-- About this video --
Today we join Fox Glacier Guiding for a heli-hike onto the Fox Glacier. Yes, there is another glacier on the New Zealand West Coast other than the Franz Josef Glacier and as we are about to find out, exploring the Fox Glacier is an awesome New Zealand adventure.
After gearing up with Fox Glacier Guiding for our Fox Glacier helicopter flight, we fly over the stunning Fox Glacier Valley and land on top of the glacier itself. Here, we watch the helicopter fly away then meet our two guides who are going to be taking us around this magnificent New Zealand glacier.
After putting on some crampons we follow our guides around this incredible landscape. We are the only ones of the glacier so it’s a real personal experience. We see waterfalls, learn about the glacier, step over crevasses and, our favourite, we crawl through ice cave after ice cave.
There are so many ice caves on the Fox Glacier which makes it a true glacier exploration tour. We have a blast the whole way around this Fox Glacier Tour.
After landing back in the Fox Glacier township, we treat ourselves to a beer.
So what do you think of heli-hiking on Fox Glacier? Is this a New Zealand glacier activity you would add to your New Zealand bucket list?

Packrafting The Middle Rees
At the start of winter I finally got a chance to see what a packraft was really good for. Call it an interview if you will for my friend Huw and his Queenstown based business Packrafting Queenstown. We’d talked for a while about the potential of some work guiding for him and i’d talked up my historical whitewater experience, a little kayaking, a little canoeing (yes New Zealand they’re different things!) and a little rafting.
So we loaded up some packrafts and some bikes for the shuttle and headed up to the Rees Valley. It had been a bit wet the previous 24 hours and on the way in we discussed cut offs and indicators and side creek flows. When we got to the take out to drop off the bikes for the shuttle Huw started suggesting it was a bit higher than we’d been hoping for. The class 2 I’d been promised as a gentle intro was definitely up there in class 3 territory because of the volume.
Full disclosure Huw - it’s been about 7 or 8 years since I paddled whitewater…

THE VEILS - LIVE CKUSES / MUSIQUES EN STOCK FESTIVAL 2014
Quand la Nouvelle-Zélande monte s'installer à Londres cela donne naissance à des contrastes et reliefs. The Veils , mené par Finn Andrews et la ravissante Sophia Burns, n'est pas du genre à se laisser embrumer la tête par les excès du Royaume-Uni, le quintette ne se considère pas comme le roi incontesté des nouvelles tendances que les couves du New Musical Express étalent dans un périmètre pas toujours juste dans ses calculs. Le groupe tire des lignes et tente en prenant son temps de les emmener un cran-au-dessus. The Veils préfère s'émanciper dans le terrain de jeu du pop-rock plutôt que sur son champ de bataille ! (Musiques en stock - Cluses 2014).
