First rivers in NZ

After the rest of our baggage arrived it was time to head to a river. Our choice was the Rangitata Gorge just less than 2h south of Christchurch. We found a sweet camp next to the river. The next two days we went to run the Rangitata. We also met up with Rachel Curtis a friend from NZ. She got of work for the weekend.

From there we drove to the Westcoast via scenic Arthur’s Pass.

While recording a timelaps we ran into some Hokitika locals on their way to the Crooked River. Spontaneous we decided to take the opportunity of joining them. After a exhausting hike through deep mud and up steep hillsides we had an awesome run down the Crooked that really put a smile on our faces. ;)

This run is really worth the work.

Cheers mates!
