The biologist in me will have to do a bit of plant ID on these at some point.
A big day in ever respect
16 April, 41km: Dog Pool to Woolbales I left Dog Pool before sunrise and walked into a beautiful dawn.

Chance (not much of a climb - total height above sea level a whooping 159m). Great views of the grassy plains I’ve been walking through pretty much since Northcliffe. But even at the top still no phone reception- I haven’t had reception since Warren hut on Monday! The trail crosses through a lot of what looks like (and is described as) swamp and flood plains and the fact that there are lots of board walks and little bridges tells me it may not always be this dry... at the moment, it is dry and there are swamp bottle brush dotting the bush with red pom-poms everywhere. The afternoon was less easy walking, another 21km to the next shelter, through more grassland, but also sometimes pretty overgrown swamp that looked like...
