one of my favourite tramps

Dawn on Lake Sabine, Nelson Lakes

 After dawn we would hop in the boat and head out to the middle of the lake and take the quickest dip. Even though it was summer it was icy cold, not to mention the hugest eels one has ever seen swimming amongst the reeds!

Always a welcome sight to see the hut at the end of a long day's walk

Dusk would see the hunters bring in their kill. We were lucky enough to take some of this home.
