Coopers Knob is near the Southern end of the Crater
Rim Walkway. This panoramic view shows the port
of Lyttelton on the left side of the harbour. Quail or Otamahua island in the
centre of the harbour.
The horizon behind the Trig Station (the black
and white man made object in the foreground) is the
Southern Alps, around 80km distant.
On the small peak to the right of the trig
station you may be able to see the radar dome which is responsible
for air traffic control over the top of the South Island.
On the opposite side from the harbour, looking South you can glimpse
Lake Ellesmere (Te Waihora). Mt Herbert (Te Ahu Patiki) is the
large, flat topped, peak to the right of the harbour, the peak to
the left of this covered with gorse is The Monument.
You can also catch glimpses of the summit
road, Living Springs and Teddington as well as the Canterbury
Plains.
