Up In The Brindies

Today:
Purpose: Research
Distance:  22.35 km
Time: 1 hr 58 mins 45 secs
Rate:  5' 19" per km
Weather: sunny, temp 25 degrees, humidity 25%, wind NW 15 kmph
Week:  35.35 km,  Jan:  22.35 km,  Year:  22.35 km

I don't really think any one would have had a better start to the year than I did in the mountains today.
I was up at Mt Ginini to reacquaint myself with the fire trail down to Bulls Head.
A short detour into the recently rebuilt Mt Franklin chalet, it's a beauty. Plenty of pictures and stories outside but the door were locked, so no inside inspection.
Only a couple of other cars about, all just enjoying the scenery & the great outdoors. It was also a bit cooler than at lower altitude with the high point being at just under 1800 metres above sea level. Canberra is about 600 metres above.
With so much down hill, it was easy travelling on foot with only a bit of up getting close to Bulls Head.
A very enjoyable day out, so lucky to have this available even if it does involve a drive.
