Lake Rhona - 5th-9th of April

I thought I'd share a few of my photos from this amazing place. Unfortunately we were forced out a little early as the last photo might suggest.

So unfortunately we were flooded out of our campsite, and having a first time walker with us, we decided that it was best to leave a day early, rather than spend the next night in semi wet gear, although I was still keen to stay.

Thanks Pazzar, looks like you got a mixed bag - the beach looks like Bondi with all those footmarks!
Did you get up out to Bonds?
Cheers,sbs

Unfortunately I didn't make it to Bonds. After climbing Reeds for the second time, hoping to head over, the weather closed in, and without carrying all my gear I decided it safest not to attempt it. Next time I will get there I hope
