South part of south island

We did a great hike on the southern part of the south island. Well that is once we found it. The directions were really sad. It was a really long nice day hike. We hike around for about seven hours. The car park area was really interesting because it had a lodge with a shower, and that was much needed.
After we took our shower we headed out towards Intercargrill, along the "scenic highway". Funny thing about the scenic highway is that most other roads we had been on where way more scenic. It was very strange. On the map it appeared that it would be near the coast, but most of it was just far enough away where you could not see the ocean.
By we had made it all the way up to Dunedin and had decided to head for Elephant rocks and get some climb in. We pick up a hitch hiker along the way. David was really funny and he lives in Dunedin so we made plans to meet up with him on his way back to Dunedin from Christchurch.
Spent a really nice day climbing and then met up with David and headed to his house in Dunedin. It was a complete hippie crash pad. Good fun. a bunch of really nice guys. It was nice to have a home base for a while. We hung out there for Three nights. The funny thing is somehow we landed in the middle of a "roommate situation". Stacy and I are sitting in the living room when the one roommate comes home and starts telling the other roommates that he is moving in with his girl friend. It was really strange. They did not seem to care that we were there, but it got uncomfortable so I excused us. It was really funny.
So yesterday we went climbing at Long Beach. Great climbing area right next to the beach. Today we went back to do some bouldering in the caves and now we are headed back to Duntroon to do some climbing. So here are a few more pictures.
Later.
