Moke Lake

Work was over ... we were out! The guys hadn't climbed the Ben Lomond yet and i wanted to camp so we headed off again! This time Me and Pete were hiking then camping up in the mountains... Richie joined us for the hike but no camp ( He had to get the sand out of his vagina) haha. Hiking the BL with my big as pack on was a hell of alot harder than no pack like the time before! But like always once you get to the top its all worth it! Maybe more worth it cause you had to put in some extra work!

Me, Pete and Richie up top BL loving life!
C-YA Later Richie! Pete and I are off! 


Taking some time to just take it all in!

Things look like they are going to be fun to hike from far away but man when you get right up to them it just blows me away every time! Pete leading the pack blazing our own path!
Im getting really good at the paint drawing on photos huh!?

It was another perfect spot... took us a few mins to find a good spot for our tents amongst all this brush... 

There he is! The chef in his newly built Kitchen haha... we didn't know if we should make a fire or not ... we went for a little walk around ended up finding enough wood for a little fire so i gathered a bunch of rocks for a nice fire pit and boy am i glad we did that! It got cold as we were cooking and was nice to have a warm fire to eat by.

Dinner was unreal!! Camping with pete has made me change my idea of camp food ha.... this time it was mixed grain quinoa, with onions and garlic that he sautéed first, potatoes with thyme and basil, steamed broccoli, then avocado with onions that had pepper and lemon juice on them.... it was way to good to be 1. Cooked out of my tiny mess kit. and 2. To be camping food!.. Thanks pete for ruining my thought of camp food! haha
Snow capped mountains fire good food...good times!
Can't complain when your waking up and looking out your tent to this view!! 

I like adventures... from when we left the top of BL we made our own trail... it was a blast this shows a little bit of the terrain that we were crossing.... Pete making his way across a real steep part that if you weren't holding on to any brush your feet were coming out from under you!

We made it tho everyones alive from here down was the easy part... on your ass sliding down haha way faster and way less abuse to the body!

There she is Moke lake! Pete did some fishing i made some PB&J's the it got really windy and we left!

Back at it making our way home... this is too easy in NZ.
