It was a bit frosty for biking this morning , so I grabbed my hiking boots and headed for the hills , although I didn't lug my slr and tripod with me ...
I did an anticlockwise lap of the lakes and boardwalk.
The first few k's are easy gravel path/tarmac

Maybe I should have brought my slr , couple of quick snaps and keep going



Pity , it would make a nice trail ride

Yes it really is cold today..


I was wondering if the creaking I could hear was my knees/hips ... realised it was the lapping ice at the edge of the lake

What a difference a year makes , the second photo was taken a year ago after prolonged heavy rain


Miner village , nearly under water last year too

Too busy gasping on the steep bit to take photos
The difficult bit is over

Slippery board walk or frozen bog , decisions , decisions




It's all down hill from here

Divert from the main boardwalk to a steep descent onto a handy forest trail..




Home and time to put the feet up
