]]>"My girlfriend and I spent March 2020 in New Zealand (luckily right before the whole crazy Corona business started) - in one of the last locations we visited (Taupo), we bought two of those handy wild kiwi packable backpacks. Then we hurriedly had to leave the country (we promised to come back to finish our tour some day).
Anyways, I just wanted to tell you that your packable backpack also comes in handy on the other side of the world - in the Austrian Alps (see image). I took it with me on a 4 day trip and used it as a day pack for climbing trips. Pretty cool, for a 4day trip including climbing gear you need a big and stable backpack, for climbing tours you needs a light one that doesn't get in your way - enter Wild Kiwi bag, easily added to your normal luggage it becomes a nice little feature for day trips."
It was a huge success and a combined total of 467,865 meters were climbed between the 17 teams over the month. One runner climbed 5685 vertical meters in on day which took him 17 hours and covered 63km on Mount Te Aroha! Here is a photo of our overall winning team ‘Scabies Scramblers’.

Our travel towel is super absorbent - absorbing 4 times its weight in water, and fast drying - wrings out almost completely dry! It's also light weight - about 1/4 the weight of any other towel and soft and durable with increased comfort and strength.
The towel size is 60x120cm, and it packs away into 16cm carry bag so it's ideal for hiking and traveling.

Kiwis for Kiwi is a national charity that supports community led and maori led kiwi conservation projects whose vision is to "take kiwi from endangered to everywhere".
Thank you for supporting Wild Kiwi® as it has enabled us to support the Otanewainuku Kiwi Trust. This year through the sales of our bandanas along with a cash donation we were able to donate over $10,000 to the Trust.
