About nztramper

I'm tramping around 80-100 days a year in the forests and hills of southern New Zealand. If I'm not tramping I might be climbing one of the easier summits of NZ's Southern Alps. 


I've been the trip organiser for one of the tramping club in Christchurch, NZ. Also I trained as an instructor and taught outdoor survival skills to the public with the NZ Mountain Safety Council and in clubs.
