The Journey
Description
In all honesty I don't know too much about how this day will shape up at this stage, but I have local resident Iain Graham scoping it out on our behalf. There's quite a few trails around Franz Josef to explore and the day will include a very meaty climb to the summit of Alex Knob for stunning views over the glacier and beyond to the high peaks of the Southern Alps.
Important Notes:
Support runners need to be self-sufficient in regards to transport to the start and back from the finish. While we MAY be able to offer some assistance this CANNOT be guaranteed.
