Day 20

34k +1400 -1600 now camped on Mt Selwyn at 911 004 . Glorious day
with temp approx 20. First 10k was a road bash, then it went off
track for 7k to follow the Great Dividing range. Only problem with
that is that it is up and down like a yoyo! After that it has been
rough fire trail but still big rises and falls so the total for the
day is one of the biggest I can recall. No wonder I feel a bit weary.
Managed to find water at the end of the day so I am set for the next
36 hrs even if I see no more water. Made the pack heavy though-figure
it tipped 15kg getting up here. Have decided I clearly like high camps
- as I seem to seldom camp next to water source.
Off to see the Viking tomorrow.
