A cold wet start to the day, and only a short walk required,
so a morning off in and around Methven, before returning to the
trail early afternoon. A very pleasant walk on the Lake Hill
Track right on the edge of Lake Coleridge – a lone sheep under
the willows was quite startled when I turned up. Across some open farmland with views of the lake, before joining a minor road, that took me off to the top of Coleridge Arboretum with its large conifer collection.
Down the hill parallel to the intake pipes for the power station, and then at the bottom followed a vehicle track all the way down to the northern bank of the large Rakaia River. Still cloud and rain about, but some good views of the mountains on the other side. Back to Methven for the night.
