The local aeroclub traditionally has a winter gathering at Nelson Lakes. This year I was privileged to be able to fly up there for the day. Usually takes an hour to Lake Station airfield but with the head wind on the day it took an hour an a half with 21kts ground speed. Slow going.
Here are a few pictures I snapped along the way there.
The snow topped range is the St Arnard range with Lake Rotoiti beneath.
3rd pic is a small historic settlement called Top House.
