New Track at Pine Valley

Well, I was cruising through google maps, as you do...

Noticed the track to Lake Elysia has had an impressive upgrade...

Must be a great track to be so straight! :)

Exactly why I never believe a track is where the map tells me, until I've actually seen it for myself. Though I must say this particular track would have made things a lot simple last time we were up there a couple of years ago, guess I just didn't notice it under all the snow. :D

Only power lines go that straight.
The only possible conclusion is that there is now a hydro dam at Lake Elysia and Pine Valley Hut is now fully powered. :roll:

I like the short holy walking on water section.
