Well it's that time of the year again (though a bit early), where you have to be careful going for a walk. Especially if your yappy dog is off her leash!

Taken a couple of hours ago. Prob similar to others but it bumps the thread all the same.

I can only surmise that Manly "God's country" is really a load of bollocks from the lack of Manly pics in this thread!!

Hiking is stupid....
Hiking at altitude is incredibly stupid!

Anyway, what I did today:

Didn't that wuss hat go.

It did, I had it in my back pack (I was wearing a wider brimmed hat) but I was too buggered to even pull hat out and tell him to pose!

So...the wuss was me!

.....my legs hurt.....

Well done , onwards and upwards, Everest beckons......

Kosciuszko beckons!

 

[globaleagle]

Kosciuszko beckons!

I checked up on that....the hike was only about 50 metres lower than Mt Kosciuszko!

I've often snowboarded from heights greater than aust's tallest mountain.

And..... my legs still hurt! 🙁 sheesh
