Wow. Another amazing video. Many thanks. Just love watching the kids especially Toby. You are such a character. Yes every family has one. Travel safe 🥶🤗🥶

[@leopardsgowild]

Thanks. That boy definietly has us laughing so many times in a day... He's such a loveable kid.

[@owenpotter2459]

Keep fit Leopard style! You've got to admire Toby's commitment carrying those rocks and ice all that way to drop off bridges. And getting round in shorts and tee-shirt with all that snow and ice. It's been colder where you are than the cool stores I'm working in. Thank The Lord for freezer jackets!

[@leopardsgowild]

Man it makes such a big difference when the sun is out nice and warm, when it went behind the mountain it dropped to 2 degrees instantly every day, so from 2pm - 5pm it would go to -1... good Jackets, gloves and warm hat, are essential

[@Scottygirlnz]

I loved this video! I am 66 and walked the Hooker Track a few months ago. After that we decided to walk to the Tasman Glacier view but didn't realise that it had 330 steps up (yes we counted them coming down). I have a knee replacement and a dodgy other knee but managed to do it. Sealy Tarn? Yeah na... It looked amazing though.

[@leopardsgowild]

Yea that Tasman view point is a bit of a sneaky climb aye, its amazing to think, that was where the glacier used to come to though right, Ice pushed all that gravel into that spot. Sealy tarn def a bit more challenging.

Awesome spot to stay 👍. Did you get the family of thirteen Kea come down for a visit❓🤔

[@leopardsgowild]

I was worried about the kea coming and eating all the Silicone on our roof, Didn't see any Kea this time. Haven't actually seen one since we've been in the South Island.

[@leopardsgowild]

Cheers mate, kids do pretty well living on the road in a small space especially in the winter. I think we'll all be looking forward to warmer and longer days in about another month, and then it will be a few more months till it actually happens lol...

[@allantaylor3288]

Toby’s in his happy place when he’s throwing things into lakes and rivers😂. You guys must be pretty fit with all he walking you’ve done to date.

[@leopardsgowild]

yip, he can't wait to smash ice again in winter, you'll see that in an upcoming video.

yea he's a crack up, I just laughed when I saw him walking up the hill with a slab of ice.

[@NZCaravanLife]

Finally no more worries about the batteries mate 😀 that DOC camp is awesome, just can’t use it as we have the dog 😢 Toby your a legend! All that ice just love it, hopefully by the time we are back down south again it’ll still be there 👍 such a beautiful part of the country..

[@leopardsgowild]

Yea it's incredible, really loved our time there... Maybe we need to head back there for a snow storm, since we keep on missing them... surely if it's gonna snow, it will snow there right?

[@mattbreingan7247]

That’s such an insanely beautiful looking area. Nice vid dude. Your kids are troopers too never hear them complaining.

[@leopardsgowild]

Cheers mate, pretty stoked to get these wicked days while we were up there. We do have the choice to save these areas for a good forecast which is nice as well. Complaining and camera is not a good combo with these kids lol, there are some complaints, but generally not much at all.

[@caravanstuff2827]

That's my next destination this winter... good to see you bit the bullet and brought a generator , i know it's not ideal for the environment but it's a must have when the sun doesn't shine...just a tip , don't carry a petrol can just keep the genie topped up , it's safer!!.❤️🇳🇿...ps 10klm in gumboots... Toby's a legend.🤣

[@leopardsgowild]

Yea mate, get in there... Looks like we got winter snow coming this week so be pretty stunning and icy in there by the weekend. Petrol can purchased mate, the tank on the gene is only 2 litres which only gives us about 3 -4 hours use, We've been using about that a day so need a refill. 10km in Gumboots or jandals is the prefered footwear, all our kids do have shoes though lol.

[@hughbond4584]

Another great video, thanks guys. We'll be up there at White Horse Hill in late August, so will be sure to include some of those walks!

[@leopardsgowild]

Cheers team, yes enjoy the area, will be so bloody cold I imagine in August, be lots of snow around which will be awesome. Hopefully you get some sunshine.

hey mate, we are running 520w of solar and 200amphrs of AGM batteries, I'm sure there is something drawing current somewhere in the caravan. we've done a few tests and somethings not right, haven't figured it out yet...
