Hiking Tails
Adventures on the trail (mostly) with Shanti dog
Cloudy Hill
Inspired by the views from our trip up Mt Lyndon and the cars parked at the turnoff to Porters Ski Field and trying to guess where the occupants had headed, Shant’s Mum decided to take him for a walk up Cloudy Hill.
Mt Lyndon revisted
Shanti revisits Mt Lyndon with his friends - and is pleased to find less snow on this trip.
Hogs Back again
Shanti enjoys a short Sunday stroll on the Hogs Back Track, but starts to suspect that at least part of the reason for this walk was to scope out other (harder) walks.
Hamilton Peak
Shanti heads off for a trip up to Camp Saddle at just under 1500m but ends up on Hamilton Peak at 1922m. It turned out to be a much harder walk than his Mum had promised at the start of the day.
Broken River Ski Field
Shanti explores the road up to Broken River Ski Field and gets most of the way up Nervous Knob for a lunch stop with a view.
Leith Hill - unifinished business
It was supposed to be a hot and windy day so our team planned a walk on the Leith Hill Loop Track. It sure was windy, but it wasn’t in the high 20s, so we tried to get to the top of Leith Hill. Will nasty gusts and spillover rain coming in we retreated, with some unfinished business on Leith Hill. We will be back.
