I'm heading over to Mt cook for a few weeks for an attempt at some summits. Was wondering if one can get food supplies and fuel there? or does one have to go back to twizel for resupply?
is there a New World store somewhere in the region or are they just small grocery stores? Last time I was in the region was flying in from fox glacier so I've never been to the Cook Village.
And before I meet up with my team there, I'll have a few days spare alone. Any suggestions on walks around there safe to do alone? First comming to my mind are Mt oliver near mueller hut and the ball pass but are there any other recommended routes? Once my mates arrive, our teams' rough plan is to head to the top of copland pass and head to the footstool and summiting Mt sefton from there. Weather permitting, we'll catch a chopper over to the Mt tasman region and hopefully summit the big one there.
