Day 39: Peter's Hill Road to Hamilton

Sunday 24th August 2014

The theme for the weekend was Marrabel and Dean's flag for today changed to an alternative, two-sided interpretation of that theme.

Nice one Dean.  The usual morning briefing and Morris Minus award threw up an interesting nomination and winner.  Steve Clift was embarrassed by his nomination for wandering ahead and losing his place as tail-ender.  Steve was reminded that the role of the tail-ender is to be at the back and awarded MM for this notorious lack of attention.  Note Carol Clark has given MM a fig leaf to protect his modesty.




The day was fine and sunny, with no breeze.  We walked 17.8 km through rural areas, road reserves, ridges and hills.  Peter's Hill in particular had beautiful views.  We met two other groups on the day.  The first was a couple who had spent the night at Marschall's Hut.  The second was a group of 7 or 8 guys who all walk sections of the Trail together regularly.
