  • Epic story. He was very lucky. I don't hardcore climb any more, but still get out and about in our spectacular mountains and bush here in New Zealand but I've lost count of how many foreigners I've helped because they've got lost, grossly under estimated the extreme terrain or the extreme weather variability, horribly under equipped, told them they're not equipped or clearly not experienced to tackle the route they're planning on or told them they needed at least an emergency locator beacon to go further. Twice I've bivvy'd over night in shitty locations to stay with lost, cold or injured climbers who were in deep shit but very lucky our party stumbled upon them. Our big mountains are a big, lonely place to be in-trouble in. People seriously under estimate our mountain regions in NZ, especially the bigger peaks/glaciers in the Southern Alps but even 'sedate' walks like the Tongoriro Crossing can turn epic due to rapid weather change and you can get disoriented/wet/cold very quickly, especially if not prepared. Our mountain rescue and SAR people, especially in the deep south would be some of the best in the world and usually all volunteers. Something foriegners might not understand is if you injure yourself here, need a rescue helicopter, need hospital care, its all FREE under our state insurance system called ACC. You won't pay a cent or if you do, it will be a very very modest part charge. Perhaps that should change. Personally, I think we should

It bloody drove me crazy, it's no wonder that a big portion of the world think that we are just stupid rednecks lol. I met a group of tourists over from las Vegas not long ago and one of the girls from that group said that she thought that we all speak like low IQ Bogans lol, I guess I can see why that is now. And on my way out I made sure to show those arrogant Americans just how bogan we can be with a good ol Aussie tongue lashing hahahaha.

I basically skipped breakfast and didn’t check the weather before going on a decent day hike with a few friends. By the time we reached the summit, I was shaking uncontrollably whilst trying to eat a tuna sandwich due to being malnourished and then a hail storm formed right above us. It was nuts seeing it happen that closely. We started running back down and had a few close calls with slips, etc. but luckily we made it out fine.

    • I've trained a few of the Glacier guides and frankly if what you say is accurate it way outside basically guiding and policy for those companies. Making sure clients (especially novice ones from outside NZ) have correct gear and don't get to early stage hypothermia is a basic level part of the that role. Perhaps you should have said something at the time to the management as it a very serious breach of their guiding protocols and the NZ adventure guiding industry certainly as long has I've had involvement back to the mid 90s.

    • Heard and seen a few of Adam descriptions of his trips (including the full version of this) into the Westland mountains where he's got into serious trouble a few times (2 of them he's very very lucky to survived) including seeing some footage where he shows the gear he takes. The country he was in required much more gear, knowledge and skills in mountaineering than he had. I've got formal mountaineering and guiding quals including some to instruction level and he's got zero safety margin to start with and he then pushes significantly beyond that. The admission he packed up the camp, getting everything wet prior to the attempted chopper rescue is a low level basic mistake showing how far he's operating beyond his skill level in this terrain. He has even admitted how idiotic he has repeatedly got into these situations and how lucky he is to be alive.

I fell through the ice one time and it was so cold out that by the time I got out and ran back to my truck all my clothes had literally frozen solid and I could barely move in them. I stripped down to my underwear quick and got in my truck. If I wouldn’t have had my truck there on shore to warm up in I wouldn’t have made it, being wet out in the cold is a bad bad deal.

I didn’t like it but it’s weird sometime we want to relive our Trauma, it helps🤷‍♂️ for some people, ignoring it helps them. What actually helped was my brothers friend brought us a pre roll, it was laced with acid, I relived all my traumas…. Crazy I could ride in cars again and understood my dad n it was jus crazy.
