Another morning, another blue sky, I’ve left the hut maybe 15 minutes ago, this is the view looking back

The Forbes Mountains to my left

As I work my way up to the east of the valley, towards the Rees Saddle

Looking back towards Mt Clarke

Approaching the Rees Saddle

Just one more climb and it’s downhill from there again

On the saddle, once more a look back to where I came from

Snowy Creek which leads up to the Tyndall Glacier, not going in here

I continue down the Dart Track instead

Well, after a selfie that is

Ok, 2 selfies

Looking back south towards the saddle and Snowy Creek

Looking north, Marion Tower in the distance

This area is really beautiful

Lots of little waterfalls adding to the Dart River
![](https://edwinov.com/edwininnz/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DSCF8958.jpg)
I’m glad there’s a bridge over the river (it will be removed during winter)

Beautiful!

And I’m fortunate enough to enjoy the view
![](https://edwinov.com/edwininnz/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DSCF8976.jpg)
Seriously, what’s not to like?
![](https://edwinov.com/edwininnz/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/DSCF8977.jpg)
Again looking back towards the saddle and Cleft Peak

At the Dart Hut! That’s enough for today
