There was alpine ice in some of the TMB pictures, though we didn't go near it.
Here's some waterfall ice in Ontario from last month, at the Madawaska Ice Festival. Thanks to the Alpine Club of Canada, Toronto Section, for organizing.
Back to Aotearoa and the Cascade Saddle trip last month. I hope I can write a trip report one of these days.
The itinerary that we'd had in mind for a while was from Raspberry Creek carpark through to Aspiring Hut, over Cascade Saddle, through to Dart Hut, and then to Shelter Rock and out at Muddy Creek.
We finally managed to do it in February, with lots of itinerary changes to not be on the saddle on a rainy day.
Here are pictures from Queenstown through to Aspiring Hut, so not yet the saddle.
