22 January 2020 | Fox Glacier and Lake Matheson, NZ
Maggie
We skipped Fox Glacier, choosing to go to Lake Matheson instead.
It's the most photographed lake in NZ.
On a clear, still day it reflects Mt Tasman and Mt Cook, most spectacularly at sunset.
While Nev went off in search of a campground I thoroughly enjoyed the 40 minute walk around the lake. Unfortunately the winds had picked up some and all hopes of that beautiful mirror image shot were dashed.
Added to that, both mountains were covered in cloud!
I was lucky to find one little protected corner to snap a picture...
Somehow Nev and I missed each other at the pick up point at 5pm so I walked the 4 miles back into town, rescued by South African Francois who owns NEVE restaurant and gave me a glass of South African Red and a cell phone charger!!
We found each other
Our campground was at the foot of snow covered mountains
We cooked an amazing rack of lamb on our new handy barbecue.
Loved it all.
