NZNI - Ardmore to Taupo -part1

Featured Replies

Continuing my fantasy tour I've hitched a ride in a Caravan to Taupo. Cloud permitting we'll be cruising at 8000' on a simple dog leg that will take us out to the Firth of Thames and then straight to Taupo.

 

Leaving Ardmore

 

 

Climbing turn with Takanini coming into view

 

 

On over Takanini and Papakura....

 

 

Setting my dog leg course from 4000' overhead the field.

 

 

The Mangatangi reservoir down there and beyond the hills the Firth of Thames

 

 

Looking back we see the Crosseys, Wairoa and Upper Mangatawhiri reservoirs... good VFR reference but not names for a flaky RT?

 

 

The Firth of Thames and the East Coast Road with Kaiaua and Miranda easily identifiable

 

 

continued in parts 2 & 3
