Hike with Me: Solo Hiking in the Tararuas | 25m steel ladder

So I tried to do the Steel Ladder between the twin peaks at the end of last year - but had to bail. And I did the same thing from the east instead of the west....a real shambles if you ask me but whatever. I did the ladder and that's that.

about me:
Hi, my name's Éowyn. I'm a filmmaker, editor & photographer from New Zealand.
In 2022 I solo traveled around France & Italy for three months, and spent a few months living out of a van in the South Island of New Zealand. Join me for some fun discussions / films around travel, introspection and I suppose what they call 'coming of age' (at any age). I hope you'll find some information or inspiration in them that is useful to you!
Thank you for being here :)
