Mitre Peak Milford Sound, South island New Zealand.
The area is not actually a sound, Fiords are what we see.
Milford Sound is in the top 10 for most rainfall world wide.

Hell yeah, went snowboarding there with some crazy Aussies. They were pro skaters and only had snowboarded a few times, but were doing back flips and all this crazy shit for only being on a board 3 or 4 days. I took them down a little mogul run and they all tumbled down, couldn't really snowboard I guess, haha. Great guys though. NZ is great, so is Queenstown. Met people from all over the world there. What a beautiful country, looked like you lived it up down there. Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to return as well, and next time maybe in their summer, looks amazing.

When were you there?
Was there 33 years ago, have been there 11 times.
Spent 5 weeks there this trip 3500 miles driven.
Both islands south to north.
We hit the outskirts of Queenstown turned around way to touristy and Asian..
Asians have invaded NZ. Nothing against really but for the Kiwi's they cause situations, some are rude, most cannot drive, they are tolerated but a nuisance for some.
Southland is awesome, Central Otago, so many rivers and streams, spring fed creeks..

I went to the North Island in 96, went to Rotorua and did the National park, glow worm, Mt. Ruapehu thing. I was in my teens then and my dad was working there. I went back in 2005 to the South Island and spent all my time drinking and snowboarding, in my mid twenties then and ready to rage party. I would like to go back and actually take it all in now that I'm older and more mature, I appreciated it then but it would be on another level of appreciation now. I did mostly touristy things then, now I know better. But hey, it was still an awesome time and I saw some pretty spectacular things. The asians were moving in a little bit then in 05' I do remember some negative comments made by the locals and Aussies both, in NZ and Aus.

11 times! That's like two weeks on a plane total! My old man did the math the other day and thinks he has spent roughly 2.5 years on a plane traveling for work.

Jono Matla says he couldn't believe his luck when he managed to capture this meteor on camera. He was shooting a six-image vertical panorama with a 50mm lens when, while taking the final image, the meteor cut its way across the sky.

Taken in Hawkes Bay and over Maunga Taranaki, also seen in Hamilton and Wanganui.
Still in amazement of our wonderful adventure. So many fond memories of the people we met.
Everyone seemed so happy and very polite...
A whole another world down there.
Hoping for a return trip next year, wow just wow...
