Lake Pukaki

Amazing photo opportunities. Amazing location. The views of Mt Cook are truly spectacular. The visitor centre can be busy worth a lot of tourists. The blue (turquoise) colour is due to fine silt particles, or glacial flour, in the water. This is a result of glacial erosion. The silt is so fine it does not settle to the bottom quickly, remaining in suspension in the lake water.

Mt Cook, the tallest mountain in New Zealand, helped Sir Edmund Hillary to develop his climbing skills in preparation for the conquest of Everest.
