It was a privilege to spend a day this past weekend with the ladies of the PRANZ - Packrafting Association of New Zealand meet at the Boyle River Outdoor Education Centre.

I appreciated the opportunity to be on the water with so many passionate and driven women - the new connections, the transfer of knowledge and information, the gorgeous snowy mountains of Lewis Pass, and all the laughter and beautiful colours sparkling bright. Off the water was equally special - thank you! 🩵 *Jess*

Hanging out on our days off.
Quick mission between laps - abseiling off the bridge to water level and ascending back up… a sweet opportunity to get all the kit out.
