Wrap up / Heads Up

Fantastic Fox Glacier Trip! The Flying Foxers are grinning from ear to ear. Awesome day, awesome guides from Fox Glacier Guiding and awesome team. Just like clockwork. Pip and Alan were ecstatic the way everything just ticked over and the CACTI were able to challenge themselves to their limit on the ice faces, including abseiling down into a crevasse and climbing back out. Even the guides were impressed and joined in the CACTUS 5 at the end. Whirling around the glacier in the chopper put the icing on the cake of a great day. Maybe next term we'll succeed in going down under... Slideshow and link to photos will be posted later in the day.

HI HI TOMO, DOWN WE GO
CACTUS Challenge - 7th and 8th September: CACTUS will descend into Hi Hi Tomo, a 130 ft abseil into the cavernous mouth of the Te Tahi cave system! This part of our challenge will be with the experienced team from Norwest Adventures! Breathe in –this is “a full‐on exploration style activity in a superb sporty active water cave complete with abseils, climbs, crawls and squeezes.” Our 5 hour underground adventure will top off an overnight excursion in the Paproa area. This will involve bush travel and an awesome night out (in the bush, that is)! Be prepared for surprises. Get the permission signed and returned ASAP - Get it here.
