We'd rather not meet you in person this spring!
Tramping, climbing or hunting? Get good advice on where you are going, get the latest weather and avalanche forecast, take the right gear and know your limits. Check river, snow and weather conditions at www.softrock.co.nz. Don't forget to let someone reliable know where you are going and when you will be back.
Have fun and be safe out there, the APRES team.
APRES currently has 21 active members, with the majority based in Arthur's Pass Village (not bad for a Village of only 54 people).
