Wow four days without rain. That must be a world record for Milford Sound. Some people say it's best viewed when it's raining and the heavier the rain the better it is. I guess that you can feel the power of water when it's pouring down the cliff faces and the rivers have been turned on to full power. Bro I'm in love with Fiordland. I watch everything I can find on this region and your film is one of the better ones I've seen. Congratulations. Is Carrie going to do a video where she talks about her experiences. Her feelings and thoughts as you guys travelled along the track. It's jaw dropping and holds you in awe every where you look and the view changes around corner. I would imagine that coming from a virtual dessert in California to this place that is virtually untouched by man, a region that is full of life and still evolving from a jurassic era with the most amazing views that opens your mind and pulls you in to the realisation of nature and what the planet is supposed to be like, would be mind blowing to the power of 10, as it's mind blowing to us who have grown up in NZ. It's on my list to visit in the rain when coincidence allows when I'm down that way. I wanna feel the power of the water which has built this beautiful region. And it's so good for the soul. Congratulations bro a film well made and an experience you'll never forget. Arohanui

I did the Milford Track 20 years ago this month. I enjoyed watching you two and listening to your observations. I too did the public huts and took the slight detour to the falls. I'm 80 years old now and have only in the last two years (due to back and Achilles tendon problems) stopped hiking. When we went over McKinnon (formally known as Mackinnon) Pass we (the whole lot of us from Dumpling hut) had to be guided over it by one of the New Zealand park service employees because a weather system was moving in. We were in white out conditions all the way to the top and spent less than an hour in the shelter by which time the weather (blinding snow storm) had vanished. When I was waiting for the boat at Sandfly Point I had to wait in the small shelter ... sandflies were really biting! It was a glorious 4 days! Thanks for bringing back the memories.

Thank you so much for taking us along with you. My husband and I loved it. Our tramping days are over so it was wonderful to experience vicariously what we can longer do ourselves.
We are so blessed to live in this marvellous country and we must never forget it!

The bird song is exceptionally beautiful. That’s what makes these walks so spectacular to do .

It was rainy but the walk I shared with my dad was magical.I won’t forget that day.I moved to New Zealand for now 6 years with my partner and we became residents few months ago of our paradise on earth, Aotearoa New Zealand. Thanks for sharing

My mother walked the Milford Track in her 60's. I smiled all the way through this film remembering her love of nature, her courage and determination. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful adventure ❤

I remember as a kid the first time we drove in to Milford Sound as we came out of the Homer tunnel The feeling I had just gone back in time and Dinosaurs were going to come out of the primeval mist and still felling the same as an adult.

As a born and raised kiwi, I haven’t hiked the Milford Track, but after flight cancellations in July, our family did jump in my husband’s Ford Ranger and drive there from the Bay of Plenty. 6.5 hrs to Wellington, Picton ferry, then 10 hrs to Queenstown. So much fun in the South Island, so utterly beautiful.

At 75 even though I have always wanted to do this walk I dont think I would make it now! I have done many beautiful walks in the UK, Spain and Greece and your video of this walk, which may I say transported me for 30 minutes into another place, peaceful, birdsong and epic waterfalls was so wonderful- thank you. ❤🌻❤

Spellbound by the Nostalgia of this track. it bought an unusual quietness along with feeling of wonder. Absolutely incredible, I have never seen such thing before. especially overwhelming when at peak, clouds disappeared, . An unexpected change, it was very moving moment for me. I have no words to speak, after watching this...Masterpiece

'I visited the South Island in 1983, it was winter and I was on a tour so we crossed over into Milford sound by bus but I was amazed by the views I heard about the track and wanted to go back one day but on that same trip I hurt my foot and the injury eventually led to an amputation, then I was diagnosed with MS so my chance of doing this track is gone but I thank you so much for showing to me and you beautiful description- it has meant a lot to me

Well guys I've been waiting for this and you didn't disappoint. I had to cancel my trip last month but heading there in Dec. I've been waiting over 20 years to do this hike. Was reluctant to watch in some ways because of spoilers but so glad I watched. Tears running down my face. I didn't realise how important this particular trip is for me following in my late father's footsteps. I gave the guided trip to my Dad for his 59th birthday. C-19 fate now has me on the trail exactly on my 59th birthday... and 4 years to the day of his passing. Thank you both for giving me the courage to push on as this is not going to be easy... but so worth it. Just gorgeous cinematography. Thank you again for sharing 💚

WOW!! You are magic Alex. That was absolutely wonderful. Watching the trek is great, but having your narration adds another very emotional layer of experience. There were moments of tears, of joy, and of pure appreciation for you, Carrie and nature all coming together to create this beautiful experience for us to accompany you and have the experience the best way we can. You need to work with Lonely Planet or something like that. What a great job, perfectly created. Thank you, thank you 🤗, I can say from a viewers seat, all the pain you and Carrie went through was 100% worth it .... Just magic✨✨

That was a bellbird you heard on day two. You also captured a beautiful south island robin with black and grey plumage and the parrot was a kaka. Beautiful video, your narration is superb and the visual storytelling amazing ❤
