Had a spin around 'Fernhill Loop' today. Was a nice wet afternoon, so I felt quite at home playing in the damp woods. Almost made me homesick........
After a nice climb in the woods you get back in the open and skirt around the top of the hill.
Just before you descend you get a wicked view down to Lake Wakatipu and the Remakables. Which were hiding in cloud today....
JACKS POINT
The Jacks point trail follows the lakes edge, heading south. You get some fantastic views and is a good 4hr xc ride. The remarkables were in full view that day, pretty immense things to have in the background......
The lake is the longest in the south island. Its a Z shape so, although you see alot from Queenstown, you really get an idea of its size the further along it you go.
Again, on the way back, you get an idea how long the lake is. And how small the town is. This shot has Fernhill in it, where i'm staying just now.....
