Seeking the Light is the story of climbing New Zealand’s 24 highest mountains, those peaks in the Southern Alps/Kā Tiritiri o te Moana that rise above 3000 metres. Written by Wānaka-based mountain guide and adventure photographer Gavin Lang, the account of each climb is illustrated with his breathtaking, world-class imagery. Inspiring and exhilarating, each individual story captures the tension and drama of mountaineering in Aotearoa, but then is vividly brought to life with Gavin’s outstanding photography. Seeking the Light is a beautiful and original contribution to our mountain literature, a must-read for anyone with a love for wild high places.
