Air Safaris 'Grand Traverse' flight over the Southern Alps

New Zealand Southern Alps scenic flight (Grand Traverse)
Date: June 25, 2016
Location: Southern Alps, South Island, New Zealand
Video camera: Canon VIXIA HF200 (1080i/30fps)
Stills: Canon PowerShot G10
We did the Air Safaris 'Grand Traverse' tour from Franz Josef Airport. As you can see, I had trouble condensing my 27 minutes of footage, taken during the 50 min flight. So much for a short & punchy video. But how stunning is that scenery! The South Island's west coast would have to be one of my favourite places in the world. Where else can you find glaciers descending into temperate rain-forest (almost to see level), and only a few kilometres from a dramatic and beautiful coastline?
