We manage to crop by Franz Josef after Fox Glacier.
It’s a much longer walk as compared to Fox Glacier.
A small water fall along our way in.
The small waterfall you see at the back ground (left rear) is where we took our previous photos.

Taken on the drive to Christchurch
I miss New Zealand~!!!
Next stop was a drive from Queenstown to Fox Glacier which took us a couple of hours.
Had a short stop at BLUE POOL along the way.
Getting real close to the water to get a shot..
There are suppose to be brown tout migrating in the river during autumn and winter (if I am not wrong). Too bad we didn’t get to see any of that.
Lots of rocks being stacked up by visitors.
It’s a really interesting scene to have so many stacks of rocks in the area.
A view from Knights Point Lookout.
I can’t recall where this is. Lots and lots of pebbles with messages written on them and place along the whole beach. Really cool. And the All Blacks won recently, so that explains why I took this shot.
I find this landscape really special.
Trekking at Lake Matheson.
Didn’t manage to get any decent shots as the weather was really windy and cloudy that day..
This was a small wall right outside at our motel. Nice mosses growing on the rocks.
Reached Fox Galcier and we joined their half day tour.
The bus ride from “Fox Glacier Guiding” to Fox Glacier. It’s actually just a 5min ride away.. haha
Trekking to the foot of the ice.
Our guide.
The conditions are so wet that these mosses can actually grow without water.
Getting ready to scale the ice with crampons on.
Our first time walking on ice
Really nice of them to provide walking sticks. Make sure you grab one off them, really useful along the way.
Crampons in action. It’s really fun actually. You have to stamp your feet into the ice so that the crampons will bite into the ice and provide more grip.
These guides have duty roster everyday to cut out ice steps for guided tour like ours. So thoughtful of them. After cutting the steps for us, they were taking a break on the ice enjoying the scenery.
Nice cold ice all around us.
We really enjoyed our half day tour. Although we didn’t manage to join the full day tour cause it was fully booked when we got there, we still had a really nice time trekking on ice. So please go try it if you have the chance,
