Horace is our second cabin - named after mountaineer, Horace Walker (1838–1908). Horace was an English mountaineer who made many notable first ascents, including Mount Elbrus and the Grandes Jorasses. The Horace Walker glacier and Horace Walker hut located in the back country near Fox Glacier, in the Southern Alps of New Zealand, are named after him.
