I have just read whynotwalk's prompting about what other forum members did on the long weekend (Lovely to meet you, Peter).
My walk did not end up being the one intended due to a ridiculous incident of biting on a cherry seed in between farewelling Peter and starting on the walk a few minutes later. (The wound created got infected and exacerbated by a boiling hot cup of chocolate from the Hungry Wombat. The burn blister was so huge it got infected [as well as the tooth] and I am still in pain and on antibiotics trying to get facial swelling down. Not fun).
So, I backed out of being with others where I might spoil their fun, and set off solo. First I had fun exploring a tiny walk by the Franklin (Keep out, warned the signs), and then Nelson Falls (You might SLIP warned the signs), until I got to Mt Owen, where I ignored a third sign warning me not to trespass, and climbed the worthy mountain, rather enjoying the anarchy of the day.
The second day was much less mutinous, but not lacking in adventure. In the morning I climbed Mt King William I, but unfortunately forgot my skates, but had fun anyway on the newly improvised rink at the top (and GREATLY enjoyed the decking of thick ice on everything). In the afternoon, I climbed Rufus with tent etc, figuring I'd make a final decision about sleeping quarters at the top. The mountain made the decision for me by suddenly snap freezing just as I was approaching the summit. Retreat was impossible, as it wasn't just the icing on top that froze, it was the whole thing. I retreated to just below the Gingerbread House and spent the rest of the night battling the ice stalactites attacking me in the tent. For more detail of my adventure, and photos, please turn to http://natureloverswalks.blogspot.com.au/ (Heading, Mts King William! and Rufus. Mt Owen is a different blog, below that).
Hope you enjoy
