Aoraki / Mount Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand. Its height since 2014 is listed as 3,724 metres (12,218 feet), down from 3,764 m (12,349 ft) before December 1991, due to a rockslide and subsequent erosion.[2] It lies in the Southern Alps, the mountain range which runs the length of the South Island. A popular tourist destination,[3] it is also a favourite challenge for mountain climbers. Aoraki / Mount Cook consists of three summits, from South to North the Low Peak (3,593 m or 11,788 ft), Middle Peak (3,717 m or 12,195 ft) and High Peak. The summits lie slightly south and east of the main divide of the Southern Alps, with the Tasman Glacier to the east and the Hooker Glacier to the southwest.
There was a large rock fall in 1991 that turned the summit into a knife-edge ridge and reduced the height of the mountain by an estimated 10 m or so at that time.[4] A/MC was measured in 2013 to be 3724 m, which is 30 m down from its pre-1991 rock-fall measurement
Aoraki / Mount Cook, often referred to as Mount Cook Village, is located within New Zealand's Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park at the end of State Highway 80, only 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) south of the summit of the country's highest mountain, also called Aoraki / Mount Cook, in the Southern Alps.
Being situated inside a National Park, it is not possible to own property in Mount Cook Village, however, because of the year-round operation of the hotel and motels, the village has a small permanent population of around 250. All buildings and facilities operate on concessions and leases from the government. The village has no grocery stores apart from a small in-hotel convenience store. The nearest supermarket is 65 kilometres (40 mi) away in Twizel, the closest town. There is a self-service petrol pump behind the hotel complex, however the fuel price reflects the remote location.

Walking on the sand is not advised as some of it has the properties of quicksand, although it is mostly glacial silt from the frozen mountains.

Mount Cook, Aoraki, cloud piercer. There is a saying in maori ‘he kapua kei rungai i Aoraki, whakarewa whakarewa' the cloud that floats aloft Aoraki, for ever fly, stay aloft! Mount Cook is often cloaked in clouds or mist; but today at lunch time were treated to a full sunny day!

擁有飽滿的爆發力，酷味十足的搖滾型男David Cook，成功於「美國偶像 American Idol」第七季脫穎而出，隨即發揮銳不可檔的驚人實力，打破全美告示牌多項紀錄，11首比賽中演繹的歌曲全數挺進流行單曲榜，同時成為Nielsen Soundscan自1991年統計以來，在當週百大榜中擁有最多歌曲的超級新人王，憑藉14首新歌齊發，勝出邦喬飛在2007年所保持6首熱門下載榜的風光佳績。庫克朝著音樂夢想加速前進，同替Post-Grunge版圖劃下新世代強勢音浪。
出生於德州休斯頓的庫克，從小就顯露對音樂的才華，國小二年級開始在學校耶誕節和懇親會上獻唱，擔任餘興節目的主秀演出。進階中學之後，庫克更參加了多齣音樂劇，奠定許多紮實的根基。於1999至2006年間，擔任地下樂團Axium主唱兼吉他手，曾入選美國獨立樂團競賽15強之一，並拿下2004年堪薩斯市的最佳隊伍，經過四張專輯洗禮，最終仍步上解散的命運。2006年發行個人自製大碟《Analog Heart》，雖然沒有資金宣傳，卻因美國偶像的曝光，成為亞馬遜網站上「最暢銷MP3專輯榜」冠軍。RCA唱片公司的執行總裁Tom Corson形容庫克︰「他是多才多藝的歌手，對音樂有著敏銳洞悉力，一位天生的藝術家、真正的明星。」
首張同名專輯《David Cook》請到葛萊美加冕的搖滾樂界超級製作大師Rob Cavallo（年輕歲月、艾拉妮絲莫莉賽特、珠兒）操盤。暖身作品〈The Time Of My Life〉，直奔Billboard流行榜Top3+熱門下載榜冠軍，闖出美國偶像第2季以來銷量最好的成果；陸續擔任Soundgarden和Audioslave經典樂團核心人物的Chris Cornell，與加拿大籍全方位才子Brian Howes（Daughtry、Hinder）聯手撰寫之〈Light On〉，深獲Entertainment Weekly好評道：「聽過兩遍就能深刻的印記腦海，很有可能成為主流大熱門」，直接空降Top17位置；包覆耐聽順暢音符的〈Life On The Moon〉，宣洩如同Creed、Nickelback等團標準美國正夯的Post-Grunge曲式；不讓Daughtry專美於前的散發自信和絕對魅力之〈Lie〉、〈Avalanche〉，倚著滄桑沉穩的嗓音，快速蔓延過耳不忘的感染力；〈Permanent〉則是加入鋼琴+弦樂淒美協助的感人抒情小品。庫克難以掩蓋的耀眼光芒，外加堅持對搖滾的極度熱誠，早已準備好站上國際舞台大展身手一番！
我喜歡他翻唱MIMI的"Always be My Baby"
