In the winter we like to ski at Castle Mountain (the picture above) . In the background you can see Mount Haig. Last winter Ewoud and I decided that was the mountain we wanted to climb in the summer.
There was an incredible variety of flowers growing on the ski slopes. Here we are walking through Bear grass that was still blooming.
We had to work our way towards the Haig ridge, from where we could hike the ridge to the peak
The weather was exceptionally good and the views were fantastic. We decided to descend via the opposite ridge and so make a loop out of the hike, instead of walking back the same way. The round trip took approximately 5 hours to complete.
Looking back at the opposite ridge from where we came.
