Todays mission was the 'Moonlight track', a big loop that goes around the back of 'Ben lomond' and 'Bowen peak'. Which are the hills behind Fernhill and Queenstown.
Yours truly looking down towards 'Shotover Creek' with 'Queenstown Hill' just behind us. A beautiful little bit of single track to start the climb!
Justin relaxing while I take photo's! How good is that singletrack? It goes on forever and has some fun descents filled with rocks and ruts. Just don't look down to your right..........
After a good bit of singletrack followed by viciously steep fire road climbs we found ourselves by 'Moke Lake'. Perfect day for a swim to cool us down!
Looking back from 'Moke Lake' up the 'Moke Creek' valley.
More views of 'Moke Lake'.
After leaving 'Moke Lake' you descend to 'Lake Dispute' With fantastic views of the surrounding valleys.
The final descent gets you back to 'Lake Wakatipu' and the fantastic '7 mile' bike trails. Just the final road ride back to Queenstown to do!
Todays mission = 5hrs + around 50 km
