Mt Cook

3754m – NZ 3 – Highest Point in NZ

19/12/2013 – Linda Glacier Route from Plateau Hut

For Mt Cook I teamed up with Mike at Queenstown Mountain guides.  We had quite the epic, getting all the way up to the summit rocks on the 18th before turning back as the weather came in.  The next day looked good, so we left the hut at 1.30am, summited at 7.30am, and were back at the hut at noon.  That is eleven hrs… we were smokin!
