The last few days

We've had awesome training the last three days: 2 GS and 1 SL. We've gotten a little bit of fresh snow the last two days, which makes the morning drive to the mountain more of a challenge but the hill has been in awesome shape despite. We are hoping for a few more as we close out the camp. Below are some photos of Tekapo's surrounding area.

MANY sheep! 60 million I read... which is around 60x more than their population! The ones near Tekapo are Merino.


 Hot pools that some of the girls visited one afternoon.

 On top of Mt. John is a national research and public observatory. The night sky is one of the best in the world here thanks to lack of light and air pollution. 

 A few centimeters of fresh snow on the slopes.
