Attended a 10-day Mountaineering Course in New Zealand early December 2008. Most of the shots were taken in the Westland/Mt Cook National Park. Ice Climbing was done in Franz Joseph Glacier. I learned quite a lot from the course, especially when we were staying at Centennial Hut and had our lessons in the slopes. It was quite an adventure. An Adventure to Seek the Freedom of the Hills
