So much energy at the start of the trip!
Buttongrass and shrubs on the Loddon Plains
My first view of the Cap... SO FAR AWAY!!!
About 12:00 the first day... hot already
Many steps were cut out of logs like this!
In the rainforest from the first lake to Barron Pass
View as I topped out over Barron Pass - incredible!
After Barron pass, my next view of the cap
View back to barron pass from the summit:
Another view from the top
View looking over the cliff- BASE jumpers were heading up when I got back to the road - that would have been a sight! Not sure where they land, though... no bare ground anywhere!
At the top, I had this moon rising on one side,
Back to Barron Pass, and VERY HOT by now...
Halfway out on the last day, the clouds lifted a little
And SUCCESS! back to the road... that was a great feeling!!!
My first view of the Cap... SO FAR AWAY!!!
About 12:00 the first day... hot already
The first hut, which I stayed in on night 3 - as it poured buckets of rain!
Lake by the hut:
Many steps were cut out of logs like this!
In the rainforest from the first lake to Barron Pass
View as I topped out over Barron Pass - incredible!
After Barron pass, my next view of the cap
View back to barron pass from the summit:
Another view from the top
View looking over the cliff- BASE jumpers were heading up when I got back to the road - that would have been a sight! Not sure where they land, though... no bare ground anywhere!
At the top, I had this moon rising on one side,
and this sun setting on the other!
The top section of the trail DOES go straight up this!
The Cap from the lake
Back to Barron Pass, and VERY HOT by now...
Halfway out on the last day, the clouds lifted a little
And SUCCESS! back to the road... that was a great feeling!!!
