Hello… I haven’t really finished sorting the photos from Sundays hike… but as you can see, we had a fabulously amazing sunny winters day up at Cradle!
We had planned to do the Face Track but things were a bit slow going up the Horse Track (Me with my ‘Up’ issues)(and early morning issues) and enough ice on the track to slow things up as well
Plus, the last bus out was at 4pm and we wanted to be heading home before the temps dropped and we hit black ice.
We hit a few small patches coming in and its not a nice feeling.
So we ducked back across to Marions and went down that way.
Still a great day out!
And guess what??
We booked in to the Overland Track again!!
25th January!
Sharon and her husband Paul have been wanting to do it for a while and had decided to do it as a family for Paul’s 50th birthday.
That would be in May so I had a chat to them and said they would enjoy it more in summer – longer days, less chance of snow and – more importantly – ice!
Booking for the next season opened at 9am this morning.
They invited a few others in on the adventure (us included – I didn’t just crash the party) so they went in and booked first thing – then rang us to tell us what date they got. The 24th Jan. Jeff got online and couldn’t get the 24th so booked us in on the 25th. We can do a double on the first day and catch them up I’d say pretty easily.
No-one else they invited could lock in bookings. 🙁
By 9.30am all of December, January and February were booked out!!!
Its always kind of like that, but now even worse with the reduced numbers allowed to start each day due to covid.
Anyway… its a while off but am pretty excited!
Hope your day has been great!
Cheers
