ExtremeGreen: The canal road looking west
ExtremeGreen: there it is... Mt Cook in the centre of shot
ExtremeGreen: These blokes had about 10 dogs between them... hard to see from this shot. Mt Cook is in centre of shot.
ExtremeGreen: more mountains
ExtremeGreen: Looking south from the canal road
ExtremeGreen: Southern Alps behind Lake Pukaki
ExtremeGreen: These are the outlet pipes from the hydro canal. Shouldn't have been at this place but the photo opportunity was too strong!
ExtremeGreen: Another shot of Mt Cook
ExtremeGreen: At least the guy who took this knew how to use a canon camera... he had a 5d!
