Katie, Jeremy, and I went for a walk into Hawdon Hut for the evening. The theme of the trip was coldness. The walk in was ok as long as you kept moving and we did get patches of sunshine. We lit the fire in the hut but struggled to get it to produce much heat. It was sulking. The wood was too wet. We played Katie\u2019s monopoly card game in the evening and ate many marshmallows. This was all well and good. It cleared in the night and I was tempted to take photos of the stars and snow on the mountains visible from the hut. Laziness got the better of me though and I went back to sleep instead.<\/p>\n

Jeremy and I went for a scamper up towards Walker Pass the following day. Little bits of snow were falling as we left the hut. We retreated before we got to the pass. It took three hours to walk out and we drove back to Christchurch stopping at the Sheffield Pie Shop for our second round of pies on this trip.<\/p>\n
