Ohau....

Ohau was another mountain I'd wanted to ride but never got the chance, hearing how sick it is there. So when I heard there were people going I was stoked to head there with them and a rad shred crew it was of Craig, Alexis, Anita and I.

It was the perfect day, we were driving there in Craig and Alexis' van, me and Anita were in the back one second Alexis turn round and we're in mid conversation, the next we have fallen asleep, hahaha!!!! We came across a herd of sheep on the road that we had to stop for, a common sight in NZ. The weather was not looking awesome, dark clouds over head, then just as we saw Ohau our excitement rose as it was the only spot in the sky that had the sun shining down on it, perfect!! The road is real narrow and sketchy going up even having to cross a stream at the bottom to head up but the views amazing overlooking a lake.

There's one chair here but so much awesome terrain to ride when you start looking around scoping out your line on the ride up!! The summit was open with fresh untracked snow, so you guessed it we hiked all day for those fresh lines going in a different direction each time to see all sides of the mountain what an EPIC day it was I'd have to say my best yet in NZ!! :D The snow was so good, loved riding some pow again constant smiles from ear to ear from all of us all day long and on the drive home too!! :D
