View of New Pelion Hut from Mt Oakleigh, Overland Track, Tasmania
I was somehow convinced (after the 17km hike) to climb Mt Oakleigh, which ended up making the day a full 9hrs of hiking. Soooooo worth it. The view from the top was incredible. In this pic, you can barely see New Pelion Hut through the trees (top centre). We hiked across the plain through the trees on the left, then had to pick a way through the tarns and small rivers that ran all through the area before ascending the mountain.
