Andrew Barker's Southern Traverse. Information and pictures about my solo tramp from Cape Farewell to the bottom of Stewart Island. I completed the Stewart Island leg in March 2010. I'm 56 now and would really like to knock off a Fiordland traverse west of Lake Te Anau before I get too old! My wife is not keen at all on me doing this solo. If anyone is interested in joining me, please make contact. Wednesday, January 30, 2008. Crossings over 2000 Metres. In order from North to South. Ada Pass to Boyle 262.
