Snowboarding & Splitboarding New Zealand Backcountry

Mountainwatch | Video

Just in case you wanted to know what New Zealand’s been like.

This month we explored all the usual and unusual sides of touring in NZ, from trekking through endless valleys and treelines, to big avalanches, a heli drop that didn’t quite go to plan, and of course, a whole bunch of snowboarding.

We start at The Remarkables to ride some of our favourite local zones, including Lake Alta, before heading off to Ohau for a longer hut mission in the Maitland Valley.
