Great country. I did a heap of hiking in the Buller/Stirling area back in my youth. Miss it.
Ha, I did an overnight hike to Mt Stirling when I was maybe 16? Really want to do the full Alpine track from Walhalla to Canberra one day (several weeks).

Would love to do more. Hiked mostly Stirling/Bluff/Howitt high planes and the Cross Cut Saw to Mt Cobbler. Where all Man from Snowy River filming was done. Would love to go futher up to Hotham and Feathertop.

I did a hike in Switzerland when I was in Interlaken as I didn't have enough money to get the train up to the top of Jungfrau.

I'm glad I did the hike instead, you get to see a lot more on a hike than a train but I was knackered at the end of that hike.

I need to ask… did you yodel?
 
I just hiked to the cupboard for another biscuit if anyone was interested.
I hiked to the fridge for wine… same same but different 👍🏻
 
I remember doing the Summit walk as a kid. I'm guessing that you took the Main Range track to Kosi and the Summit walk back.
Exactly. Main range walk was the highlight. Last few KMs of the summit was "one foot in front of the other just keep going you're almost there" stuff. Snowy river in view was mighty fine though.

I'd have to lose a heap of weight before even considering doing the main range walk these days.

If anyone is doing one of those giant cross-referenced logic puzzles we used to do in school - exactly 1 of these is correct.

I love how Chipmunk and MWPP got genres they absolutely hate and I got a song I'm probably giving my 5 to 😅
