It was back in July during the very cold 🥶 days of winter this year. I was away to the Westcoast for work, and Springs Junction was one of the sites I did on my way, driving back to base in Christchurch.
I recall finding it quite difficult to drive up to the cell tower site even though I could see it from the road. Finding the track that leads up the mountains or hills is one of the daily challenges.
I eventually found the track and drove up the steep hill to the top, and these were my views on that morning at 07:58
The golden sky with morning for was quite a beauty that was worth the drive up.
