On this trip - we went up the Tasman Glacier - visiting De La Beche hut on the way and after a few days at Tasman Saddle Hut we returned via the Murchison Glacier.

John was recovering from an injury and he joined us a few days after we started.

Higher up we found very large open crevasses that we could not easily cross so we retreated. The next day we walked up to Tasman Saddle Hut.
