The Sky Piercer

Sam Smoothy invited myself and Nadine Wallner to hit the road in New Zealand with the objective to climb and ski the East Face of Aoraki, Mt Cook. Easy, right?
Not so much, with the weather in New Zealand proving a serious issue and our three week stay getting shorter and shorter the likelihood of us being able to complete the mission was looking… not likely at all.
