Another tough day for #KarelSabbe on his search for the #FKT
The crew and Karel were very excited to cross the Rangitata river (7km) after reaching the highest point of #TeAraroa earlier. They don't know how many water they will find in the river

#KarelSabbe is on a very tough part of #TeAraroa. Not easy for him but neither for the crew. Henri had to hike in and out for 33km to refuel Karel on his #FKT
It's Jack's birthday and wanna see his dad today 🤞
