Last day of the track, early start, looking back towards the Barrier Range<\/p><\/div>\n

Sandy Bluff, this is where I’m heading<\/p><\/div>\n

Cosmos Peaks on the true right of the Dart River<\/p><\/div>\n

The Dart River at Sandy Bluff<\/p><\/div>\n

Looking back at the Dart River, Dredge Flat and the Barrier Range<\/p><\/div>\n

From here on the track is through forest<\/p><\/div>\n

Where sometimes you have to pull yourself up using a handrail<\/p><\/div>\n

Or stop to look a waterfall<\/p><\/div>\n

It’s getting flatter, must be getting closer to the end of the track<\/p><\/div>\n

A river coming from Pluto Peak joins the Dart River<\/p><\/div>\n

Pluto Peak<\/p><\/div>\n

A string of little peaks leading up to Cosmos Peaks<\/p><\/div>\n

Looking back to Mc Bride Peaks in the middle<\/p><\/div>\n

Looking SSW towards Chinamans Bluff<\/p><\/div>\n

Mc Bride Peaks again<\/p><\/div>\n

The first sign of (other ) life in 4 days: a jetboat racing up and down the Dart River<\/p><\/div>\n

Almost at the end of the track, looking back: the ridge leading up to Cosmos Peaks on the right, the Beans Burn Track leads to the valley in the middle, Mt Chaos on the valley’s left, Mt Niobe in the clouds further back<\/p><\/div>\n

The ridge leading up to Cosmos Peaks again<\/p><\/div>\n

This is really only a few minutes walking from the end of the track, nearly there! What an awesome hike this was!!<\/p><\/div>\n

Track log of today, distance was about 17.5 km again and that took about 5 hours<\/p><\/div>\n

After all that walking the last 4 days I decided to do yet another hike tomorrow, to the Earnslaw Glacier. That track starts in the valley in the middle of the photo and leads up to the highest peak left of it<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
