Some BiBe & NZ pics
« on: September 17, 2011, 01:15:29 PM »
I just threw together a quick gallery on line to help a friend of mine choose hiking clothing, gear, and to understand how useful trekking poles could be.

Anyway, there's a bunch of BiBe pics on there, and about 150 pics or so from our 2009-2010 NZ hike, so it might be worth a quick look.

Sorry that almost all the shots are camp, clothing, or trekking-pole related -- but that was the purpose of the gallery.

I did include our battle vs the Kea on the Rees-Dart in NZ though, so there's that...

Enjoy:

Nice job on the documentation trtlrock!  I liked seeing the evolution of gear: esbit to windpro stove, pads, trekking poles, footwear, tarps even got Tess a new pack! But some things stay the same, Tess does all the cooking!

Thanks and beautiful places all.

Thanks -- glad you enjoyed it.

I do have emergency training with the Swiss Army Knife scissors & can boil water -- so in a pinch I could probably pull it off!  :icon_lol:
