In Arrowtown there is a loop walk around a
section of the Arrow river. This was gold rush territory and feels
a lot like northern California.

This mountain range, visible from Queenstown
is the Remarkables. Julie mistakenly called them Incredible.
Hah. Shows what she knows.

The freakishness of this scenery doesn't come
through in any of my pictures of the "Road to Mordor" landscapes.
But it is quite unlike anything I've ever seen before.

Can you recognize the speck on the precipice?
That's us trying to stay standing in gale force gusts without
slipping on all the sheep poop.

It would be easier to estimate how many
pictures I took of the Remarkables if I had a regular film camera.
I could say something like: I shot 3 whole rolls just of these
mountains. But no, all I can say is something like: I shot 3
gigabytes just of these mountains. Doesn't quite sound the same.
