Day 4 of Munda Biddi - back in the saddle
Distance: 62km
Elevation gain: 764 metres.
From the town of Dwellingup to the Lake Brockman Tourist Park
A bit over 6hrs in the saddle from 7am to 1pm.
The initial plan was for a 30km day but I arrived at the hut campsite at 9:30am because the trail was smoother than expected. Felling good I pushed on to Lake Brockman.
Not long after leaving the hut, the trail turned to the more typical pea gravel and progress slowed. The last 32km were more difficult and took 3.5 hrs, also because of the hill climbs involved.
I took it easy and drank lots of water and kept cool by drowning my shirt in the odd creek crossing.
Suspension bridge over the Murray River.
One of 3 tunnels on the Alcoa Mining lease.
Creek crossing - nearly came off...it was deeper than I expected
My bed tonight, a tent of sorts at Lake Brockman Tourist Park.
