		<title>Mount Owen - Bell&#8217;s Hill - Culliford Hill</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mount Owen! Limestone massif, massive. A short tramp from out back of Tapawera. One of my favorite places! 
As well as Mt Owen itself, there are other peaks to climb, for fantastic 360 degree views across Kahurangi and Tasman Bay. Mt Bell, Billie&#8217;s Knob, Replica Hill, and Culliford Hill all have quirky appeal. Mt Owen [...]]]></description>

		<title>Humping the Hump - the Tuatapere Hump Ridge track</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;
A night spent in Teal Bay hut on Lake Hauroko reminded me why I hate huts. After we arrive alone, one boat lands. Then another. Then another, who fish for trout at night with pink plastic mice. Then at 2am, a boat load of drunken fools cooks a midnight feast with nonstop cursing. How I [...]]]></description>

		<title>January snow in Fiordland! Tramping Gardner - Long Burn - Princess Burn - Princess Mountains</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;

It didn&#8217;t take long to realize that 1 kilogram of food per day was too much. So much for lightweight tramping! Matt and I staggered up Gardner Burn, after turning off the Dusky track a couple of hours up from Lake Hauroko. We had 22 days of food and planned to walk to West Cape. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Red Hill, Wairoa River, Mt Rintoul - Richmond Ranges</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;
Split in two by the main divide, and spread apart over 70 million years, lie our two Red Hills. In 2008 I tramped up the Cascade River to Red Hill in Fiordland. 
Behind Nelson sits the twin Red Hill, made from the same ultramific rock, rich in Manganese and Chromium, glowing red under the sun.
To [...]]]></description>

		<title>Parapara Peak - Ko Parapara te maunga - Ko Parapara te awa</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Parapara Peak! My mountain. Dominates Golden Bay from every direction. From one side a shapely peak; from another a slab sided wall. I&#8217;ve climbed it, run up it, slept up there, bush bashed, been lost, watched the new year&#8217;s dawn, been cold wet and hungry on top. Parapara has looked after me, providing a fresh [...]]]></description>
