YIC has just returned from an excellent 7 day tramp in the Nelson Lakes area. He tramped the Travers Sabine Circuit. This route took him along the Mt Roberts ridge to Lake Angelus Hut where he climbed Angelus Peak (at 2037 m this is YIC's highpoint to date). After dropping into the Sabine valley, he visited the beautiful Blue Lake, before climbing over the Travers Saddle and tramping back to the finish at St Arnaud. The weather was glorious apart from the last 24 hours when YIC got just a tad damp (to put it mildly). He is now back in Nelson where the sun is shining again. Tomorrow he is heading to the Tablelands area for 3 days walking and running.
