This video is of a flight from Wanaka to Milford Sound in winter, as viewed from the front seat next to the pilot. It passes Lake Wanaka and the Treble Cone ski area, goes up the Matukituki Valley, past Mt Aspiring and the Olivine Ice plateau, over a wilderness of snowcapped peaks and forested valleys, before entering Milford Sound from the sea and landing at the tiny airstrip at the other end.

An unforgettable flying and skiing adventure on the longest glacier in New Zealand. This video gives an overview of the day I experienced - the flight up the glacier, the ski-plane landing, the views at the top, inspections of crevasses and ice towers, a helicopter flight up to Hochstetter Dome, some of the skiing, and the return ski-plane flight.
