We had originally intended to do a full traverse of the Arthur Range
finishing at Federation Peak - but we had a lot of bad weather on the
Western Arthurs and when were reached Pass Creek at the base of the
Eastern Arthurs - more bad weather was forecast. So we bailed out early
and spent a few days at Mt Field National Park.

days for the weather to improve. Other parties were waiting too.
