Woohoo!

I love it! What a vantage--making Aspiring look almost Himalayan in scale! Very exciting...

Addendum:

Do you know the relief we are looking at in the pic? It looks 2000+ meters!

Re: Addendum:

Actually it could be 2000 meters.

Aspiring has a height of 3027 meters. The surface of Lake Wanaka is at an altitude of 277m, and the footings of Aspiring on the foto are not more than 500m above it, I would guess.
