Nelson Lakes National Park with Family

This is a family trip, wife daughter and I. Want to drive to St Arnaud on Saturday and get the water taxi up to Lakehead hut side. Wander to Lakehead hut and then for a walk up to Travers swing bridge and back. And Sunday water taxi back out. (and rid the hut of any density).

And the whisky is one of our favourites, Laphroaig 10yo.

Drove to St Arnaud and met up with Callum and his boat the water taxi. Not going to plan as the Lake is looking more like an ocean with a good swell coming in.
No water taxi today so we decided to walk up the lake to the hut. Normally a 1.5 hour wander for me, 2 hours for Tariga; and as a family with Duang it was a mere 3 hours fifteen minutes.

The fungi are up:


















We got here!
The mountains have a bit of snow on them.
Cranked up the fire cooked the evening meal and finished off with Laphroaig.

Spent a few hours getting dead tree branches back to the wood shed.  Then a good clean up of the hut, some lunch and wander off to the jetty for a boat ride back.

Density removal
There was a chunk of density at Lakeside, not anymore!


and our fish is happy...
