22.1 km
Cum 647.2 km
Camped: Schafer
Actually didn’t have a bad night’s sleep, which is refreshing. Woke up to the sun rising through the karri with nice peachy undertones in the sky.
Set off at 06h10, probably getting earlier with the earlier dawn. Was a little bit drizzly for the first couple of hours but then changed to a lovely sunny day!
Didn’t really find my stride today as there were so many fallen trees that I had to climb over or under or go around .
A bit of time spent alongside the river…very full, as with the others we have walked besides!
In getting to Shafer Hut, it must be said that, it is one of the better positioned huts so far. It is overlooking a dam. Very pleasant!
I was planning to stay in the hut, and being the first one there at 12h10, I could have. Two things made me change my mind. Lots of mice and rat stories in the red book and the arrival of 2 more walkers that would have our numbers be 6 in the hut at least… that’s a bit busy.
So I set up my tent.
