Having done the Tranzalpine to arrive at Greymouth, we opted to rent a vehicle and drive through Arthur's Pass on route back to Christchurch. Some pretty cool scenery as you might imagine. Some of the locals in Greymouth recommended that we stop at give ourselves a bit of tramping (hiking) toward the local version of Monument Valley. Though John Wayne did not ride by searching for Natalie, we saw our share of buttes and spires to justify the hike. Drake was particularly interested in doing more of a vertical climb than both his father and the instructed trail suggested. Well, Drake's sense of adventure won out. Marc, sensing that soiled trousers were worth impressing his son, commenced the climb. Drake scrambled up easily leaving Marc to question his own route, sanity and safety. Enclosed is a photograph Alden took of his brother's shoes. Not bad stuff from the guy!
