36. New Zealand, Mt. Hutt, Queenstown, Christchurch, Methven and the Southern Alps Summer Skiing with Richie Owen
Richie Owen shows us the way around Mt. Hutt. Actually, he shows us the way all around the South Island of New Zealand. This is the one destination that, well, wasn’t a destination last year. The nation shut it’s borders and held them tightly during the miserable era we call COVID. And the ski industry persuaded the government to let the mountains prove they could safely do their thing and let the people ski. So Summer 2020 (US summer; NZ Winter; i.e. June, July, August) had the Kiwis on the snow.
This is the land of adrenaline. From the drive up to the mountain, to bungee jumping, jet boating, canyon swinging, zip lining, and, our beloved skiing and snowboarding, this is the kind of place you may need a vacation from your vacation.
Shhhh… Richie might have slipped and mentioned a little about New Zealand’s prize opportunity – fly fishing. We hope you enjoy your time around the Canterbury Plain and the descriptions of the drive to Queenstown.
Now go book your trip.
