        Lake Matheson in Westland National Park, New Zealand 
      
        
        
        To walk around the edge of Lake Matheson, with its towering trees 
        dripping with mosses and  
      vines, is to step back into the original primeval rainforest, experiencing this land as it has been for ages past.  |
