When I was learning geography at high school we learnt about the 3 volcanic mountains just south of Lake Taupo in the north islands central plateau. Driving past them on this day on our way to Taupo made me want to take a closer look at at least one of them (not including skiing on Ruapehu).
I decided that at the end of the year I want to do the Tongariro crossing – an 8-10hr trek across the top of one of them. It will take me all year to get fit enough, but I think it’s a great goal to work towards. I shouldn’t really announce my goal on the internet in case I don’t end up following through with it, but I’ll see how I go.
