Presumably this is funded by the $15 they charge me every time I drive up the road :D

In this case, it isn't the government spending the money though - it's a lobbying group for the agricultural industry.

Yeah exactly - he made it much easier to take the Greens seriously, and he managed to get a fair bit done. One of my favourite politicians, by far.

Hard to feel too sorry for him :D

We bivy'd out - I got woken up in the night by a Kea pecking my toes. They're definitely cheekier than Kea in other bits of the country 🤣

Reposted - not sure how to cross post on Lemmy 🤣

Its actually not too bad, especially in Summer when the weather is good. I think a lot of the accidents are from Winter, with bad avalanche conditions, or when it's wet/icey - I know there have been a few skiiers caught out (even when there's only a little snow). Definitely not anything near a mountaineering route.

Lovely walk though (and great views down the Matukituki)!

Tassie is more about the adventure climbing. If you want bouldering in Australia the Grampians are meant to be pretty sick, and there's some good stuff in Sydney & the Blue Mountains.

You could also come boulder in Castle Hill, across the ditch in NZ

Also known as Auckland 2.0 🤣

Nelson?
