Kepler Track to Luxmore Hut

Kepler Track from Tyler Grubb on Vimeo.

Its been awhile since I updated here. Partly responsible is my supposed shock-proof, water-proof, freeze-proof camera somehow freezing, breaking or getting water in it during my weekend at Awakino Skifield. I've relied on my GoPro HD Hero for most of my time while abroad and have put together another video story of a trip on the Kepler Track. A big group of nine of us hiked up to the Luxmore Hut on a rainy Friday morning. We fooled around with crampons and ice axes on Mt. Luxmore, climbing up a tight couloir to the summit. A couple of us also explored the underground river of Luxmore Cave. By the time some snow flurries swooped in the next morning, we were on our way back to the van and home to Dunedin.
