The Cradle Rocked me!
After a frozen evening at the backpackers, we woke to a beautiful clear day...doesn't get any better...for viewing Cradle Mountain which is in clouds 8 out of 10 days. Saw a wombat on the trail...they look like a small bear from a distance...and the lack of wind made for near perfect reflections on the water
Tassie
