Out of bed and off up to Begley saddle.
We went up and up and over a Saddle. Did not look like the saddle, but we proceeded and ended up in a high valley parallel to the Travers. We did not know it and the valley we went into was the Travers. Spotted a marker then hit a track. Where there should be no track! We ended up on the Travers track, so back to Upper Travers hut.
