Billies K**b #23/138⛰️
Oscar and I were so stoked to spend some time exploring around Mt Owen in Kahurangi National Park. If you know the area, you’ll know it’s famous for its incredible limestone landscapes, and Billies K**b absolutely delivered.
Starting from Courthouse Flat, we headed straight up the ridge and immediately started earning this one. It’s bloody steep… but it gets you up there fast!
In the saddle just before the staircase, we headed off track towards the summit. Super cool terrain, stunning views, and we genuinely picked the perfect day for it.
There were a good few spaniards along the way… which, if you know, you know. My gaiters really came in clutch there 😅
When we’re heading off track, we make sure to study the map and make a clear intentions before we set off. We’ve been using the Plan My Walk app from the New Zealand Mountain Safety Council to create custom tracks, log our trip intentions, and share plans with emergency contacts before we head out. Such a great feature, we love it so much!

Canavan’s K**b #22/138🌿
A short but beautiful walk through some of the West Coast’s incredible bush, with great views back over Franz Josef at the top. It was awesome to learn a bit of the history behind this spot too. Named after Richard Canavan and standing proud despite the movement of the Waiho Glacier that took out most of its surroundings thousands of year ago.
Not every k**b is a big adventure. Sometimes it’s just a quick escape into the most gorgeous bush and a chance to tick off another epic k**b!

Reminiscing about our trip across the Alps last year 🇫🇷🇦🇹🇨🇭🇮🇹
It was one of those trips I’d dreamed about for a long time, and now I can’t quite believe it was almost a year ago. The mountains in Europe couldn’t have felt more different from the ones we have here in New Zealand, both stunning in their own way, but there was something so grand and ancient about the Alps.
In New Zealand, I often feel like a wee explorer, heading into places that feel like you have them all to yourself. In Europe, the mountains felt like they carried history, like I was one of thousands who had wandered through these places before us. It felt powerful in a completely different way.
New Zealand’s history feels so young when compared to everything these Alps have witnessed, and we felt incredibly lucky to experience even a small part of that history on our trip.
