Leaving Nelson I make the super long journey to the Franz Josef Glacier taking a couple of stops on the way in Wesport & The Pancake rocks. I book onto one of the full day trips up the Franz Josef. It's a fair old climb up and certainly cold when the wind starts to blow.

Franz Josef Glacier
Tuesday 12th May 2009
Leaving Nelson I make the super long journey to the Franz Josef Glacier taking a couple of stops on the way in Wesport & The Pancake rocks. I book onto one of the full day trips up the Franz Josef. It's a fair old climb up and certainly cold when the wind starts to blow.
The guides seem to be well used to the cold, dressed in short sleeve tops and some are even in shorts. Its a fair contrast to how they tell us to dress, 3-4 layers + water proof jacket & trousers...they are crazy.
