Not far from Lake Coleridge village we park the car, nice view of the mountains I normally fly over

Early on in the track, it’s well marked, we’re going to Tribulation Hut

Rachel with a full backpack

It’s been too long since I did this

One of the mountains of the Mt Hutt Range, I think it’s Steepface Hill

Even when there are no orange poles the track is clearly marked

What a day!

Cows keeping an eye on us

Without the sun it’s getting quite chilly and we still have a long way to go

Can you spot the hut? Dead center of the photo, light gray. Not far to go now

Though we first have to cross the Swift River

In the hut. It’s winter. It’s cold!

Nice clear sky with stars and a moonlit hut

Us trying to sit still during this 20 second exposure

This morning, after a cold night: rolled oats for breakfast

We decide to walk further south towards Cookies Hut before heading back

We wasted a lot of time trying to find a place to cross the Swift River without getting our feet wet, in the end we took out boots off, crossed the river and put the boots on again, wet boots suck

Cookies Hut! We made it. Unfortunately no cookies in the hut

At least this one has a fireplace, unlike Tribulation Hut, not that it’s of much use to use as we’re just having a rest here

Time to head back

Back towards Tribulation Hut, Cookies Hut in the distance

Rachel doing very well

We grabbed the rest of our stuff that we left in Tribulation Hut, put it in our backpacks and are now on our way out

Stunning views

Redcliff Saddle

Out final descent back to the car
