George Sound Track, 6 - 9 February 2003

A WET trip in a wondeful rain-forest, on one of the remotest tracks in Fiordland. We walked in and out from Lake Hankinson to George Sound, on the George Sound Track, after carrying the engine of Adrian's boat over the narrow neck separating Lake Te Anau from Lake Hankinson. We also carried an aquanaut, which we used to explore George Sound to the foot of the Alice Falls. Party: Adrian Kerr, Craig Lyon, Gaël Varoquaux, Tim Bishop, Danilo Hegg.
