But I have learned a lot. I explored the two main (and only) attractions of the area:
The first was a one hour hike up slippery steps to a million-year-old cave system, the Rawhiti Caves. Pretty impressive.
Also pretty scary, standing right underneath them and having "WARNING: DO NOT LINGER AT CAVE ENTRANCE" signs nearby.
The second was the Grove.
This particular part right here should have Stairway to Heaven playing in the background.
Odd stone formations made for an interesting hike.
Some beach bike rides to pass the time...
All in all, glad to be headed down for the glacier, but also a little nostalgic about this little piece of paradise in the middle of nowhere. Goodbye Pohara.
