Guide Pete Ozich was fantastic at helping family to learn to ski powder, steer us through the crevasses and pick the lines through our 2 runs, showing us the attractions while having a great safety concious approach. Many thanks also to Hannah and others in the Mt Cook team , who suggested we change dates to get the best weather and were flexible at helping us get our flight connection in and out of Mt Cook. This was probably the greatest family adventure experience of of our lives ...fantastic weather, powder snow, and the fun of the skiplane flying landing on the upper glacier ..you have to do it!!
