Interesting write up and lots of photos. Great.

Those mountains would kill me. Just walking up them. Never been great on mountains even when super fit, and now, find them even harder.

Enjoyed your story, losses and successes. I think the photos of scary slopes doesn't do them justice, as photos rarely do. I can see thaat ridge is a knife edge ridge with a scary drop off or climb down an both sides.

Wlaking on snow and ice must be a huge change of terrain for a Territorian.

Everytime I read these stories, I remember my 'ambition' to "hunt every year in NZ" and another year has gone by. For me, I think forest sika might be a better start, than mountian tahr. But a chamois would be a real dream.

A practical question. What sort of weight do you carry in your backpack for the climb up?
