Day 2: Surveyors to Munro

Breakfast was pancakes with rehydrated maple syrup before we donned our packs and started the days’ 11 km hike.
Things started to get pretty spectacular after climbing Arthur’s Peak and hitting the cliff tops with views back out to Crescent Bay.
The trail then headed back into the forest before arriving at our next hut “Munro” where we were met by Ranger Renee.
A downside of Munro was a long walk to the pit toilets. The upside ? The incredible deck looking over Munro Bight and out to Cape Huay. Also - the only showers of the trip - bush showers where you hoisted a canvas bucket of water for a luxury 3 minute downpour !
Dinner night 2 we got stuck into to dehydrated stuff. Mexican beans and rice for Russell and Ivy, Indian veggie curry for me and beef stroganoff for Henry.
