The glaciers and Lake Matheson

I walked up to the ending of the Franz Jozef and did some viewing later on the Fox Glacier, 20 km south. Again I can tell, but pictures will do the talking (will add them as soon as possible) as they will from the Lake Matheson.

There is no picture book from New Zealand having not at least one mirroring picture from the Mount Cook in the Lake, very nice.


About Mount Cook

Aoraki/Mount Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand. It lies in the Southern Alps, the mountain range which runs the length of the South Island. A popular tourist destination, it is also a favourite challenge for mountain climbers. Aoraki/Mt Cook consists of three summits lying slightly south and east of the main divide, the Low Peak, Middle Peak and High Peak, with the Tasman Glacier to the east and the Hooker Glacier to the west.

Tomorrow to Queenstown.
