New Zealand Notes
234 New Zealand N ales. NEW ZEALAND NOTES. THE summer of 1927-28 was memorable for a long period of fine weather, in consequence of which more ascents than usual were made. Premature opening-out of schrunds and crevasses, however, added to the diffi culty of the greater climbs; a great advance was made in the use of crampons. Mt. Cook was ascended three times by th e Linda route : On December 19, 1927, by three guides- Vic Williams, A1f Brustad, J ack Pope-in 19 hours. This party established a record by being absent from the Hermitage only three days. On J anuary 4, 1928, by Mr. Eric Lewis, Vic Williams, and J ack Pope. On J anuary 12, 1928, by Mr. R. Aubin and J ack Pope . The low peak of Mt. Cook was also ascended , after long neglect, by Mr. B. Murray and Vic Williams. Two ascents were made of the Minarets and Footstool, and one each of Malte Brun, Hamilton, and Darby. Professor and Mrs. Algie, with A1f Brustad and K. Grinling, made a very successful expedition up the Murchison Valley. They made the first ascent of Bell Peak (9250 ft.) and of two smaller unnamed peaks to th e north of it, and the second ascent of th e two peaked Mt. Hutton (9297 ft.). The first winter ascent of Elie de Beaumont (10,200 ft.) was made on September 13, 1928, by Mr.H . Coxhead and J ack Pope ; they used skis to Lendenfeld Saddle and crampons from th ere to th e summit. -
The State of Wilderness in New Zealand
Appendix 1 A NEW ZEALAND WILDERNESS PHILOSOPHY Section A Wilderness: New Zealand’s Heritage Each of us has our own concept of wilderness which is important to us. What is wilderness? Wilderness is part of New Zealand’s heritage. As a land the New Zealand ‘region’ has been isolated from the other continents for 80 million years—at the close of the age of reptiles. During this long period a natural landscape that is distinctively New Zealand in character has evolved. Man has been an element in that landscape for only 1000 years or so. Yet, in that comparatively short period, man has changed the New Zealand landscape at a rate rarely exceeded in other parts of the world. Since the coming of the Polynesian the primeval forest cover has been reduced from approximately 80 percent of the land to only 23 percent—and most of that remaining forest is confined to the West Coast of the South Island and more mountainous areas. Nature needs time for growing and sleeping, free from automobile fumes and massive tractors, away from the cacophony of snowmobiles and trail bikes. There are plenty of tamed wonders for all to goggle at through vehicle windows—we must also retain our wilderness areas where nature can develop in its own calm way and where only those humans who are prepared to walk and sweat a little qualify to go. Sir Edmund Hillary: Nothing venture, nothing win. What does the term wilderness mean to a New Zealander today? Images of Daniel Boone? The icy wastes of Antarctica? The wanderings of St. -

Geomorphic Hazard Analyses in Tectonically-Active Mountains
Geomorphic Hazard Analyses in Tectonically-Active Mountains: Application to the Western Southern Alps, New Zealand A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Hazard and Disaster Management in the Department of Geological Sciences University of Canterbury by Theodosios Kritikos 2013 Franz Josef Glacier, West Coast, South Island New Zealand “Human society is organized for a stable earth; its whole machinery supposes that, while the other familiar elements of air and water are fluctuating and untrustworthy, the earth affords a foundation which is firm. Now and then this implied compact with nature is broken, and the ground trembles beneath our feet. At such times we feel a painful sense of shipwrecked confidence; we learn how very precious to us was that trust in the earth which we gave without question. If the disturbance be of a momentary an unimportant kind we may soon forget it, as we forget the rush word of a friend; if it be violent, we lose one of the substantial goods of life, our instinctive confidence in the earth beneath our feet” by N. S. Shaler, March 1887 “The Stability of the Earth,” Scribner’s Magazine, Vol.1, No.3, p.259. Abstract On-going population growth and urbanization increasingly force people to occupy environments where natural processes intensely affect the landscape, by way of potentially hazardous natural events. Tectonic plate boundaries, active volcanic regions and rapidly uplifting mountain ranges are prominent examples of geomorphically hazardous areas which today accommodate some of the world’s largest cities. These areas are often affected by more than one hazard such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, landslides, tsunamis, floods, storms and wildfires, which frequently interact with each other increasing the total impact on communities. -
