Cradle Mountain

The weather didn't look too flash on the way into Cradle Mtn this morning, misty & low cloud
 
Cloud on the mountains (almost looks like snow)
 
 


Stopped to have a look & this is what we saw !!!!
 
 


By the time we arrived @ park entrance & caught the shuttle bus to the lake (7.5km)


We were blessed with gorgeous sunshine, the lake & mountain were sparkling


Cradle Mtn & Dove lake
 


Headed off to walk the Dove Lake loop 6kms -  2 hrs

Love the reflections
 
 
 


View from Glacier rock at the start of the walk
 
 
 


The track winds around the lake to return along the western shore for any easy 2 hours 
of pure magic & deep satisfaction !!!

I had a slight hiccup walking along the boardwalk & had to face my demons
a very small green snake was enjoying the sunshine & I had to wait for him to slither off
NOT HAPPY JAN !!!!


Closer view of Cradle Mtn
 
 


Getting towards the end of the walk, not that easy, loose gravel pathways, steps


The most photographed boat house in OZ
 
 


Quick snack inside the boathouse
 


Ye ha we made it in 2 1/2 hrs. 
Well done !!!
