Day 2 included a circuit walk, in beautiful clear weather, to the top of Mt Jerusalem for views in all directions, lunch and a swim
in Lake Tyre, a descent to Lake Thor, and return to camp via Zion Vale
Day 3 dawned with atmosphere. We walked past Dickson Kingdom Hut, through Jaffa Vale, along the northern shore of Lake
Ball and Lake Ball Hut, and to the northern end of Lake Adelaide for lunch in intermittent rain and in the company of heaps of
leaches. We found a protected campsite near Stretcher Lake and after a short evening walk in the mist were in bed by 6.00pm
to achieve eleven hours sleep.
Day 4 we returned to our cars, drove to Deloraine for lunch, and then onto Swansea for two nights.
Day 5 involved a longish day walk past Mt Amos to the southern end of Wineglass Bay, returning via Hazards Beach and rocky
headlands of Coles Bay. On Day 6 we headed to Maria Island which has been previously reported by Lynne.
