We walked out to lake Rakatu
Deer tracks on the edge of the lake
Wind blown tree over a stream made it easier to cross
These 3 wire cable bridges keep you on your toes
A lichen that blanketed the forest floor
Board walks through the swamp land areas of the track
Karen enjoys a hot chocolate by the fire
Getting into some reading
We stayed both nights at back valley hut, this neat little hut 2.5hrs from the lake.
After some rain the track was really boggy and wet
The top of the circle track
Looking out at hope arm where we walked on the previous day
A curious friendly south island robin came to visit while we made our lunch
Waiting for our ride back across the river
25 October 2010
Karen had labour weekend off so we headed to Manapouri where we got a boat ride across the river and explored all the Manapouri lakes tracks over 3 days.
