Woah how epic! Is this near oakune? Or tongariro? I loved the north island so much, I think about it every day! I’ll be back soon I know it :)
I wonder if you can go in the hot lake ontop unless it’s tooo hot? I jumped in a glacial lake at the top of a mountain at Milford sound (Gertrude saddle) and almost died ha! It had just thawed out and was about 0 degrees, we all made it out though :) not again!
It’s near Tongariro. That big glacier in these photographs is in Tongariro National Park, that is where the skiing club is.
These photographs are taken from Waiouru, which is a military area.
It is not allowed to swim in the lake on top. It’s too hot , and according to news reports its temperature is consistently increasing.
