Check out this website and track the trip your self Pole to Pole Run with Icetrek Expeditions. Eric is the only person on Earth to have Skied unassisted the worlds 4 major ice shelf's. Get behind this adventure and Pat Farmer's ambition to raise 100 million for the Red Cross to try to put an end to water borne diseases in the Third World.

Smitten merino and Pole to Pole Run

Smitten merino at Waterfall Bay

Smitten merino battles summer storm

On Saturday I drove my daughter Brooke down to Eaglehawk neck ( Tasman Peninsula) for a round of the Junior surfing Championships. I dropped her off at the comp with a storm brewing.

With Brooke's heat hours away it was a good opportunity to check out a beautiful walk to Waterfall Bay not far away.With rain beginning to fall and winds getting extreme I set off in smitten merino T-shirt and leggings. The walk is utterly spectacular following the cliffs until i reached a small creek which was beginning to flow nicely. A little track criss-crosses the creek and at one point runs behind the curtain of a waterfall. Utterly beautiful looking through the curtain at the rainforest. The creek finishes with a huge plunge over the Cliff edge. You must check out this walk. Even with driving wind and rain I was warm!!

Cheers
