Fox Glacier is located on the west coast of South Island. First, I took the Alpine Landscape Train from Christchurch to greymouth, and the intercity bus from the railway station to Fox Town. It took me a long time to cross the South Island from east to west. In fact, if there is no train scenario suggestion, go directly to the bus, then there is no special scenery along the mountain landscape train, train tickets are also expensive. The back section of the bus has been driving in the mountains, the mobile phone is in a signal-free state all the way. If the self-driving breaks down and calls for help, the closer it gets to Fox, the more rain it will get and the more heartbreaking it will be. The bus goes first to Franz Josef and then to fox, where the town looks bigger and busier and there are glaciers. Fox is really small. Introduced below, usually go to these two places will go on a glacier hike, and if it rains, helicopters are absolutely useless. I estimate the probability of rain over there. It's not raining in a few days a year. The guide over there says that the annual rainfall in town is 6 meters, and the annual rainfall on the glacier is 11 meters. So we are prepared for it, and we may regret it if we go. At home, helihike was booked and the first shift was booked on the same day. If the weather was bad, we would change it later. I was ready to give up the rainstorm that morning, but then suddenly it stopped raining and the sun was shining. And even the Sun waited five minutes before his flight to confirm that he could fly. Fortunately, my class was the only one that flew that day. When I got there, it thundered and rained. The latter two classes were cancelled. If it's sunny, glacier hiking must be very addictive. I survive in the wilderness above under the light rain. The glacier is still beautiful. The ice cave is blue and pure. Helicopter hiking is recommended as a rare experience. Fox Glacier is connected with the rainforest. I remember that there are small woods in the evening just a few steps from the town. There are many glow worm fireflies in them, many of them. Don't turn on a flashlight when you watch them.
