced it all. It was long, but we made it and I was so happy to have done it.
