Pelion East in the snow July 08 (Warning lots of pics)

Some photos of our 3 day trip into pelion hut last week. July 3-5 2008
I was hoping to try out my new pack and sleeping bag in my week off, but after all the bushwalkers weather alerts earlier that week I was a bit sceptical about the chance of getting a bushwalk in.. But the forecast improved and we ended having amazing weather, although there was the occasional blast of wind and snow. The amount of snow around was incredible, we were fortunate to be able to follow the tracks of walkers ahead of us along the arm river track. Many places we were sinking upto knee height in snow.
