Westland Wonderland, the movie!

You can only see a small snippet of the full 35 minute movie in the clip below but the full movie can be seen at the Alpine Adventure Centre in Franz Josef.

I can’t describe in words how I felt when I watched this movie but mostly it was a feeling of pride at living in Wonderland as a Coaster.

This production took over 100 hours of helicopter flying by the Scott Family. It captures the most stunning display of South Westland’s natural beauty that has ever been recorded. The cameraman was Dean Trelle and the pilot was South Westland legend, James Scott.

You can only see a small snippet of the full 35 minute movie in this clip but the full movie can be seen at the Alpine Adventure Centre in Franz Josef. This one makes you so proud to be a Coaster living in the wonderland of ours.
