Avalanche Peak

Crow Glacier






Avalanche Peak is a 1000 m day hike that starts in the town of Arthurs Pass- it is more of a climb than a hike in lots of spots but it only takes 4 hours to get to the top. Nice views up there- and we were joined by two beautiful Kea parrots that came and sat by us and were playing in the wind currents.
