my original plan after descending round mountain in the early afternoon was to find a nice spot to camp before ascending jagungal for new years eve. but somehow I found myself at the Tumut River crossing before 6 and with plenty of daylight remaining figured i may as well keep going. I followed a well defined footpad upstream from the road all the way up to the summit. There was a flattish grassy spot just big enough for my tent about 20m from the summit marker. the views were amazing as late afternoon sun faded into dusk then bright stars in a pitch black sky. what a lovely spot.

in the morning i had a quick breakfast at the summit then bush bashed down hill to the road. i brewed a coffee at o'keefes hut before the big road bash along farm ridge road. when i got to the river i was too knackered to take of my shoes or find a spot to rock hop across so has wet feet for the final slog back to the car.

All in all a fun adventure and great way to roll over my 500th GCA
