TimeOut

New Year - Good time for a walk in the country

 

But this walk wasn't quite as easy as the map suggested!




First we had to traverse this washed out junction of the trail



Walk on ankle-twisting round rocks



Leap (almost) across muddy trails and walk with a wet foot thereafter :-(



Descend extremely steep trail sections (this is the only way my wife can do hills after a Achilles tendon injury)



Avoiding dangerous wild creatures along the way



Tracks everywhere, and not just from snails.



"Lift Here"




Thank goodness I brought GPS navigation, as the foliage was so high we often couldn't see which way to turn



We did find the lake we were after.



So I took a picture to celebrate and we headed back up and over the ridge



When we got to the Ridge Line, we could barely see our Ridgeline



After another half hour of trudging alone we then could see it unaided



Maybe a little help from the zoom lens



We made it home just in time for lunch.
