When going night canyonning last Saturday night with 3 others, my Scurion light was absolutely fantastic. We have done Piha canyon many times during the day, but never at night. There seemed so much life with many wetas, spiders, some nice large eels, native fish and hundreds of fresh water crayfish (which stood out due to the reflection of their eyes in my Scurion lamp). The abseils were all rigged the easy way, using the pod mesh bag as a throw bag (too easy). Using the two loops inside, for tying the bottom of the rope and the top of the rope, you can just toss the bag off the top of each waterfall and the rope is deployed with ease. With the winter coming on, it looks like there will be some new challenges to do some more canyonning, if we can stand the cold.
