Saturday 5th March 2011: A somewhat damp start, although I managed a team photo (time delay on tripod) before leaving. We continued up hill to Totara Saddle, then sidled above Roebuck River, with Mt Stewart somewhere on our right (never seen).

Team rest Roger_0602	Pelorus River after confluences of Mates, Richmond & Echo streams Keith_6717	Roebuck Hut on Pelorus River Ian_2236	Despite the rain ceasing, the track remained wet in the bush. The combination of sloping track and wet roots both covered with wet leaves made the track harder work for me.
Dinner was soup, Rogan Josh (beef & nutrela) with Basmati rice, followed by...yep, dried fruit.
