Take a snow cat and a home made ice cream company and put them together at Mt Hutt and this is what you get. An ice cream van snow cat style!
In May this year, we introduced you to George from Vanilla Ices and his plan to serve ice cream on Mt Hutt.
On Saturday, the Vanilla Ices snow cat drove up to the slopes of Mt Hutt, and together with Air New Zealand cabin crew Kate Dunbar and Mitchell Harvey we gave away over 1000 ice creams.
A bluebird day with a layer of fresh snow ensured a constant demand for a refreshing treat topped with brownie chunks and hot fudge sauce.
WIN
Australian visitors to New Zealand this winter will also have the opportunity to win back the cost of their return Air New Zealand flight.
Each week from July 1 to August 30, one winner will be selected from those who have tagged a photo or video of their ski trip on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter with #MeanwhileInNZ.
