01/03/2008. Sam is off on his Ironman escapade but Steve and Stu have their own challenge in mind. A quick nip up onto the Tongariro south crater and then on and up Ngaruahoe. Winds went from a gentle zephyr to gale force and the temperature dropped from about 15c to near freezing in little more than a few minutes. The top was no place for a picnic and we only stopped for 20sec. 10 minute run down the scree slope to the bottom. Not a day for the tourists.
