    Sunhat, sunglasses and sunscreen are more important than ice axe and crampons. You can get sunstroke and sunburn far easier in NZ and it can really ruin your fun, even in Autumn. Mountain Safety Council website will have some good info.

    I can second this, I suffered some heat stroke out tramping recently, ruined the whole trip. My own fault I should have known better.
    Happy Jack.
