点评:Great to get on the water in our 2nd attempt to do so. We tried on a previous visit to Mt Cook but, sensibly, Charlie and Co cancelled that trip due to gale force winds.
This time we had a perfect day - and a great guide. He ran the group through kayak basics strokes at cafe, then drove us over to Tasman glacier, where we had 20 min walk to launching point. We kitted up and were run through risk mitigations before getting on the water.
With risks associated with icebergs (eg: rolling or breaking apart) you can only go close to smaller ones and have to view larger ones from further away. The guide managed a mixed group of experienced and less experienced kayakers well. The outing was approx 9-2pm from end to end with a good 2 hrs on the water. Thanks for the chance to kayak on a glacier lake!
翻译:很高兴在我们第二次尝试这样做时上水。我们之前尝试过参观库克山,但明智的是,由于强风,查理和公司取消了这次旅行。
这次我们度过了完美的一天 - 以及一位出色的向导。他在咖啡馆带领团队完成了皮划艇的基本动作,然后开车带我们去了塔斯曼冰川,在那里我们步行 20 分钟即可到达出发点。在上水之前,我们整装待发并通过了风险缓解措施。
对于与冰山相关的风险(例如:滚动或破裂),您只能靠近较小的冰山,而必须从较远的地方查看较大的冰山。该指南很好地管理了一群经验丰富和经验不足的皮划艇运动员。郊游从头到尾大约是晚上 9 点到下午 2 点,在水上度过了 2 个小时。感谢有机会在冰川湖上划皮划艇!
