Day 47: Snow in the Richmond Range

Cape ReingaBluff

Into the Richmond Forest Range, and NZ weather is putting me to a real test. When I got to the hut, it was such a blue, sunny sky that I got my solar charger out to charge my phone, and within 15 minutes it was hailing and then it started snowing. I mean SNOWING. Never seen this kind of weather change in half an hour, but well, it can’t be a Real Challenge if it’s always sunny, aye! Day 47: 1842.5 KM.

It can’t be a real challenge if it’s always sunny.
