Lovely shot.
Can I just detect the top of Tahurangi Lodge on the LHS?
And is this on the Maketawa Track on the climb up Mt Taranaki ?

Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

Port Hills? They were actually on fire when we were visiting Christchurch, so couldn't go there.

Correct eggs. We were lucky with the weather the first 1 1/2 days we stayed in the area.
Managed this walk and both glaciers, then the heavens opened up with a vengeance.

Not Cannibal Gorge.
The name of the river will suffice.
Big hint - this is a Great Walk.
And if I remember correctly they were working to put in a new bridge at this location.

No, but that's close enough. This was on the parallel valley floor walk. Hendes Hut is somewhere behind me over my left shoulder.
Angle and zoom is a bit confusing, the track rises to the view point approaching the terminal face of the glacier.
Merry Christmas eggs.
