Another morning, another blue sky, I’ve left the hut maybe 15 minutes ago, this is the view looking back<\/p><\/div>\n

The Forbes Mountains to my left<\/p><\/div>\n

As I work my way up to the east of the valley, towards the Rees Saddle<\/p><\/div>\n

Looking back towards Mt Clarke<\/p><\/div>\n

View towards the south: Cleft Peak<\/p><\/div>\n

Approaching the Rees Saddle<\/p><\/div>\n

Just one more climb and it’s downhill from there again<\/p><\/div>\n

On the saddle, once more a look back to where I came from<\/p><\/div>\n

Snowy Creek which leads up to the Tyndall Glacier, not going in here<\/p><\/div>\n

I continue down the Dart Track instead<\/p><\/div>\n

Well, after a selfie that is<\/p><\/div>\n

Ok, 2 selfies<\/p><\/div>\n

Looking back south towards the saddle and Snowy Creek<\/p><\/div>\n

Looking north, Marion Tower in the distance<\/p><\/div>\n

This area is really beautiful<\/p><\/div>\n

Lots of little waterfalls adding to the Dart River<\/p><\/div>\n

I’m glad there’s a bridge over the river (it will be removed during winter)<\/p><\/div>\n

Beautiful!<\/p><\/div>\n

And I’m fortunate enough to enjoy the view<\/p><\/div>\n

Seriously, what’s not to like?<\/p><\/div>\n

Again looking back towards the saddle and Cleft Peak<\/p><\/div>\n

At the Dart Hut! That’s enough for today<\/p><\/div>\n

Track log of today, distance was about 11 km and that took about 6 hours<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
