We spent a cold night and woke with the alarm at 5:20 to find that it was still quite dark and we needed a torch to get breakfast and start packing up. By 6am it was lighter but unfortunately we were in mist and clouds for the first few hours of the morning, missing out on some of the views as we hiked along an open path around the mountain top.<\/p>\n

Spot the hiker above<\/em>!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Then it was down again to a river crossing in the valley.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n OG was hiking a little behind us and caught up to us when we were having a break.
