Australian man dead after falling down a ravine on Fox Glacier, New Zealand

AN Australian man has died after falling down a steep ravine in New Zealand’s South Island.

The 66-year-old man was on a hunting trip with his son in the Fox Glacier Valley on Wednesday when he fell down the ravine located 1800 metres up in the Westland Ranges.

The New Zealand Herald reported the pair, who arrived in New Zealand on the weekend, became separated around midday.

The son is believed to have found his father at the bottom of the ravine about an hour later. He suffered serious head injuries.
