What an epic Year 12 Geography trip this year! Covid-related issues led to an unusual winter adventure instead of an autumn trek. Icy conditions on the crossing meant we ran with our plan B – a traverse of the Tama Saddle; from Whakapapa to the Desert Road. That’s 20+ kilometres, and the keen beans added another 4km of hills to go check out the Tama Lakes. Not bad for a -4 degree morning start and a 9 hour day including some fieldwork on the way. Once again, the Springs-Waiōrea geographers were outstanding ambassadors for our community and a great time was had by all.
