Once I've spent 5 days in the tent stucked by a really hard storm at the end of May - for only one hour the Light was stunning! The storm continued for a week, but at the 5-th day I was totally out of food and water, so I had to move anyway and packed my tent during the hard rain and the wind. I'm not sure where you will find internet at the north island, me didn't touch a computer for 51 days, but that was a good rest, actually. Take care!

The light will be awsome now, be sure! Hiring a car could be a clever thing, but I did the whole trip by walking in the mountains and hitchhiking on the road, that's how I found many good places - by talking with the local drivers. I had 35 kg in my backpack, but thaw allowed me to stay at totally wild places with the reindeers for sometimes a week.. but for theks like these it's worth to start and end the hike at different sides of the mountain, that would be a bit hard when you're with a car. You'll see great places and awsome people, I wish you a good Healt and good Light!
