046: Routefinding and Bivvying on Mount Wakefield with Jinal Govind
Off the beaten track in Aoraki National Park is Mount Wakefield, between Hooker Valley and Tasman Valley. Jinal Govind shares his experience tackling the unmarked track with a bunch of mates, navigating the challenging terrain, routefinding with TopoMaps, and spending the night in bivvys under the stars. We talk about Jinal's outdoor adventures, stepping outside his comfort zone and overcoming fear. Self-employed as a wedding photographer, Jinal sometimes finds it difficult to find a balance between work and play, but he is always grateful for moments in nature and sharing those with like-minded people. He also co-hosts adventure photography workshops across New Zealand to share his passion of photography and the outdoors with other creative individuals.
