SKYLINE GONDOLAS & ARROWTOWN CHINESE SETTLEMENT

This is one of the original cars, now on display, which we travelled in as a young married couple in January 1968, on our previous visit to Queenstown, 3months after the Skyline opened.
View from the top.

Can't do this in Kaitaia.


Skyline


Arrowtown in the winter. Note the blue sky and sunshine.



Hope there was no 6ft Chinese goldminers!




The top hut was used for storage.





One of the more robust huts.






1860's -1880's newspapers line the walls.







Frost 2pm








Frost, lots of frost.
