A beautiful morning here at the Cobb Reservoir

The reservoir, looking towards the Peel Range west of here

You can tell it’s still early by the long shadows
A little video of the reservoir

We go for a little walk, explore the reservoir

I’m no Sherlock but I reckon there were birds here

Looking east, sun is climbing, some cloud forming

Next we have a look at the Trilobite DOC hut here, it looks nice, also quite a few nice hikes in the area

We decide to do the short walk to Myttons Hut

Lovely views

Myttons Hut

Such vibrant colours

I don’t know what it is but some joker put some eyes on it and I think it looks really funny

On the way back from Myttons Hut

Before we leave the area we drive up to the stream feeding into the reservoir again and have another walk around

Because it’s just interesting here

Like those clear horizontal lines on the other side, what created them?

Same lines here, and at one point trees were growing here

At the Cobb Dam on the other (eastern) side of the reservoir

The spillway

The whole reservoir

Along the Cobb Dam Road, it’s a loooong drive out

The Tākaka River

Map of today’s trip, we end up at the Mcleans Recreation Area next to the Motueka River
