Four Canterbury based climbers set off into the heart of the New Zealand Southern Alps to explore a rarely climbed peak with a hope to climb a new route. Their journey takes them through the infamous ‘Garden of Eden’ ice plateau, across ‘The Great Unknown’ and through the thick, wild vegetation of the West Coast bush.

Great real adventure. Congratulations for the success as planned. Do as much as you possibly can in the great Southern NZ mountains and wherever else in the World. Life is short. I know it in reality. I am now 80 years old and re member, with pleasure my 5 months climbing season in NZ way back in 1971. I wish you alll a great life.

I never understood the ultralight tent (for mountaineering) idea. Like I’d rather suffer carrying something like a Hilleberg than die from a storm at night😂😅

Having watched a fair few youtube outdoor films this really stands out as a total breath of fresh air. The filming, the attention to detail, composition, production and music but mainly the story telling and the gentle characters. Loved it - keep it up :)

Hyperlite isn’t the best choice 😂 I’d probably still carry a BD tent even it’s heavier 😂
