Trip notes

From the club member's GPS log of the trip (1 February 2012), lightly edited, with people's names removed. Conditions may have changed since.

We crossed to the true left somewhere near the Fohn Saddle turnoff, but this probably wasn't necessary. The bush section down to Knob camp was slow.
