A three hour hike near Milford Sound. They said to be ready for all kinds of weather here, so we carted up coats, sweaters and raingear. Turned out to be a beautiful, sunny and humid climb past a churning low waterfall and uphill through the rainforest to this lovely alpine lake. The skinny dip at the top was worth it!!
Sounds like you’re now card carrying members of the Polar Bear Club.
